Medical Video: 6 FACIAL MASKS TO SAVE YOUR SKIN
Sheet mask or this outboard mask is a great innovation in care and beauty products that emerged several years ago. How not, just by sticking a paper mask made of thin cotton containing a liquid formula, this product is claimed to be able to brighten, moisturize, and overcome fine lines on the skin of the face.
In addition, this one-time use and affordable price is a practical choice for women who don't need to bother like wearing traditional topical masks. However, what is the efficacy of this one face mask that is truly effective and safe for the skin? To find out more, let's look at the explanation of Dr. Debbie Palmer, a skin specialist from New York with 19 years of practical experience around use sheet mask.
What you should know before using a sheet mask
1. Not the same and cannot replace the benefits of traditional masks
Although the title is equally a mask, sheet mask not the same as the content and efficacy when compared with traditional topical masks. Paste paper masks also cannot clean the face and remove dead skin cells on the face like a topical mask.
However, most of these direct patches are packed with vitamins, amino acids and minerals, so they are good enough to be used as facial care products.
2. Keep using serum and other care products
Even though it has been filled with various types of vitamins and minerals, it doesn't mean you don't need to use other facial care products. Dr. Debbie Palmer said that the mask directly sticking from this paper cannot moisturize your face for a full day.
So, you still need other facial treatments such as moisturizer, sunscreen, or even a special serum to maximize your facial care.
3. A good sheet mask for moisturizing facial skin
Although many are claimed to be able to overcome acne, to reduce excess oil, and to deal with other facial problems, Dr. Debbie Palmer is only sure that this mask is most effective for moisturizing your skin.
Because, there are no clinical studies that have been able to prove that these outboard paper masks can treat skin problems. Fortunately, this mask is good for increasing water and oxygen levels on dry facial skin. So your facial skin will be soft and smoother after using this mask.
4. Less suitable for facial acne
Because this mask can make facial skin temperature change suddenly because of its water content, this mask is less suitable for those of you who have acne. This is because when the face temperature rises, this mask can actually increase the number of bacteria on the surface of the skin which causes acne to get worse.
It is recommended for those of you who have acne and oily facial skin, a trial first a day before wearing this mask. You do this by attaching a mask on the cheek skin, and see the results whether the skin becomes irritated or not. If the next day the skin is fine, please continue to use. But if not, stop using it and switch to another mask.
5. Pay attention to how to use it
Sheet mask This is basically available in just one size for all types of face shapes. Unfortunately, not everyone has the same face and curve as this paper mask curve. To wear it properly, please start attaching the mask from your forehead first, then down to the eyes, to the nose, then spread on the left and right forehead or cheeks. After that, match the position of the lips to the chin. Use it while lying down for more comfortable and fitting wear worn on your face.
