Most facial masks include both deep cleaning and moisturizing ingredients in the mask. This allows the pores in the face to be cleansed totally, getting rid of oily build up and trapped dirt. This can help reduce or even prevent pimples. Additionally, many masks help slough off dead skin. The dead top skin is inert and lusterless. When it is lightly removed, the mask brings the top layer of dead skin cells off with it. This leaves younger, healthier cells exposed as the face's surface. This means tighter skin and a more radiant complexion. It can also reduce the look of fine lines and small wrinkles to carry out a regular facial mask.
Apply the mask in a circular motion until it coats the face. This is comforting and stimulating at the same time. Let the mask sit on your face for 15 to 20 minutes (although some are meant to be worn all night). Many women like to lie down and relax. The effect can be enhanced by the addition of candles or incense and some calming music. Finally, when it is time to rinse the mask, do so in cold water. This will help close the pores, protecting them against dirt and oil, and also energize your face.
