 You met your friend and marveled at the radiance and freshness of her face. A friend, being real, immediately shared a secret with you - it's all about the face mask. You rushed to the store, bought a mask, ran home and immediately applied it to your face. And what? Where is the promised and desired effect? Cheated by the manufacturer or girlfriend? Neither one nor the other. The effect promised by the manufacturer will manifest itself only if correct application masks on the skin.
A cosmetic mask is the easiest, fastest and most effective way to transform your face. What is the reason for the failure? The reason is that an important preparatory step has been missed. Any cosmetic mask (cleansing, nourishing, toning) is applied only to thoroughly cleansed skin. After all, if the pores are clogged with sebaceous secretions or particles of dirt, the mask will in no way be able to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin and will not have the proper effect. How to apply the mask correctly?
Stage one. Skin cleansing
How well you cleanse your skin before applying the magic mask depends on success. Moreover, ninety percent.
So, wash your hands thoroughly first. Then remove the makeup from your face with a special makeup remover lotion. Following this, wash your face with a facial wash or gel.
If your oily skin, use a scrub that will remove dead skin cells. Remember to apply the scrub to damp skin and rub in with gentle circular motions. The entire makeup removal and cleaning procedure should take one to three minutes.
Stage two. Steaming the skin
There are special devices for skin steaming procedures (ranges). All beauty salons are equipped with them. You can purchase a similar appliance for home use from a specialist retailer.
You can also use the steaming method used for centuries - hold your face over a container of hot water. It is even better if the bowl or saucepan contains not just water, but herbal decoction. After all, herbal decoctions not only improve blood microcirculation (and, accordingly, improve the complexion), but also significantly reduce the degree of irritation and peeling of the facial skin. For oily skin, a decoction of chamomile is suitable, and for sensitive and dry skin, decoctions of wormwood or rosemary.
The main task of steaming is to open and cleanse the pores of the skin from dirt and sebum. Remember to cover your head with a towel while leaning over the container of boiling water. After a couple of minutes, you will notice that your skin has started to sweat. Take 10 - 15 minutes and you will achieve the desired result.
A special cosmetic gel with a warming effect can facilitate the steaming process.
Stage three. Applying a cosmetic mask
Apply a small amount to the cheekbones, forehead and chin. The movements during the distribution of the mask should be soft and directed along the massage lines from the middle of the face to the temporal region. Move from the nose to the temples, stimulate the muscles of the forehead, making circular movements from the middle of the forehead to the bridge of the nose. Massage your cheeks and chin in a circular motion. Massage your forehead and the corners of your mouth.
All these massage movements will eliminate toxins and improve complexion. Finish the massage by stroking your neck to relax and energize at the same time.
Leave the cosmetic mask for the time indicated on the package. The effect of the mask will be greater if you lie down for this time and allow yourself to relax.
Stage four. Removing the cosmetic mask
Take two cosmetic pads or sponges and gently, trying not to stretch the skin, remove the mask from the face, moving along the massage lines. Rinse your face first with warm water and then with room temperature water. Blot your face to remove any remaining moisture. All movements should be gentle; you should not stretch and rub the skin.
Stage five. Completion of the procedure
If your skin is dry, wipe it with toner and apply a cream that works well on it. If you did everything correctly, then looking at your reflection in the mirror, you will probably say: "And who will believe that I have not been to a SPA resort?"
