Important Peel-off face mask tips to remember
While Diy peel-off face masks are super healthy for a lot of your skin problems but that does not mean you should take them for granted and you should not employ some good measures to make the most of them.
Read on these helpful tips before latching on your favorite peel-off face masks.
1. Not all ingredients should be directly applied to your skin
While most of the DIY face masks have safe and skin-friendly ingredients in them but it does not mean all of them are equal.
For instance, Lemon and apple cider vinegar can be problematic for sensitive skin ladies which can not only lead to irritation but possible bleaching too.
So, don’t apply directly to your skin and instead, pre-mix them with another ingredient of face masks just to be on the safer side.
2. It is always safe to patch test your treatment
Since not all skin types are the same, hence not all skin treatments are 100% safe for everyone. So, it always makes sense to patch test your magical remedy on other areas of your skin except for face because you don’t want to walk around with a damaged face.
This is particularly crucial for your home ingredients since they have not been tested, unlike your over-the-counter skin products. This simple tip can save you from a serious allergic reaction that might be just waiting for you to make a mistake.
3. Use only freshly made masks
Don’t make a mask today and use it tomorrow or the next day. (For more about it read, how often you should use a face mask?)
In this way, the natural ingredients used to make your favorite peel-off face mask will remain fresh and bacteria-free which can cause quick irritation if you let its ingredients deteriorate over the extra hour they are left unused.
4. Check for freshness and quality of your recipe ingredients
This is another important precheck for effective peel-off mask treatment as you could pick that expired yogurt for your mask and end up doing more harm than good in the form of skin irritation and potential allergic reaction due to expired raw ingredients.
So, it is always a great precautionary step to check for freshness, quality and validity of your potential face mask recipe.
5. Wash your face before and after application with warm water
It is important to wash your face before and after with lukewarm water to effectively make use of your face mask. This is for good reasons.
Washing your face before the application of a peel-off mask recipe helps open up your pores to make the cleaning job for your mask easier.
As for washing your face after the usage and removal of face mask, this is good for the effective removal of any leftover impurities as warm water easily breaks down the leftover mask ingredients and properly cleans up our bodies better.
6. Use a good quality moisturizer and toner after removal of the mask
It is an additional step to further supplement your skin purifying efforts as a good quality moisturizer and toner would be very helpful in preserving and sealing in the nourishment, moisturization and other skin-friendly benefits of your applied face mask.
