Do I need to apply skin care products within 30 minutes after applying the facial mask and cleansing my face?

Required.

Skin care products need to be used immediately within 30 minutes after applying the mask and cleansing, because within 30 minutes after cleansing, skin cells are in a state of cell expansion, which can make the skin better absorb skin care products. If you don't use skin care products for a long time, the previous work of applying facial mask will be in vain, so you need to start skin care work immediately.

After cleansing, when the face is still moist, quickly use a cotton pad dipped in lotion to gently wipe the face. Do not wait until the face is completely dry before replenishing water, otherwise the moisturizing effect will be greatly reduced.

Choose the toner that suits you according to your skin condition. Generally speaking, dry skin should use softening lotion, oily skin should use toner, and sensitive skin should use anti-allergic water.

Things to note before applying the facial mask:

Remove makeup. Even if you don’t wear makeup but apply sunscreen, you need to remove makeup. You can use a milder cleansing water or cleansing oil. Keep your face and hands dry, and gently wipe your face with a cotton pad. If you have sensitive skin, you can apply a mild makeup remover on it for 5 to 8 minutes, then emulsify it with water and wash it off.

For cleansing, choose a cleansing product with a mild texture, such as one containing amino acids, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin. Gently massage the entire face for 2 to 3 minutes, and finally rinse with water and dry.

It should be reminded that the temperature of the face wash water should not be too high and the cleaning power should not be too strong. It is recommended to use a cleansing towel or a good-quality cotton pad to dry your face. Ordinary towels will become hard after being used for a long time and are prone to breed bacteria, making facial skin more sensitive.

Time to apply facial mask:

For daily-use facial masks with the name "X Makeup" on the packaging, it is recommended to apply them for 15 to 20 minutes each time.

For medical-grade facial masks, those with the approval number "X" on the package, it is recommended to apply them for 20 to 30 minutes each time.

Because it takes too long, after the mask is dried or the essence is evaporated, it will absorb nutrients and moisture from the skin, causing fine lines, dry lines and even redness, swelling and allergies.

Facial mask selection:

Medical facial masks are between skin care products and medicines and belong to the category of medical skin care products. For problem skin, it can reduce skin sensitivity and serve as an auxiliary treatment for drugs; for healthy skin, it can reduce irritation, maintain normal skin barrier and balance, and resist external stimulation.

However, because medical masks are produced aseptically at pharmaceutical levels, without adding complex non-functional substances, the raw materials have been strictly screened, the safety and effectiveness of the products have been experimentally and clinically verified, and the mechanism of action is clearer, so It is several times more expensive than ordinary facial masks.

In addition, medical masks are medical consumables and are usually used as medical dressings, so they can generally only be purchased in plastic surgery or dermatology departments of regular hospitals.
