Are you hoping to regain a youthful, glowing complexion? Then it might be time to give anti-wrinkle masks a try. These masks are specially formulated with active ingredients proven to reduce wrinkles and replenish moisture in the skin. While they’re a great way to boost your beauty routine, some simple rules should be followed. Keep reading to learn the most important things you need to know before applying an anti-wrinkle mask!

Skin preparation

Cleansing your skin is very important for healthy skin. Unfortunately, many people don’t do it right or don’t do it at all. But if you cleanse your skin first, then masks will work 30% better. For oily skin, use a lotion or tonic to cleanse the dirt and makeup off. For dry skin, use water. Don’t forget to pat dry your face before you start with the mask.

Preparation of the composition of the mask

45% of allergic reactions in women are because they do not check the expiration date of the components of the anti-wrinkle mask. And this must be done. And it is desirable to use only natural ingredients. It is better to test for allergies in advance by applying a small amount of the mask to the elbow crook. If, after 15 minutes, there is no allergic reaction, you can safely use it.

Application

Use clean hands when putting the mask on your face. Start from the bottom of your face and move up in a massage-like motion. Then go from near your nose to around your ears, then from your chin to your ears. Put the next layer near your lips and eyes, but do not put any active ingredients near those areas. After you put on the product, breathe in and out a few times. Finally, you can lie down and close your eyes. Some masks may leak, so wear something to protect your clothes. Put your hair in a shower cap, and use a towel for your chest and shoulders.

“Lifespan” of the mask

On average, keeping the anti-wrinkle mask takes about half an hour. This time is enough for the active ingredients to act on the epidermis’s upper layers. But, if you feel a burning sensation or itching, or see redness, or hives, immediately wash off the mask with water. Just in case, take a light anti-allergic drug and consult a doctor if possible.

Removal

The most important thing to know about removing a mask is that you must never scrub it off. Scrubbing your skin can cause irritation and inflammation. Instead, use lukewarm water and gently massage the mask in circles until it has been removed. Finally, rinse with cold water to close your pores. After that, use a toner and moisturizer to finish off the process.
