How to sheet mask–the right way

Sheet masks provide some of the rewards of a spa facial right at home. It is a nice and easy way to treat your skin to all kinds of essences and vitamins that will intensely hydrate, brighten, and even reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Sheet masks are now becoming a skin care staple around the globe.


One routine that I added to my skincare is the facial masks. I use it every day or every other day if I am too lazy. I love how my skin feels and look after a face mask session at home. Below is my tips on how to apply face mask.

1. Wash your face. Make sure that your face is clean and free from make up and dirt.

2. Apply toner. It cleanses your skin and preps your skin to absorb the next step. If you don’t have a toner you can skip this step. Your skin will still absorb the essence and vitamins from the mask.

3. Slightly open the pouch without removing the mask yet, squeeze the essence to your palm and apply gently to face. By doing this you know that the essence goes directly to your face and not in the mask. This trick will allow your skin to absorb the essence and vitamins better. Tear open the pouch and pull out the mask. If there is still an excess essence in the pouch apply it on your neck, shoulders and hands. Those essences are good for your skin so don’t let any go to waste!

4. Unfold the mask and place it on your face. There are sheet mask that will not fit on your face others may be too big or too small. In this case just make sure that the holes are aligned to your eyes, nose and mouth.

5. Leave it for 20-30 minutes. It’s up to you if you want to go longer or shorter. You can take a nap, read a book or just zone out.

6. There is no reason for you to wash off the essences because it is good for your skin! You can either fall asleep knowing you gave your skin a real treat or if you are heading out for the day, remember to add a layer of sun protection

One of the main benefits of face masks is that they offer a wide range of skin care benefits in one easy application. There’s a face mask for every skin type and skin issue you can imagine. Whether you use a cream or sheet mask, you’ll feel great during the process and feel good knowing you’re doing your skin a huge favor.

This is quite expensive but worth it. It has facial wash, one step pimple clear pad and the sheet mask.

Face masks are one of the easiest and quickest way to give your skin a big boost without a bunch of fuss. If you’re a babe on a budget, using premium skin care products can get pretty expensive. But, if you have the skin care basics like a good cleanser and moisturizer, you can save money on other pricey skin care products by using nourishing face masks. One thing I love about sheet masks is that you can take and use them just about anywhere.

There are lots of reasons to add face masks to your skin care routine.
