Sheet masks

How to get the most out of Korean sheet face masks?

Do you use sheet masks 100%? Do you know how you can get more benefit from a sheet mask?

3 tricks to get the most out of a sheet mask:

1. Apply a generous layer of essence, cover it with your favorite hand cream and put on gloves (cotton), now you have your own hand mask!

Thus, you will provide the skin of the hands not only with moisture, but also with additional nutrients that the mask contains. In addition, by applying the cream immediately after the procedure and wearing gloves, you will contribute to the occlusion effect, which will help the drug to penetrate better and enhance its effect. Ideally, use it throughout the night, but in just 15 minutes you will already notice an improvement.

If you need to repair your hands because they are dehydrated or rough, you should try this trick!

2. Put a few cotton pads or pads (the thinnest you have) in the container and close it very well so that no air remains. We usually make the container in several folds and fix it with some kind of clamp so that air does not get in.

Store it in the refrigerator and apply on your face as a mask the next morning.

We know it's tempting, but it's important not to reuse the same mask fabric, as once applied to the face, it dries out and picks up dirt more easily. It is much more hygienic to use the essence by soaking several thin cotton pads with it (and always make sure that it does not lose its effectiveness when stored cold, do not leave it on the dressing table!).

3. Use the rest of the essence to deeply hydrate your elbows, knees, or other parts of your body that need extra hydration, you'll appreciate it!

These areas of the body have a hard time, especially in summer, as they are open and prone to cracking or pigmentation, as the skin in this area is different: you just need to apply a little bit of essence residue on your hands and massage.

Your elbows, knees and other areas will be very soft and moisturized the next day, especially if the mask we used contains brightening ingredients like niacinamide or vitamin C!

Of course, remember that for any of them, not too many hours should pass from the moment the container is opened, since when exposed to air, the essence loses its effectiveness and can accumulate bacteria.
