What are the symptoms of facial mask allergy? Uncomfortable reactions to facial masks and solutions

Although facial mask is a skin care product, various chemical ingredients are inevitably added during its production process. If the user is allergic to these chemical ingredients, then allergic symptoms will naturally occur, leading to redness and itching of the skin, facial rashes, etc. In addition to allergies, applying a facial mask may also cause some other discomforts, such as stinging eyes and peeling skin. Below, we will introduce the symptoms and solutions of allergic reactions to facial masks.

1. Red and itchy skin

I have used it for functional skin or sensitive skin. Redness of the skin is due to accelerated skin metabolism and is normal.

Solution: Stop using all products, apply iced water to your face for 10-20 minutes, 3-4 times a day. You can use a compressed facial mask with iced water, or use a clean towel with iced water, then wrap it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for ten minutes, apply it on your face for 15 minutes, four times a day! Once your skin has recovered, you can continue using it!

2. Skin rashes

Solution: Stop using all products, apply iced water to your face for 10-20 minutes, 3-4 times a day. You can use button stickers with iced water, or use a clean towel with iced water, wrap it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for ten minutes, apply it on your face for 15 minutes, four times a day! Once your skin has recovered, you can continue using it!

3. Acne on the skin

Solution: Wash with foaming cleanser or sulfur soap before using a facial mask (for acne-prone skin, use once every 5-7 days). Using a facial mask will speed up metabolism and make our acne mature faster. These are all good signs. Be sure to wash after using the mask.

4. Eyes feel stinging or red and swollen

95% of the redness is caused by the mask being too close to the eyelids, because the eyelids are only one-third as thin as the facial skin, and some people are more sensitive to it.

Solution: When using a facial mask, just avoid the eye area. If the essence gets into your eyes accidentally, please rinse immediately with clean water.

5. Skin peeling

If you have ever used functional products or products with excessive lead and mercury content, using a facial mask will help your skin metabolize and eliminate the toxins! This is a good thing and normal, so don't worry.
