Do I need to wash my face after applying a facial mask? Tell you the correct answer!

Many people have the habit of wearing facial masks. Most people will apply facial masks before going to bed at night. Applying facial masks has many benefits to the skin. The biggest benefit is to hydrate the skin and make the skin more delicate. It can also solve problems such as spots and acne marks on the skin. In particular, many people's skin is prone to dehydration, and dehydration will cause many skin problems, so it is important to replenish water in time. But everyone needs to be reminded that there are many things to pay attention to when applying a facial mask. First of all, you need to choose a suitable mask based on your skin condition. Secondly, you need to pay attention to the frequency of applying the mask and the duration of each application. In addition, you must also pay attention to relevant matters before and after applying the mask. So do you need to wash your face after applying the mask?

First, do you need to wash your face after applying a hydrating mask?

Do I need to wash my face after applying a hydrating mask? Of course you need to wash your face. Because after applying the hydrating mask, the essence and nutrients in the mask that the skin can absorb have basically been absorbed, and the rest are the essence ingredients that cannot be absorbed and the dirt adsorbed by the mask. Washing your face after applying the hydrating mask is not only to clean your face, but also to allow the skin to breathe better and absorb the nutrients and essences in the basic skin care products that follow.

Second, why should you wash the hydrating mask?

The reason why the hydrating mask needs to be washed is because the mask itself contains a large amount of essence and stock solution. If the essence and stock solution are not washed clean, and other skin care products are applied directly, it will affect the skin's absorption of other skin care products. And at this time the essence on the face contains certain skin waste and dirt. If you don’t wash it off, it will stay on the face for too long and easily cause sensitive skin. People with sensitive skin will easily develop red spots.

Third, what should I do if there is too much essence after applying the hydrating mask?

Generally, after applying a good hydrating mask, there is still a lot of essence left in the mask bag and on the face. At this time, it feels like a waste to throw it away or wash it off. In fact, after removing the mask, you can use your fingertips to gently massage your face back and forth and up and down to allow the essence to be better absorbed. Allow the skin to absorb as much as possible without wasting it. Generally speaking, massaging for 2-3 minutes is enough, and the remaining essence cannot be absorbed by the skin.

Fourth, do I need to wash the sleeping mask?

As people become lazier nowadays, more and more people like to use sleeping masks. After washing your face and applying the mask, you can go to bed and wash your face again the next morning. In fact, using a sleeping mask overnight is very bad for your skin. Sleeping masks are generally thick and in mud or gel form. If you don’t wash them off overnight after applying them, they will not only add burden to the skin, but also affect the skin’s breathing and metabolism at night. People with oily skin are particularly prone to clogged pores and acne.

Fifth, do not leave the mask on overnight

The reason why you should not leave a hydrating peel-off mask on overnight is that all peel-off masks can remove blackheads. If you leave the entire mask on for a long time without paying attention, it will be easy for the moisture that has just been replenished into the skin to be reabsorbed by the mask. Not only will it fail to remove blackheads, it may also make the pores larger. Therefore, the hydrating mask must be washed off after about 10-15 minutes. This will achieve the hydrating effect and the effect of shrinking pores.
