Fabric face masks

Fabric masks have long been one of the most sought-after cosmetic products. They are popular in all countries of the world among women of different nationalities and ages due to their effectiveness.

A cloth face mask has a number of obvious benefits. Its individual packaging guarantees hygiene. Made on the basis of an active serum, it has a deep healing effect on the skin, moisturizing it and leveling the errors. This tool also refreshes the face, eliminating signs of fatigue. The sheet mask is convenient to use, since its use has no time limits, which is a definite plus in our time of high speeds and tight work schedules.

The undoubted advantage of sheet masks is their diversity, which allows you to choose an option that takes into account the individual preferences of a woman.

At the same time, cosmetologists agree that for effective facial skin care, one should carefully monitor the renewal of the assortment on the cosmetics market and make a decision to purchase one or another new product, taking into account the state of one's health, lifestyle and real financial opportunities. Therefore, for one woman, the best purchase is a pressed tablet mask, another stubbornly chooses dry masks, a third tries both disposable and reusable options, and most customers hope that cheap cosmetics will be no worse than expensive ones.

The European, Asian and American fabric masks presented on the cosmetics market are of good quality and fully comply with the basic requirement of hypoallergenicity.

In the products of American and European manufacturers, ingredients such as elastin, collagen, fruit acids. Asian products are famous for their traditional ingredients (lemon, pomegranate, rice, avocado, etc.), and exclusive high-performance components (colloidal gold, ginseng extract and various algae).

What a sheet mask consists of is generally determined by two factors: the type of skin for which it is intended, and the task before it. Manufacturers usually indicate the general purpose of their products on the packaging, but products that are similar in composition can vary significantly depending on what cosmetic tasks they are aimed at. Because of this, cosmetologists recommend following the rule: first you need to study the composition of the mask, and only after that buy it.

Here are examples of formulations that solve common problems. If the choice of a cosmetic product is dictated by the desire to rejuvenate the skin of the face, you need to know that you must purchase a mask with hyaluronic acid, which should also include retinol, glycerol, placenta extract and algae. Due to the tonic effect, this composition tightens the skin well.

For daily smoothing of the skin before applying decorative cosmetics, a product containing lavender, chamomile or hazelnut extract is suitable. If a strong therapeutic effect is required, for example, in case of malfunction of the sebaceous glands, it is necessary to use zinc-containing or vegetable masks with extracts of aloe, ginseng and birch. A reliable dermatological product that really removes excess sebum, as mandatory components may contain mint extract, Korean coal and, most importantly, argenin, which improves the supply of oxygen to the blood vessels of the surface layer of the skin.

Among the "exotic" options, one of the first places today is occupied by a mask with a snail. It includes snail mucus extract, the effectiveness of which is due to the substance it contains - mucin, which has amazing cosmetic properties. It not only nourishes, moisturizes and tones the skin, but also restores its elasticity, eliminates inflammation on it due to drying.

Colloidal gold, which has gained worldwide fame, is also considered an "exotic" component. It is included as an essential ingredient in masks, the purpose of which is to provide a sustainable rejuvenating effect. Performing intermediary functions, colloidal gold delivers moisturizing and nourishing substances to the deep layers of the dermis, thus providing a tightening of the face oval and smoothing the skin.

We are also indebted to Asian manufacturers for the appearance on the market of cosmetics of the substance EGF, which is in high demand. This substance, acting as an epidermal growth factor, belongs to the group of ingredients that work on the effect of rejuvenation at the dermis level: by restoring its structure, EGF stimulates cell growth and slows down skin aging. The use of EGF significantly improves the cosmetic parameters of the skin: age spots are lightened, the color evens out and improves.

Asian manufacturers have long appreciated pearl extract and skillfully use its properties in cosmetology. The envy of porcelain skin, typical of oriental beauties, is the result of the use of masks containing pearl extract, which, by protecting the skin from harmful ultraviolet radiation, contribute to its renewal at the cellular level.

A distinctive feature of Asian tissue masks aimed at rejuvenation is the presence in them of some components of snake venom. In the serum based on snake venom masks there is a special ingredient - a tripeptide. It is he who is responsible for the cardinal rejuvenation of the skin of the face - the effect of smoothing deep wrinkles and the almost complete disappearance of small ones.

Many women see the advantage of sheet masks in their inherent ability to save elusive time. With all the value of this property, one cannot but agree with the opinion of experts who unanimously associate the amazing popularity of these newfangled cosmetics with their effectiveness and functionality. In the morning, masks prepare the face for makeup application, and in the evening, before going to bed, they have a relaxing effect on the skin, fight dryness, tightness, and ensure its nightly recovery.

In the market of modern cosmetics, they occupy a leading position both in the segment of anti-aging products, in particular, for facelift, and in the segment of cosmetic products with a stable therapeutic effect, primarily for healing problem skin.

Among the wide range of sheet masks, several manufacturers have clearly stood out, to which consumers most often give their preference. These rightfully include Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Thai and Vietnamese manufacturers.

South Korean products Skinlite is represented by a huge arsenal of cosmetics, among which tissue masks with vegetable collagen occupy a worthy place. With impeccable quality, they are distinguished by a moderate price and efficiency in solving a whole range of tasks, from moisturizing and nourishing the skin to rejuvenating it.

Recently, the South Korean market has replenished with cosmetic products from a relatively young brand. Tony Moly. Its sheet masks for all skin types compete particularly well for consumers in ecologically unfavorable areas.

Traditionally, sheet masks occupy high positions in the ranking. Garnier, famous for their natural composition, innovative formulas, effective moisturizing and sustainable toning effect. Functionally similar products of the company are not inferior to them in terms of efficiency Oriflame: masks of this manufacturer provide express beauty procedures in full, contributing to moisturizing and deep cleansing of the skin, without causing complaints from consumers.

Products Animal Mask Russian company Vilenta is rapidly winning the hearts of lovers of new experiences: first, these masks attract attention with non-trivial packaging, and then with the efficiency promised by the manufacturer.

No less energetically fighting for popularity belarusian cloth face masks, which is due to their competitiveness and affordable prices. Their characteristic rich formula improves the texture of extremely tired skin, softening and nourishing it, restoring its tone and elasticity.

If only the financial side of the issue keeps you from buying a cloth face mask (the products of famous manufacturers are quite expensive), then you should think about whether you can make it yourself at home and do it as often as you would like. Many women successfully cope with this task. The only strict requirement is to strictly follow all the recommendations of specialists.

Among homemade whey recipes, those that are distinguished by their effectiveness, availability of ingredients, ease of preparation and safety are deservedly popular. Based on them, you can prepare a mask for oily skin, brightening and complex anti-aging masks.

The mask for oily skin is designed to solve a number of problems: narrow pores, treat existing inflamed areas, eliminate redness, as well as shine provoked by excessive work of the sebaceous glands. Its basis is calendula tincture, which anyone can buy at a pharmacy.

The brightening mask is primarily indicated for owners of oily and combination skin.: along with a noticeable lightening of freckles and age spots, muting unwanted shine, it visibly improves complexion. It is recommended to use it before bedtime no more than 2 times a week.

Using a blender, chop a little dill and parsley and pour 20 to 50 ml of hydrosol, sold in departments that specialize in home cosmetic formulations, into the resulting mixture. It is allowed to add other components to this composition, for example, lavender or witch hazel. Then an equal amount of yarrow decoction or non-carbonated water is introduced into the existing mixture and mixed thoroughly.

The rejuvenating mask loved by many is responsible for restoring skin tone and elasticity, for tightening the oval of the face. Its basic components - dry rose petals and elderberry flowers (1 tsp each) - are poured with boiling water in a volume of 100 ml, then this mixture is infused for half an hour, filtered. A tablespoon of edible gelatin is poured into 2 tbsp. warmed infusion, natural oil (1 tsp), an oil solution of vitamin E (no more than 2 drops) are added and brought to 37-38 degrees in a water bath.
