Fabric face masks

Fabric face masks

Fabric masks have long become 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.

Features

Tissue (sheet) mask is a compress in the shape of an oval, having rounded slits for the eyes and mouth. The base impregnated with serum is intended for a single use, however, the use of the contents of a single portion can be prolonged due to the remaining serum in the bag after testing.

Fabric face mask has a number of obvious advantages. Her individual packaging ensures hygiene. Made on the basis of an active serum, it has a deep healing effect on the skin, moisturizing it and smoothing out errors. This tool also refreshes the face, eliminating signs of fatigue. The fabric mask is convenient to use, since its use has no time limitations, which is an undoubted advantage in our time of high speeds and compressed work schedules.

Varieties

The undoubted advantage of leaf masks is their diversity, allowing you to choose an option that takes into account the individual preferences of women.

However, cosmetologists agree that in order to effectively take care of the skin of the face, you should closely monitor the renewal of the assortment on the cosmetics market and make a decision on the purchase of a new product, taking into account your health, lifestyle and real financial opportunities. Therefore, for one woman, the best purchase is a pressed mask-pill, the other stubbornly chooses dry masks, the third one tries both disposable and reusable options, and the majority of customers hope that cheap cosmetics will turn out to be no worse than expensive ones.

Composition

European, Asian and American fabric masks 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 in the quantitative ratio prevail ingredients such as elastin, collagen, fruit acids. Asian products are renowned as traditional ingredients. (lemon, pomegranate, rice, avocado, etc.), and exclusive high-performance components (colloidal gold, ginseng extract and various algae).

What constitutes a fabric mask, in general, is determined by two factors: the type of skin for which it is intended, and the task before it. The general purpose of their products manufacturers usually indicate on the packaging, but similar in composition means can vary significantly depending on which cosmetic tasks they are aimed at. Because of this, cosmetologists recommend to follow the rule: first you need to study the composition of the mask, and only then buy it.

It should also be taken into account that all the ingredients that determine the composition of face masks are divided into broad-spectrum components and components aimed at solving narrow specialized tasks.

We give examples of compositions that solve common problems. If the choice of cosmetic is dictated by the desire to rejuvenate the skin of the face, you need to know that you must buy a mask with hyaluronic acid, which also must include retinol, glycerol, extract of the placenta and algae. Due to the tonic effect of such a composition well tightens the skin.

Stable demand differs moisturizing mask with its traditional ingredients in the form of minerals and amino acids. Its undoubted advantage is the ability to regulate, and, at best, and finally normalize, the water balance in the body.

For the daily alignment of the skin before applying decorative cosmetics suitable tool, which includes an extract of lavender, chamomile or hazelnut. 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 herbal masks with extracts of aloe, ginseng and birch. A reliable dermatological product that actually removes excess sebum, may contain mint extract, Korean charcoal and, most importantly, argenine, as essential components, which improves the flow of oxygen to the blood vessels of the surface layer of the skin.

A highly specialized composition is typical for Asian fabric masks. Their exoticism is due to the fact that among the ingredients you can always find a component that has a narrow focus and the same narrow local “binding” to its location or prey.

Among the "exotic" options one of the first places today is the mask with a snail. It contains a snail mucus extract, the effectiveness of which is determined by 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 due to drying the inflammations on it.

“Exotic” component is considered to be world-famous colloidal gold. It is included as an obligatory ingredient in the composition of masks, the purpose of which is to provide a sustainable anti-aging effect. Performing mediating functions, colloidal gold delivers moisturizing and nutrients to the deep layers of the dermis, thus tightening the facial contours and leveling the skin.

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

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

A distinctive feature of Asian fabric masks aimed at rejuvenation is the presence in them of some components of snake venom. In serum based on snake venom masks there is a special ingredient - Tripeptide. He 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.

Benefit

Many women see the advantage of fabric masks in their inherent ability to save elusive time. With all the value of this property, one cannot but agree with the opinion of specialists who unanimously associate the amazing popularity of these new-fashioned cosmetics with their effectiveness and functionality. In the morning, the masks prepare the face for applying makeup, and in the evening before bedtime they relax the skin, combat dryness, tightness, ensuring its nightly recovery.

At the same time, cosmetologists tirelessly emphasize that the obvious plus of tissue masks lies primarily in the miraculous effect that they have on the skin through serum.

It is allowed to add other ingredients to this composition, such as lavender or witch hazel. Then an equal amount of yarrow or non-carbonated water is added to the existing mixture and thoroughly mixed.
