Everyone knows that applying a face mask is the perfect time to sit back and relax while it works its magic, but what exactly is it doing while you de-stress. Many will say that it is one of the easiest methods to get healthy skin in a matter of minutes, but this does not answer the question in much detail. To help you get a better picture of what they do, our skin care professionals at Shira Esthetics put together a list of the inner working of the product.
Pores: The mask provides a deep clean that pulls dead skin cells, environmental toxins, and metabolic waste to the surface, removing them as it is taken off. The process will unclog pores resulting in clearer, more refined skin.
Hydration: Properly hydrated skin offers a plethora of benefits, all of which can be achieved through the use of a mask. The water in the product will be absorbed into the deep layers of the skin working to increase its elasticity and soften it from the inside out. When skin has been properly moisturized, it gives off a fuller, more youthful appearance. Another perk of thoroughly hydrated skin is that it allows for an easier application of makeup.
Tone: They are designed to create an even skin tone and smooth surface. By encouraging the sweat glands to increase their secretion rate, the skin will receive high oxygen levels. They will also lessen the effects of hyperpigmentation in the skin.
Fine Lines: Since masks are meant to smooth out the skin’s texture, they can diminish the visibility of wrinkles and various spots that may appear as we age. These results further its capacity to provide you with a more youthful appearance.
Firmness: One of the most noticeable areas they will benefit is the reduction of loose skin. Since the product can promote collagen production, continued use will lead to firmer, fresher skin.
As the mask works on a variety of levels throughout the skin, there are many benefits that you may not realize at first. Since there are so many different options available, it is important to take the time to find the one that works best for your skin type. At Shira Esthetics, we have a wide selection of masks that are sure to suit your specific needs.
