Hong Kong people are busy with work, often neglecting their skin, but prolonged lack of care can lead to numerous skin health issues and problems. Minor neglect can lead to acne and deteriorating skin, while severe cases may result in infected facial pores. Therefore, many quick and simple moisturizing face masks have been introduced in the market today, providing easy hydration and cleansing for the skin in just 15 minutes. Here, we will share some tips on applying face masks and recommend three affordable, fast-acting moisturizing face masks.
Tips for Applying Facial Masks
The first tip is to apply a face mask for less than 20 minutes each time, as the moisturizing effect of the mask will decrease after 20 minutes, and the skin’s moisture will instead be lost.
The second tip is that the frequency should not be too high. Applying a mask once a week is the most suitable, as it can soothe the stratum corneum without causing the skin barrier to decrease due to frequent mask application, making the skin more prone to irritation.
The third tip is not to use a mask when the skin is sensitive, because if the skin is wounded, acne, or sensitive when using a mask, the ingredients in the mask will actually harm the skin when absorbed by the skin.
My Beauty Diary Hyaluronic Acid Ultra Moisturizing Mask uses high-quality hyaluronic acid moisturizing ingredients with a diverse special molecular structure, which can tightly bind water molecules to maintain skin’s water-locking endurance, allowing the skin to stay hydrated. The mask is made of an ultra-silk naked skin water-gel mask using tencel fiber, which can effectively carry the essence water structure, allowing the skin to effectively absorb the essence of the mask.
The mask contains long-lasting moisturizing and soothing factors such as spirulina and aloe vera, which can deeply hydrate and soothe the uncomfortable feeling of dryness and roughness in the stratum corneum, creating a perfect touch of hydrated skin. At the same time, the essence of red algae and Ginkgo biloba extract can inject skin with dual-effect vitality factors that are both elastic and firm, enhancing the skin’s extremely smooth sensation.
Each box of My Beauty Diary Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mask is priced at HK$60, with 8 pieces per box, averaging HK$7.5 per piece.
