Assalamualaikum and good day 2015,
cant believe i'm a year older. Although we are aging but keep our mind young, eh :)
I have loads of questions from you girls and some of guys; mostly asked about facial mask. Why we need it, what's their differences, and some of you might not want to use it because your skin will breakout. Dont be..because the conditions of your skin depends on the mask you used. So, with the help from one of my beauty guru I will share ~
What is a facial mask..??
It is a facial treatment or skin care procedure applied once a week or when it is needed. Besides, it will help to address your skin concerns. There are many types of mask in the market such as:
GEL |
PEEL - OFF |
EXFOLIATING |
CREAM |
SHEET |
CLAY |
There are 3 categories of facial mask:
A) EXFOLIATING (ACNE)/PURIFYING MASK
B) WHITENING MASK
C) ANTI AGING/HYDRATION MASK
get to know them

A) EXFOLIATING (ACNE)/PURIFYING MASK
Acne mask usually comes in a form of clay
clay is a very good substance for acne skin problem because it pulls out the dirt, impurities under your skin. So, if you may use acne mask several days later you will have breakout.
dun worry because...
fyi clay is also being used in purifying mask. Because it helps to remove ALL the dead skin cells. After the mask hardened, for like 10 minutes, massage your skin to remove all the dead skin.
B) WHITENING MASK
this comes in two forms
whitening ~ bleaching the skin
brightening ~ breaking the pigmentation to make the skin look brighter
fyi..most of the bleaching properties contain in external products such as cream, gel, lotion etc2. Where else, brightening can be accomplish by taking beauty supplements.
if you ask me.. I prefer brightening :)
but most beauty companies came with products for brightening since bleaching is not usually allowed in beauty products.
so since it target specific area, it is very useful for people with pigmentation, acne scars.
I still using this for my acne scars. When your fingers getting itchy and you cannot fight the urge to squeeze the acne, you will have those marks that I dun know will last for a week, a month or for ever! DO NOT.. DO IT.
C) ANTI AGING/HYDRATION MASK
Since hydrating mask trap in water/moisture in our skin so it gives you cooling sensation once applied.
additional tips for anti aging~ drink tea :)
There are many hydrating mask in market, for example the sheet mask.
The ingredients that mostly contained in these 3 mask are as follow:
I hope this info will help you guys choose your mask according to skin problems successfully
