The Do's and Don'ts of a facial mask

A facial mask will provide its maximum benefits if it is evenly applied so that the entire face is covered. Of course, you have to avoid the eye and mouth areas. With an uneven application of the face mask, you find that the effects of the face mask on blood circulation in the mask are hindered.

Make it a point to leave the mask on for the suggested period of time, as defined in the product or face mask recipe. The different face masks for different face skin types have to be left on for different spans of time for its effect to take place. This is because if the face mask is left on for too long, it tends to cause an excessive stimulation to the skin.

It is basically better to use a face mask once a week; however if this is not possible, at least once a fortnight or once a month. however using it on alternate days is not advisable as it only spoils the skin complexion instead of improving it.
