Use facial masks during your skin’s menstrual period

 　　Facial mask, as a closed and intensive care plan for the skin, can best reduce the troubles caused to the skin due to changes in the menstrual period. So as long as you get the facial mask, you also get the "temperament" of your skin.

　　●Integrate skin physiological period (menstrual period): moisturizing mask + whitening eye mask

　　“When "Old Friend" comes, the blood flows downwards and a large amount of water in the body is lost, so the skin during menstruation is prone to roughness and dryness. And if the blood circulation is not smooth, the condition of dark circles will also be serious. Therefore, at this time, moisturizing is particularly important. A deeply moisturizing facial mask is essential, and a whitening eye mask can also help reduce the interference of dark circles on beauty.

　　Moisturizing Mask A/B Option:

　　A. Cream - Cream texture masks for dry and combination skin generally contain a higher oil content.

　　For dry skin, as the "drought" worsens during menstruation, if you can use a moisturizing mask with high oil content, it will be more conducive to retaining moisture in the skin. In particular, some cream-like moisturizing masks can be left on the skin overnight, and the effect will be more ideal. For combination skin, replenishing water in a targeted manner will make the skin more supple and supple.

　　B. Paper type - oily skin Oily skin does not mean that your skin will not be thirsty, and paper mask can carry high concentration of moisturizing essence, so that the skin can receive intensive moisturizing care, and can quickly increase the moisture content of the skin. However, one thing to note is that when you take off the mask after 15 to 20 minutes, you should immediately apply moisturizing cream to lock the moisture in the skin.

　　Bonus points for the effectiveness of whitening eye masks: Top skin care brands such as Lancôme and Estee Lauder have been paying attention to women's dark circles in the past two years, so their respective whitening eye masks have also been put on the counter. But as for the whitening eye mask, maybe you have complained about its "incompetence", but you don't know that the problem may lie in your method of use. Whitening eye masks are usually made of fabric or paper. When applying them on the lower eye, use the pads of your fingers to gently press from the inside out. This will accelerate blood circulation and help the effectiveness of the eye mask.

　　●Skin safety period during the body’s dangerous period (the 2nd week after menstruation): whitening mask, brightening mask + moisturizing and revitalizing eye mask

　　Skin performs best during ovulation because estrogen in the body is particularly active during this period. Therefore, it is ideal to use this time to eliminate melanin deposited in the skin. At the same time, as the oil secretion in the skin gradually increases, if you apply a full-effect revitalizing eye mask at this time, you will find that the fine lines at the corners of your eyes will also become lighter.

　　The magic of whitening and brightening masks: This type of mask will test your patience the most. You can only see the effect if you keep applying it for 6 to 7 days. Of course, this will only affect skin dullness and spots caused by ultraviolet rays from the sun, and will not have a good effect on other pigmentation. However, one thing that can be recommended is that if you had acne on your mouth before your "old friend" came, then using a whitening mask like this at this time will have the effect of cleaning up the "traces" left by the acne.

　　Additional conditions for the moisturizing and revitalizing eye mask: It does not mean that applying the eye mask is enough. You must apply one week before eye cream after applying the eye mask, so that the eye skin can be better moisturized. If you only rely on eye mask, the skin around your eyes will feel tight after taking it off, which may lead to fine lines due to dryness.

　　●Skin safety rules before and after the safe period: Pre-safety period (one week before menstruation)

　　Deep Cleansing Mask/Oil Control Mask + Pore Care Mask Before the menstrual period, the skin is prone to oiliness, pores become enlarged and black, and small pimples appear at any time. Just in case, using some facial masks to regulate oil secretion in advance can play a preventive role. As for pores, we know that this is by no means a sudden incident one morning, but has accumulated over a long period of time. This period of the month is the time when pores grow rapidly, so facial masks with the effect of shrinking pores should be most useful at this time.

　　Cleansing Mask Vs Oil Control Mask "Oil control mask" is not a professional name, it is just a commercial name given to the product by the brand. From the perspective of oil control, deep cleansing masks and water-oil balance masks can both control oil. In any case, the skin is more likely to absorb dust and breed bacteria during this period, so it is absolutely necessary to use a deep cleansing mask or oil control mask during this period.

　　The misunderstanding about pore care masks is not that pore care masks can really shrink pores, but that they can clean pores and slow down the expansion of pores. Therefore, this type of facial mask is relatively slow-acting in the facial mask family, so don’t be too eager to see its effect. This is a long-term process and requires consistent use for a period of time.

　　Post-safety period (first week after menstruation): soothing mask/energizing mask

　　After those days, the vitality of the skin is greatly damaged, and this should be a correction and recovery period for the skin. Use this time to increase hormonal secretion and apply a soothing mask or repairing mask for 7 consecutive days to achieve deep skin care effects.

　　Note on ingredients of soothing mask/energizing mask: Soothing mask or revitalizing mask can help activate cells. Facial masks generally contain ingredients such as fruit acid and salicylic acid, which can quickly clean up those aging dead cells and provide a healthy skin. skin Provide nutrients and keep you moisturized. However, for people with sensitive skin, applying this mask may cause skin allergic reactions, so it is best to do a test behind the ears before use.
