Simple! Wash your face, pat dry and apply the sheet mask. After 15-20 minutes, remove the mask, pat your face to “seal” the moisture and done! But we are Skincare Obsessed, so here goes the long version:
Wash your face
If you have heavy make-up on, make sure you double-cleanse (meaning, first remove the make-up using an oil based formula, and then use a water-based formula for the second cleanse). Stay tuned, we are working hard to bring you some double-cleanse combos in the near future!
Open sheet mask
Open your sheet mask and apply onto your face. When you put your sheet mask on, start at your forehead and slowly work your way down your face. Carefully place the holes over your eyes, then continue to lay the mask over your mouth, and down to your chin. To maximize your sheet mask benefits, you want the mask to hug every inch of your face as much as possible. If there are any bumps, bubbles, or wrinkles in the sheet mask, gently smooth them out.
-PRO TIP!
For an out-of-this-world refreshing feel, refrigerate your unopened sheet mask for at least 20 minutes prior to use (or just keep your sheet masks in the fridge so they are always ready to go!)
For super absorption and relaxation, try warming up your sheet mask by running it (unopened, in its original packaging) under hot water for a few minutes. The warm sheet mask helps soften the outer skin layer and allows more of the serum to get in.
Apply sheet mask
Leave on for 15-20 minutes. Some people think that the longer you leave the sheet mask on the better, but 15-20 minutes is the sweet spot. You’ll want to take the sheet mask off before the mask starts to feel dry to avoid any reverse-osmosis effects (this is when the dry sheet starts absorbing the moisture back from your skin). Left it for too long? No problem, consistent application is the key and just keep aiming for the right timing.
- PRO TIP!
Mask while you relax: Netflix and mask? Yes, please!
Mask while you multitask: Mask while you WFH. Enough said.
Remove sheet mask
Remove the sheet mask, pat your face with your hands and done! Make sure you don’t wash your face immediately after masking. You’d be removing all the wonderful serum you just applied.
