Using a sheet or gel mask rich in moisturizing ingredients once a week can provide intensive moisturizing care.
Here are some tips on how to choose and use it:
### How to choose a sheet mask:
- **Choose ingredients that suit your skin type:** Check the ingredients contained in the sheet mask depending on your purpose, such as moisturizing, whitening, acne treatment, etc.
- **Choose fragrance-free and hypoallergenic products:** If you have sensitive skin or don't like scents, it's a good idea to choose products that are fragrance-free and hypoallergenic.
- **Check the material of the sheet:** There are various materials such as cotton, cellulose, hyaluronic acid, etc. If you choose a soft material that suits your skin, you can use it comfortably.
- **Perfect-fitting design:** Choosing a design that fits the curves of your face will make it easier for the sheet to adhere to your face.
- **Products with a high concentration of essence or serum:** If you choose a sheet mask that contains a high concentration of serum or essence, it will provide excellent hydration and nourishment.
### How to choose a gel mask:
- **Choose the right ingredients for your purpose:** Check the ingredients in your gel mask to see what you're looking for - whether it's hydrating, cooling, lifting, etc.
- **Heat-adjustable masks:** There are also gel masks that can be cooled in the refrigerator or heated before use. It is best to choose one that suits your purpose and the season.
- **Choose fragrance-free and hypoallergenic products:** If you choose a gel mask that is fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, it can be used safely even on sensitive skin.
- **A type that does not remain on the skin:** If you choose a type that does not leave gel on the skin after use, it will be easy to use.
- **Disposable or Reusable:** Gel masks are available in both disposable and reusable varieties. Choose the one that best suits your budget and how often you plan to use them.
### Tips on how to use (for both sheet masks and gel masks):
- **Use on clean skin after washing your face:** Using on clean skin after removing makeup and dirt will allow the active ingredients to penetrate the skin more easily.
- **Do a Patch Test:** Before using any new product, do a patch test on your wrist or behind your ear to make sure it suits your skin.
- **Avoid use around eyes and mouth:** Avoid direct contact with eyes and mouth areas.
- **Use for the recommended time:** Usage time varies depending on the product, but generally 15 to 20 minutes is the recommended time. Using for a long period of time may dry out your skin.
- **After use, lightly press in any remaining essence:** After removing the sheet mask, lightly press in any remaining essence on your skin to blend it into your skin.
- **Perform skin care afterwards:** Sheet masks and gel masks only provide temporary hydration and nourishment, so follow up with your regular skin care routine.
- **Keep Frequency:** Keep frequency of use to avoid putting too much strain on your skin. It is best not to use every day, but only when needed.
- **Effective when used after heating or cooling:** If you are concerned about dryness caused by heating or cooling, it is effective to use a sheet mask or gel mask afterwards.
- **Use when traveling or when you're tired:** It's a good idea to use sheet masks or gel masks to refresh yourself, especially when you're traveling or feeling tired.
- **Pay attention to how you feel:** Skin conditions and how you feel vary from person to person. Find the method and frequency that suits your skin and use it according to your skin condition.
Use a combination of these methods to keep your skin properly moisturized and healthy.
