Is it effective to apply a facial mask during menstruation?

Wearing a facial mask is a habit of modern women. Some people wear a facial mask every day because they think that wearing a facial mask can make the skin better and better. If the skin is better, the appearance will certainly improve. However, there are many things that women need to avoid during menstruation. So how about wearing a facial mask during menstruation?

How to use facial mask during menstruation

Although women's body resistance will decrease during menstruation and their physical fitness will also decrease to a certain extent, applying a facial mask will not have any effect, so it is completely possible to apply a facial mask during menstruation. However, women's skin absorption is not very good during the menstrual period, and the skin's absorption capacity is the best within 7 days after the menstrual period. It can be said that it is the best time to apply a mask. Therefore, it is better to do it after menstruation.

Washing your face is the basis of skin care. If you want the hydrating mask to fully exert its effect, you must first wash your face. In the morning, you only need to use facial cleanser to wash away the oil secreted at night, but you should be careful when washing your face at night. You should not ignore the skin care procedures of makeup removal and cleansing because of laziness. No matter what type of facial cleanser you choose, the most important thing is to clean and moisturize the skin. When the skin is clean and comfortable, you can apply a facial mask or do other maintenance work as soon as possible.

Before menstruation, the face is most likely to be oily, the pores are enlarged, and acne is about to come. At this time, use a deep cleansing mask that nourishes plant oils to prevent it. The tea tree oil moisturizing mask is very refreshing and effective to help you fight difficult acne. If you say that the pores on the skin can never be reduced in size, then you will be indifferent to it. During this stage, she is most likely to indulge herself and grow wildly. It would be unwise not to take good care of it! Therefore, the hydrating mask that refines the pores needs to come into play at this time! One or two days before menstruation, due to the influence of male hormones in the body, the secretion of sebaceous glands in both skin and hair is relatively abundant, resulting in excessive oil, heavy scalp, loss of skin transparency, and easy to get acne, so the skin care routine and skin care products at this time are very important. It is best if the cleansing tool has the function of removing oil. Apply a more layer of essence that balances oil metabolism on the T-zone where there is more oil, or ask the doctor to prescribe some medication a week before the menstrual period to adjust the balance of male hormones.

What are the common problems of women's facial masks?

Because the lack of water can last for a few days, and it is not good to apply a facial mask for a week. The moisture content of the stratum corneum of healthy skin is between 20-30%, and after applying a facial mask, the moisture content of stratum corneum cells reaches 80%. Less water will reduce the skin's immunity, but too much water will also reduce the skin's immunity. Therefore, applying a facial mask too much will cause skin allergies in winter.

Many people think that you shouldn't wear a facial mask during the day, because there is brightness of sunlight and a lot of artificial lighting during the day, and a facial mask cannot be exposed to light. If a facial mask is exposed to light during the day, it may render the effect of the facial mask ineffective. Not only can it not help you achieve skin whitening, but the more you apply it, the more likely your face will become darker. However, it does not mean that all hydrating masks cannot be applied during the day, because there are many types of hydrating masks, some are used during the day, and some are used at night. Because most of the hydrating masks sold on the market are for night use, many people only apply masks at night. If you want to use a facial mask during the day, you need to choose a hydrating mask suitable for daytime use.
