How often should you do face masks?
Listen to your skin!
For dry skin: nothing better than a hydrating bath once or twice a week.
For dull skin: some so-called "night" masks are applied two to three times a week in the evening, to be left on overnight. You will get a wonderful result and a guaranteed fresh complexion when you wake up.
For oily skin or skin lacking firmness: same principle, once or twice a week is the ideal ritual, masks are your allies, don't forget them.
How to choose the right mask for your skin type?
Skin lacking hydration:
All skin types need to be hydrated. Dry skin remains uncomfortable and often loses its radiance and beauty. Dry skin lacks water and lipids. The moisturizing mask will recharge your skin with water, and also on the eye contour and eyelids (for these areas, a specific mask can be applied).
Oily skin:
It will produce an excessive amount of sebum by the sebaceous glands and/or dehydration. If the skin lacks water, it will automatically produce sebum to protect itself. An overproduction of sebum will clog the pores and cause blemishes, pimples and blackheads. A mask for this problem eliminates impurities, purifies the skin without drying out the epidermis.
Redness:
Irritations, dryness, redness, the skin is sensitive to daily aggressions. The anti-redness mask protects the vascular system and limits aggravating factors. It provides, upon application, immediate comfort, leaves the skin soft, perfectly hydrated and soothed.
A dull complexion:
The complexion can lose its radiance due to a lack of sleep, skin aging, stress, an unbalanced diet or even poor elimination of toxins. As you will have understood, there are many factors that cause a bad complexion!
Lack of firmness:
Sagging skin is not only due to the sun or the passage of time, other factors can also be responsible for this phenomenon (pollution, tobacco, alcohol, pregnancy, genetics, poor diet, etc.). The firming mask helps prevent, slow down and combat premature aging of the skin.
Night masks: what are the benefits?

The ideal routine
It's not easy to combine work and skincare. Often, we look forward to the weekend to unwind. Here's a complete routine to take care of yourself and regain a radiant, purified and plumped complexion.
Once your skin is well cleansed and/or thoroughly cleansed, exfoliate. The purpose of exfoliating the skin is to stimulate blood circulation while eliminating dead cells that dull your complexion. In addition to smoothing the skin and getting rid of scales, exfoliation helps to boost the effectiveness of masks.
Our little extra: apply a mousse or tonic, this will allow you to perfect your make-up removal.
Perform small facial skin massages before applying the mask. Indeed, this practice is ideal for relaxing the features. For a healthy glow, make small circles from the inside to the outside of the face.
Then, choose your mask, take a little product and apply it to the entire face, with your finger or brush, avoiding the eye area. Start at the center line (forehead, nose, chin) and stretch the material to the sides, taking care not to forget the neck. If you wish, add a mask for the eye area. Some masks can be applied to the face and eyes, consult the instructions for more information.
Leave on for 5 to 15 minutes. Depending on the mask chosen, application times may vary, and some masks do not need to be rinsed.
Once your skin is purified, carry out your daily cream and serum ritual.
