When it comes to skincare, every individual has a different routine to keep the skin healthy and glowing. Some of us give priority to ingredients which are readily available in our kitchen and pantry. From using besan powder with curd mask or papaya mask to using milk or multani mitti, people use various things for their face. But, if we do not follow a routine diligently every day, then this can lead to a dull face. Actress Rashmika Mandanna recently shared her skincare secret on Instagram. She follows a very simple strategy that will make you want to adopt it too. We are talking about sheet masks. Let’s take a look at what these are exactly, how to use them and their benefits.
What is a sheet mask?
Sheet mask is a thin fabric that is infused with hydrating and essential fluids needed by our skin. The mask is formulated in a way to let the skin absorb all the goodness of it and make it hydrated and supple. As per Mumbai-based dermatologist Rinky Kapoor, preparing and applying a face mask does not take much time and many people have already opted for this method. A majority of South Korean brands have sheet masks as a product. People are inspired by their cosmetic products and their demand has increased in other parts of the world.
Sheet Mask contains essential vitamins and moisture that the skin can absorb quickly. This method yields results quickly as after a few days you will be able to notice that your skin is soft to the touch, hydrated and glowing.
What are the benefits of using a sheet mask?
- Hydrating is extremely important and is the first step towards healthy and glowing skin. The sheet mask hydrates the skin and keeps dryness and itchiness at bay.
- Instead of buying various bottles of serums, you will get a boost of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants with just one sheet mask.
- It also helps in rejuvenating the skin as it contains Vitamin C, Vitamin E and hyaluronic Acid.
- It is anti-greasy and extremely easy to use. It also acts as a natural protective barrier for the skin.
How to use the sheet mask?
- Wash your face with clean water.
- Pat it dry and then directly apply the sheet mask and leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes. When it dries off, remove the mask and massage lightly.
The best part about using a sheet mask is it can be used once or twice a week or a maximum of three times.
