The Beginner’s Guide to Face Masks
It’s no wonder that with the stress of everyday life, pollution, and even our diets, our skin takes strain. Sometimes it feels like there isn’t enough time in a day to truly take care of ourselves. Thankfully face masks are the perfect way to give your skin the boost it needs in very little time.
Find the face mask made with your skin in mind.
MINERAL, CLAY AND CLARIFYING MASKS
There’s a reason multi-masking has taken the world by storm. Our skin is complex and not every area needs the same treatment. For example, if you suffer from an oily T-zone and a dry forehead, it makes sense to use different face masks to address these issues. This ensures that your whole face gets the attention it deserves.
Our bestselling Black Mineral Mask has oil-absorbing mineral clays that draw out the oils which clog your pores, causing pimples or blemishes. It also helps to revive and energise skin. Use over your forehead, cheeks, and nose for a deep cleanse or apply to the areas that need it. If you happen to notice bigger pores on your nose and cheeks, try a Blackhead Clearing Mask. This mask contains white clay to cleanse, and salicylic acid to reveal even-toned skin whilst reducing surface oil. It can also be used as a scrub to remove dead skin cells which make your skin appear dull or tired. Talk about a multi-tasker!
SHEET MASKS
I’m crazy about sheet masks and so is the rest of South Africa. Here’s why: sheet masks are saturated with a high concentration of ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and grape extracts. When you apply the mask to your face, those ingredients seep into your skin – and because the mask is on your face for 15 minutes, it has the time to penetrate deeply. We’re not lying when we say that you’re 15 minutes away from healthy, happy skin! There are a lot of sheet masks to choose from. If you have sensitive skin or love natural ingredients, try Avon True Sheet Masks. They include natural ingredients like hyaluronic acid and cactus flower, which hydrate and plump skin; citrus extracts to boost radiance, and grape extracts which give you a youthful glow.
If you’re serious about reducing wrinkles or fighting the first signs of them, try Anew Sheet Masks. These masks allow you 15 minutes of luxury and reduce wrinkles, lines, and uneven skin tone. Remember to massage the remaining serum into your skin for maximum benefit! Life’s too short to ignore self-care, so get masking! We have no doubt you’ll love it.
