Here's How To Avoid A Face Mask Drying Out Your Skin
By TESSA A. ADAMS
You should always be aware of what ingredients you’re putting on your face, and this includes face masks. Face masks are the ultimate at-home beauty routine, so this means you should be choosing the correct mask and applying it properly so you reap all the benefits.
Cleanse and moisturize your skin before a face mask, and then after the face mask, moisturize with products containing glycerin and hyaluronic acid. To ensure your skin doesn’t get dried out, look for hydrating and overnight face masks that contain ingredients like glycerin and panthenol, and avoid masks that dry out the skin like clay and mud masks.
If you notice your skin is really dry, cut down on how often you use a mask, because once or twice a week is sufficient enough to get all the mask’s benefits. Make sure you read reviews and ingredients to ensure it’s the right mask for you, and some of the best reviewed masks include Youth to the People Superberry Hydrate and First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Oatmeal.
