2. How to use the sleep mask?

1. When should I use it at night?

Sleep mask is best used around 10 in the afternoon.

10 afternoon to 2 am is the most vigorous time for human skin metabolism. During this period, the skin absorption effect is the best in a day. So we always say that it is better to use skin care products at night than during the day. Skin care products used before afternoon 10 and after 2: 00 am are not as effective as those used at this time.

2. Do I have to wash my face after using it at night?

You don't have to wash it.

Sleep mask, as its name implies, is a mask used when sleeping, so you can wear it all night. The ingredients in the sleep mask are actually similar to those in the night cream, but the nutrients are higher than those in the night cream, and it can help the skin to better lock the surface moisture and nutrition during sleep, so it does not need to be cleaned.

3. It can also be cleaned after use.

Because the sleep mask is extremely nutritious, many people will feel a little sticky on their faces after using it, and they will feel uncomfortable when sleeping with this feeling, so it is also possible to clean the sleep mask at this time. Usually, after applying the sleep mask for about 30 minutes, you can wash your face with clear water to wash off the excess mask components on your face, which will not affect the efficacy of the sleep mask.

4. Can I use it at other time?

Sleep mask can be used not only at night, but also during the day. For example, in the morning, before makeup or during lunch break, the sleep mask has the same effect as the ordinary mask, but it can be applied for a longer time, and you can even sleep with it. Applying a sleep mask before makeup can replenish moisture to the face and make the makeup more docile. Using sleep mask during lunch break can effectively improve skin tone, and after waking up, you will find that the skin is obviously shiny.
