The development of facial mask and how to use it

noreply@blogger.com (emma00) — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 06:37:00 +0000

Facial masks have been around for many years. They're designed to rid your skin of blemishes, supply the face with moisture, or even to reduce the look of wrinkles. Most masks go on like a thick goo; you leave it on for a few minutes then wash it off with water. Afterwards, your face can feel refreshed, and your skin tightened and renewed. Some facial masks actually peel away. After leaving the goo on for the recommended time the wearer peels the mask away by grabbing hold of the film the goo has become and peeling it off the face. Afterwards, many of the facial mask products recommend rinsing of the face.As technology progresses changes are often made to some of our favorite things. As with many of today's popular products there have been tremendous breakthroughs in the world of facial masks. Enter the facial mask sheet. Instead of spreading paste-like products on our faces we now have the option of rejuvenating our faces by using stick-on sheets.Facial mask sheets come in a variety of types. Some are created specifically to target wrinkles and facial lines. Others hydrate; still others attempt to smooth the complexion. Whichever type your skin needs it's now available in a simple sheet you apply to your face.Everything you need to have a smoother, younger looking face is already on the facial mask. When you prepare to place the mask on your face it will come in two sections. To apply the mask peel away the backing from the bottom section of the mask, which will cover lower cheeks, jaw lines and chin, then apply the second section which covers upper cheeks, nose, and around the eyes. Simply press each half of the mask against the skin then allow to sit for 15 minutes. The type of mask you choose may recommend a different amount of time to wait before removing.The masks can be purchased in various size boxes, but no matter what type or size mask you purchase, you'll only use each mask once before discarding. After the application, and the removal of the mask, there's no need to rinse the face.
Most makers of the facial masks recommend the application twice a week but many women apply the masks several times a week - if not every night. Although there is no rinsing after the mask you most definitely have to rinse your face before applying the mask. The rinsing dampens the skin
and helps the mask stay fitted to your face.The price of the facial mask sheets can vary. Purchased individually, and depending upon the type of product you purchase, a mask sheet can range from $5 to $10. Purchased by boxes you can spend over $20 for five masks; over $80 for 20 mask sheets.Purchase the facial masks sheets from a reputable company. Trying to save money can mean ill-fitting masks that produce little to no results. The two pieces of the mask generally come in one packet, so if the packaging says "5 pieces" they don't mean five half-face pieces. Each two pieces (one for top of face, one for bottom of face) counts as one piece.
The masks feel cool and comfortable while you're wearing them and you can actually feel your skin tightening. Wearing the mask for 15 minutes is a breeze as is the removal of the mask halves. There is no need to rinse or towel off afterwards.You'll like the results you'll see when you use the new facial mask sheets. They're handy, easy to apply, and will definitely improve the look of your skin. You'll find the sheets online, at cosmetic stores, and at some discount department stores.

The BEST way to care for your face

noreply@blogger.com (emma00) — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 06:01:00 +0000

Over the years, I have found the best way to care for my face:
Do eat fruits, veggies, and drink plenty of water (esp important...while my face has been clear for a long time now...it still is an excellent indicator of my hydration level, getting kinda quasi-pimply and irritable when I haven't been drinking enough water)
Don't eat too much crap...sugar, fat, cheese, milk, chocolate...
Twice a day, wash your face with warm water. Not too hot, but just hot enough to rinse away the oils that build up--this involves splashing and light rubbing for about 30 seconds or more. I can feel the oil coming off my face when I do this.
Then rinse with cold water to close the pores...I found this to be a very important.
Don't make a habit of resting your hands on your face.
Twice a week, do facial mask.
Don't pick at pimples - especially those "blind" ones!
Then if you feel like applying something, go for it, but start out light...the last thing you want to do is completely, chemically strip away all your face's natural protective oils.

women make-up tips

noreply@blogger.com (emma00) — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 06:30:00 +0000

I just wanted to to offer some advice. My girlfriends and I were just talking about this the other day.If you wear makeup, make sure to wash it off every day. Do not sleep in it! One of my friends was talking about how she will wear her makeup to bed and some times the next day too. Makeup can clog your pores, prevent oxygen from getting to it and prevent sweat from cleansing the pores. Besides, washing your face each night and even each morning, plus moisturizing will leave you with much healthier skin and less acne!
Practicing a daily skin care regimen is important to maintaining younger healtier looking skin. In order to have the best results possible you should be consistant with your regimen. Here are some important tips to keep in mind when taking care of your skin.Washing your face too much can cause increased oil production. Always use a gentle cleanser when washing your face. Washing your face in the morning and at night time should be enough.
Using a toner after cleansing your face helps control excess oil throughout the day. Be sure to choose a toner without alcohol because alcohol dries out the skin.Do not wear your make-up to bed at night as it will clog your pores or increase your risk for more frequent breakouts. Wash your face twice at the end of the day, once to remove your make-up and the other to cleanse the skin.Exfoliate at least twice a week with a delicate scrub. Exfoliating your skin removes dead skin cells to leave skin looking fresh and healthy.Use a facial mask regularly. A facial mask will help reduce the size of your pores and helps to remove blackheads. Usually twice a week but never exfoliate and use a facial mask on the same day as this may cause skin irritation. Use a moisturizer daily and at bedtime to keep your skin hydrated.Be gentle to your skin, never pull, tug, or scrub your facial skin. Pat your skin dry and gently rub in your moisturizers. Use your ring finger to apply eye creams and never rub, dab gently until absorbed.Avoid the sun as much as possible, if not be sure to use a moisterizer and foundation with suncreen.Keep your skin hydrated by increasing your water intake. Try to get a good 8 hours sleep each night as this helps decrease dark circles and swelling around the eye area.

The best facial mask that helps to clear acne and make pores smaller

noreply@blogger.com (emma00) — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 00:55:00 +0000

This is a homemade mask and I think it works really great ....I am gonna list two of them ...one is good for acne and one is good for pores and just all around good for the face ....
Aspirin Mask
Indications: all skin types, especially normal to oily and combination skin, acne-prone and clogged skin.
Basic preparation:
1/4 tsp. salicylic acid (ask for it at pharmacy, if you cannot find it, then crush 3-5 tablets of plain aspirin instead), distilled water. Mix the powder with the water until it becomes of a creamy consistence, apply on clean dry skin (focus on T-zone and sides of the nose). Keep it on until completely dry. Take a small cotton pad, wet it lightly and begin scrubbing the areas covered with the mask, making small circles. Finally, rinse with plenty of water. It would be excellent to apply a calming mask or a hydrating mask first, followed by your regular moisturizer. Skin will be left completely smooth and even.
There are practically unlimited versions of this mask. You can add yoghurt for an astringent effect, aloe vera, honey. You can also make the mask using a basic moisturizer mixed with salicylic acid instead of water, as it will be less harsh on the skin and will be more easy to use. Another option is to mix salicylic acid / crushed aspirin into a mask: into a clay mask, a hydrating mask or a soothing mask. My personal favourite is aloe vera mask with a hint of salicylic acid - application is much better, skin is less irritated and dried compared to aspirin with water, the feeling left after this mask is absolutely unique so smooth and clean!
If you use powdered salicylic acid, it is advisable to limit the quantity to 1/4 tsp. for the whole face, too much will burn the skin. If using aspirin tablets, you will probably need somewhere between 3 and 10 tablets depending on the area where you apply it.
Do not apply it near to eye zone, as it would be extremely drying and irritating for the sensitive skin there.
Refrain yourself from over-using it. For very oily skin and for severe blemishes, every 3 days would be more than enough in order not to stress the skin and obtain maximum efficiency. Other skin types should use it once a week or twice a month (dry to very dry, sensitive skin).

Oatmeal Mask
All skin types benefit from exfoliation (removal of dead skin cells), and moisturizing ingredients. The following masque was designed to exfoliate and moisturize and can be used by all skin types. It is recommended for those with sensitive skin, so you can be confident about the results.
You will need:
½ cup hot water (do not boil)
1/3 cup quick oatmeal (the label should say 1 minute or 3 minute cooking time)2 tablespoons plain yogurt
2 tablespoons honey
1 egg white from a small egg
First, mix water and oatmeal. Set this aside to thicken. It should form a paste. While the oatmeal is thickening, mix the other ingredients with a mixer. Add the oatmeal paste and mix until the mixture is well blended.
To use, apply a fairly thin layer evenly to the face, avoiding the eyelids. However, if you do get this masque in your eyes, just rinse out with warm water. No contents of this mixture should cause harm to the eyes. Leave on your face for 10 to 15 minutes. Your face should feel tight, but the masque does not need to dry completely to work. When your time is up, simply rinse your face with warm water.
This mixture should be just enough for one application. If you have any left over, you can refrigerate it for up to one week.
For an extra treat, place used tea bags on your eyelids while your masque is working. This will reduce any puffiness on your eyelids, and give you a refreshed appearance to complement the new glow of your facial skin.

Here's some tips to skin

noreply@blogger.com (emma00) — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 00:47:00 +0000

To Cleanse the Pores:
Rub mashed tomato on your face and rinse with cool water. If your like me, you've thrown many tomatoes away. Don't! You may not want to eat it, but it will be fine for your skin treatment if it's not completely rotten. Just use the best of what is left because you only need a small amount.

Note: Some people find that tomatoes will irritate the skin. If so, try mashed grapes instead!

To Tighten and Refine Pores:
Whip the white of an egg and add a pinch of alum (drug store) and apply to the skin as a mask. Leave on for 15 to 20 minutes then rinse off with warm water. (never hot water!)

Peel and slice 1/2 a cucumber and puree in a blender or processor. Add 1 TBSP of plain yogurt. Mix well and apply to skin. Leave on for 15 to 20 minutes then wipe off with a damp wash cloth or rinse with warm water. Cucumber contains amino and organic acids. This blend will cool, refresh skin and tighten pores.

To Remove Dead Surface Skin Cells and Improve Skin Texture:
Gently rub a small handful of dry short grain rice against you face for a few minutes. This is a Japanese technique that has been used for centuries.

Add 2 TBSP of cornmeal mixed with enough water to make a thick paste. Gently rub on face in circular motions and rinse off. This makes a quick, inexpensive exfoliant.
Grind 1 TBSP of almonds into a fine meal. Mix with 1 TBSP of honey and 1 egg white. Apply to skin and allow to dry for 15 minutes. Gently wipe off with wash cloth and rinse face with lukewarm water.

To Soften and Nourish the Skin:
Mash half of an avacado and apply to face. Leave on until it dries, then rinse off with warm water. Avacado contains essential fatty acids and other nutrients that can help prevent premature wrinkling.

To Moisturize Your Skin:
Mash up grapes with enough honey to make a paste and apply the mix to face as a mask. Leave it on for 20-25 minutes then rinse off. Grapes are a natural source of collagen and alpha-hydroxy acids

To Help Protect Your Skin from Free Radical Damage:
Add a few drops of green tea extract to your ingredients. You can also add the extract to your other beauty products like astringents and lotions. If your local drug store does not carry this, call your closest health food or general nutrition store. Green Tea is a wonderful antioxident that fights free radicals that are damaging to the skin and thought to be largely responsible for the aging of skin aside from sun damage. Drinking hot green tea is very healthy for you too!

To Loosen Blackheads:
Combine equal parts baking soda and water in hand and gently rub in a circular motion on skin and rinse. As with any exfoliating type product, it is very important to not apply too much pressure. You do not want to scratch the skin. Instead, you want just a smooth circular motion with very little pressure and let the product do it's thing. Do not use scratchy or exfoliating products on irritated, inflamed or broken skin such as a wound, cut, inflamed acne or rash.

To Soothe and Relieve Itchy Skin:
Grind up oatmeal in blender or processor to a fine powder. Add water to make a paste. Apply to skin and let dry, then gently remove with a damp wash cloth and rinse skin with tepid (lukewarm) water. This paste should not be runny. If you add too much water, add more oatmeal. A little goes a long way and this mixture can be used anywhere on the body for rashes, dry-itchy skin, or bug bites. I grind up 1/2 to 3/4 cup of oatmeal and store it in a baby food jar.

To Stimulate Circulation and Firm the Skin:
Combine 1/2 of a peeled cucumber, 1 TBSP of yogurt, a few strawberries, and 1 tsp. of honey in a blender or processor. Make a puree. Apply to face and let dry (or set well). Gently wipe off with a wet wash cloth and rinse skin well. This is a great all-around home facial recipe and treatment.

secert to green facial is:
1/2 avocado thoroughly mashed into a paste
Add 1 tablespoon sea salt or kosher salt
A generous squeeze or dollop of honey

Apply for 10 to 15 minutes then Rinse off with warm water
Keep unused portion in refrigerator for 2 to 3 days
Add a drizzle of olive oil or nut oil to create a super moisturizing mask.

Will laughing or smiling when wearing a facial mask cause wrinkles?

noreply@blogger.com (emma00) — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 00:31:00 +0000

NO!!!! not true! IT WILL JUST CAUSE SMALL CRACKS IN THE MASK.
Why would it do that?
A mask is to made to tone -moisturize-remove black heads etc. It can't give you wrinkles no matter what facial expressions you makeIt might loosen the mask & then it won't be doing it's job but not give you wrinkles.
Constant squinting -sun damage heredity-(how does your mom-dad look?) give you wrinkles not facial masks!!!!

What are the benefits of a facial mask?

noreply@blogger.com (emma00) — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 00:23:00 +0000

the benefits depend on the type of mask you are using. they could be focused on getting rid of the top layer of dead skin that if left alone will lead to deeper creases and wrinkles in your skin. or maybe a deep moisturizing mask to replenish dry dehydrated skin. Or most traditionally masks have been for the purpose of deep pore cleansing with a mask such as a clay based that is supposed to suck all the impurities out of your pores. well... this leads me to say that often when your skin goes through any trauma or even change in balance, it could react and the standard reaction tends to be pimples or blemishes or rash or swelling. Once it settles down from the mask treatment, your skin is supposed to benefit from the treatment or mask and I think I agree with this but it does not help pimples immediately. In fact it will aggravate if nothing else. But in the long run, they are beneficial for pimples and definitely blackheads.

A great,quick little mask you can do at home

noreply@blogger.com (emma00) — Sat, 21 Mar 2009 06:25:00 +0000

The following is a great, quick little mask you can do at home.
It cleans & clears the skin. If you have quite a few blemishes (not just blackheads, active acne) follow up with an good moisturizer such as Cetaphyl or Purpose.

"The aspirin mask is a homemade BHA mask available to each and everyone of us, totally inexpensive and highly efficient, made of salicylic acid or tablets of aspirin. BHA is known to help tremendously with cleaning pores from deep inside and therefore contribute to keeping our skin blemish-free. BHAs are efficient on existing blemishes as well, by helping them heal faster and keeping pores clean afterwards."

This mask is good for all skin types, especially normal to oily and combination skin, acne-prone and clogged skin.
"Basic preparation: 1/4 tsp. salicylic acid (ask for it at pharmacy, if you cannot find it, then crush 3-5 tablets of plain aspirin instead), distilled water. Mix the powder with the water until it becomes of a creamy consistence, apply on clean dry skin (focus on T-zone and sides of the nose). Keep it on until completely dry. Take a small cotton pad, wet it lightly and begin scrubbing the areas covered with the mask, making small circles. Finally, rinse with plenty of water. It would be excellent to apply a calming mask or a hydrating mask first, followed by your regular moisturizer. Skin will be left completely smooth and even."
