Why use Masques
Using Masque once or twice per week will dramatically increase the elasticity and health of your skin. Our masques contain high amounts of concentrated vitamins and nutrient rich ingredients. When use consistently once or twice per week masque applications allow the active ingredients to penetrated deeply into the skin giving additional hydration and firming benefits. Treatments masques can be sue to control acne dryness or oiliness.
Apply it with soft circular motion to help it get into the various pores, nooks and crannies of your face. You want it to be thick enough that every pore gets some goo into it, but thin enough so that the whole mask can dry and therefore lift away that dirt and oil. A good rule of thumb is that you want to put on just enough so that you can't see the skin any more - but so there is not a 'thickness' to the mask It should be like a layer of aluminum foil pressed down on your skin, as far as a thickness similarity goes. Solid but thin.
Let the mask dry. Each mask will have on it a recommendation of how long this takes, usually from 10 minutes to 30 minutes. You want the mask to be fully dry so it has sucked all of the impurities away from your pores, but you also don't want to sit there for hours! When you are ready, use warm water and a washcloth to wash away the mask. This again keeps the pores open so that any lingering clays are cleaned out of them, and the washcloth helps to get that clay off your face.
When you're done, follow up with a rinse of cold water. The cold water will close the pores back up again, helping them keep future grime from entering!
