Face packs and masks are essential during summer. The onset of summer not only brings fun and frolic associated with outdoor activities but a lot of skin problems too. For people with dry skin, it is hard to lock all the moisture. The high humidity levels can cause peeling and cracking of the dry skin. Summer acne, rashes, sun allergy, and insect bites can make you want to hide and cover-up. All the pollution, dirt, and UV rays can make skin lusterless, boring, and dull. The cumulative effects of sun exposure can increase the risk of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots. Fortunately, most of the summer skin damage is easy to treat. You can have the best summer with these amazing face packs. They lock in the moisture and improve the condition of the skin. Here are some more reasons why you should apply for a summer face pack this summer:
Relaxation –
Face masks not only improve your skin’s overall appearance, but they can also be therapeutic. Some summer face pack that are infused with essential oils like rosemary and mint can stimulate your senses and your spirit.
We recommend the clay-based Pilgrim Volcanic Lava Ash Face Mask that can help in drawing out irritants, excess oil, and pollutants and preventing breakouts. It will leave your skin supple and smooth.
- When you are using a skin mask, you can set some ‘me’ time for yourself. Have a warm water bath, light some candles, put on soothing music, and let the magic begin. It will give you a wonderful experience that will relax your spirit and mind.
Deep cleansing –
Cleansing is an important part of your skincare routine. It removes dirt, makeup, oil, and other impurities from the skin. But, with a face mask, the cleansing process can be taken to a completely new level. A good facial mask will be drawing out impurities hiding under the epidermis’ top layer. It can be said that a mask helps the skin through a complete detoxing process. You will be able to notice immediate changes in your skin.
Unclog pores –
As mentioned-above, masks can help in absorbing excess oils and removing dirt. They also help in removing the dead skin cells accumulated on the skin. Once all the debris is removed from the skin’s surface, your pores will get unclogged too. Clogged pores are a common skin issue. Impurities can get trapped in the pores and are pushed down into the pores where it can lead to the development of bacteria. It can soon turn into blemish, breakouts, or a giant pimple. Using a face mask regularly will help in keeping the skin clean and pores unclogged.
Glowing skin –
Masks can also aid in stimulating blood circulation. The mask dries on the skin and starts to harden. When this mask is removed, it leads to an expansion in the skin’s blood vessels, resulting in an overall improvement in the skin tone. You will have a smoother and softer skin along with a refreshed appearance and a radiant glow.
Help your skincare regimen –
When you use masks, it helps other skin care products work better. It helps your serums, day lotions, and night products get absorbed deeper and quicker. This is why a face mask is a must. When you use a skin mask on a regular basis, you are ensuring that your hydrating, toning and protecting products are performing better and giving the results at a faster pace.
Applying a face mask in simple steps
Step 1: It will be a mess. So, be prepared for it. If you are applying the mask in the tub, you can just cover your face, throat, and neck, and just relax. If not, you have to pull back your hair so that it doesn’t get tangled with the face mask. Wear clothes that you don’t mind getting messy.
Step 2: Start by cleansing your face. Use a cleanser for removing all the surface dirt, makeup, and oil before applying the mask. This will ensure that your skin gets all the benefits your mask can deliver. We recommend Pilgrim Volcanic Lava Ash Face Wash, it is a powerful and gentle cleanser that will not disturb your pH or strip the moisture barrier from the skin. It will help in maintaining the youth of your skin and getting a bouncy and clear skin.
Step 3: Use damp hands while applying the mask directly to your damp skin. You should not rub the face mask into your skin directly. Apply it like you would add frosting to a cupcake. Avoid the eye area, and keep the nostrils clear. The mask can be extended from the face to your neck and throat. You don’t want to end up with a young-looking face with an old, wrinkly neck.
Step 4: Use these 10 minutes for relaxing, styling your hair, checking your email, or doing anything that you want. Just don’t forget to keep track of time and make sure to follow the directions. If the directions say that the mask should be left on for up to 15 minutes, you have to do exactly the same. Don’t extend the time for 20 or 30 minutes. The benefits of the product are tied to the usage directions. You have to follow them properly.
Step 5: The last step is removing the mask. Masks are created to adhere to the skin. Don’t be too rough while removing it. You can use a washcloth and plenty of water for washing away the mask gently. Don’t rub. Just pat the skin dry using a towel.
Before you apply the summer face pack, you can dab some eye cream or eye gel around the eyes. It will protect this delicate area from getting dehydrated because of the face mask. Also, when the face mask gets dried and you have to take it off, you can place a wet, warm washcloth on the face and hold it for a few seconds. Repeat this a couple of times for loosening and dissolving the face mask from the skin. This will make the process of rinsing off the face mask gentler for the skin.
A skin mask is an important part of a good skin care regimen. In just a few minutes, you will be able to see and feel a noticeable transformation.
