Face masks have multiple benefits for the skin. A statement from the pharmacist Rocío Escalante, owner of Arbosana Pharmacy and an expert in dermopharmacy, who assures that they also help well-being. "Devoting 10-15 more minutes to caring for your face with a mask and taking advantage of that time to relax is a pampering that I recommend putting into practice at least once a week."

It is important to choose the facial mask that best suits each one depending on their skin type. There are them in a classic format, such as those presented in cream or mud. But for a few years the ones that have triumphed are the veil masks, which are very comfortable, because then they do not have to be removed with water.

The correct way to use it, according to the expert, is to always apply it on clean and dry skin. And although they are usually used preferably at night, they can also be put on in the morning or at any time. After removing it, you have to continue with the usual ritual: serum, cream, eye contour... You have to be constant to see results.

The 5 benefits of face masks:

1. They clean in depth. The masks help to deep clean the face, thanks to its detox effect. They absorb impurities and excess oil, clean the pores to achieve a cleaner and therefore radiant skin. They are perfect for oily and combination skin, especially.

2. They moisturize the skin. For dry skin, a hydrating face mask helps increase hydration and prevent moisture loss, restoring comfort and preventing the feeling of tightness. They are highly recommended to use at night, any day and especially after a day in the sun.

3. Illuminate. Masks with an illuminating and anti-aging effect manage to give the face juiciness and that shine that is lost over the years. They are the favorites of mature skin, but also of any skin that shows signs of tiredness, due to lack of rest or stress.

4. Smooth wrinkles and rejuvenate. Anti-aging masks make the skin look younger and redensified, with less visible wrinkles, and mitigated signs of fatigue. Ideal for tired or aged skin.

5. Flash effect. Masks usually have a high concentration of active ingredients, which affects the skin. The effects of many masks are immediate and that is why they are also perfect for preparing the skin before an important event, or whenever the face looks dull and tired.

The pharmacist Rocío Escalante strongly discourages the use of homemade masks. What is initially presented as a home treatment can lead to a problem for the skin. Certain ingredients, common in them, can cause irritation. For example, lemon can modify the pH of the skin, which would alter its barrier function. Sensitive skin, with rosacea or acne breakouts, could suffer unwanted irritation if home products are applied that have no control. In addition, as they are products that we have taken out of the fridge, they can carry some bacteria that we would be applying to our skin.
