"The facial masks act from outside in to return to the complexosity, beauty and relaxation to the complexation. They manage not only to stop the signs of aging and tiredness, but also repair, nourish and hydrate the skin."By penetrating in a slow and deep way, "nutritional substances are absorbed for hours."

Depending on its ingredients, its effects are "to hydrate and nurture the skin, smoothing it; eliminating sebum and impurities; reaffirm, relaxing and regenerating; eliminating dead cells and producing a freshness effect; or facilitating the absorption of active principles of actions of actionsSpecific (nutritious, anti -inflammatory, regenerating, soothing, bio -stimulating, etc.).

Basically, according to Vidal, "the mask is formed by a base paste and specific cosmetic assets for every need of the skin that enhance its action."This base paste can be "a mixture of clays and sludge, especially for fatty and congested skin."

Also, "a thick cream for different skin types; or based on oils, butter and waxes for very dry skin."

DRY SKIN

What needs dry skin?"It is clear that, above all, hydration. In addition to protection against all the external factors that resect it," says Cristóbal Vidal.

The care of this type of skins can be done through "creams in the form of creams or ointments, with ingredients that reinforce the lipid barrier and the natural hydration factor."

Hydration is achieved through "vegetable and moisturizing oils, capable of retaining water in the skin, thus avoiding the dehydration caused by environmental factors (wind, cold, heat ...) and its consequences (dryness, peeling and cracks)"

The most used are "glycerin, lactic acid, hyaluronic acid, betaine and urea; all of them are naturally in our skin."

Vidal explains that "vegetable oils and butter compensate for the lack of fat due to the scarce activity of the sebaceous glands."They also reduce "water loss by forming a layer that slows it down on the surface of the epidermis.

The most moisturizing oils, he points out, are "the rich in oleico such as olive, avocado, apricot and almonds."Also the "karité, cocoa, mango and avocado" butter.

To restore cutaneous lipids and reaffirm the skin, they can be added to the "oils rich in omega 3 and 6 fatty acids such as shemp, pink, raspberry, onagra, sheep or grape".

In addition, to reinforce the action of oils and moisturizers, "assets that protect the skin and reinforce the barrier effect such as marine collagen, wheat proteins and natural ceramids" can be added.

Skin with spots

In this case.The main objective is to "protect yourself from solar radiation."Similarly, it is convenient to "force the renewal of the epidermis through exfoliations with hydroxyacids, crushed olive bones, sugar and other exfoliating powders."

As stains can be given in any type of skin, Cristóbal Vidal recommends choosing "a base of according to our needs and adding some assets that can help, such as hydroquinone, arbutin, kojic acid, vitamin C, licorice and default extracts. Also niacinamide (vitamin B3) ".All of them, he clarifies, are oriented "to inhibit the action of amino acid tyrosine, involved in hyperpigmentation."

OILY SKIN

The main objective of fatty skin cosmetics will be "to reduce the amount of sebum on the skin and keep microorganisms that can infect pores and cause grains."It is advisable to remove it with "a micellar water or an dismantling oil."

The best mask is "green clay to which an infusion of plants is added that help close the pores such as geranium, pink or brown".

You can reinforce the action of the mask "with astringent assets that help close the pores and decrease excess fat, such as allantoin, caffeine, beer yeast or ivy and sage extract."

ACNE skin

"Acne is an inflammation of the skin that appears, usually during adolescence, in the face, neck and upper part of the chest and back. It develops at the hair base because of the excess operation of the Sebaceous glands,that are infected forming grains. The bacteria responsible for this infection is the propionibacterium acnes, "says this specialist.

The first objective, then, consists in "disinfecting and healing the skin, while acting against seborrhea."

In this case, the mask base is "of absorbent powders, such as clay or sludge, to which an infusion of plants is added that decrease the production of sebum and close the pore such as fucus, ortiga, Asian spinning, arnica, ivy and ivy and beer yeast".

It can be reinforced with "antiacné assets such as azeláic acid, great -granddaughter, allantoine and vitamins A and B3".

Mature skin

To slow down the aging process, it is essential to "hydrate, nourish and protect the skin from aggressive environmental factors."At the same time, you will have to give "the ingredients that should be naturally to keep it healthy and detoxify it."

It will also favor "periodic exfoliation, because it stimulates the regeneration process and eliminates dead cells."

To protect and regenerate mature skin, the base of the most appropriate mask is "a cream with oils that penetrate in depth such as those of Rosa Mosqueta, Onagra, Jojoba, Argan, wheat germ and borage" to which they will be added "Moisturizing and regenerators such as hydrolyzed wheat proteins, hyaluronic acid, collagen and marine elastin. "

In addition, "vitamins A, B3, C and E, which are antioxidants, help reduce wrinkles produced by sun's rays."

SENSITIVE SKIN

The first thing that a person with this type of skin should avoid, warns Vidal, are "allergenic or irritating substances such as: benzoic acid, lactic acid, hydroxyacid alpha and urea: ascorbic acid (vitamin C) or ingredients containingCinamic acid (several essential oils) ".

Instead, it will appreciate "soft ingredients such as sunflower oil, sesame, hemp, jojoba, grapes, etc."

The base of the mask has to "be soft, in the form of gel or cream to which moisturizers can be added such as hyaluronic acid and glycerin that retain water on the skin and avoid dryness that produces itching and irritation."

In this case, "infusions of anti -inflammatory and soothing plants such as chamomile, calendula, thought, llantén, malva and tila" can also be added.

To reinforce the soothing effect of the mask, "some assets such as the great -grandchildren, which is found in chamomile and vitamin and vitamin" can be added.
