Understanding Sleeping Mask and Its Benefits for Face Skin Beauty

Understanding Sleeping Mask

Sleeping mask is designed as the last treatment step before going to bed. Although the meaning is a mask, this product is not the same as ordinary masks, because its use is more practical. In general, the mask is used in a way applied on the face and then wait until it dries. There is also a tissue-made mask that is simply affixed to the face. But both still require you to be still, barely moving, until the mask is completely dry or pervasive.

As the name implies, sleeping mask can be used overnight. Simply apply on face before bed, like applying a night cream, then you are free to sleep without worry of falling products. Sleeping mask is also known as sleeping pack and leave-on mask .

Differences Sleeping Mask and Night Cream

Nutritional content of sleeping mask is generally richer than night cream. However, the texture is not much different, ie cream or gel. Once applied to cleansed facial skin, wait 30 minutes before bed for sleeping mask to be absorbed by the skin and not attached to the pillow or bedspread.

If the use of night cream is applied enough to absorb, sleeping mask should be cleaned (washed with water) the next morning. Additionally, unlike nightly night cream, sleeping mask is recommended only once or twice a week. However, this depends on the recommended use of the product.

Benefits of Sleeping Mask

Night is the best time to care for the skin. At night, you tend to be free of things that can damage skin

Night is the time for skin cells to improve, especially at 10 pm to 2 am. When the body sleeps soundly, there is increased metabolism and skin renewal. Therefore, it is important to get quality sleep during those hours.

Benefit of using sleeping mask is to help skin repair, how:

  • Maintaining skin moisture
    Sleeping mask is able to lock moisture on the skin surface compared to a more volatile night cream. In addition, the sleeping mask is also considered capable of being absorbed deeper in the skin layer.
  • Protect skins
    Although able to penetrate the skin deeper, there is a part of the sleeping mask     that is not absorbed and stuck in the skin surface. Its function is to protect the skin from dust and dirt that can clog the pores, as well as locking for the active ingredient to work optimally.

Hydrating or maintaining skin moisture is an important factor for you who want youthful skin. As we age, collagen production diminishes, the natural moisture of the skin is getting lost, causing the appearance of wrinkles. Therefore, you need product assistance such as sleeping mask to keep skin moist, especially during sleep.

Choose a sleeping mask that contains ceramide , hyaluronic acid (hyalyronic acid), and peptides. These ingredients help collagen production and lock in moisture for 8 hours, so that it can slow the appearance of wrinkles.

Despite the promising benefits of sleeping mask, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist, especially if you have sensitive skin, given that the sleeping mask is attached to the skin for long periods of time.
