It's officially summer 2022 and we are here to help you put your best face out there! Sheet masks are a great way to keep your face moisturized and hydrated during the intensely hot summer months and they are super convenient too! Unlike face masks that are applied and then washed off, sheet masks contain serums meant to remain on the face, even after the mask is removed. But before we get ahead of ourselves, what exactly are face sheet masks?
Sheet masks originated from South Korea and have fast found themselves a place in the western cosmetic industry. You may have noticed sheet masks in your local beauty stores before, they are face-shaped masks sometimes made of then pieces of cloth with holes cut out for your eyes, nose, and mouth. Some masks however are designed to fit just under the eye, such as our R.E.R. Rapid Eye restore mask which is shaped perfectly to contour the eye area to rapidly and visibly restore expression lines and wrinkles that tend to appear.
Depending on what specific ingredients they are infused with, face sheet masks are beneficial in targeting a number of skin concerns such as dry skin, acne, or even blemishes. There are even face masks for skin brightening and lightening such as Face Mask for Skin Brightening. Some masks are even designed to be combined with other skin care tools, a good example of this is the Hydrogel Mask which was designed to be used with the Dp Dermaceuticals LED Mask and aims to enhance at-home phototherapy treatment results by increasing the effectiveness.
Face sheet masks are usually soaked in serums that are infused with ingredients that are meant to stay on the skin rather than be rinsed away. At DP Dermaceuticals, all our sheet masks are made from renewable, refined plant fiber in a patented unibody joining method designed to cover every contour of the face and neck.
Benefits of sheet masks
Hydration and nourishment
Sheet masks are the ultimate hydrating and nourishing tools. Dp Dermaceuticals Hyla Active 3D Sculptured Mask is infused with nourishing ingredients and is designed to deliver the feeling of intense moisture and recovery support for stressed and irritated skin. Once your skin soaks in the serums, it gets rid of all underlying dryness, ensuring that your cells are filled with moisture and completely enriched. When using other kinds of masks, the ingredients are left open to the air whereas a sheet mask’s ingredients are trapped between your skin and the mask and ensure that you get maximum benefits.
Skin brightening
Sheet masks can also be infused with ingredients to add radiance and clear the complexion. Face Mask for Skin Brightening is perfect for this. With ingredients that sedate pigment formation, it brightens and lightens the appearance of uneven skin tone and discolored skin. Whether you have sun spots, extra tan, or skin discoloration, face sheet masks offer radiance and make the facial skin even-toned, with a glowing complexion, lesser scars, and greater glow.
Relaxation
Sheet masks also make for a great relaxation tool. If you're having a spa day at home,a great addition to your routine would be the Hyla Active 3D Sculptured Face mask. It offers a refreshing scent and cooling sensation because it's infused with peppermint oil, this along with the soft, silky feel of the fiber is a great way to sit back and relax while your skin gets the attention it deserves.
In addition to all these wonderful benefits, face sheet masks have a distinct advantage over other masks in that they are usually priced lower and are basically hassle-free. Sheet masks are relatively easy to use compared to other masks which may contain a combination of creams and lotions and they require no hassle or cleaning up at all!
Face sheet masks are meant for single use and are used after the cleansing and toning. They’re easy to use! Simply open the packet and take care not to squeeze the mask, and gently put it over your face aligned with the opening for the eyes, nose, and mouth. You then leave the mask on for 15-20 minutes and let it do its magic, after which you can choose to rinse or let it soak in.
