There are no doubts that skin care for an oily skin is hectic and a perplexing job! That extra shine (rather oil) in your face never seems to go away, the makeup always melts and appears like a disaster, oily skin can be prone to acne too! There are 100s of problems to deal with, but one thing good about oily skin is, it ages really slowly and you wouldn’t notice a wrinkle until you’re 40! Thinking of using sheet masks for oily skin?
But what about hydrating and moisturizing? What about an actual healthy glow? Now there’s a myth that states you do not have to go hard on moisturizing and hydrating if you have an oily skin! It is not true. Oily skin needs to be cleansed and hydrated as well. The extra sebum or oil can store dirt and infect your pores. If you ask how I hydrate my oily skin, let me tell you an amazing way: Sheet masks!
Sheet masks are a part of Korean beauty routine (they’re famous) and are masks made up of fabric or gel soaked in the nutrients called serums. These serums are loaded with extracts, essential oils and vitamins.
How do they work?
When you apply sheet masks, the nutrients presented inside get soaked deep inside your pores and hydrates them. Serums from the sheet masks provide all the necessary nourishment which your skin needs! They plump up the skin, repair and cool your pores down and add softness and a glow eliminating all the excess oil. Unlike other skin care routines, sheet masks are easy to deal with! Just place one on your face and take off 15-20 minutes later and you’re done for the day! (Yes it’s that easy!)
