| Basic facial mask *Before applying a mask, find a place where you can lie back without being disturbed. Spread a towel out where you will rest your head in case your mask drips. *choose and prepare a recipe. *Pull your hair back off your face. Use a cloth head band ot a head band with 'teeth' for this if you have short hair or bangs. Long hair goes nicely back in a pony tail. *Wash your face so it's nice and clean. *Run a washcloth under warm water, squeeze it out and hold it over your face for a few seconds to dampen your face. If you've just had a steam, skip this step. *Apply the mask all over your face and neck (if you like), avoiding your eye area. Lie back and let the mask work for 10-15 minutes. If it starts to feel itchy or uncomfortable, less time is ok. *If your mask is particularly chunky (like oatmeal), use your washcloth to gently wipe it off your face, shaking the bits of mask into the trash (this is the trick to avoiding clogged drains). Once it's mostly off, rinse your face with warm water. *Discard any leftover mask. |
