Applying an eye contour mask is easy and can be incorporated into your skincare routine for a noticeable difference. Here's how:
Preparation and Application
-
Cleanse: Begin with clean, dry skin around your eyes. This ensures the mask adheres properly and the active ingredients penetrate effectively.
-
Apply: Use a generous layer of the eye mask, ensuring to cover the entire under-eye area and eyelids. Some masks, like the Sisley Eye Contour Mask (https://www.sisley-paris.com/en-US/eye-contour-mask-142100.html), are designed to be applied thickly.
-
Relax: Leave the mask on for the recommended time, typically around 10 minutes. During this time, the mask mostly absorbs into your skin.
Frequency and Follow-Up
- Frequency: Most eye contour masks recommend application two to three times per week, either in the morning or evening, depending on the product's instructions. See the instructions on your specific product. (e.g. Sisley Paris and Nescens masks suggest this frequency).
- Follow-Up: After removing the mask, gently pat any excess product into your skin. Many recommend following up with your favorite eye cream for enhanced benefits. (https://www.nescens.com//en-ch/products/renewing-gel-mask-eye-contour-area)
