After applying egg white (or egg yolk) to your face, you rinse it off well with plain water.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
-
Rinsing: Use lukewarm or cool water. Avoid hot water, as it may cook any remaining egg residue and make it harder to remove.
-
Technique: Gently splash water onto your face and use your fingertips to loosen any dried egg. Be thorough, paying attention to areas around your hairline and jawline.
-
Ensuring Removal: Continue rinsing until you're sure all traces of the egg are gone. If necessary, you can use a soft washcloth to gently wipe your face. Be careful not to scrub too harshly.
-
Optional Cleanser: While plain water is generally sufficient, if you feel your skin is still sticky or you want to be extra clean, you can use a mild, gentle cleanser after rinsing with water. However, this is usually not required after using just egg white. Make sure to rinse the cleanser off completely.
-
Pat Dry: After rinsing, gently pat your face dry with a clean, soft towel. Avoid rubbing, which can irritate the skin.
-
Follow-up: You can follow up with your regular skincare routine, such as applying toner, serum, and moisturizer.
Using egg whites (or yolks) as a facial mask is a common DIY beauty treatment. Following the rinsing steps outlined above ensures you effectively remove all traces of the egg, leaving your skin clean and ready for your next skincare steps.
