What mask is suitable for dry skin?

As the name implies, dry skin is short of water, so you should choose a mask with good moisturizing ability and water locking ability.

The most important point of dry skin care is to ensure that the skin gets enough moisture. First of all, when choosing clean skin care products, use skin care products with strong alkalinity and fruit acid, and scrub them carefully, so as not to inhibit the secretion of sebum and sweat, destroy the skin barrier and make the skin drier.

After thoroughly cleaning the face with mild and low-sensitivity cleansing soap, immediately use moisturizing lotion or lotion and cream to replenish skin moisture. You can make a moisturizing mask once or twice a week to strengthen moisturizing. After cleaning the skin before going to bed, massage for 3 ~ 5 minutes to improve the blood circulation of the face, and use night cream appropriately. After cleaning your face the next morning, keep your skin moist with lotion or nourishing cream.
