Mask Application

• 1). Clip your hair out of the way and clean your face with a mild cleanser before applying any mask.
  
  
• 2). Apply a mask with your fingertips to your entire face, leaving holes around each eye. The skin around your eyes is sensitive, so leave plenty of room.
  
  
• 3). Pat the mask onto your face gently. Rubbing roughly may irritate the skin.
  
  
• 4). Remove the mask by rinsing it off your face as much as possible instead of scrubbing it off. Don't leave the mask on longer than the recommended time.
  
  
• 5). Pat skin dry -- don't rub -- after rinsing off the mask. Masks make skin more sensitive; rubbing can aggravate your skin.
