DIY: Make a face mask at home

Making a homemade face mask is both fun and effective when you use ingredients from your own kitchen and pantry. However, it is important to note that homemade face masks must be used immediately after preparation and cannot be saved.

Unlike professional face masks that contain preservatives and are manufactured in a laboratory under controlled conditions, homemade masks contain fresh, organic ingredients that can begin to break down quickly.

Risks of making your own skincare: Also be aware that certain natural ingredients can cause skin irritation because they are not specifically developed for skincare. Always test the mask on a small area of skin first and avoid if you have sensitive skin or previous reactions to any ingredient.

How often you should use a face mask

A face mask is a fantastic part of your skincare routine that can give the skin tailored care. Always start with a cleanser and follow up with toner to prepare the skin.

How often should you use a face mask?

  • Homemade face mask: Max 1-2 times a month
  • Sheet mask: Perfect for daily use or as needed
  • Clay mask: 1–2 times a week
  • Active masks with acids: 1 time a week
  • Collagen mask: 1-2 times a week

What is a face mask?

The face mask is a complement to give the skin that little extra. If you have oily skin, for example, it can be especially good with Pink Clay Mask. Do not be afraid to mix different masks on different parts of your face, so-called multi-masking.
