ALOE VERA FACIAL SHEET MASK

WHAT IS A SHEET MASK?

Face masks, also known as sheet masks, are single-use mostly cotton pads that have been soaked in powerful skin-rejuvenating ingredients. True to their name, these masks are often of the full-face variety and are reminiscent of the early hockey masks that goalies (or an infamous 80s film villain) wore.

Most face masks are designed to rest on the curves of your face. While there, the masks infuse their active ingredients into the skin for slightly visible results in a short amount of time. It’s this delivery of skin-smoothing ingredients that have earned face masks their popularity.

The real power of the face mask lies in its power to lock those active ingredients against your skin. Think of it this way: most skin care products evaporate after a few minutes on your skin. But it can take upwards of twenty minutes or more for the ingredients to really penetrate your skin. So, most of the time, the moisturizer you put on your face is evaporating before it can do any real good. Enter the face mask. The sheet forms a barrier between your skin and the air around it to keep the moisture where it belongs: on your skin.

Another benefit of the sheet mask is that it doesn’t get dry and hard like many of the mudor cream-based masks on the market. These spreadable masks do a great job of drawing out excess oil (clay masks, we’re thinking of you), but when they dry, they crack and break. This allows moisture—the thing that all skin (normal, dry, or oily) needs most of all—to literally slip through the cracks. The sheet mask doesn’t have that problem, but it certainly is messy, wet, and sometimes difficult to apply.

The mask keeps moisture in contact with your skin for as long as you wear it. As miraculous and

wonderful as all that sounds, face masks can only do so much. And that’s where we start to really see the benefits of the alternative, which we’ll talk about in a moment.

What are the different types of sheet masks:

1) Based on the skin issues they targeted

• Hydrating or moisturizing or repairing (contents hyaluronic acid, ceramides, squalene snail extract, Aloe Vera, etc.)
• Calming (e.g., containing Aloe Vera, chamomile, under eye, etc.)
• Purifying or clarifying (e.g., containing alpha hydroxyl acids, etc.)
• Regenerating(e.g. containing Aloe Vera with essential vitamins, etc.)
• Brightening or lightening (containing Aloe Vera, vitamin C, licorice extract, etc)
• Firming or anti-aging (e.g., containing Aloe Vera with collagen, retinol, etc)

2) Based on the material they are composed of:

• Fiber or thin cotton sheets: fiber mask features a non-woven fabric; they have a coarse texture that feels

and behaves like paper. Fiber masks are very inexpensive and have some capacity to replenish moisture to your skin

• Pulp: pulp masks have a finer texture than fiber masks. Rayon cellulose is an example of a mask created from pulp.
• Hydrogel: Hydro-gel masks offer better performance than low-end fiber and pulp masks. They are typically produced as a “mask system”, with top and bottom halves that are applied separately. The hydrogel is made of polymers that are very absorbent and hold water against your skin.
• Bio cellulose (a fruit or vegetable fiber). Bio cellulose mask fabrics provide skin-tight dermal adhesion, allowing them to transfer cosmetic ingredients very efficiently. The texture of the bio-cellulose mask feels like a cool, moist gel whose underlying structure is incredibly strong and resilient.
