Masks are my favourite skincare product. Cream masks are great if you want to maintain a healthy glow, plump skin and keep blemishes low. There are many benefits of using cream face masks regularly. Just applying it once a week can improve and re-educate congested, dehydrated or stressed skin.
Cream masks are calming
Do you remember your last facial? And the moment the facial massage part ended. Then you felt the tip of fingers or a brush and the Therapist slowly slavered on the mask. Yes,I love this moment too! It sets the tone for a period of complete rest. Allowing the team of ingredients to penetrate your skin and calm down nerve endings and any conditions like rosacea, eczema, and dryness. Also, after a long day of being on the laptop at home this little ritual can be highly satisfying personally. Hands are no longer typing and finally have the chance to connect with the body holistically.
Benefits of using cream face masks

This No7 Foundation Brush has made the application process so simple. The synthetic hairs smoothen the mask onto your skin gently. The elongated wand gives enough room for my long fingers to hold it comfortably. Besides, its super easy to wash. Just run it under luke warm water and any excess product slips off easily. Place it flat on a clean and dry surface for it to air dry.
