Tell me more about the best sheet mask ever
Deeply soothing and nourishing, the Medik8 Ultimate Recovery Bio Cellulose Mask is ideal for all skin types. Since it’s free of alcohol and fragrance, it’s especially safe for those of you with sensitive skin!
What makes it the best sheet mask though? It has to do with its magical ingredients. This sheet mask is made with bio-cellulose - a material that creates an impenetrable veil that locks in moisture tight and deeply infuses the serum into the skin. The serum is also enriched with marine algae, hyaluronic acid and natural zinc which work hard to leave you with a supple, dewy and completely refreshed complexion.
Plus, it can be used after professional treatments such as microneedling and microdermabrasion! If you’ve ever gotten microneedling done professionally, you’ll know how good it feels to put anything cold on your face (if you’ve not had it done, spoiler: you look sunburned as heck).
How do you use a sheet mask?
Using sheet masks is super easy:
- Start with a clean face.
- Take the sheet mask out of its individual pack and gently unfold it in your hands. Peel away a single side of the outer protective layer.
- Holding the top of the mask, align it with your forehead and press it gently onto your face.
- Smooth down the rest of the mask onto your face, making sure it aligns with your eyes, mouth and nose. Then take off the second protective layer.
- Let it sit for 15 minutes (call your bestie, find a Netflix show, run a bath - you do you).
- Gently lift away the mask and massage the remaining serum into the skin.
Where does it fit in with the rest of your routine?
You can use this sheet mask as a weekly hydrating treatment or whenever your skin needs a boost! Always apply it to freshly cleansed skin, otherwise the mask can’t work its magic.
Do I need to moisturise after a sheet mask?
It’s not always necessary to use a moisturiser after a sheet mask, but it is a great idea to do so. The moisturiser will lock in all the goodness from the sheet mask’s serum and will prevent any product from evaporating.
