Use a moisturising face mask after a clay mask for clean radiant skin"},"content":{"rendered":"

This probably isn’t a very new tip, but I think its worth giving a go.<\/p>\n
I sometimes use a clay mask off and on for dealing with spots and the like and I like the super clean feel of my skin after my clay or deep purifying mask sessions. I regularly use the Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Mask or Aesop Primrose Facial Cleansing Mask<\/a> and they both make my skin feel lovely and clean… but also a little dry.<\/p>\n I would usually then follow up quite quickly with my usual skincare – moisturizer and toner. But I experimented recently with following up my clay or purifying mask with a hydrating mask and I loved how my skin felt and looked after that!<\/p>\n Clay masks or deep cleansing masks help draw out impurities on the skin but as anyone who has used it will realize, your skin does tend to feel a little tight after that. Moisturizing immediately after a clay mask helps, but if you use a moisturizing mask immediately after that, the skin feels much more comfortable.<\/p>\n I usually use the Clarins HydraQuench Cream Mask<\/a> which does the job very well or a moisturizing sheet mask<\/a>. Sometimes, if I don’t use a moisture mask, I follow up with a sleeping pack, like the Laneige Water Sleeping Pack EX<\/a> or just applying a thick layer of gel cream to act as a mask<\/a>.<\/p>\n I find that this two step process helps my skin regain its plump hydrated texture and feels more comfortable. Also, my skin looks better too – brighter and if I use a sheet mask, cooler to the touch and pores look smaller.<\/p>\n Do give it a try and see how it works for you \ud83d\ude00 Or if you already do this, do share the 2 masks you use – I’m always curious to see what works for others \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n Paris B<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This probably isn’t a very new tip, but I think its worth giving a go.
