There is no point in using an occasional face mask as the required results will not be realized this way. It is important to use face masks at least twice a month, especially in summer and winter when the heat and cold takes its toil on the skin. There are many types of face masks available in the market today. However it is preferable and better to use home made face masks and not the commercial and manufactured face masks. This is because these face masks always have chemicals and preservatives.
Though it may be difficult to choose the right face mask, it is important for you to choose the right face mask for yourself by the ingredients used in making the face masks and your skin type. Age is not a factor when choosing the right face mask for yourself. Its ingredients help you decide on the right face mask. The mud masks are effective in smoothening the skin while there are other face masks that prove to be effective in curing acne problems. Whichever the face mask, it is great for the skin as it helps tone and smooth skin. Many homemade face masks can also make pores appear smaller and make your skin better able to absorb moisture.

Why do we need a face mask?
A face mask revitalises, stimulates and exfoliates the skin. It also functions as a deep pore clenser. A good face mask helps to free clogged pores, loosens the blackheads, removes dirt and recharches the cells. There are several types of face masks available in the market. Some need to be washed away while some need to be peeled off.
How long should one keep the face mask?
That varies from individual to individual depending upon the nature of the skin as also on the quality of face-pack. Normally, the duration should be for about ten to twenty minutes. The important factor is that the pack should get dried. Then wash the face with luke-warm water and afterwards apply a thin layer of cold-cream or a moisturizer.
