Facial masks are one of my favorite skin care products. They’re easy to apply, fun to use and are great at delivering results. My favorite thing about applying a good facial mask is the feeling of tightened and toned skin after a single use.Should everyone use a facial mask? Absolutely. Facial masks are the perfect skin care treatment to help you with your skin care concerns. The right facial mask can help hydrate skin, remove excess oils and help improve the appearance of your pores. They’re also an excellent way to help pull out impurities. Another advantage of wearing a facial mask: the feeling of being pampered like you’re at a spa from the comfort of your own home.Every healthy skin care regimen includes daily use and weekly use products. You can use a facial mask once a week, or you can use it more then that depending on your skin and your skin care concerns. Both men and women can benefit significantly from using a mask and here’s why.5 Reasons to Apply a Facial Mask Right NowRelaxationFacial masks don’t just offer results that improve the overall appearance of your skin, they can also be quite therapeutic. When they’re infused with aromatic essential oils like mint and rosemary, a facial mask can lift your spirit by stimulating your senses. Using a facial mask should be treated as a luxury. Set aside a bit of “me” time when you decide to give yourself a mask. Draw a hot bath, light some candles and let the magic of the mask begin to work. You’ll be drawn into a wonderful, sensory experience that will not only relax the mind and spirit but will also leave you with fabulous looking skin.Deep cleansingSure, cleansing each day helps to clean your skin by removing dirt, oil, makeup and impurities from the surface of the skin. But did you know that proper masking takes the cleansing process to a whole new level? Only a good facial mask can help to draw out impurities that hide beneath the top layers of the epidermis. Some people say that their skin goes through a “detoxing” when they use a mask, because they actually notice the changes in the skin while this is happening. Masks are incredible at providing this deeper cleansing process, which leads to an improvement in the appearance of pores that you can see and feel. Who doesn’t love that?Unclog poresMasking with a product that contains Bentonite clay helps to remove dirt and absorb excess oils. It’ll also help to remove the build-up of dead skin cells that accumulate on our skin. When you remove all the debris from the surface of your skin, it’ll help to unclog pores, too. We all know that clogged pores are nothing but trouble. Yucky stuff gets trapped in your pores and gets pushed deep down into the pore where bacteria can develop. Once that bacteria starts to grow it’s all over for our skin, because we will soon get a blemish, a flurry of breakouts or even one giant pimple that will wreak havoc on our life for several days. Regular facial masks help to keep your skin surface clean and our pores unclogged. This is an excellent reason to use your facial mask right now.Glowing skinMasks, especially those with tingly mint in the formulation, can help stimulate blood circulation. The process of the mask drying on your skin and beginning to harden, along with the removal of the mask, causes an expansion in the blood vessels in your skin. This ensures an overall improvement in skin tone. You’ll be left with softer-feeling and smoother-looking skin, and you’ll also notice a radiant glow and more refreshed appearance. So, relax, feel the tingle, breathe in the minty aroma and wait for your skin transformation.Helps your overall regimenMasking helps all of your other skin care products work more efficiently. If you want your day lotions, serums and nighttime products to be absorbed by your skin quicker and deeper, then a facial mask is a must. By masking on a regular basis, you can ensure that your toning, hydrating and protecting products will all perform better, providing you with the results you’re looking to achieve at a much faster pace.Apply a Facial Mask in 5 Simple StepsStep 1: Be prepared to make a mess. If you’re going to apply a facial mask while relaxing in the tub, you don’t have to worry about making a mess. You can cover your face, neck and throat and just relax. If you don’t have time for a bath, then take the time to pull back your hair so it’s not near your face. Be sure to wear clothing that you don’t mind getting messy. Chances are, you’ll make a bit of a mess when you use a mask. But, hey, that’s the fun of it all.Step 2: I always recommend starting with a freshly cleansed face. Use your daily cleanser to remove all of the surface dirt, oils and makeup before you apply your mask. This will help to ensure that you receive all of the benefits your face mask was designed to deliver.Step 3: Using damp hands, apply your mask directly onto your damp skin. Remember, it’s called a face mask for a reason

People paying more attention to components before, has set up new game rules for skin care products, but eventually, skin care is always inseparable from the effect. In 2019, NBC's “instant dissolvable nano-fiber mask” enabled the tightening effect of the mask to be further improved. At the PCR 2020 International Conference on Personal Care R&D Innovation, Qiu Xiaofeng, vice-president (R&D) of NBC, has elaborated how nano-technology can make the effect of skincare products be enhanced significantly.Qiu Xiaofeng stated that nano-technology has been widely used in the field of cosmetics because it can give full play to the effect of active substances.  With the development of science and technology, more and more technologies have been applied to the cosmetics industry. Nano-technology has been widely used in the field of cosmetics because it can give full play to the effect of active substances.(Applications and special effects of nano-technology in the field of skin care) Nano-technology can be applied in the field of cosmetics in two ways: firstly, the cosmetics are made into nanometer powder in a nanometer particle size; secondly, the nano-carrying system, which mainly includes liposomes, solid lipid nano-particles, nano-emulsions, and micro-spheres. Of the two aspects, nano-carrier technology has attracted more attention as it can ensure the stability of sensitive components, and enhance the transdermal properties of active ingredients, and assist in maximizing skin care benefits. Nano technology, safe or not? Although nano technology has been widely used in the field of cosmetics, many consumers have some misunderstandings about its safety because they are not familiar with it. Scientifically speaking, a product will change significantly in physical and chemical properties when it reaches the nano-level.  Correspondingly, when the material of a skincare product is prepared to the nano-level, it can effectively help the active substances in the skin care product to penetrate into the cuticle; namely, to a certain extent, active substances can give full play to its effect, so as to repair damaged skin. (The principle of nano technology's strong permeability for cosmetics)  Double innovations — the carrier membrane material and the formula The development and promotion of nano-level skin care products cannot be separated from strong technical support. At the Conference, Vice-president Qiu has showed the guests nanofiber membrane technology enabling NBC to be closely linked with regenerative medicine cosmetology. Featured with double innovations — the carrier membrane material and the formula, this technology improves the carrying efficiency of skin care components through nano-carrier, releases the effective components into the skin, and achieves the "transdermal" skin care effect through further diffusion.For instance, in the instant dissolvable nano collagen firming mask, patented electro-spinning technology is adopted, matched with nano-carrier technology, so that nano-carrier makes active components such as collagen, fibronectin and polypeptide exist in the fiber in the form of adsorption and coating.(Instant tightening dissolvable mask series)Different from traditional wet masks, the instant dissolvable nano collagen firming mask is in the state of solid essence with high concentration. It adopts nano-level ultrafine fiber, so that the active components can penetrate into skin and exert their effects. It has five advantages: no corrosion, instant absorption, deep penetration, close fitting, wrinkle removal and skin whitening.Therefore, when matched with patented electro-spinning technology, the penetration promotion technology with nano as a carrier, in which active molecules of modern biotechnology are put into skin care products, will undoubtedly bring new development to the field of skin care by greatly improving the efficacy of skin care products. No matter what the next trend is in the cosmetics industry, R&D meeting skin care needs is the key under the general trend of skin care in a scientific way. At the International Conference on Personal Care R&D Innovation, several industry heavyweights have shared with participants about concrete examples, revealing the importance of technology upgrading to the R&D of personal skin care products. NBC's ground-breaking R&D concept and achievements have changed the traditional skin care model and provided one of the feasible directions for the future development of the industry.
