In the creation phase of a face mask, the ingredients are selected and mixed in different proportions based on the function we want to give to the mask and the final result we want to obtain.
We remind you that the masks must be applied to carefully clean and dry skin: any remnants of make-up must therefore be removed with a specific make-up remover and plenty of water.
