The fundamental difference between sheet masks and washable masks
1. Packaging: cloth masks vs. face masks
Facial masks usually come in jars or tubes and can be reused, while sheet masks can only be used once.
Therefore, cloth masks are more hygienic than face masks, as unwashed hands can endanger the spread of bacteria and infection.
However, the disadvantage is that they need to be refilled more frequently.
2. Exfoliation Sheet Mask vs. Face Mask
If you want to exfoliate, then clay masks are the best choice. Due to the ingredients of the mask and the way it is applied and dried, slight exfoliation occurs.
The advantage of sheet masks is that they can replenish moisture. Because they are made of paper or natural fibers, they will not fall off.
2. Removal: Sheet Mask vs. Face Mask
Face masks and sheet masks also differ in application and removal. Masks must be applied to the entire face with fingers or other tools.
Removing the mask can be a bit troublesome, because once the mask is completely dry, warm water and a towel are the best way to remove the mask.
On the other hand, whether it is a paper mask or a natural fiber mask, the way of application and removal is basically the same, that is, the mask is applied to the skin.
3. The ingredients of sheet masks vs. face masks
As mentioned before, the ingredients of face masks and sheet masks are different. Face masks usually contain clay because it dries firmly on the skin and has skin care benefits.
Sheet masks, on the other hand, mainly consist of the mask sheet itself, which can be paper or biocellulose masks made from natural fibers such as coconut pulp.
The concentrated serum is then added to the wet wipes and packaged for use. Depending on your skin problems, a clay mask or a sheet mask may be your best choice.
Remember: face masks are great for congested and acne-prone skin, while sheet masks are great for dry skin and anyone who needs extra moisturizing.
4. Mix and match
One of the great things about face masks is that they can be combined as needed. For example, if you notice blemishes in certain areas, apply a face mask there to soothe and reduce inflammation.
You can apply as many masks as you want on your face, and each mask can treat different problems.
This is a decided advantage over sheet masks that are applied to the entire face instead of just a few areas.
5. Use sheet masks instead of face masks
The benefit of mixing your own face masks and face masks is that you don’t have to use a cream or clay mask every day. This can be too much for your skin and can dry it out.
Sheet masks are nourishing and gentle enough for daily use. Masks are best used 2-3 times a week.
6. Instant glow
If you want a radiant complexion, a sheet mask is the best choice. After slimming down, your skin will look refreshed and have a youthful glow. Perfect for use before makeup.
The effects of a sheet mask are immediate, while a face mask will work a little slower and you’ll notice a noticeable change in your skin over time!
7. Acne-prone skin
If you have blemish-prone skin, you may be a little hesitant because face masks are considered moisturizing. Oily skin, however, may need to be cautious because breakouts may occur.
Therefore, a clay mask is the best choice. Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients can treat and soothe existing skin imperfections and eliminate future ones.
8. Sleeping
Is it OK to sleep with a sheet mask on? This is probably one of the most common questions we receive at Procoal. The answer is: it depends on the mask.
Clay masks, which become hard when they dry, must be removed before going to bed.
Sleeping with a sheet mask on may seem fine, but as the mask dries, your skin will start to reabsorb the moisture it has already absorbed!
The best sleeping masks are cream masks, whose instructions clearly state that you can safely take a nap while using them.
9. Time Masks vs. Sheet Masks
Sheet masks are the right choice if you want to see results quickly. The application is simple and clean. Sheet masks have a similar exposure time to sheet masks: about 15-30 minutes.
Sheet masks can be more time-consuming because they require a tool or must be applied to the face from the tube/jar with your fingers.
10. It’s all up to you
To be honest, there is a big difference between sheet masks and sheet masks. The best way to find out the difference is to try them for yourself. You and your skin will notice the difference.
Try as many masks as you like to find the one that works best for you!
Here are 10 differences between cloth and face masks. Whichever you choose, they will have huge benefits for your skin and are an easy way to improve your skin.
