This article explains how to use a compressed paper mask as a DIY skin care tool for your face. Using the mask enables whatever facial product you use to be absorbed more effectively.

Steps

  1. 1
    Soak the compressed mask paper in a liquid. Suitable liquid includes milk, egg, syrup or any other facial product. Leave until the soaked paper becomes swollen.
    • Another nice alternative to soak the mask paper in is toner or floral water of your choice.
  2. 2
    Unfold the soaked paper.

    Wash your face with clean water.[2]

    Personally, I would use this once or twice a week. It really depends on your skin type.

    Yes, but it won't give your skin the nutrients it needs to get that dewy look. You can try to rose water or some type of aloe solution.

    Can you just put something like soap in?

    Not really, as the mask will not be able to absorb it as easily as water/liquid cleanser does.
