Considerations about cream masks for blackheads


Recall that all cases of cutaneous alterations are personal, and the cause is not the same for all those who are affected. What works for one person does not necessarily mean that it works in another. If a mask does not give results in the short, do not despair, but vary. We must also be aware that the facial masks can easily irritate the skin, especially if you leave on for too long and then they begin to dry.

Warning: before applying any face mask, we recommend that you perform a patch test on a small piece of skin (eg behind the ear ) to test the sensitivity of the individual!
