Facial masks - question?

[*Emily*]

How often should facial masks be used? How many times a week would you recommend? I have sensitive dry skin. Thanks all.

Depends on the type of mask and what your trying to achieve.
Hydrating masks are usually used once a week,
all others would depend on how sensitive your skin is. Get back to me.

I think it's clay or mud mask. I'm not really trying to achieve anything, it just feels nice. My skin is mildly sensitive - it reacts to most products that aren't soap-free, fragrance-free, and made for sensitive skin. This mask doesn't have a bad affect though. My skin gets dry easily, so I need some input on how much I should use it.

Yes, a little, but I use a good moisturizer.

Once a week sounds like a good plan.

Hmmmh, if u feel too dry....try to use it once in 2 weeks instead of once a week....or use double treatment, first use the clay mask, then put a hydrating mask.....so u'll get ur pore clean becoz of the clay mask, n u'll skin will be hydrated too in the same time......

Just out of interest, what would happen if you were to mix two masks together, to save time?

I would not do this, some products react badly when mixed with another.
As well it would not give you any benifits at all they are made to handle one thing at a time. If you want something that as a combo effect you better off to buy a product that does this.

I wouldn't, it may cause a bad reaction. Better safe than sorry.
