What Is Collagen Mask ?

www.findtheSpa.com

A collagen mask is a beauty product that helps to reduce the signs of aging in the skin and is intended for use on the face. As the skin ages, it loses collagen, which is a kind of protein that makes up a large percentage of connective tissue. As such, collagen has been referred to as "the glue" for the human structure. As people age, the collagen in their bodies begins to deplete. This depletion process usually begins around the age of twenty-five.

In order to reverse the loss of this collagen, particularly in the face, people use topical collagen masks to help to replace the lost collagen and promote the development of new collagen. A collagen mask is usually applied to the face and allowed to remain on the skin for a specified amount of time. During this time, the ingredients in the mask are absorbed into the skin.

A collagen mask may be packaged as a cream or as a sheet soaked in the product. Such sheets are usually individually packaged. When they are removed from their packaging, they are laid upon the face and left there for a specified period of time. The sheets are pre-cut to fit closely over the topography of the face and they have openings for the mouth and nostrils. Some masks cover the eyes, treating the eye area as well as the rest of the face, while others have holes cut out for the eyes.
