COMMON QUESTIONS
WHY SHOULD YOU USE A TONER BEFORE A SHEET MASK?
Using a toner before a sheet mask is like using a primer before applying your foundation. A toner will restore the pH level of your skin and get your face ready to absorb all the excellent essence from your sheet mask.
WHAT KIND OF TONER SHOULD I USE?
It would be best to use either a hydrating or refreshing toner, depending on your skin type. For example, if you are more on the dry side, use a hydrating toner and if you experience oilier skin, use a refreshing toner.
DO I NEED TO APPLY A SERUM AFTER I USE A SHEET MASK?
You don't need to apply a serum after you're done using a sheet mask, but we do recommend you use one to maximize the benefits of your skincare routine. However, if you feel like using a serum is too much, you can skip this step, but make sure that you don't skip out on using a moisturizer to seal in all the ingredients and moisture.
