Clay-Based Masks黏土型面膜

These are best for absorbing impurities and toxins from the face. Because clay masks remove excess oil, they are ideal for women with oily skin. They also work to minimize pores and make the skin tighter.

此類面膜最適用於吸附臉部皮膚的雜質和毒素。由於黏土型面膜可去除多餘皮脂，因此適合油性膚質的女性使用。此種面膜亦能縮小毛孔，讓皮膚更加緊緻。

 

Mud Masks泥漿面膜

These are similar to clay masks. Since they are water-based, however, they provide more moisture and are better for women with drier skin.

泥漿面膜類似於黏土型面膜，但由於泥漿面膜具水性成分，因此更能保濕皮膚，較適合膚質偏乾的女性使用。

 

Paraffin Masks蜜蠟面膜

含蠟狀物質的蜜蠟面膜適用於所有膚質類型。蜜蠟面膜能為皮膚注入水分，同時幫助改善血液循環和柔嫩皮膚。

 

Peel-Off Masks剝除式面膜

These are good for removing dead skin, cleaning pores, and refining pores and find lines. Most peel-off masks come in a gel form.
