Sheet masks have long been the trend. Until now! Because more and more brands are bringing a more practical version in the form of a stick onto the market.
Our skin needs an extra dose of moisture, especially in winter. And that’s why face masks of all kinds should not be missing in our beauty routine. Because the masks are usually packed full of highly effective ingredients that give our skin the boost it needs and drive away the unwanted winter blues.
Beauty trend: that’s behind the stick hype
It doesn’t matter whether it’s blush, deodorant or the face mask – sticks are currently very much in vogue and are landing more and more in the shopping carts of numerous beauty nerds. We think it’s all right, because the sticks are super practical and can be easily stowed in our make-up pouch. But what we celebrate most about the sticks is the time they save. Because we don’t always have the peace and quiet for an extensive spa evening when we can take a bath with a mask and a good glass of wine.
This is how the face mask is applied with a stick
Before applying the mask, clean the face thoroughly, unscrew the lid and apply the stick to the desired areas. You will see that the stick glides very easily over your skin, lands exactly where you want it, without any annoying mess – precise application is guaranteed. Even with so-called multimasking, the face mask sticks are absolute game changers. Because you can very quickly place different masks with different effects on different parts of the face – so your skin gets the care it needs.
That is why the practical face mask stick replaces the sheet mask
Sheet masks have done well for a long time and can be found in large numbers on the beauty shelves of perfumeries and drugstores. But let’s be honest, did the sheet masks really convince you? Not us, because the soaked flow masks come in disposable packaging that ends up in the garbage after use – not exactly environmentally friendly. We never really liked the fit either, because the holes provided for the mouth, nose and eyes usually never fit properly. What we found most annoying, however, was that the sheet masks made us unable to move. Because at the slightest movement, the masks slipped off our faces. We will no longer have this problem with the face mask sticks in the future – we like!
