4 Factors to Look For While Buying a Face Pack for Glowing Skin

With busy routines and rushed deadlines, we often forget that our skin also needs some pampering to stay fresh and healthy. Using safe and gentle face packs for glowing skin (that contain the goodness of essential skincare ingredients) is an obvious choice in such situations. 

Face packs can moisturize your skin to make it look fresh and radiant in no time. They pull off dead skin cells, help rejuvenate your skin, and reduce the appearance of premature aging. They also give your skin a healthy, youthful glow. We recommend that you use it once a week for the best results.

What is a face pack? 

A face pack is a thick layer of healthy skincare ingredients that spreads on your face to thoroughly clean and deeply moisturize your skin. Before diving into the factors to look for while buying a face pack for glowing skin, let’s discuss what a face pack is and how it differs from a face mask. While we use the terms face mask and face pack interchangeably, the results are comparative. 

A face pack, thicker in consistency than a mask, tends to set on your skin. The application of the former limits the movement of facial muscles. While the application is quite similar, a face mask addresses many skin problems like inflammation and signs of aging. Face packs thus help restore the natural glow and beauty of the skin. 

What are the benefits of a face pack? 

Face packs provide intensive care to the skin. You should use them to replenish and restore the tightness of your skin and reduce any signs of aging. The other benefits of a face pack include the following:

• They remove the excess oil from your face and extract all the dirt, dust, and impurities on your skin. 
• They help achieve an even tone for your skin by reducing the appearance of any dark spots. 
• Their natural ingredients help treat skin issues such as inflammation and uneven skin tone.

With these extraordinary benefits of a face pack for glowing skin, you would be excited to try it on your face! But how do you pick a suitable face pack?

Factors to look for while buying a face pack for glowing skin

Give your skin some treatment, love, and care (TLC) to help it recover from fatigue, sun exposure, pollution, and stress. Start with a basic skincare regime and make sure to follow it consistently. The routine of cleansing, toning, and moisturizing (CTM) will go a long way. 

Follow this up with a face pack once a week or once in two weeks. Select the best face pack to get effective results for glowing, healthy, and radiant skin. Before buying a face pack for glowing skin, you should determine the skin concerns that you want to treat. 

1. Light and bright skin – If you are looking for a face pack to lighten and whiten your skin, choose a face pack that contains natural ingredients such as turmeric and saffron. They have antibacterial properties that reduce pigmentation, brightening your skin and leaving a soothing, calm feeling. 
   
2. Oily skin – If you are looking for a face pack to control the oil on your face, choose a face pack with ingredients such as tea tree oil. It dries up your skin while leaving some moisture and hydration that your skin needs. Follow up with a moisturizer for oily skin to prevent acne and pimples. 
   
3. Dull skin – If you have dull skin and want a face pack that helps reduce dryness, choose an ingredient like coco or coffee. Honey gently exfoliates your skin, and papaya provides nourishment, hydration, and moisture. 
   
4. Acne – If you are battling acne, you need something that can fight acne or go to its roots and free your skin from the cause of acne. Clay packs significantly help in reducing acne from its root cause.  

Choose Mamaearth face packs for glowing skin to get flawless skin that radiates beauty. For example, you may opt for its Coco Face Mask for dull and dry skin. It features Coco, Coffee and Glycerin that protects from free radicals and keeps the skin intensely hydrated.

How do you apply a face pack?

Pamper your skin at least once a week by applying face packs that fight acne, dryness, or other skin concerns. To get the best results, follow these steps: 

• Cleanse – Start by cleaning your face off all the dirt and impurities. Let your pores be open so they can soak in the goodness of the ingredients of the face pack. 
• Apply – Use a brush or your fingers to apply an even layer of face pack across your face. 
• Let it dry – Let it dry completely for 15-20 minutes. Do not keep it for longer, as it might also remove the essential oils from your face. 
• Rinse – Rinse it off with lukewarm water. Rub the dry pack in a circular motion and gently remove it without scratching your face. 
• Moisturize – Make sure you moisturize your face after applying a face pack. Use an oily moisturizer on acne-prone skin that is non-greasy and does not clog your pores. 

What’s good for your skin?

Face packs with natural, healthy skincare ingredients get you the best results. After removing a face pack, use an oily skin moisturizer. Avoid face packs with harsh chemicals, and look for natural products. 

Here are a few magic ingredients used in Mamaearth face packs:

• Turmeric and besan: These ingredients give you bright, glowing skin. Turmeric has antibacterial properties, while besan helps in the exfoliation of the skin. 
• Coffee: The caffeine content in coffee has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It promotes even skin tone, tightens pores, and soothes the skin. 
• Sandalwood – Sandalwood with honey gets you the goodness of both. It contains antibacterial properties and also helps prevent pigmentation. 
• Saffron: Saffron contains antioxidants and vitamins that moisturize and soothe the skin. It evens skin tone and encourages cell formation and repair.
