Manage your time correctly to make the most of your beauty treatment.

How to apply chin firming masks
Any lifting masks for the chin can (and even recommended) be applied not only to this area, but also to the entire face, front of the neck and décolleté. In most cases, the composition is applied to the affected area in a thick layer or in several layers.
After distributing the mask, you need to take a horizontal position, throwing your head back. In this position, the skin in the neck and chin area is stretched as much as possible, enhancing the effect of the mask. For the same purpose, you can tie your chin tightly with a napkin or a small towel.
The optimal frequency of such procedures is 1-2 times a week, the exposure time on the skin is from 15 minutes to half an hour. Ordinary warm water is used as a wash.
It is important not to forget that lifting masks for the chin, like other products, are applied only to the skin cleared of dirt and cosmetics. Otherwise, the ingredients of the composition will not be absorbed completely and will even contribute to clogging of the pores.
