Cleansing: Begin with a perfectly clean and dry face.
Application: Using your fingertips or a mask spatula, apply a thin, even layer of the mixture to your face, absolutely avoiding the eye and lip area, where the skin is extremely delicate.
Application Time: Leave the mask on for a maximum of 8 to 10 minutes. Do not exceed this time under any circumstances to minimize the risk of irritation from the acidity of the lemon and the alkalinity of the baking soda.
Removal: To remove, lightly dampen your fingertips with warm water and massage your face in very gentle circular motions for one minute. This will take advantage of the mixture’s gentle exfoliating effect. Then, rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Post-Hydration: Pat your skin dry with a clean towel and immediately apply a nourishing and soothing moisturizer to help restore the skin barrier.
Mandatory Sun Protection: Lemon makes the skin photosensitive. If you apply this mask during the day, it is absolutely essential to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30-50) before going outside. It is best to use it at night.
