A facial is a family of skin care treatments for the

light therapy facials
, hydrafacials and mini-facials.

Facial mask

There are different kinds of masks (e.g., clay,

eye bags, sagging lids, dark circles, Green Tea face mask, puffiness,[2] and more. Some masks are designed to dry or solidify on the face, almost like plaster
; others just remain wet. The green face mask is very essential and benefited. Using a green Tea face mask for reducing acne to protecting against skin cancer, this face mask has benefits for everything. Green tea contains powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Those properties help in calming redness and irritation. A green tea face mask can be a comforting solution for sunburn, a rash, or any other skin irritation.The mask is a refreshing drink for our skin. This green tea masks give our skin a big drink of water, and they make your skin soft and smooth. So, does a green tea face mask work? In one sentence, “Undoubtedly, it works.” [3]

Masks are removed by either rinsing the face with water, wiping off with a damp cloth, or peeling off of the face. Duration for wearing a mask varies with the type of mask, and manufacturer's usage instructions. The time can range from a few minutes to overnight. Those with

sensitive skin are advised to first test out the mask on a small portion of the skin, in order to check for any irritations. Some facial masks are not suited to frequent use. A glycolic
mask should not be used more frequently than once a month to avoid the risk of burning the skin.

Masks can be found anywhere from

pores; a cream, which stays damp to hydrate the skin; sheet-style, in which a paper mask is dampened with liquid to tone and moisturize the skin; and lastly, a hybrid/clay and cream form that includes small beads for removing dead surface skin cells. Non-setting facial masks include warm oil and paraffin wax masks. These different forms are made to suit different skin types (e.g., oily or dry), and different skincare goals or needs (e.g., moisturizing, cleansing, exfoliating). Clay and mud masks suit oily and some "combination" skin types,[4] while cream-based masks tend to suit dry and sensitive skin types. There are also peel-off masks which are great for when you need to remove thin layers of dead skin cells and dirt.[5]

Back "facial"

A back facial applies the same techniques as would normally be applied to the face in order to alleviate rough skin and "backne", or acne which appears on the back. According to the Universal Spa Training Academy, back treatments help to unclog pores by exfoliating, toning, and nourishing the skin. Back facials are also a great way to ease tension on the back muscles and heal dry skin.[6] The first step of a back facial is cleansing and exfoliating; a mask is then applied followed by moisturizer and a massage.
