What method is used to apply a facial mask?

The most effective method for applying a facial mask is with a brush. Using a brush allows for a smooth and even application of the product, ensuring that it covers the skin uniformly without causing any irritation. This technique allows the esthetician to reach smaller areas around the nose and eyes with precision, which can be challenging when using fingers or sponges. Additionally, brushes may reduce the risk of introducing bacteria from the hands into the product, maintaining the mask's integrity and hygiene.

While using fingers can also be an option, it may not provide the same level of coverage and can sometimes lead to uneven application. Sponges, on the other hand, can absorb some of the product, which can lead to wastage. Pouring a mask directly onto the face generally leads to messiness and difficulty in even distribution, making it less practical compared to the controlled method of using a brush.
