What is multi-masking? Our tips for using multi-masking in your skincare routine.

New day, new skincare tips, you'll want to know more! This is a particular favorite product here at Procoal HQ, and here's why.



Multi-masking is a skincare tip that involves using several different masks at the same time. Are you confused? Don't worry, that's about to change soon. Let us explain what it all means with these quick and easy tips. In the end, you'll regret not trying it sooner!


Skin Prep

Just like using a mask in the traditional sense, it's best to start with a clean, purified face. Exfoliation also removes any remaining dead skin layers that may prevent the mask from working optimally. Procoal's Exfoliating Face Scrub is ideal for this. The charcoal beads burst across the face for detoxifying benefits, while the lightweight pumice stone gently yet thoroughly cleanses the skin and opens up the pores.


Think about your skin

The main benefit of multi-masking is that you can customize the mask to the area you want to treat. With that in mind, take some time to examine your skin and figure out which product will work best for that area. For example, drier cheeks will require hydration and moisturizer or a cloth-based mask. For blemish-prone skin, there are some clay-based or anti-blemish products that are great for clearing clogged pores.


Don’t forget to shower

If you shower before applying your mask, you’ll find that the warm steam opens up your pores, perfect for all the good ingredients in your mask to quickly absorb into your skin!


Mix it up

You don’t have to always use the same mask formula. Multi-masking is the perfect way to mix and match your masks to keep your skin looking its best. Another benefit of mixing is that you can treat rashes without worrying about further breakouts. Procoal’s Instaclear Control Mask cleanses and helps relieve redness or swelling caused by active blemishes! Why not try cutting them into small pieces and applying them to smaller areas of active acne?


Don’t be afraid to apply multiple layers!

Masks don’t have to be applied at the same time! You can always start with a detoxifying clay mask (like Procoal’s Charcoal Mask) and follow with a hydrating mask or sleeping mask.


Timing is everything

One thing you shouldn’t forget is proper timing when applying your chosen mask. For example, it’s best to apply the mask that needs more time to set or dry first, and then the other masks that are faster! Then you can remove them all in one go!


Start chopping!

Don’t think that multi-masking only means clay or cream masks. Sheet masks are also perfect for this trend! Cheeks and upper forehead are drier and are suitable for sheet masks. Simply cut the mask into shapes and store the rest in the fridge. Masks can be kept for up to 5 days in the fridge. A great product to try is Procoal’s Marine Moisture Mask, which provides a lot of moisture and feels wonderful on the skin when cool.


Don’t forget the aftercare

It would be a shame to waste all this time and effort by not putting on makeup directly after the mask. After washing off the residue, it’s best to follow up with a trusted serum and moisturizer. Your skin will feel like Christmas has come early, full of love and attention!


Don’t overdo it

You can always have too much of a good thing, and sometimes it’s best to leave your skin alone and let it balance itself out. Don’t use a mask more than three times a week, and stick to your usual skin care routine the rest of the time.


That’ll be expensive

There’s no denying that this trend can be a costly experience. Using multiple masks costs quite a bit of money. To avoid this, use products you’ve used before and are familiar with. If you try something new that you’ve never tried before, your skin may not tolerate it well enough that the mask ends up in a drawer, never to see the light of day again. What a waste!


So these are some of our tips, tricks and advice for tackling the multi-masking trend! It takes a lot of dedication, but here at Procoal we’re a big fan of this extra “me time”. Even if you only use a multi-mask once a week, or even once a month, you won’t regret it and your skin will thank you!
