Cucumber is one of many foods that are great to consume to be healthy and also good for your skin. I've had cucumbers before, but I didn't like the taste so I never thought of buying it at all. One day my mom bought some cucumbers and used it as a mask. She told me that I could use some too so she sliced a few pieces for me. The cucumbers were pretty cold since my mom just took it out of the fridge. I laid them on my face for about 15 mins. Cucumbers are very soothing and makes me feel really relaxed. Sometimes I get lazy and don't use it often, which is not so good since the cucumber will go bad and I end up throwing it away. That is probably the only bad side to using fresh cucumbers.
During my stay at Korea, my friend suggested Skin Food's cucumber soothing mask for me. I took her suggestion and bought the mask. The mask is gel like and seems to have pieces of cucumbers in it. You can leave this mask on for 10-15 mins and then rinse it off. I do think that this mask makes my skin feel good. Therefore, I use it every week and it is a part of my routine. The days that I use a mask is to give myself some time to relax and forget about stress. Also, this time allows me to temporarily stop thinking about things that are bothering me. Masks are my friend.
