How to use the Reformer masks
Application steps, timing, order, and how the Reformer Face Mask and Reformer Eye Mask combine with the Face Pilates™ method at home.
1. Can I use the face mask and eye mask together?
Yes — first position the Reformer Eye Mask patches in your periorbital areas, then apply the Reformer Face Mask to cover your whole face. The two are designed to coexist on the skin during the same 20-minute session.
2. What order should I use the face mask and eye mask?
Apply the face mask first because it covers a larger surface. Then place the eye mask patches over the under-eye area on top of, or instead of, the face mask’s eye cut-outs. After 20 minutes, remove both and pat any residual serum into the skin.
3. How long should I leave the Reformer Face Mask on?
Twenty minutes. The biocellulose substrate retains saturation for the full window. Up to 30 minutes is acceptable; beyond that the marginal benefit is minimal.
4. How long should I leave the Reformer Eye Mask on?
Twenty minutes. The hydrogel patches retain cool temperature and serum saturation for that period. Refrigerating the sachet for 15 minutes before use extends the cooling sensation slightly.
5. Do I rinse after using the Reformer masks?
No. Pat the remaining serum into the skin and follow with eye cream and moisturiser. Washing it off removes the actives the mask just delivered.
6. Can I use the Reformer masks in the morning?
Yes. Morning is in many ways the ideal time, particularly for the eye mask, because it depuffs overnight fluid retention and primes the skin for makeup. The Reformer Face Mask and Reformer Eye Mask are designed for either morning or evening use.
7. Can I sleep with the Reformer eye mask on?
No. Hydrogel masks are designed for a 20-minute application. Sleeping with one on does not deliver more benefit and can cause unwanted irritation as the gel dries against the eye area.
8. What is the right routine with Face Pilates and the masks?
At AMAN Spa Toronto, the 8-step Face Pilates™ method ends with the application of the Reformer Face Mask (for the face) and the Reformer Eye Mask (for the under-eye), used together. At home, follow your own Face Pilates™ technique with the same finishing step: Reformer Face Mask and Reformer Eye Mask applied together for 20 minutes after your massage.
