Soy Milk Firming Face Mask
Egg white protein tightens as it dries on skin, creating a genuine, if temporary, firming and pore-tightening sensation, this is a mechanical effect from the protein film, distinct from soy milk's own isoflavone content, which works more gradually with repeated use.

Kitchen note
Lie flat during the wear time rather than sitting upright, gravity affects how a tightening mask sets, and lying flat gives a more even, comfortable tightening sensation across the whole face.
