What happens to the skin when a thermal mask cools?

It dries out
It tightens and tones
It reddens and swells
It becomes oily

The correct answer is: It tightens and tones

When a thermal mask cools, it generally leads to a tightening and toning effect on the skin. This occurs because the cooling process can have astringent properties, causing the pores to constrict and the skin to feel firmer. The cooling sensation also helps to reduce any potential inflammation, and as the mask cools, it can promote improved circulation and stimulate collagen production. This contributes to an overall revitalized appearance, making the skin feel more toned and lifted compared to the non-cooled state. The other options do not accurately describe the phenomena associated with the cooling of a thermal mask. For example, drying out is more associated with a lack of moisture than with the cooling effect of a thermal mask. Redness and swelling are typically signs of irritation, not a result of a cooling mask, while becoming oily is more related to skin type and conditions rather than the cooling process itself.
