Listening to friends telling me to apply a perilla mask to treat melasma, Hoa also grinds the whole box and uses it gradually. After applying the mask on the 4th day, she had to go to the hospital because the entire area of melasma on both cheeks was red.
Dermatologists deny the effect of fresh milk perilla mask to treat melasma, millions of women are passing on each other The skin is red and swollen because of the stale mask On hot summer days, many hospitals and cosmetic facilities limit receiving patients, many women share the secret to treating melasma at home.
