The ideal condition for the sheet to effectively provide the mask pack is to keep the skin moisturizing environment blocked from the external environment and there should be no irritation to the skin.

Most of the sheet materials used up to now are chemically manufactured nonwoven fabrics or hydrogels.

On the other hand, kelp, seaweed and seaweed have excellent nutritional components and unique flavor. In particular, seaweed, seaweed, and kelp are representative seaweed foods that are distributed in a processed state, but they do not show their product value properly while containing excellent nutrients. In addition, seaweed, seaweed, and kelp are governed by the market principle according to the law of supply and demand, and consumption is limited when a bountiful harvest is achieved. As the price is declining, new products (shampoo, pack, cosmetics, etc.) were developed and researched.

In particular, kelp contains various physiologically active substances such as alginic acid, fucoidan, polyphenol, and chlorophyll. is also widely used.

Kelp is divided into a thallus, a stem, and an attachment period, and the frond has a band-like shape. The length of the leaf is 1.8-3.5 m, the width is 25-30 cm, and the thickness is 1.8-3.5 mm. The internal structure of the kelp frond is divided into the surface layer, the cortex, and the inner layer. The outermost layer, the surface layer, is composed of densely arranged small cells containing a large amount of chloroplasts, the cortex is composed of a viscous layer composed of round, rectangular, and polygonal cells without chloroplasts, and the inner layer is composed of filamentous cells.

Although various technologies have been developed to manufacture such a mask pack using kelp, the mask pack using kelp is made by shredding kelp or extracting active ingredients from kelp and applying it to a sheet. There is a downside to

Among the methods of using kelp directly as a mask pack, there is a method of cutting dasama into a predetermined shape and applying it to the face.

Kelp, seaweed, and seaweed have excellent nutritional components and unique flavor. In particular, seaweed, seaweed, and kelp are representative seaweed foods that are distributed in a processed state, but they do not show their product value properly even though they contain excellent nutrients. In addition, in the case of laver, seaweed, and kelp, there is a disadvantage in that consumption is limited when a bountiful harvest is achieved by being governed by the market principle according to the law of supply and demand.

Kelp is divided into a thallus, a stem, and an attachment period, and the frond has a band-like shape. The length of the frond is 1.8 ~ 3.5m, the width is 25 ~ 30cm, and the thickness is 1.8 ~ 3.5mm. The internal structure of the kelp frond is divided into the surface layer, the cortex, and the inner layer. The outermost layer, the surface layer, is composed of densely arranged small cells containing a large amount of chloroplasts, the cortex is composed of a viscous layer composed of round, rectangular, and polygonal cells without chloroplasts, and the inner layer is composed of filamentous cells.

When such kelp is directly used as a mask pack, it cannot adhere to the skin due to the rigidity of the surface and dermal layers, and there is a disadvantage that the active ingredient of the inner layer does not contact the skin. Used for slicing.

However, since the skin of kelp is made of a slippery viscous layer, it is very difficult to slice it manually.
