The invention discloses a self-antibacterial mask material as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, homogeneously mixing mugwort leaf essential oil, patchouli essential oil, foeniculum vulgare essential oil and one or more emulsifiers to obtain an emulsion I; secondly, dissolving a tremella fuciformis sporocarp extract and pectin in water, cooling to 45-50 DEG C, and adding the emulsion I for uniform stirring, thereby obtaining an emulsion II; thirdly, dissolving polyamino acid in water, heating to 65-75 DEG C, dropwise adding the emulsion II in a stirring state, and continuing stirring under a heat preservation condition after the dropwise addition is finished; finally, cooling to 40-45 DEG C, and adding one or more polyatomic alcohols, one or more stabilizers and a bispyrithione dispersion liquid, carrying out uniform stirring to obtain a microcapsule emulsion, coating the surface of mask paper with the microcapsule emulsion, and carrying out drying to obtain the self-antibacterial mask material. The microcapsule emulsion has the advantages of being broad-spectrum in antibacterial capability, high in stability, and non-toxic and harmless to skin; therefore, the self-antibacterial mask material containing the microcapsule emulsion is strong in antibacterial capability, and no preservative is needed.
