I painted recently skimmed plaster, after doing mist coat. Masking take pulls all coats

off to bare plaster.? The walls had a skimcoat, and after 2 days were dry (white-pink). The plasterer said to mist coat (with 50 % water, 50 % white matt paint) before painting. I did this, and let it dry.

Then I applied a first coat of the kitchen paint, waited 5 hours as stated, and then set about applying the second. Whilst doing this, I masked off a portion, and it took off all coats of paint, and brought me down to bare plaster.

I am very worried - will this mean my paint will peel off? What have I done wrong?
