Face masks have long been an important step in many skin care aficionados’ beauty routines (and for good reason). You can find all kinds of face masks pretty much anywhere these days — and at all price points — but what’s a girl to do when she has so many options to choose from?
First things first, focus on ingredients that target your specific skin concerns, whether you’re oily or feel extra dry. We did the research for you by listing the types of face masks that are best suited for the most common skin concerns. #yourewelcome
If you need to deep clean your pores…use a bentonite clay mask.
Bentonite clay masks make for an incredible detox, which helps maintain gorgeous skin. When mixed with water, the natural healing clay has a strong negative charge that binds to the positive ions in harmful compounds like toxins and metals, eliminating the impurities from the skin. One of our favorite bentonite clay masks is the Whish Renewing Mud Mask.You only need a thin layer of this product to get smooth, gorgeous skin. Even better, it’s available in the FabFitFun Fall Box, so sign up today.
If you need to hydrate dry skin…use an algae mask.
Does your face still feel dry and flaky despite applying a lot of moisturizer? We know the struggle. This is where algae masks come in, which hydrate and nourish the skin all at once. Algae has gained traction in the skin care industry as a super hydrating ingredient that strengthens the skin’s epidermis and helps skin retain moisture. Since algae naturally retains so much water, it acts as a humectant that also infuses the skin with rich nutrients like vitamin C and E.
If you need to reduce oil and shine…use a red kaolin clay mask.
If the last thing you want for your oily skin is to feel sticky after skin care, masks infused with red kaolin clay is your new best friend. Unlike other kaolin clays, red kaolin clay is ideal for oily skin as it eliminates excess sebum on the face and tightens pores – improving the texture of your skin in the process. Your skin will immediately look clear and matte!
If you need to restore radiance to dull skin…use an oatmeal mask.
Who said oatmeal is just for breakfast? Oatmeal is a natural exfoliator that’s ideal for scrubbing away dead skin cells and smoothing out your complexion in a gentle way. It also contains amino acids that the skin readily absorbs, helping to stimulate new skin growth and heal blemishes and imperfections. When combined with honey, oatmeal’s humectant properties will help the skin retain all the rich antioxidants and moisture. You’ll have glowing, radiant skin in no time.
If you need to soothe irritated, agitated skin…use an aloe mask.
Whether it’s sunburn or just an unfortunate reaction to a new foundation you were testing, irritated skin can feel as bad as it looks. That’s why calming aloe masks are perfect for providing immediate relief. Full of rich antioxidants and healing enzymes, aloe also contains the two hormones called auxin and gibberellins that soothe agitated skin thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties.
