You can scrub, polish, cleanse and moisturise to your heart’s content, but at this bleak and skin-saddening time of year sometimes nothing will quite cut it like a face mask. Choose your mask right and you arm yourself with an arsenal of beauty enhancing properties – from seemingly magical spot solvers to deep moisturising wonders. Here’s my top five.
Murad Clarifying Mask
The sulphur in this generates dreamy results for the blemish ridden, all the while leaving skin feeling supremely clean.
£34.20 at LookFantastic.com
Glamglow Youth Mud
The ‘Hollywood’ one. Purportedly the secret weapon of many an a-lister, this miracle product gives a warm and tingly sensation finishing by leaving skin extra soft and smooth.
£39.99 from LookFantastic.com
Indian Healing Clay
Suited to DIY types in search of a deep pore cleanse. This ‘healing clay’ can be mixed with either water or apple cider vinegar to treat acne and clean deep. It only needs to be left on for ten minutes and when washed off skin tone is noticeably more even and bumps diminished.
£12.99 from Amazon
Freeman Facial Clay Mask
Boasting avocado and oatmeal as skin-softening ingredients, this mask suits the sensitive of skin. Especially suited to delicate oily skin types.
From £7.60 from Amazon
Bioderma Hydrabio Moisturising Mask
The ultimate moisturising mask, this is light and non-greasy but holds in moisture to keep you hydrated. Perfect for the skin-stripping cold of January!
£15.48 from Amazon
