Do you use any face masks?


Do you use any face masks? If so, share which ones you use!

I use Renee Rouleau’s Triple Berry Smoothing Peel once or twice a month (as I remember!) – absolutely love it for really soft, smooth skin.

Thanks to Alexandra for today’s question! Have a question idea? Submit yours here.

I use a face mask every weekend. I’ve jumped around with brands a lot, but I’ve recently gotten the conditioning clay mask from the Boots botanics line, and I really love it. Freeman has some good ones, too.

I’m a little in love with using masks. I used to make my mom and I our own, avocado/lemon juice for her and oatmeal/milk/honey for me. There is just something wonderfully indulgent and feminine about using a mask to me. And I’ve certainly explored the spectrum (Lush, Neutrogena, Bliss, etc) and am constantly on the lookout for something new and exciting! I still love the cheapy Montagne Jeunesse peel-offs but my favorite mask of the moment is Korres Yoghurt Mask. It’s hydrating and tightening, very refreshing and you can def feel it working.

I love masks!! TBH I’m still in a trial and error phase but there is something about them that I just love! One day I’ll have a mask schedule 🙂

I do. I use one by Dr. Brandt from his Pores No More series and one that’s homemade from herbs, orange peel, coffee grounds and yogurt. Both make my face feel smooth, but the yogurt one is less expensive and, I think, actually works better.

I use a variety of masks but inconsistently :(. I have a Lumene peat mask, a coconut scrubby mask from Organix that is supposed to be one of those ones that heats up, but it doesn’t, and I have a marine clay mask from Freeman’s that I hate because it has WAY too much blue dye in it. I wish they would stop putting dye/fragrance in face masks. In the end I just prefer homemade honey, yogurt, tomato, or rhassoul clay masks.

I use the Philosophy Microdelivery 1 minute peel twice a week (but I leave it on for about 5 minutes). It’s great for banishing any flakies and really brightens up my skin!

Yup! I use my homemade yogurt honey turmeric mask, but have also been trying Kenzoki Belle de Jour White Lotus mask. I like how my skin looks a lot more radiant afterwards!

Renee Rouleau Triple Berry Smoothing Peel, Renee Rouleau Vitamin C Mask, Origins 10 Minute Drink Up mask, Dermalogica Sebum clearing mask.

I try to do a mask once a week, and I choose from the above based on what I think my skin needs. I use the Triple Berry Smoothing Peel and 10 minute drink up mask the most!

I use a homemade mask with 500 mg of niacinamide and a few drops of water daily. Cheap and very effective. I also like LUSH’s Cupcake once in a while.

I use the Blue Corn Mask from the Body Shop about 2 times a week. It doesn’t smell the greatest but it really helps keep my skin from breaking out and makes it feel really smooth and hydrated 🙂

Currently I use two every week to two weeks. One is for deep cleaning and that’s the blue corn mask from the body shop and the other is freeman’s brightening one. I love the freeman one, but I like the body shop’s seaweed mask better than the blue corn one so I think I’ll end up going back to that.

I try to use mask every other day. Most of them are asian sheet or crystal masks (Silk Whitia, My Beauty Diary, BSC…) I also use a variety of clay masks (Alaska Glacial Mud, for example) and enzymatic ones (REN Glycolactic and Ole Henriksen Blue/Black Berry).

I like my Mario Badescu Flower and Tonic mask. My skin is pretty good overall, but every now and then it gets a little congested and misbehaved. This mask tends to pull it all together. It doesn’t get much love on some of the boards but you really have to try it for yourself.

oooh i really want to try the renee rouleau berry mask, it sounds amazing. currently i use fresh’s umbrian clay bar every day – it’s fuller’s earth, a nice light clay mask for every day. once a week i use juice beauty’s green apple peel and an aspirin mask, both for chemical exfoliation. my complexion has improved so much since using masks!
