The face mask awards

I love a face mask. They're an effective way to tackle skin issues and also pamper yourself at the same time. These all take top spot in my eyes for the different concerns they aim to treat.


Best hydrating mask: Jurlique Rose Moisture Plus Cream Mask*

This mask is great for dry or dehydrated skin, giving an intensive moisture boost. You can leave it on for 10 minutes and then wash off, or as I prefer to do, leave on overnight for a deeper effect. You'll wake up with baby soft, plump skin. £32.50 100ml

Best exfoliation: REN Glycolactic mask

There's a reason this mask has a cult following. It gets rid of dead skin cells effectively using natural fruit acids, leaving you with a fresh-faced complexion and with no need for face scrubs. It's sticky, smells like oranges and can be used 1-2 times per week. Expect a slight tingle when using it. I have reasonably sensitive skin and I'm fine with this, but do a patch test first. £30 50ml

Best clarifying mask: Amie Spring Clean Clay Mask*

Who doesn't love a good clay mask (I love them, especially for making funny faces in the mirror when they start to dry out)! Amie's offering is great for oilier skin, or just for skin in need of a bit of decongesting. I like to use it once a week for a deep clean, and often follow up with the Jurlique Rose Moisturing Cream Mask. It's budget friendly at just £4.99 a tube, but can also be bought in sachets if you fancy trying first.

Best for variety: Apivita 

With over 10 types of masks for all skin concerns Apivita have something for everyone they also come in handy sachet sizes as well as full size tubes so you can try out the range without spending a fortune. My favourites are the Aloe Mask*, which hydrates and soothes and the Honey Mask for nourishment. £3 for 2 x 8ml sachets

What would you give a face mask award to?

  2. Ohhhh...Thanks for this.

    I tend to stick to budget friendly clay masks but this has spiked my interest to try some others to see if I get some more benefit.

    The REN Glycolactic mask sounds intriguing. I must try.

  3. I love masks so much. I am currently loving the Origins Charcoal one! I had a sample of the Ren one a while back and I really loved that one, too. I need to look into the aloe one!
