So how do you choose the perfect one? As with all our products, our face masks are made with effects in mind—not cookie-cutter skin types. So, picking your face mask is as simple as considering how you’d like your skin to feel, then seeking out the products and ingredients that will get you there. Although there is no independent evidence that mud masks, clay masks, cream masks, or sheet masks provide any long lasting benefit to the skin, they can be hydrating, soothing and provide some keratolytic/exfoliant effect — if only in the act of removing them. Face masks are the perfect skin care treatment to help you with your skin care concerns. The right face mask can help hydrate skin, remove excess oils and help improve the appearance of your pores. They're also an excellent way to help pull out impurities. Facial masks should be used in the midst of the skin care routine. That means you should already be done with the cleansing and exfoliation. You should let the mask stay on your face for approximately 10 to 15 minutes. You will usually know it is done when it feels dry – but it depends on the type of mask you will use. Many people are confused on how often to usea face mask, but in general you should mask1-3 times per week. However, certain maskscan be used every day, like Ultra-Rich CremeTherapy. You can use your face maskmorning or night – it completely depends on your schedule and your personal preferences. Most leave-on masks are hydrating formulas, so you might be able to skip applying your regular nighttime moisturizer—but you'll want to apply the mask and your face moisturizer if you have very dry skin. Sheet masks should be applied before the rest of your skincare routine. For oily or acne-prone skin: bentonite clay & green tea mask Make the mask: Steep 1 cup of green tea at least 5 minutes. Scoop 2 tablespoons of tea into a bowl (be careful if the tea is still hot). Dissolve 1/2 teaspoon of Epsom salts in the tea in the bowl. Mix in about 2 tablespoons of bentonite clay and stir until you have a smooth paste. Spread the paste evenly over your skin. You can enjoy the remaining cup of tea as you relax with your mask. Wait 10 to 15 minutes before removing it with warm water. For sensitive skin: cucumber-honey-tea mask Make the mask: Cut a baby cucumber into very thin slices and set aside. In a small pot, steep 1 cup of black tea for at least 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of honey and stir until dissolved. Add the cucumber slices. If desired, add one or two drops of essential oil. Let the cucumber soak for at least 10 minutes. Scoop the cucumber from the pot and place slices evenly over your face. Leave the slices on for 10 to 20 minutes before removing. Rinse your face with warm water. Honey face mask for acne-prone skin Dermatologists love baking soda because it’s both anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. Combine it with exfoliating lemon juice and soothing honey and you have a gentle but effective mask to help prevent acne. 1 teaspoon lemon 1 tablespoon honey 1 teaspoon baking soda Add lemon juice, honey and baking soda to a small bowl. Mix well and apply over the face and neck. Avoid the area near your eyes (lemon juice and honey will both sting). Don’t turn this into a scrub by rubbing it into your skin. After 15 minutes, remove the mask with warm water, then with cold water. A caution when using lemon juice: Lemon can also make the skin photosensitive. Rinse your face thoroughly and use sunscreen if you’ll be out in the sun soon afterward. For oily or acne-prone skin: blueberry-yogurt-honey mask Make the mask: Mash 1/3 cup of blueberries with 2 tablespoons of yogurt, 1 tablespoon of rice floor, and 1 teaspoon of hone
