What Do Face Masks Do?

Face masks are targeted skincare treatments designed to deliver concentrated ingredients to the skin. Unlike daily cleansers or moisturisers, masks work over a short period of time to address specific concerns such as dehydration, congestion, sensitivity, or dullness.

Used regularly, face masks can help reset the skin, improve overall appearance, and support a healthier-looking complexion.

Are Face Masks Actually Good for Your Skin?

Yes – when chosen correctly, face masks can be very beneficial.

Face masks help by:

• Delivering high levels of active ingredients
• Supporting hydration and moisture retention
• Drawing out impurities and excess oil
• Calming irritation and redness
• Improving skin texture and radiance

The key is selecting a mask that suits your skin type and using it as directed. Overusing strong masks or choosing the wrong formula can cause dryness or irritation, so balance is important.

Which Is the Best Skincare Mask?

There is no single “best” face mask – the right choice depends on your skin’s needs. Think of masks as problem-solvers rather than one-size-fits-all products.

Here’s a simple guide to choosing the right type:

• Purifying masks – ideal for oily, congested, or blemish-prone skin
• Balancing masks – help regulate oil while maintaining hydration
• Soothing masks – calm sensitive, reactive, or irritated skin
• Antioxidant masks – protect against environmental stress and boost radiance
• Restorative masks – support skin renewal and improve overall texture

Many people benefit from using different masks at different times, depending on how their skin feels.

Where Does a Face Mask Go in a Skincare Routine?

Face masks are typically used after cleansing and before toning and moisturising.

A simple routine looks like this:

1. Cleanse the skin thoroughly
2. Apply the face mask evenly
3. Leave on for the recommended time
4. Rinse or remove as directed
5. Follow with toner, serum, and moisturiser

Masks are usually used one to three times per week, depending on the formula and your skin type. Find more tips here on skincare routines.
