Before we get into the review of our best healthy face masks, let’s start with the 3 most important considerations when you are on the hunt for a natural and organic way to purify and condition your skin using a face mask.

Quick summary

Before you buy: 3 Things to consider when purchasing a natural face mask

Face masks a great way to rejuvenate skin, treat blemishes or dry skin, firm and tighten skin, and just generally leave you with a face that feels radiant, allowing you to feel more confident and comfortable with yourself.

The question then is how you choose the right one. Here we will give you some factors to consider before purchasing your next face mask.

1. Consider your skin type & what condition(s) you are looking to tackle

Whenever you are shopping for a skincare product, you need to know your skin type:

• Normal (no underlying conditions)
• Dry
• Oily
• Combination (a combination of oil and dry or oily and normal)
• Sensitive

Maybe you are struggling with persistent dry skin and are looking to hydrate and rejuvenate, or perhaps you have oily skin that you want to purify and cleanse.

Because the gentlest way to exfoliate your face is using compounds that dissolve bonds between dead cells, face masks are also a great way to exfoliate away dull, ashy patches on your skin or in your pores. AHAs and BHAs are two compounds that are very effective at dissolving away those bonds between cells that become trapped on the surface and in your pores.

While these compounds are present in several cleansers, we don’t leave them on our skin. It usually takes 5 to 10 minutes for them to dissolve those bonds. Thus, the best and gentlest way to exfoliate the skin is with a mask. Keep in mind that even for those who suffer from oily skin and acne shouldn’t exfoliate more than a couple of times per week as, just like cleansing, it can be tough on the living skin and lead to irritation if done too often.

Speaking of irritation, face masks are a great way to calm irritation. They can be packed with soothing compounds. Because they are left on your face for several minutes, their ingredients have ample time to penetrate your skin and soothe inflammation and irritation in the deeper layers of your skin.

Finally, antiaging masks are another common category that you can find when searching the racks of face masks that are available.

It is essential to know that if you use the wrong type of mask for your skin or condition, you could end up making the symptoms worse rather than relieving them. As an example, using an exfoliating mask on sensitive, irritated skin is likely to cause even more irritation and inflammation.

What this means for you:

If you don’t know your goal, you will end up lost in a sea of masks and may end up purchasing something that makes your symptoms worse rather than better. If you take some time to consider what you are trying to achieve, then you will have a sense of purpose when browsing the stores, either online or brick-and-mortar. This will allow you to focus your search and evaluate face masks based on the conditions they target and the skin types too which they are suited.

We will discuss some of the most common ingredients and the skin types and conditions they target in our Types of Masks You Can Use on Your Face section of this article.

2. Know how to treat your skin

In general, the answer is to treat your skin gently. Though, how you do that is the tough part. You will be leaving masks on your face for at least a few minutes; thus, you need to make sure that you are not sensitive to the ingredients that they contain. Because everyone is different, this is a bit of a trial-and-error process.

We recommend that you keep a journal of the products and ingredients that you have tried and how your skin reacts. Even if you aren’t keeping a journal, which really is a great way to track products and ingredients, you want to keep a mental note of how your skin reacts to certain compounds.

3. Read labels: Check the targeted conditions, the ingredients list, and the expiration date

Reading labels is always essential when choosing skincare products. However, it is doubly so for face masks. Not only are you going to be checking what skin types and conditions the masks are formulated for and what ingredients they contain, but you are also going to want to check expiration dates.

A lot of skincare products have best before dates or manufactured on dates, but because masks are intended to be used promptly after purchase and can contain fresh ingredients like fruit juice extracts and pulps, some of them have shelf lives that span weeks or months instead of a year or more. Thus, you want to make sure that you are buying a fresh mask and that you are going to use it before it expires.

With these considerations in mind, you will be more empowered to choose the best natural facial mask for your skin!

Now that you’ve got some consideration to keep in mind, we can get into the reviews of the 9 best organic face masks that you can use on your face.

The 9 best natural and organic face masks

Unique features:

• Deep pore cleanse
• Adds moisture without clogging pores
• Controls skin oil
• Encourages skin regeneration

The best mask for:

This mask is suitable for any skin type, but those with oily sets and acne-prone skin will see a lot of benefits from the oil-control, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory effects.

Notable ingredients:

Bay, jojoba, clary sage

Overview:

White clay, also known as kaolin clay, is a common ingredient for removing excess oil and impurities on the surface and deep within pores. It helps to reduce the occurrence of breakouts and keep the skin clean and clear.

Jojoba oil is very similar to sebum, our skin’s natural oil. This similarity to sebum means that it can hydrate dry skin and provide a protective barrier to keep your skin healthy throughout the day. It also helps to control the amount of natural oil your skin produces. Jojoba oil is non-comedogenic, which means it does not clog your pores.[1]

Jojoba oil can also help regulate skin hormones and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and can speed up skin healing, helping to repair any damage your skin may have endured.

All of these factors make jojoba oil one of the best ingredients you can use to control oil and hydrate your face.

Clary sage is a natural and safe plant that contains several beneficial compounds that help to reduce inflammation, destroy free radicals, kill bacteria, and reduce the formation and growth of tumors. Clary sage is a powerful ingredient that helps protect and heal your skin from sun damage and prevent bacterial acne breakouts.[2]

Last but certainly not least, the essential fatty acids provided by this mask give your skin the building blocks it needs to repair collagen, reducing fine line and wrinkles.[3]

---

Unique features:

• Reduces the signs of aging
• Provides an added hit of moisture

The best mask for:

This mask is best suited to treating the signs of aging and reducing the daily stressors our skin encounters. It’s excellent for dry and damaged skin, especially for those who spend a lot of time outdoors.

Notable ingredients:

Honey, jojoba, wild berries, orange

Overview:

Hey Honey, use honey as one of their base ingredients for most products. Honey is a powerhouse when it comes to healing and tightening your skin. It has been used for thousands of years as a way to heal the skin and fight aging. There are several compounds in honey that help to fight signs of aging and repair damage. Phenolic compounds are the key ingredients in honey that provide antioxidants. Honey will also help to limit the growth of bacteria and fungus on the surface of your skin, which can prevent skin infections and reduce breakouts.[4]

Loaded with vitamin E, this formula also provides plenty of skin rejuvenation by helping to promote the health of fibroblasts, the cells deep within your skin that produce collagen, which keeps your skin looking younger and firmer. Vitamin E also improves the barrier function of your skin, helping it to recover from environmental stress and protect it from further damage.[5]

Jojoba oil helps to moisturize the skin and control the production of natural oil.

Citrus fruits (lemon and orange) and wild berry extracts provide essential vitamins, nutrients, and antioxidants that help skin recover from damage and promote cell turnover to revitalize skin. These essential oils can also kill harmful bacteria to help prevent breakouts.[6][7]

The good:

Things to consider:

Bottom line:

An excellent skin pick-me-up that alleviates skin stress and prevents future damage by healing the skin’s natural barrier. This mask is fantastic for those who spend a lot of time working or playing outdoors.

---

Unique features:

• Gently removes impurities from the surface and in pores
• Exfoliates skin using fruit enzymes
• Organic essential oils fight bacteria

The best mask for:

This is a purifying mask for those who have sensitive skin but are fighting whiteheads and blackheads.

Notable ingredients:

Grape seed polyphenols, pink clay, caffeine

Overview:

Pink clay comes in many forms and can either be a combination of white clay and red clay, or a naturally occurring kaolin clay with a higher concentration of iron oxide. In this case, Caudalie is using pink clay (also called rose clay) sourced from France. Rose clay provides the same impurity removing effects as white clay. However, rose clay does not remove the skin’s natural oil, which makes this one especially effective for those who have dry and sensitive skin.

One of the main ingredients in this pink colored French clay is montmorillonite, which is effective at absorbing natural oils and the impurities they trap on the skin’s surface and in its pores. However, this compound does not completely strip the skin of its natural oil entirely, making it an effective treatment for those who already have dry or sensitive skin.[8]

Illite is another mineral found in this clay which can help to soothe inflammation and irritation.[9]

The papaya enzyme papain is also added into this formula, which helps to break down the bonds that glue dead skin cells together and trap them on the skin and in pores. It also helps to clear out the waste produced by cells that can buildup in your skin. This buildup inhibits the function of fibroblasts, which create collagen and elastin. Clearing out this waste leads to the formation of healthy collagen and elastin, giving a tighter, firmer look to skin.[10]

Finally, tannins which occur naturally when plant materials are broken down, are a gentle astringent that can help to shrink and close pores.[11]

Lavender is used for its antibacterial effects, which can help reduce the occurrence of blemishes on the skin. As a bonus, lavender has also been shown to improve the healing factors of the skin.[12]

The good:

Things to consider:

Bottom line:

This pink clay mask provides light absorption action to purify skin without drying it out. The type of clay used is very gentle and may not have enough absorption power for very oily skin. If your skin is reactive to essential oils or fruit enzymes, skip this one.

---

Unique features:

• Absorbs environmental contaminants from the skin’s surface and pores
• Provides hydration
• Anti-inflammatory

The best mask for:

This is an excellent mask for those with combination skin looking to remove impurities.

Notable ingredients:

Activated bamboo charcoal, binchotan white charcoal powder, kaolin clay, jojoba, willowherb

Overview:

Two types of charcoal are used in this product. The first is activated charcoal made from bamboo and injected with steam to increase the number of pores which are responsible for absorbing the pollutants that are deposited on the skin. The second type of charcoal is binchotan white charcoal made from ubame oak; it is a less well known than activated charcoal. Still, it is another highly porous substance that can absorb impurities and balances the skin’s moisture content. All of these effects combine to purify skin and reduce the visibility of pores while helping to control the moisture levels of skin.[13][14][15]

Jojoba oil is also included, providing all the oil-control, moisturizing, and healing benefits we have discussed so often.

Because the ingredients are all targeted to control oil levels, they help to balance the moisture levels of the skin and will not strip it of its protective oil barrier. But, they also do not add excess oil. That is what makes this mask great for those with combination skin.

Willowherb is also used as an anti-inflammatory that reduces irritation and the appearance of redness on the skin. This plant is packed with anti-inflammatories such as oenothein B (OeB), quercetin-3-O-glucuronide, and myricetin-3-O-rhamnoside. They can reduce inflammation and stop the decomposition of hyaluronic acid.[16]

The good:

Things to consider:

Bottom line:

This is a potent charcoal mask that can remove impurities and help to balance the oil on your face, making it ideal for combination skin types. If you have extremely dehydrated skin, you may want to start with a spot test to determine how your skin will react.

---

Unique features:

• Powerful hydrator
• Plant extracts help to calm inflammation

The best mask for:

This is a great overnight mask for those looking to boost hydration and soothe inflammation while restoring the skin’s natural barrier.

Notable ingredients:

Star Avensis oil, Indian night jasmine, peptide, speedwell extract

Overview:

Plant extracts supply the skin with stearidonic acid, an omega-3 fatty acid that has been shown to exhibit strong anti-inflammatory effects on the skin. This fatty acid is commonly used to treat eczema and acne.[17]

Night Jasmine is another potent flower. It is rich in antioxidants that help to fight free radicals and eliminate hydrogen peroxide. The antioxidant effects mainly come from its high number of phenolic compounds.[18]

Topical (on the skin) application of peptides is a growing trend in skincare, and their use is not without reason. These powerful proteins can have several effects, depending on their source. Here, Peptide4 is sourced from yeast, which can help improve the skins matrix by supporting healthy collagen formation and improve the skin’s barrier helping it to trap moisture in the skin.[19] Elemis also states that this peptide supports the skin’s natural cycle (part of your body’s circadian rhythms) to assist in healing and recovery while you sleep at night.

Also included are Ylang Ylang and Sweet Orange for their aromatherapy benefits, helping you to drift off into a restful and restorative sleep. Ylang Ylang also has antiseptic properties that can kill harmful bacteria and soften and smooth skin.[20][21]

Notable ingredients:

Aloe vera, lemon, malic acid, apple juice

This exfoliating mask is packed with AHAs and the BHA salicylic acid naturally sourced from fruits and willow bark, respectively. The AHA malic acid is tremendous at not only exfoliating skin but can help to restore the pH balance and moisturize as well. Glycolic acid and lactic acid are two other AHAs that help to exfoliate skin and kill bacteria in your pores.[22]

Rich in the antioxidant vitamin C, this mask can help to nourish your skin and promote cell turnover, allowing for the formation of new healthy skin cells and reducing the signs of aging by smoothing out wrinkles. It also gives a more uniform appearance to skin tone.[23] Grapeseed extract also provides further antioxidant effects, boosting the antiaging effects of this mask.[24][25]

Vitamin E is another essential nutrient included in this product to help fight the signs of aging by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving you firmer skin.[26][27]

The good:

Things to consider:

Bottom line:

The first two ingredients are lemon juice and apple juice. Both of these are rich in AHAs that work wonders for those with oily, acne-prone skin. Others will experience irritation from the potency. Juice Beauty notes that those with dry or sensitive skin should not use this mask.

---

Unique features:

• A mix of clays provides purification and mineral support to the skin
• Antiaging and hyperpigmentation correction

The best mask for:

This is one of the best masks for mature skin and those who have discoloration and dark spots.

Notable ingredients:

Kakadu plums, vitamin C, Brazilian rainforest amethyst clay, glycerin

Overview:

Brazilian purple clay is rich in magnesium, a mineral whose topical application has been effective at reducing inflammation and is essential in several skin functions. Magnesium deficiency is also implicated in the aging process and can result in an inability to fight off the damage from free radicals. Applying it topically has been demonstrated as a possible way to reverse magnesium deficiency in the skin.[28][29]

Bentonite and kaolin clay are present in this product aiding in the removal of excess oil and the impurities that become trapped in them.

A complex of vitamin C sources including Kakadu plums, which contain as many as 55 times the amount of vitamin C as a Florida orange (ounce per ounce) and as much as 100 times the vitamin C content of a standard orange. This potent fruit also contains 5 times as many antioxidants as blueberries gram for gram.[30]

Vitamin C and antioxidants have been shown to reduce the signs of aging, including reducing the appearance of wrinkles and bringing an even, bright complexion to skin tone.[31] Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is also a gentle AHA that can help to exfoliate skin smoothing skin texture and removing dead skin cells.

The good:

Things to consider:

Bottom line:

A potent Vitamin C mask that reduces the signs of aging and pulls impurities from the pores. If you have blemishes lurking under the skin, this mask will draw them out so that they can be purged from the skin. At the beginning of the process, this may appear as though the product is causing a breakout, but it is actually pulling already present clogs closer to the surface so they can be cleared.

Recent studies have indicated that the triterpene esters consisting of the fatty acids oleic acid, stearic acid, and others, make shea butter a powerful moisturizer that has anti-inflammatory properties and increases the barrier thickness of the skin while promoting healthy collagen formation.[42]

Dead sea silt (mud made up of very fine particles) helps to purify and calm the skin. Dead sea mud is also rich in magnesium, calcium, potassium, and iron—essential minerals that keep skin supple and healthy.

How to use your face mask effectively

There are several different types of masks and the way you apply them varies. Here, we will look at a few of the conventional application methods and walk you through their use.

However, always make sure to read the directions on the package and follow them. Because every mask will contain different ingredients, the instructions on the package will be specific to those ingredients. Misuse of masks, and other skincare products, can lead to skin irritation.

Thus, think of this as a primer that gives the basics of application and helps you understand why masks are used the way they are, but always refine the application process by following the directions.

By this point, you should have assessed your skin type and any skin concerns you have, as this has helped you pick out the best natural face mask for your skin.

Step 1: Clean your face & hands (apply toner if desired)

Most masks will be applied to your skin after you have washed and dried it. Dirt and grime act as a barrier between your skin and the healing compounds of the mask. So, your first step will be to wash and dry your hands, whatever dirt is on your hands will end up on your face if you don’t cleanse them first.

Then, you want to clean and wash your face, using a gentle cleanser. Finally, pat it dry with a fresh, clean towel. Never rub your face as this can pull on the skin, which leads to sagging and can cause microtears, further irritating, and inflaming your skin.

Now is the time to apply a toner if you wish. This is particularly beneficial if you use a toner that prepares your skin for the rest of your routine, improving your skin’s ability to absorb the compounds from the mask.

From here, things will deviate a bit based on the type of mask.

Step 2: Apply the mask

There are several different types of masks, so this process can vary, as can the wait time and removal process. So, we will break these steps down by mask type.

Overnight masks

These masks are usually hydrating and target issues with moisture control and aging. Apply these masks once you have completed the rest of your nighttime skincare regimen. If you have dehydrated skin, you may want to apply your nighttime moisturizer before you apply the mask, or you may choose to skip your moisturizer when using a hydrating mask.

Now, smooth the mask in an even layer over your skin, avoiding the lips and eyes. It doesn’t have to be super thick. Check the directions as some formulas work best by massaging them into the skin, while others just require that you spread them evenly and then leave it.

As the name states, you are going to leave this one on overnight before going to the removal step.

Cream masks

These common masks come in two varieties, but that mainly affects the method by which you remove them, they are either peel-off or rinse-off. Use these types of masks after cleansing, and perhaps toning, but before the rest of your routine.

Apply the cream in an even layer on your face avoiding lips, eyes, eyebrows, and any facial hair you have (especially important for the peel-off varieties).

Leave it on for the recommended amount of time in the directions—usually 10 – 20 minutes.

Note:

The actual time you leave them on may vary depending on your climate. You never want a mask to become completely dry; this will pull moisture out of your skin—not good! If you notice that the mask is dry almost all the way through, but you haven’t hit the recommended amount of time, you want to remove the mask.

Gel mask

Gel masks are usually targeted at dry and sensitive skin as they work wonders to soothe and bring a cool refreshed feeling to your face. Use these types of masks after cleansing, and perhaps toning, but before the rest of your routine.

As with a cream mask, spread an even layer over your face avoiding the eyes and lips. Again, it doesn’t have to be thick. Applying too thick of a coat is wasteful and won’t yield better results.

Leave it on for the recommended amount of time.

Clay or mud-based mask

Organic mud masks are all about deep cleaning and pore purification. Again, use these types of masks after cleansing, and perhaps toning, but before the rest of your routine.

You want to use about a quarter-sized amount and spread it evenly from the top of your neck to the top of your head using your fingertips. Avoid the lips and eyes.

Leave it on for the recommended time, watching that the mask does not become too dry.

Sheet masks

These come in precut sheets that you lay on your face. The first step here is to make sure the mask is shaped and sized appropriately for your face. Do not be afraid to get out a pair of scissors and trim the mask to fit your features.

Once you’ve fit the mask to your face, it is time to apply it. Line the mask up with your facial features and gently press it into place.

Leave it on for the recommended amount of time. Again, watching that it does not dry out too much as this will suck the moisture out of your skin.

Bubble masks

These fun masks bubble up once you apply them, which can make for a whimsical selfie moment.

Just like with clay or mud masks, take a quarter-sized dollop on your fingers and spread it evenly over your face avoiding your eyes and lips.

Wait for the recommended amount of time and then move to the next step, removal!

Step 3: Remove the mask

As we previously mentioned, there are two types of masks when it comes to removal, peel-off and rinse-off. I suppose it could be argued that there is the third option, overnight masks, which do not require rinsing unless the directions state otherwise.

Let’s review how to remove each type:

Peel-off (including sheet masks)

These are the masks that set into a peelable sheet or started out as a sheet mask.

Gently remove the mask by starting at the bottom and taking your time to peel it up and away from your face carefully. If there is any remaining serum on the surface of your skin, gently massage it in using your fingertips to make upward circular motions.

Proceed with the rest of your skincare routine. No need to rinse!

Rinse-off

Use lukewarm or cool water, warm water damages the skin and triggers an immune response which leads to irritation and inflammation.

Gentle rub the mask off using your fingertips. Never scrub; this causes damage. Think massage, not vigorous scrubbing action.

Again, pat your face dry as scrubbing damages the skin. Then, proceed with the rest of your routine.

Step 4: Apply the rest of your skincare products

At the very least, this should include a moisturizer. However, if you are using any other creams, serums, or treatments, apply them now and then finish with your favorite soothing moisturizer to lock in hydration and all those nourishing compounds.

Types of masks you can use on your face

We discussed that you need to have a goal for your skin to pick the best face mask. Here, we will breakdown face masks by the type of treatment they provide, we will discuss which conditions they target and some of the ingredients you should look for depending on the effects you desire from a mask.

Deep cleanse (detoxifying)

Detox is a popular buzz word, but primarily, these deep cleaning or “detoxifying” masks are pulling impurities from the surface of your skin and inside your pores.

A deep cleanse works well for those with oily sets or who are prone to acne. Excess oil on your skin traps contaminants on the surface and in your pores, it can also trap dead cells that would otherwise be shed.

Both of these conditions create an environment perfect for bacteria growth leading to breakouts. Look for ingredients like green tea, charcoal, and sulfur, preferably in a mud or clay mask.

Green tea is chock-full of antioxidants that help treat acne and scars while sulfur and charcoal help to remove excess oil, impurities, and dead skin cells. Sulfur is also antibacterial and nearly as good at killing P. acnes (the breakout causing microorganism that is the source of bacterial acne).[45][46][47][48]

Two common types of clay used for this purpose are bentonite clay and kaolin clay. They both work to remove excess sebum (the skin’s natural oil) and any impurities and dead cells contained within.

Brightening: Skin tone & texture/anti-aging

We put brightening and antiaging together as they often go hand-in-hand and are treated with similar ingredients.

If you have dark spots or an uneven complexion, you want to look for ingredients that help to reduce the appearance of discoloration and even out your skin tone. Vitamin C and licorice extract (sometimes listed as ascorbic acid and dipotassium glycyrrhizate respectively) can help condition the skin and reduce inflammation and discoloration.[49]

Vitamin C not only helps to even out the color on your skin, but it contains naturally occurring AHAs, which will help to remove any patches of dead cells that can make skin look dull and lifeless. It also promotes the growth of healthy collagen, improving skin texture as well.[50]

Papaya extract, which contains the enzyme papain (look for either of them on the label), is also great for brightening up your complexion and tightening your skin for a firm, plump appearance.

Papaya extract is rich in vitamins A and C as well as the enzyme papain, which all work to remove the buildup of cell waste and dead skin cells, promoting the formation of healthy collagen and elastin by the fibroblasts in your skin.[51]

Hyaluronic acid will help bring moisture into the skin and improve its texture.

You also want to look for retinol or other retinoids (types of vitamin A). These are especially good at combating fine lines and wrinkles, bringing youthful plumpness back to your skin texture. They also help to even out skin tone and reduce the visibility of dark spots.[52][53]

Exfoliating

There are two types of exfoliation: chemical and manual. Chemical exfoliators are generally considered the gentlest way to exfoliate skin, as manual exfoliation involves scrubbing with a tool or a face scrub that contains small particles that use abrasion to remove the buildup of dead cells. This manual action can cause microtears in your skin.

Chemical exfoliators are suited to all skin types but are great for dry, sensitive, and acne-prone skin as they work on the surface and into the pores.

There are three broad categories that you will find. In order, starting from gentlest, they are fruit enzymes like papain or bromelain from pineapple, to AHAs like glycolic acid or malic acid, to the most potent BHAs like salicylic acid. If you are not sure where to start, go for the gentlest option (fruit enzymes) and work your way up, if you find they aren’t strong enough.[54]

Manual exfoliators can be used by those with more robust and oilier skin. Still, you don’t want any irregular or jagged shaped particles in there. Jojoba beads or esters and cellulose are two regular shaped, round particle varieties that can exfoliate your skin without causing microtears.

Other options include seeds and shells, but make sure they have been milled to a circular shape, or else you are going to do far more damage than good for your skin.[55][56]

Soothing

You want something packed with anti-inflammatory ingredients, sulfur and kaolin are good options. Chamomile, lavender, clary sage, calamine powder, licorice root, and many more can help reduce inflammation and calm skin irritation.

It is important to note that essential oils are very soothing for some skin while irritating on others, so make sure you do a spot test before committing to a face mask containing these ingredients.[57][58][59]

Hydrating

Sometimes your skin just needs a hit of that sweet, sweet hydration. If that is the case, look for the common hydrating culprits like hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, jojoba oil, glycerin, and many more.

Jojoba is one of our favorites as it not only provides moisture for your skin and helps to support its natural barrier, but if you have an oily complexion, it helps to control the skin’s production of sebum, reducing the amount of natural oil your skin produces.

That covers the majority of skin conditions that masks are targeted to treat, but it is by no means exhaustive. Some masks are formulated to hit multiple concerns, so no matter what your battling, there is a mask out there that can help you.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

How often should I use masks in my skincare routine?

The answer depends on the mask. You can use face masks daily as long as they are soothing or hydrating. However, deep cleansing (“detoxifying”) or exfoliating masks should only be used once per week, maybe twice if you have very resilient skin. Too much and it will cause irritation.

Can I use more than one mask at a time?

Depending on the type of mask, you can. In general, you don’t want to put too much on your skin in any one day if you are using harsher treatments like deep cleansers or exfoliators. If you are using either of those stick to one mask per day, and only a few times per week.

However, you can follow either of those potent treatments with a soothing or hydrating mask as either of them will help your skin recover from the cleaning process.

Another option is to apply two different masks to separate areas of your face at one time. Multi-masking is often useful for combination skin types. It is perfectly fine to use something hydrating on one area and something that provides a deep clean on the oilier patches.

Follow that up with a soothing mask to calm the skin and then your favorite moisturizer to lock everything in.

What time of day is best?

Except for overnight masks, there isn’t necessarily the best time of day. One exception is for masks that contain retinol or retinoid compounds (A vitamins and similar compounds).

Any product that includes these, face mask or otherwise, makes your skin more susceptible to UV radiation. As such, they are best used when you get home in the evening and don’t plan on going out into the sun until the next day.

Other than those two cases, it is really about when you have time to do the prep and wait for the mask to work before removing it. Face masks can be a great way to pamper yourself and relax, so doing it during times of rest and relaxation after work or on the weekends are some of our favorite times to use these beauties.

Should my face tingle or burn?

Some tingling is normal, especially for exfoliating masks that contain AHAs or BHAs. It is also a common sensation to feel as a mask begins to dry.

If the sensation becomes too intense or turns to a burning sensation, you want to get the mask off quickly and probably skip using it in the future.

Some slight tingling is normal, burning and itching are not.

Can I use a face mask if I have a beard?

In short, yes. If you have a long beard, apply it to the areas of your skin that are not covered by facial hair. If you have a shorter beard, where you can get the mask onto the surface of the skin, then you can apply the mask to your entire face.

Don’t worry, if you have a longer beard, you have some natural protection against damage, impurities, and moisture loss anyways. Just make sure that you keep your beard clean and conditioned.

Also, if you’ve had a long beard for a while and shave it off, expect the skin underneath to be more sensitive than the rest of your face.

Conclusion

Face masks are a great way to get some extra hydrating, soothing ingredients in your skin to help combat the stresses of the week. They are also a potent and targeted way to add on treatments that can address any skin concern you might have from aging to discoloration to dry, sensitive, oily, or acne-prone skin.

Remember to look for ingredients that are right for your skin type and that target the conditions you want to alleviate. With such a wide range of options, there is a face mask for everyone.

Once you’ve found the right ones, it is so easy to add them into your routine, just make sure to wash your face and hands, apply a toner if you use one, and then get that face mask on there. Once you’re done, remove the mask and continue with the rest of your routine.

Just like most things, they can seem intimidating or confusing at first, but once you get the basics down, it’s a breeze!
