TOP 5 FACE MASKS

top 5 face masks

I never really used to use face masks; I think I was a little afraid of them. As I got into beauty blogging + vlogging, I started testing them out and collaborating with brands who have them. And now I’m a bit of a junkie. I have combination skin (with an oily T-zone) and I’m breakout prone, so I tend to go for clarifying and mud-based masks. Here are my top 5 face masks:

1. DECIEM NIOD FLAVANONE MUD MASK

I found about this brand while roaming the Distillery District in Toronto, and now they’re everywhere. The company started to rebel against the insane markup that beauty companies use (I should note that they’ve now partnered with Estee Lauder). Anyway, this mask is one of my favourites for breakouts and for calming my skin – I use it for about 12 minutes (I would start slowly as it can sting sometimes).

2. BIORE CHARCOAL NOSE STRIPS

Yes, like the ones we used to use as kids! They’ve updated these strip masks with charcoal and they’re great for getting dirt, oil, and blackheads out.

3. FIRST AID BEAUTY OVERNIGHT HYDRATING CREAM

Not necessarily a mask, but a heavy overnight cream – it doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin and is incredibly hydrating. It also helps with fine lines + wrinkles, which is always good.

4. CHARLOTTE TILBURY GODDESS SKIN CLAY MASK

When getting my makeup done by a Charlotte Tilbury makeup artist, shes applied this mask to one hand and the difference was astounding. This mask has purifying clay in it, but also plumps the skin and makes it super glowing.

5. GLAMGLOW SUPERMUD

Again, a mud based clarifying mask with activated-X charcoal. It is also an Allure Reader’s Choice award winner.

    Love the moisturizers from First Aid Beauty they are my go to as they don’t make me break out either. Origins has a charcoal clay mask that is amazing and Fresh has a umbrian clay mask that I love too. I would highly recommend.
