Face masks provide deep nourishment, hydration, and targeted treatment for various skin concerns. Whether you choose a hydrating face mask for moisture, an exfoliating face mask to remove dead skin cells, or a sheet face mask for a quick glow boost, regular use of face masks can enhance your skincare routine and improve your skin’s texture and appearance.

While face masks are not an absolute necessity in a skincare routine, they can provide significant benefits depending on your skin’s needs. A face mask helps replenish moisture, an exfoliating face mask removes dead skin cells, and a sheet face mask delivers concentrated ingredients for an instant glow.

While your daily skincare routine should focus on cleansing, moisturising, and sun protection, incorporating facial masks 1-3 times a week can enhance your results by targeting specific concerns like dryness, acne, or dullness.

To use a face mask in your skincare routine, start with a clean face by removing dirt, oil, and makeup with a gentle cleanser. Apply an even layer of an exfoliating face mask or a hydrating cream, clay, or gel facial mask and leave for recommended amount of time, then rinse it off. If following up with a sheet face mask after, apply and leave it on for the recommended time, usually between 10-20 minutes, then gently pat in any remaining serum into the skin.

Follow up with your usual skincare steps, including toner, serum, and moisturiser, to lock in the face mask’s benefits. For optimal results, incorporate a face mask into your routine 1-3 times per week, depending on your skin type and the mask’s purpose.

The frequency of using a facial mask depends on your skin type and the type of mask you’re using. Always consult with a Skin Expert before using:

• Hydrating face masks – 2-3 times a week for deep moisture.
• Exfoliating face masks – 1-2 times a week to avoid over-exfoliation.
• Sheet face masks – Can be used daily or as needed for a quick skin refresh.

A sheet face mask such as our B3 Glow Sheet Mask is a pre-soaked fabric mask infused with skin-loving ingredients, providing an instant boost of hydration and nutrients. Traditional facial masks, such as clay, gel, or cream masks, offer targeted treatments and require rinsing off after application. Our Power Exfoliant Mask offers the best of both worlds, combining traditional facial mask with an exfoliation twist.
