Breakouts, fine lines, dark circles, dull complexion or dehydrated skin: these little skin concerns can quickly affect our mood. For a big night out or just everyday life, taking care of your skin becomes an essential ritual. And at the heart of this routine, face masks stand out as true allies. Hydrating, purifying, glow-boosting or anti-aging: here’s how to choose the best face mask for your skin type.
The most plumping
For fans of sheet masks, those who love a quiet fifteen-minute ritual on a Sunday, this one by Mario Badescu ticks every box. Packed with peptides, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and collagen, it melts into the skin minute after minute. The result: a softer, brighter complexion, as if plumped from within.
The most nourishing
Looking for a nourishing face mask that fits easily into your routine? The one from myBlend does the job with its rich formula packed with shea butter and peptides, restoring density and comfort to the skin. Its creamy, honey-like texture wraps the face, leaving features softer and visibly plumped.
The brightest glow
Need a real glow boost? Our favorite K-beauty brand Innisfree delivers a pomegranate face mask loaded with antioxidants. Infused with hydrating plants and fruit extracts, it feels like a fresh second skin. Perfect before makeup for that glossy, radiant finish.
The most comforting
No more DIY yogurt masks in the kitchen. If yogurt is involved, let Korres handle it. This probiotic face maskrebalances the microbiome, strengthens the skin barrier and deeply nourishes. Its fresh texture soothes instantly, while its soft, milky scent becomes almost addictive.
The iciest
Cryotherapy is everywhere—and for good reason: the effect is immediate. When Dr. Jart+ transforms it into a hydrating face mask, it becomes the perfect evening skin reset. The cooling sensation boosts micro-circulation, followed by an algae and clay mask that soothes instantly. In minutes, the face looks fresher and revitalized.
The ultimate reset
The Les Huilettes face mask works like a true detox break for the skin. Its prebiotic rebalances the microbiome, papaya enzyme smooths texture, and white clay purifies without drying. Peppermint and tea tree add a refreshing kick, while zinc helps calm imperfections.
-The most relaxing
Tired features, dark circles, and a dull mirror reflection? This LNP-R01 sheet mask feels like a welcome pause. Cellulose sheets soaked in active ingredients meet a rich essence gel, delivering a fresh, comfortable sensation. Minutes later, the face looks smoother and well-rested.
The most pop
Our pop queen Rihanna may not be dropping albums, but her Fenty Skin line keeps delivering hits. This hydrating face mask with a refreshing, granita-like texture hydrates, plumps and strengthens the skin barrier. Kalahari watermelon, starfruit and Barbados cherry create a fruity cocktail for bouncy, supple skin.
The most viral
Biodance is the viral K-beauty brand everyone’s talking about. This collagen face mask isn’t a quick fix: it stays on for two to three hours while the skin absorbs everything. Once removed, the result is surprising—smooth, baby-soft, bouncy skin.
The overnight glow
No time for a mask during the day? Laneige handles it while you sleep. This overnight hydrating mask with a fresh gel-cream texture is applied as the last step of your routine. Its 3X Hyaluronic Night Blend™ floods the skin with moisture, while squalane, niacinamide and ceramides strengthen the skin barrier and smooth features.
