Gel
Mmm gel masks! There is something deliciously soothing about applying a cold gel mask. Gel masks are great for most skin types and is great for skin that looks a bit dull after a hectic week or late nights! They often have a light, juicy and cooling texture that improves radiance, hydration and makes our skin look plump and fresh.

Clay
Clay masks are a centuries old beauty secret for cleansing and purifying the skin. They were even used back in ancient Egypt, so you can definitely say they’ve been tried and tested! They help to purify the skin, and draw out dirt, oil and impurities, so they’re superb if you have oily or acne-prone skin! As a bonus, they often contain hydrating ingredients and minerals that are beneficial for other skin types too.

Cream
Cream masks are a classic go-to when our skin needs a treat – slathering on a thick layer of a nourishing cream mask rejuvenates our skin like nothing else! Cream masks are moisturising and deep conditioning, full of beneficial oils and moisture-binding ingredients which make them especially beneficial for dry skin.

And the best part – they don’t have to be rinsed off, so it’s perfect whether you’re on a plane, in a spa or in your own bathroom.
