Face masks can instantly transform your at-home skincare routine into a serene, spa-worthy oasis. Whether you’re using a face mask throughout the week for ultra-pampering skincare benefits, like deep hydration and the removal of excess oils, or as the perfect pairing for a night with friends and a glass of wine, it’s always key to understand what your skincare face mask is doing for you and which kinds work best with your skin type to get the most out of those 20-minute self-care skincare spa treatments.
Gel Masks
Help bring the appearance of brightness back to your complexion by gently lifting off dead skin, excess oil and surface impurities from the top layer of your skin to help reveal a more natural-looking glow. Environmental pollution and UV rays can take a toll on your complexion, but an exfoliating gel mask can help balance out the appearance of skin tone. Aloette Restorative Enzyme Peel Exfoliating Gel helps deliver results in just 60 seconds.
Best For:
Sensitive Skin: Restorative Enzyme peel is an exfoliating option that is great for those with more temperamental skin as it utilizes Fruit Enzymes to gently removes dead skin cells. It also contains Aloe Vera which is known for its soothing benefits that hydrate and relieve dry, sensitive skin!
Sheet Masks
More of an on-the-go option, the sheet mask is a thin cloth sheet with holes for the eyes and mouth that’s pre-soaked in skin-loving serums. These skincare masks provide your skin with the much-needed moisture and nutrients that help create a firmer, more radiant-looking complexion. This hydration-intensive mask is specially designed to create a moisture barrier for your skin to help lock in the benefits of the treatment. And, a cool bonus with this mask type is the ability to help hyper-treat the appearance of skin for certain skin concerns, whether it be dark spots or fine lines. Try applying Aloette Skin Refining Toner before you apply your sheet mask to help soak in as many nutrients as possible.
Best For:
Dry/Normal/Combination Skin: Sheet masks answer your skin’s SOS to boost hydration and lock in the moisture for a healthier-looking complexion.
Overnight Masks
A mask that encourages us to get our beauty sleep? You don’t need to tell us twice. Overnight skincare masks are the revitalizing finish for your evening skincare routine, designed to boost deep hydration into the skin throughout your sleep. Simply apply to cleansed, toned skin before bed and wash off when you wake up, or simply rub the excess product into the skin! The lightweight, creamy, age-defying formula helps protect skin while moisturizing throughout the night. This is a great option for anyone who needs an extra boost of moisture to help get that dewy morning glow-look. Try mixing in Aloette best-selling Beauty Parfait Probiotic Yogurt Treatment with your overnight mask or night cream to help soothe and rehydrate the skin.
Best For:
Mature Skin: As we age, our natural skin hydration can, so it’s always a good idea to help replenish that moisture with good-for-your-skin skincare products. We love an overnight mask for mature skin because it’s gentle yet helps bring back a youthful-looking glow—all while you sleep!
Mud/Clay Masks
Really indulge in the luxe spa day feel with a mud or clay mask. These pore-refining skincare stars draw out impurities like magnets to help balance and firm the appearance of your complexion. Mineral-rich and naturally detoxifying, mud masks help draw out excess dirt and oil to clarify the look of your complexion. The Aloette Muddy Up Deep Cleansing Masque gently pampers the skin while working double-time to help draw out pore-clogging impurities and brighten the appearance of skin.
Best For:
Oily/Acne-Prone Skin: Mud and clay masks will help absorb extra oil secretion from your skin to leave you with a radiant-looking glow. These nutrient-rich masks are also known for being antibacterial, which can help reduce the appearance of breakouts.
Be Mindful of Your Complexion:
Mud and clay masks are very absorbent, which means that while deep-cleaning pores, they may soak up too much moisture from dry and sensitive skin types to make this a good option for regular use. An exfoliating skincare mask is a good alternative, as it can also lift away oil and dirt without drying out the skin.
Exfoliating Masks
Exfoliating is a must in the skincare world, as it helps you get rid of dead skin buildup, draw our pore-clogging impurities and balance the look of the complexion for smoother-looking skin. These skincare masks often contain tiny exfoliating particles that help polish away dull skin for a brighter-looking complexion.
Best For:
All Skin Types: Everyone can benefit from the rejuvenation that the deep-cleansing exfoliating mask can provide. Those with oily and acne-prone skin might benefit from the Aloette Stick Shift Exfoliating Cleanser Stick with skin-purifying Charcoal and Moroccan Lava Clay.
Be Mindful of Your Complexion:
Worried about exfoliating your sensitive skin? The Aloette Face Polish Gentle Oatmeal Scrub is formulated with gentle organic aloe vera to help smooth the appearance of skin.
