Hello everyone!
So, here's the next instalment in my 'Top 5' series and as you can see from the title it's my top 5 face masks! I love to do little pamper evenings at least once a week, two if I have the time. Depending on how my skin is behaving at the time, depends on which face mask I use. I like to cater to deal with the problems that my skin is having at that time.
Soap & Glory The Fab Pore 2-in-1 mask & peel - This is one that I use whenever I'm feeling like there's a build up of blackheads, usually around my nose and on my chin. I only apply it to those areas and I leave it on for around 10-15 minutes. I love this because of the little exfoliating particles, I really feel like it gets in there and works to get rid of any blackheads.
Lush Cupcake Fresh Face Mask - I love to use this for when I have had a bad breakout, which luckily I don't get very often. I like to use it allover my face, not just on the areas of breakouts. I use it quite frequently, from when I feel and spots appearing to after they've gone to help get rid of any marks they may have left. I love the smell of this, it smells like mint chocolate! The only thing I don't like about this mask is that it is best used up before a certain date which I sometimes struggle to do.
The Body Shop Seaweed Ionic Clay Mask - This mask is designed for combination / oily skin which is brilliant for me as on my forehead, around my nose and on my chin is oily, whereas the rest of my skin is quite dry, especially in autumn and winter. This mask purifies, cleanses and controls excess oil, which is perfect for me. Whenever I use this mask, I know that it is doing amazing things for my skin because once it has dried, I can see dark dots where my pores are showing that it is extracting excess oil from my skin. The fact that I can see it doing something really makes me feel that it is making a difference.
Sanctuary Deep Cleanse Facial 5 Minute Thermal Detox Mask - This is possible my favourite face mask that I have tried, EVER. I love that it is a warming mask because you can feel it working on your skin. Also, it makes it easier to judge when to remove the mask as you just remove it once it has completely cooled down. Another thing I love about this mask is that it doesn't go hard and set your face, so you can carry on doing things around the house while this works it's magic. Every time I use this, it leaves my skin feeling so soft and fresh, I love it.
Avon Clearskin Professional Liquid Extraction Strip - This isn't so much a face mask, more of a pore extracting strip in liquid form. I like to steam my face to ensure that my pores are open before I apply this because I feel like that gives better results. I then squeeze a little of this onto my finger and spread over my nose and chin. After waiting a little while the liquid will set and dry a little. This is when you can peel it off and extract those blackheads. I feel that this a lot gentler version of pore extraction strips, which I don't like to use as I feel they are quite harsh on the skin.
