#theskinproject- face masks and treatments

Hey guys

This week's topic is all about face masks and treatments!

I think face masks are one of the best things we can use to help our skin. A lot of them provide deep cleansing and when used regularly can help to prevent breakouts.
Before using any face mask it's important to know what type of skin you have be it oily, combination, sensitive or dry. Each face mask won't suit everybody so it's important to know so you avoid over hydrating your skin, or drying it out.

I like to use face masks as a way of relaxing. I also run to them when I've been a bit slack and my face is beginning to suffer...

I recently talked about my favourite face mask of all time. It actually was my stand out product of 2013.

This is a face mask by Soap and Glory. Ashamedly, this is the only Soap and Glory product I've used but I plan to change that this year. Hopefully they won't disappoint as they've set some high standards now.

Anyway, I definitely recommend this for people with oily skin like me. it doesn't cost much either. It costs £10 but is always on offer in boots so might as well stock up on it while you can!

It contains everything a girl needs to help keep the face healthy and shiny! It also contains anti-aging features which is great news for some of you but if I'm totally honest it isn't something big on my list right now but I've heard it's good to start young so maybe I should look into it... But that's for another post.

As I have recently, written about this, I don't want to go on too much as I'll be repeating myself but if you want to find out more you can can read all about it here.


Other face masks I have used and also would recommend include

Masks with superfruit extracts and tea tree oil are very good for blemish prone/oily skin.


Which face masks do you use? Can any of them beat my favourite? Do let me know!

  1. I love using face masks, it makes my skin feel good and it has made a difference in those days where i feel like "i really look bad"! aha i try to use them once a week, and lately i've been using Montagne Jeunesse Sensuous Spice Self heating mask which is great to open pores and cleaning impurities! I really like it but starting to think about using homemade recipies because i know some of those masks although they feel great, they also have all those chemicals and some of them aren't good at all! So i'll probably will find myself some nice diy face masks to start using after i finish my Montagne Jeunesse :) great post!
