When it comes to face masks, there are a few main types. Depending on the type of skin you have, and what your main focus is, will depend on which kind you should use. A note before we begin: always be sure to use cleanser and toner (optional) before you apply a mask and/or exfoliate. Most masks can be used 1-2 times per week.
Types of Face Masks: Gel-based masks
Cream-based masks
Clay-based masks
Sheet masks
Want to opt for an exfoliator? These can be used 1-3 times a week, or less if you have sensitive skin. The purpose of an exfoliator is essentially the same as that of a face mask; to remove dead skin cells and help your skin attain its beautiful glow. Using an exfoliator also preps your skin so it can more readily absorb moisturizer and other products following in your skin care regimen. It aids in clearer skin, healthier skin, and a more even skin tone.
