Masks

If face masks aren’t an essential part of your skincare routine, it’s not too late to start. Skin masks are perfect for delivering nutrients deep into the skin and treating specific concerns such as acne, dehydration, fine lines, wrinkles, puffiness and more. If you’re looking for a face mask online, Clarins’ masks are made with all-natural plant ingredients aimed to target your skincare concerns, enhance your complexion and nourish your skin.

Compared to a moisturiser, a skincare mask is formulated to deliver a higher concentration of active ingredients in a shorter amount of time, enabling deeper penetration and targeting specific issues with more powerful formulas.

1. For Dry or Dehydrated Skin: Choose a hydrating face mask with ingredients that lock in moisture, leaving your skin soft and plump. Soften dry skin with the Hydra-Essentiel [HA²] Cream-Mask, a hydrating face mask that effectively quenches dryness with Leaf of Life extracts. It instantly revives dehydrated complexions with a refreshing moisture boost.


2. For Oily or Congested Skin: A purifying clay mask is ideal. Clay, such as Kaolin, is excellent at absorbing excess sebum, detoxifying the pores, and minimising the appearance of shine.


3. For Lacklustre or Tired Skin: An extensive mask or one designed for radiance can help. Cryo-Flash Cream Mask, combining powerful active ingredients - M.G.A. molecule derived from menthol and organic evening primrose extract - for skin that feels lifted, firmed and glowing with youth. Within 10 minutes, your skin will have an immediate lifting and radiance-boosting effect.


4. For Mature Skin: Opt for an anti-ageing mask enriched with powerful botanicals to target firmness and elasticity.

Generally, using a facial mask two to three times a week is recommended for maintaining healthy skin. However, this can vary by product texture. Hydrating and calming masks can be used more frequently, even daily, if your skin is very dry or sensitive.

But for clay or exfoliating masks, you should use them once or twice a week to avoid over-drying or irritating the skin.

You should always apply your face mask to clean, dry skin after you have cleansed your face.

1. Cleanse: Wash your face thoroughly to remove all makeup and surface impurities with a cleanser. Then use a toner to make sure you balance the skin pH and remove any left impurities.


2. Apply Mask: Spread an even layer of the mask over your face, avoiding the eye area.


3. Wait: Leave the mask on for the time specified in the instructions (usually 10-20 minutes).


4. Rinse or Remove: Wash off with lukewarm water.


5. Follow Up: Continue with your skincare routine: serum and moisturiser.
