From sheet masks to pore-clearing ones, these are the best masks for all your skin needs.
TimeWise Repair Lifting Bio-Cellulose Mask, $100 for a box of four, Mary Kay
First, you get instant hydration. Next, upon using this fabric-like sheet mask—which drives a cocktail of conditioning sodium hyaluronate, soothing oat kernel and UV radiation combatting orchid extract deep into skin—twice a week, your skin will enjoy increased tautness and softness.
Oil Control Mineral Cloud-Silk Mask, $16 for three pieces, For Beloved Girl
“I have combination skin that tends to break out, so I love a mask that’s for oil control. I also love its tea tree oil content because I feel it helping and soothing my skin while preventing breakouts!”—Fiona Fussi
Bio Cellulose Facial Treatment Mask, $170, 111SKIN
Rich in antioxidants, this bio-cellulose mask is formulated to secure
moisture while it regulates and cools your body temperature. There’s also liquorice root for brightening, silk amino acids for conditioning and herbaceous Centella asiatica for collagen production, all of which penetrate the dermis to hydrate the skin.
Flawless Brightening Ethyl Ascorbic Acid Bio-Cellulose Mask, $63, For Beloved One
Formulated to target sallow Asian skin that is prone to dark spots, the star ingredient of this bio-cellulose mask is ethyl ascorbic acid, a stable form of vitamin C known for its skin-brightening capabilities. As a bonus, Brightenyl inhibits melanin production, so your skin stays brighter for longer.
Sound Sleep Cocoon, $153, Dermalogica
Imagine a blanket of hydration cocooning your skin as you sleep. This moisturiser works its magic overnight to repair, hydrate and brighten the complexion, without being too heavy for Singapore’s weather. The gel-cream is also formulated with French lavender essential oil (with sandalwood and patchouli) to promote better sleep.
Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask to Clear Pores, $52, Origins
A godsend for oily and congested skin types, use this mask one to two times a week for a clarified complexion. A combination of bamboo charcoal and white China clay purifies skin and minimises the appearance of pores.
Belle De Jour Dream Night Mask, $136, Kenzoki
Whether smoothed on thinly before bed, or generously slathered on for 15 minutes, skin that shines with renewed radiance is a given after using this silky mask. It works to protect your skin, restore it from the damages of environmental aggressors and stimulate collagen production.
Detoxilyn City Mask, $140, By Terry
The name says it all—this mask is made for the city girl. Enriched with anti-pollution peptides and alpine rose cells, it goes on as an airy foam to help unclog pores, calm inflammation and smoothen skin texture. The result? A dewy visage that glows with health.
Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Creamy Mask, $148, Sulwhasoo
You won’t believe how bouncy your face feels after peeling off this lavish two piece mask that is saturated with active ginseng ingredients. Then there’s that “glassy” skin finish (read: non-stop glow) that lasts for at least 24 hours after. While superrich, it’s also completely mess-free, thanks to a Double Wrapping Sheet that hugs the facial contours to deeply infuse all that goodness.
