Alya Skin pink clay mask
This is your perfect Sunday night mask – head into the week with a Monday morning glow! The pink clay detoxifies and brightens the skin, tightening pores and extracting pollutants from the skin, and in turn helping clear up blemishes.
Grown Alchemist age repair gel mask
Designed to combat signs of ageing, this mask from Grown Alchemist is lightweight and includes pomegranate extract to form and smooth the skin. The gel mask increases skin elasticity, hydrates, firms and nourishes the face, leaving the skin smooth and supple.
Prep and maintain
Most masks need to go onto clean, dry skin to work, so be sure you remove any products or makeup before applying. Also, make sure you moisturise with your usual routine after removing your mask to ensure your skin retains all that glow-y goodness.
