If you’re already struggling with your new year health kick then a brightening, zero-effort face mask could be just what you need. These are our favourites.
We are big fans of Una Brennan’s no-nonsense Super Facialist skincare which is as functional as it is affordable. The Salicylic Acid Anti-Blemish Clay Mask, £9.99, is no exception providing a deep cleaning mask that never fails to leave skin feeling fresh and glowing.
Leave on masks are not for everyone but Ren’s Wake Wonderful Night-Time Facial, £32, really does provide great results – the glycolic acid can feel quite tingly at first but while you sleep the mask will exfoliate and hydrate leaving wonderfully smooth skin when you wake.
We were first introduced to Anne Semonin’s fabulous skincare through facials at Claridges’ beauty rooms many years ago. The Mineral Mask £42, was a favourite product back then and is still as good today. Marine extracts and minerals give the mask a pungent, river bed aroma – but it is brilliantly decongesting and brightening.
Sisley’s skincare is never cheap but it’s always excellent. The Radiant Glow Express Mask, £65.70, is a gentle red clay mask that works quickly to give a lovely glow without the blotchiness that some other masks cause.
