THREE OF MY FAVOURITE FACE MASKS

Don’t you just love it when you find a wonderful face mask? I’ve certainly found 3 that I keep going back to time and time again, so I thought i’d take this opportunity to share them with you all. 

Origins is one of my all time favourite brands, and it is certainly no secret that their skincare is excellent quality and just wonderful on the skin, so its hardly surprising that two out of three of these masks are from Origins (totally not sponsored) 

The first that I have loved for YEARS has to be the Origins overnight drink-up intensive mask, wow this product is amazing. 

First of all it smells incredible, and secondly, my skin feels so hydrated when I wake up in the morning after using this. As we seem to be having nothing but cold weather and snow recently I find it is even more essential my skin needs a really good intensive moisturise. This isn't thick and heavy, it sinks so nicely into my skin, and I definitely feel as though it is absorbed well. I usually use this mask twice a week, although when I was in Slovenia as it was so cold, I used it every night and it didn't have any adverse affect to my skin for doing that, which was wonderful to know. 

Next up is the Origins out of trouble 10 minute mask, is another long time favourite, it is aimed for oily skin, to soak up that wonderful shine (which btw it does fantastically) and evens out rough textures of skin, and helps reduce breakouts. Now I have been getting awful breakouts recently, its like I've been harvesting a couple hundred volcanos on my jawline, so I find using this mask at least once or twice a week just helps to reduce a couple of the volcanos, and to just really cleanse any dirt and oil away from my skin. I definitely notice how clean and even my skin feels after using this product. I find a little goes a long way, although I do lay it heavier on my more problem areas, when needed. 

Finally another favourite is the Body Shop warming mineral mask, this always feels so nice to apply, the more you work it on to your skin with your fingers the warmer it feels, now don't worry it doesn’t get really hot, it just has a nice temperature to it, which in this cold weather is helpful. Applying a cold mask when already cold is never fun. Again this mask is aimed for reducing oily skin, which it definitely does the job on that, I definitely notice the appearance of my skin looks a lot more matte after using. The only downside I have noticed is that as the product is so thick, like clay. It is so hard to squeeze out of the tube, especially when its a few months old. I actually thought the top had dried up and blocked the hole, but it just seems to become so thick so it is a bit of a pain to get out and onto your face, but so worth it. My boyfriend even loves this one, he always asks me to pamper him and apply this face mask, so it’s a winner all round in this household.

Do you use any of these face masks? Do you have any recommendations, I’d love to hear them.
