The Best Face Masks For Your Skin Type
Here at Missy.ie we are strong believers that self-care does not have to be strictly for Sundays! Not only are facemasks fantastic as a form of self-care but if chosen well they can also benefit your skin. I love face masks and in the same way that I cater my make-up products to match my skin, I make a conscious effort to select the most suitable facemasks. To help you get the most benefit we have selected the best options appropriate for your skin type!
Best Facemasks For Oily skin
Certain face masks are particularly effective to help combat oily skin as they absorb excess oil without drying your skin out and leaving your complexion dull and tired.
Sheet mask
Soap and Glory The Fab Pore Pore-Refining Sheet Mask
This is my favourite face mask for a little indulgent skincare! The ingredients include tea tree, lavender, lemon balm, eucalyptus and mint to create the perfect healthy treat for your skin. Even the oiliest skin is left with a shine-free and matte complexion after this dreamy mask.
Clay mask
La Roche Posay Effaclar Clay Mask
This clay mask is specially formulated to absorb the excess oil from the skin by targeting the sebum deeper than just the surface. Like most La Roche Posay products it is suitable for sensitive skin and it works effectively and efficiently from the very first application.

ELF Hydrating Bubble Face Mask
This mask is not only amazing for your oily skin but it is also great value for money. It refreshes your oily zones as the gel formula fizzes into tiny bubbles that cleanse and moisturise your skin.
Best Facemasks For Combination skin
Combination skin requires facemasks that help to treat shine proof areas while also hydrating dryer patches. This might sound difficult and counterproductive, but these three masks are perfect to treat your combination complexion.
Sheet mask
Garnier Moisture Bomb Green Tea Hydrating Face Sheet Mask for Combination Skin
Garnier have created a fantastic range of sheet masks and this one is specifically formulated to benefit those with combination skin. The sheet mask is infused with green tea and hyaluronic acid to nourish and rebalance your complexion by maintaining healthy skin.
Clay mask
PIXI Glow Mud Mask
This clay mud mask rebalances the skin with the use of ginseng and aloe vera. It also clears skin and works to reduce future breakouts while brightening and revitalizing your combination complexion.

Soap and Glory No Pores Allowed
After using this self-heating detox mask, combination skin feels perfectly refreshed and cleansed. It reduces the size of your pores and is particularly effective around areas prone to build up of blackheads, helping to leave skin soft and smooth.
Best Facemasks For Dry skin
Hydrating face masks in particular can do wonders for dry skin by adding moisture and nourishment to your complexion.
Sheet mask
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hydrogel Recovery Mask
This sheet mask is made from active serum and enriched with Hyaluronic Acid. It improves the softness of even the driest of skin. The mask hydrates your skin so effectively that the application of one mask is equal to one month’s usage of serum!
Clay mask
Charlotte Tilbury Goddess Skin Clay Mask
Clay masks are typically associated with drying skin but actually when chosen correctly they can hydrate your dry skin. This Charlotte Tilbury choice is formulated with sweet almond oil to smoothen out pores and brighten your complexion.
