4 Clarifying Masks To Suit Everyone
If there is ever a time of year that I really need a deep cleansing mask it's the holiday season. As I don't hold back with how much chocolate and cheese I consume my skin tends to pay the consequences as I end up looking a little congested and spotty. So just before New Years I find myself reaching for my best cleansing masks to help get all the nasties out that might be lurking in my pores and here are four that I think are suitable for anyone and everyone.
The Favourite: Aesop Parsley Seed Masque: How many times have I waxed lyrical about this mask this year? Probably too many times and you're all sick of hearing it but hey that is what happens when I really love a product. This is probably my all time favourite deep cleansing mask because it completely clears my pores leaving my skin so much brighter and clear without leaving me with a parched complexion or ridiculously spotty afterwards. It's a pricy option but you only need a small amount so it lasts a really long time and you definitely get your moneys worth.
The Budget Buy: Una Brennan Tea Flower Deep Clean Pore Purifying Mask: I'm pretty sad that they appear to have discontinued this as it's such a great budget option. One of my favourite things about this one is that it doesn't dry down to that really uncomfortable cracking stage which isn't something I enjoy all that much. It deeply cleanses the skin without causing any irritation or dryness so if you can find this then it's a great option if you're new to the world of deep cleansing masks.
The Hydrating Option: Antipodes Aura Manuka Honey Mask: Clarifying masks and dry skin sometimes aren't an ideal combination so this option from Antipodes is great as it hydrates as well as giving the skin a deep clean. It took me a while to get used to the texture of this one as it's so thick and luxe that you can't possibly believe that is cleansing the skin as well as hydrating it. A perfect option for those winter months when we all need a boost of moisture in our routine.
The All Rounder: Elemis Fruit Active Rejuvenating Mask*: If you want something that cleanses, hydrates and brightens than this is what you're looking for. Whenever I've not got a lot of time on my hands and my skin is in desperate need of a pick me up then this is what I reach for as it is everything rolled into one. Again this doesn't dry down too much so it's super quick to remove which is just what you need when you're in a rush and need some glow injected back into your skin.
