Sheet Masks: Why We Love Them

The sheet mask craze is in full force; no matter your skin type, your needs and even your schedule, this skin treatment’s incredible properties make it a beauty go-to. What makes sheet masks so special? Here’s why we’re obsessed with them!

Sheet masks are powerful: 24-hour skin hydration

Sheet masks are designed to moisturize deeply and to promote absorption, as they prevent the liquid-based formula in which they are soaked from evaporating. The Garnier SkinActive Moisture Bomb Hydrating Sheet Mask is a perfect example of a deeply moisturizing sheet mask, as it diffuses the equivalent of half a bottle of hydrating serum in just 15 minutes; its “Anti-Thirst” effect ensures your skin is intensely hydrated for 24 hours. Thus, not only is your face deeply hydrated, but it has a healthy glow, is softer, more radiant and smoother!

Sheet masks are practical: quick and effective skin benefits

One major advantage of the sheet mask is its convenient size. Often individually wrapped, it is perfect for travel: you can enjoy a moment of intense skin hydration after a long, air-conditioned flight or a day out in the sun. The air-excluding environment of the skin mask ensures the serum ingredients deeply penetrate and nourish your skin.

The sheet mask is also a great solution when you don’t have much time on your hands. Extremely easy to unfold, apply and remove, this treatment keeps your skin in immaculate condition quickly and effectively. All you need to do is apply the mask for 15 minutes and let your skin absorb all the essential ingredients!

Clay masks, cream masks, warm oil masks—the list of facial masks available is endless! However, what sets sheet masks apart is that they require no preparation and use just the right amount of product for your skin. No need to rinse your face afterwards! After removing the mask, simply massage in any surplus skincare product left on your face so it soaks into your skin.

Sheet masks are efficient: combat signs of aging

Sheet masks are great when used as a complement to other beauty products in your skin care routine; there are several different types of sheet mask available to target most skin concerns. Dark spots, dullness, sagging skin, wrinkles—you name it! Sheet masks can target your problem areas and deeply hydrate your skin at the same time, leaving it clean, fresh and radiant.

Another positive point about the sheet mask is the fact that it is gentle on your skin. Whether your skin is normal, combination, dry, sensitive or dehydrated, you can find a sheet mask to suit you. You can even apply some sheet masks every evening! Use them at least once a week in summer and two or three evenings a week in winter to ensure that your skin is deeply and intensely hydrated all year round.

Bad lifestyle choices, the environment and harsh products can make your skin feel and look dry. With the help of an easy-to-use, convenient hydrating sheet mask, your skin can feel more hydrated, smoother and look more radiant. Sheet masks are the perfect complement to other products in your skin care routine, no matter what your skin type is. Why not give them a try?
