We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again. Masks are one of our fave tools in our beauty arsenal. Why? Because they’re just so versatile! Looking for luscious lips? Slather that pout in an overnight mask. Just can’t get enough of detoxifying? Your oily skin will thank you for a clay mask. See? Unbelievably versatile! And don’t forget about everyone’s OG fave… the humble sheet mask.
Hailed as the (kind of slippery) humble hydrator in the mask game, sheet masks are one of those oh-so-simple joys in life. And we’re here to shine a bright spotlight on all the incredible boosting and plumping benefits they can provide.
So, let check out what skin-loving benefits these sheet masks will give you…

Vanessa Megan Metamorphosis Shield Neck & Décolletage Coconut Membrane Mask
From $65 at Vanessa Megan
It’s exxy, we know. But if you’re ready for a little girl math, we can totally justify this purchase. Okay, so, it is a three pack, which makes it roughly $21 per mask. Okay that’s still a little bit steep, but add in the fact that per one pack it’s literally two masks (one for your neck and one for your face), its about 10 bucks. See, we knew we could justify it, especially given the natural, nourishing ingredients that help to reduce the appearance of ‘crepey’ skin.

Should I wash my face after a sheet mask?
We get it. You’ve just peeled off a gorgeously hydrating mask and you’re kind of sticky and maybe even a little slippery. So, if you really don’t love the feeling, go for it and wash your face. But for the best results after applying a face mask, you’ll want to massage in all the leftover serums and enjoy the benefits they wield.
How often should you use a face mask?
If face masks are your way to wind down then we’ve got some fantastic news. Unlike the drawing (and drying) effects of clay masks, sheet masks can be used two to three times a week! Yep, sit back and relax and get a whole lot of nourishment.
