Best face masks. I like to wake up early on Sunday mornings. There is very little traffic outside and last night’s revelers have left for home. Yaletown’s party atmosphere has settled down. This is me time and one thing I like to do is put on a relaxing face mask and take some time to care for my skin. I’ve collected a number of masks but they are all for different occasions and different skin care needs. I’ve already mentioned a number of my face masks but there are a few I haven’t yet talked about. So read on to find out about some of the best face masks.
A great basic one is Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Masque. In the summer when my skin gets a bit more oily, I use this one 2-3 times a week. It’s nice and thick and keeps my pores in check and any potential breakouts under control. Someone once asked me when I have the time to apply it. Well that’s an easy answer: I wake up, wash my face and apply it. Then I brush my teeth, the mask hardens and I simply wash it off in the shower. Done and done and I’m ready for my day.
When I want to feel a little bit more luxurious I turn to Fresh. I really love their line of products. The Rose Face Mask is pure luxury in a jar. With actual rose petals floating in a gel it’s very decadent. How do I describe the scent? Well, find a great big bouquet of roses, bury your nose in them, close your eyes and inhale deeply. There you have it, minus the sweetness. It’s really quite sublime. I don’t buy this one very often but when I do I try to make it last as long as possible. After I’ve applied it, I sit on my couch close my eyes and feel all the goodness seeping into my skin.
Recently I decided to splurge and bought the Black Tea Instant Perfecting Mask. I actually expected it to be a dark colour and to smell like a cup of tea but instead it seems that the lychee fruit is the stronger smelling ingredient. Fine by me. It has a lovely fresh summery scent. I feel at least 10 years younger when I put it on. This morning when I put it on the birds were singing and I could smell the ocean wafting through my windows. How’s that for a perfect Sunday morning?

Me time is very important. We need to re-charge. I’ve always wanted to try a facial mask but never felt entitled to one. You’re inspiring me to cast away that dumb thought.
Are you kidding me?! You need to go out and get one asap! Start with the Bliss one, you’ll love it!
Oh wow, that black tea one sounds heavenly. I just got a massage with the hubs for one of our dates and this would have been perfect to put on during the spa day!

Oh I’m glad I’m not the only one! I feel like it’s the best way to prepare myself for a new week.
I love to use a good face mask to keep my skin looking healthy! The black tea instant perfecting mask looks like something I would use. Where do you buy it, online?
By the way, my mom swears by cellex-c. She loves it.

Omg Kiehls & Fresh facial masks?! I’m so jelly right now lmao 😛
i need to find some samples and try them too.
I like to do my face masks in the bath in the evening. I used to do it every Sunday but got out of the habit when I had kids. Now that we’ll be moving into a new house with a big jacuzzi tub, it’s definitely going to be back to ME TIME on Sunday nights! I’m going to try out those Fresh masks. They sound lovely! I also really love the Korres Rose and Vitamin C Sleeping Facial. I use that on my face in the bath sometimes and let the heat and the steam help it to penetrate.
I adore that Kiehl’s mask! It’s my all time favorite! Lovely post!
Thank you! Yup, that mask has been a favourite for a long time.
