As beauty editors, our relationship with face masks rivals that of some of our oldest friends, as we often look to them to solve our skin-care woes. Whether it's a treatment that can stop our skin from getting stress pimples or a formula that diminishes redness in just minutes, face masks are a core part of our skin-care routine. If you've ever felt like a new person after a good masking session and you're looking to expand your portfolio of options, you're going to want to keep reading.
Ahead, we rounded up the best face masks that our editors swear by. These are the treatments we can count on to restore bounce to our dry skin, prep us for a full face of makeup, and brighten our complexions (along with our days). A great face mask really can solve at least half of our problems in life, and we need a few in our arsenal since they all do different things. Our personal favorites include clay masks that draw out impurities from the complexion while still being suitable for sensitive skin, deeply hydrating overnight creams, and formulas with AHAs and BHAs to make the skin glow.
Check out our picks for the best face masks, ahead.
