One of the best things you can do for your skin is to use face masks. Face masks are a fun and relaxing way to treat your skin to concentrated ingredients that nourish and soothe your skin. Masks come in a variety of formulas and treat a number of skin care concerns. The best part is, they always feel so decadent and satisfying that I think they should be a part of every girl’s skin care routine! If you’re new to face masks or you’re looking to try out some new ones, be sure and give this list a peek!
