Pimp Your Sheet Mask – The Best Ingredients for Every Skin Concern

Originating in Korea, sheet masks are a global beauty phenomenon, and for good reason! Easy-to-use and rinse-free, they come pre-drenched in concentrated serums to target different skin concerns. The ‘sheet’ itself also does some of the work, serving as an occlusive barrier so the ingredients penetrate deeper for instant results.

We’re probably preaching to the converted, but at bb HQ we reckon popping on a lovely, cooling sheet mask and kicking back with Will & Grace as our fines lines, pigmentation and pimples get magicked away is a special kind of bliss!

Still searching for your complexion’s sheet mask match? We’ve got some good news. We’ve teamed up with the babes at Vitamasques – a UK range of top-notch K-Beauty inspired skincare prods – to school you on the best ingredients for each skin type. So kick back, relax, and soak up the goodness.

If you have… lacklustre, discoloured skin

You need a mask with acai! Acai berries are a natural superfood packed with a bunch of vitamins, including rejuvenating vitamin A and complexion-brightening vitamin C. Incredibly rich in antioxidants – just one purple-black berry contains 10 times more antioxidant power than a grape – acai berry extract helps defend against ageing free radicals.

Try the: Acai Berry Moisturising + Brightening Mask for bright, even and healthy skin.

If you have… congested skin or spots

You need good old-fashioned tea tree! Used as a natural remedy for thousands of years, tea tree is valued for its antimicrobial properties. Applied topically, it helps to clarify the skin, and reduce breakouts. 

Try the: Tea Tree Moisturising + Clarifying Mask for a clearer complexion.

If you have… sagging, ageing skin

You need powerful pomegranate! With a super-high vitamin C content, pomegranates are antioxidant powerhouses. Vitamin C is essential for the formation of precious collagen ­– which keeps your skin plump, firm and strong.

Try the: Pomegranate Moisturising + Firming + Lifting Mask for younger looking, bouncier skin.

If you have… dry skin

You need honey, but not any old honey will do. Manuka Honey has been prized throughout the centuries for its nourishing, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps to soothe and replenish moisture to dry skin, without causing breakouts. In fact, it even helps to improve acne! Those clever bees.

Try the: Manuka Honey Moisturising + Hydrating Mask for soothed, supple skin.

If you have… partied-out skin

If even your skin needs a detox, you need activated bamboo charcoal! This porous and totally safe charcoal dates back to the Ming Dynasty, where Chinese healers used it in medicine and to filter water. In a nutshell, it works like a boss to absorb toxins, impurities, and other harmful substances from your skin. Leaving your gorgeous mug detoxified, and with fewer breakouts.

Try: Bamboo Charcoal Detoxifying + Pore Tightening Mask for a purified and refined complexion.
