Double On

Dry

The key to double-masking is to start with a heavier, creamier option that'll deeply penetrate your skin and provide your complexion with bountiful benefits before the second phase. For maximum hydration, begin with a cream mask to fight off flaky dryness. After, apply a gel option to plump and lock in moisture.

Oily

For a non-greasy canvas, start with a mattifying clay mask that'll intensely draw out impurities and minimize pores. End with a purifying version that'll thoroughly yet gently clean the skin.

Combination

To combat both oily and dry concerns, a detoxifying peel-off mask with red clay will unclog pores and control sebum and oil production while a hydrating gel option afterward will replenish the moisture it needs for a glowing yet matte complexion.

Dull

This refining mask with Canadian willow herb and jojoba beads gently exfoliates to slough off dead skin cells for a smoother texture. This allows the second energizing mask to deeply revitalize and brighten the skin for a youthful complexion.

Mature

To reverse wrinkles prep the skin with a luxurious soothing option to restore vitamins and release lines and signs of fatigue for a smooth, hydrated canvas. Finish off with powerful anti-aging ingredients by choosing a firming mask boasting peptide, pure ceramide-3 and white water lily extract to replenish elasticity and target sagging.

Sensitive

If your skin is prone to reactions and inflammation, heal it with a soothing mask of rich consistency, filled with calming components such as hibiscus tea, calendula and and aloe vera. Seal it with a nourishing cream mask infused with thermal spring water to reduce stress and restore moisture.
