So here we are: stuck inside, wondering why our skin looks so lacklustre and thinking about how we can take up some time doing something about it. The answer? Apply a face mask.
It’s a step in your routine that is usually deemed a luxury, but in these trying times, it is practically a necessity, least of all because it gives us something to do in the strange limbo that floats between finishing work and having dinner.
There are many to choose from depending on your budget and skin concerns. The good thing is that with face masks, more expensive doesn’t always necessarily mean the best.
You can, for example, spend upwards of £80 on a mask that will last just 10 applications. Nonesuch products have been included in this list, which features a range of facial-worthy skin saviours at varying price points.
Those at the higher end are worth it thanks to their high-quality ingredients and longevity, while those at the lower end are truly excellent value for money. Give your skin the treat it deserves by investing in a face mask to enjoy during these testing times.
You can trust our independent reviews. We may earn commission from some of the retailers, but we never allow this to influence selections. This revenue helps us to fund journalism across The Independent.
Overall, Charlotte Tilbury’s clay mask has to take the top spot. While this product is on the more expensive side of the scale, it definitely has the biggest impact in terms of giving your skin an instant glow after application. So for those needing a quick pick-me-up during lockdown, it couldn’t be more perfect.
