My relationship with MasqueBar has been a little down and up, as I loved their launch products, however I tried their Charcoal Peel Off Mask and was not an admirer. I kept an open mind when trying the recently launched MasqueBar Charcoal Sheet Masks and I’m glad I did, as they’re rather fab.
I’m not a huge fan of sheet masks generally – I don’t enjoy the wet, cold, slimy application process – but I persevere as I find them to be an effective at targeting specific issues, particularly when it comes to hydrating and soothing tricky skin. The MasqueBar Charcoal Sheet Mask is an interesting one as it does a little bit of everything, promising to purifiy, nourish, detox and hydrate, all in one application. Surprisingly, I actually think it delivers on these promises, and more, as my skin not just felt soothed and hydrated, I also found some minor, superficial breakouts had virtually disappeared by the next morning after use, yet skin still felt as if it had received a classical, typical hydrating sheet mask treatment. Consequently, this is the sort of product I think everyone should have in their kit, as most of us have those off days where skin just will not behave and cannot be treated – could it be dry? Inflamed? Spotty? Dehydrated? Try the MasqueBar Charcoal Sheet Mask and it’ll reset everything in less than an hour. Speaking of time, the recommendations on the box is 15-20 minutes, but it’s a light product that can definitely stay on for extended – I went for around Forty-five minutes, then followed with a simple moisturiser (no rinsing beforehand) and that i was mighty impressed using the results. Finally, it’s well-crafted so that you can move it around to fit properly, which is great in case your face is like mine along with a bit on the long side. A pack of three costs lb9.99 – so lb3.33 per mask is a very good price for such a great treatment. Find it at ASOS here – – or in Boots stores.
