    Flawless Skin with Face Masks

    Monday, April 28, 2008, 11:56 AM CST [General]

    Whether you're getting ready for party-mode on the weekend or just want to look your best during the week, a face mask is a great way to exfoliate your skin and enjoy an at-home facial! Face masks can remove dirt, makeup and oily buildup while buffing away dead skin cells. They are also the perfect way to freshen up a dull complexion; just using a quality mask once per week is all you need to start seeing results and you can look forward to fresh, vibrant skin that looks healthy and feels great! Since we wanted to get our skin in tip-top shape for spring season, these are a few masks that caught our eye on a recent beauty roundup:

    Cellfood Oxygen Skin Care Gel

    The Cellfood Oxygen Skin Care Gel is a super-rich mask full of nutrients and is a unique blend of ingredients with its gel consistency. It's designed to restore lost moisture, reduce blemishes, and even shrink large pores. Just one treatment will leave your skin looking softer, smoother and more resilient. Use this one before bedtime (after a light cleanser) so your skin can soak up all the nutrients and emollients and you wake up refreshed and revitalized.

    Kiss My Face Daily Scrub

    When you're on a tight budget but still want to look like you've walked out of a spa, the Kiss My Face Daily Scrub is a great buy under $10! The scrub actually works like a firming mask to boost circulation, shrink pores and tighten and tone your skin. It's a simple way to de-stress after a rough week and can clean out those pores with just one application. Make sure you use a rich cleanser and moisturizer with the treatment for maximum benefits.

    Dermalogica Skin Refining Masque

    If you're having trouble with oversized pores on the nose, chin, and sides of the face, this deep cleansing mask from Dermologica will help absorb excess oil and can even reduce breakouts during the week. The cleanser helps refine the skin and clear out those pores in just one step. It's a rich and powerful mask that will quickly become your weekly indulgence!
