Taking care of our skin and face especially when we age is essential. There are a lot of products out there and it gets very confusing. They all cost a lot of money and some of them turn out not to be that great. From what I tested, I am putting together a review of the top 10 best face masks that I’ve been using. Let’s decide which one is better for your glowing skin!
There I made a photo of 10 of the face masks I am using. Most of them are Korean brands as I find them better than the rest. For me, it seems that Korean skincare really makes a difference. They cleared out my skin and minimized my pores, fine lines, and wrinkles. Let’s take them one by one to see how my skin benefits from each of them.
1. Mediheal Vita Essential Face Mask
Mediheal is one of my favorite face mask brands. I discovered it while I was in Japan, picking some random masks from a Don Quijote store in Tokyo, and after that, there was no way back. I searched for it everywhere.
This Vita Essential mask is infused with a cocktail of vitamins. I find it very good for fine lines and wrinkles as it gives vitality to your skin. If you use it regularly, combined with other masks, you can see the effects pretty clearly. I cycle this about once a week.
2. Mediheal Vita Toning Essence Mask
This Vita Toning mask is similar to the one before. It is vitaminizing your skin but at the same time, it is toning it. Somehow it is a little bit enhanced compared to the other one but it depends on your skin type if one is better than the other. I use both of them as I have oily skin and this helps with keeping the oil under control.
3. Mediheal Hyalu Moist Essence Mask
This mask is perfect for the moments when my skin needs hydration. I find it super moisturizing and I use it in some mornings when I feel my skin is dry. I apply it and then my makeup goes smoothly.
4. Mediheal Double Calming Water Face Mask
I use this mask whenever I feel that my skin is somehow irritated. Whenever I see some inflammation on the skin, I prioritize and use this mask. I find it calming and good for my skin. It is not something that I could not live without but it is a good addition to my routine.
5. Mediheal Tea Tree Nude Gel Face Mask
I have used a few types of Mediheal gel masks. I do not find them very good compared to other gel masks I used from other brands. They work on the same principle with the sheet masks. They dry super fast and I do not see better results compared to the normal face masks. Also, it is more expensive and I do not think it is worth it.
6. Orjena Green Tea Mask
I love everything with green tea. I tried this mask as I am obsessed with matcha and the benefits that it can bring. This is a total hit for my skin as it contains antioxidants and it is very moisturizing. For a little dose of vitamins and hydration, I use this mask from time to time.
7. Beauty of Joseon Centella Asiatica Calming Mask
I am literally obsessed with this mask. I bought it randomly while getting other products from Beauty of Joseon. Ever since I can’t live without it. Whenever my skin breaks out, I use this mask and it leaves my pores dry and my skin moisturized. Also, most of the time, my acne dries after it. If I feel the breakout is too big, I use acne spot cream after the mask.
8. La Cure Beaute Super Moisturizing Mask
I bought this mask because I found it on sale and I like to try different products. This is a French brand and usually, they are good with skincare so I said why not. I was not disappointed, the mask is super moisturizing and it doesn’t irritate my skin.
After using it, my skin feels tighter and plumpier. It is not something that I could not live with, but it is a good addition to my skincare routines from time to time.
9. Derma Laser 100 NMN+Niacinamide Mask
OMG, I do not have words to describe how good is this mask. I bought this from Japan. I have tried many Derma Laser face masks and they are all amazing. The bag contains 7 sheets and a lot of serum. Like literally after I consume the masks, I transfer the serum in a bottle and I use it every day.
NMN is a new discovery that aids with aging well and about niacinamide you should already know that it has a lot of benefits for the skin. I apply one of these masks once every few days and it leaves my skin super tight and my wrinkles disappear after 1 hour of keeping this on my face.
This is definitely a product I can’t live without anymore. I encourage you to try this brand, you will love it.
10. Biodance Bio Collagen Real Deep Face Mask
Shall I say anything about this mask? This is the viral collagen Korean mask, and it is regarded by many as being one of the best face masks out there.
It is perfect when you sleep with it which means you have to keep it on the face for around 7-8 hrs. It is like a white sheet of gel when you apply it but then in a few hours it dries and it becomes transparent.
When I wake up in the morning and peel it off, my skin looks amazing. It is very moisturized, it shines and my fine lines are not there anymore. At least on my skin, it has a wonderful effect.
I use it in my routine about once a week to maintain the glass skin effects. The night I want to put it on, I do not apply any other skincare products.
Where Do I Buy Them?
I usually buy face masks online. One good source is iHerb. I order supplements and cosmetics from here a lot as I find them cheaper than in other stores. Here are a few links to my favorite masks:

How Often to Use Them?
This is a tricky question as it depends on your skin and your needs. As I work from home most of the time, I have the luxury of having one hour, usually in the morning, when I am make-up-free and I am pampering myself with a face mask.
I use a different one every day and I cycle them depending on my needs. I try to use the Biodance once a week, the same goes for the Derma Laser one and also the Mediheal Vita as I am going into the second part of my thirties and my skin needs more care.
If you know you apply more skincare in general, you can use them once a few days but I am usually lazy in the evening and I don’t do much skincare and most of the time I don’t do it at all.
For me, the fact that they invented these face masks is a blessing. I can have it all in one without much hassle and time lost. I usually keep the masks while I am working on the laptop.
Key Takeaways
Face masks are a great addition to the skincare routine. You can choose the face mask depending on your needs and the results you want to see. They are easy to use and they offer the benefits of more products into one.
If you haven’t tried them, you don’t know what you are losing. Start adding them one by one to your routine, watch the results, and adjust if something doesn’t feel good for you.
