Best For: Clogged Pores
Clay Face Mask, £70 | Beauty Pie
Dubbed ‘a facial in a tube’, black clay masks are pore-refining heroes. This one from Beauty Pie is one of the best if your skin is feeling congested or oily. A formula of glycolic, salicylic and lactic acids, as well as kaolin clay, is designed to draw out impurities and leave the skin feeling fresher and cleaner. Plus, liquorice and eucalyptus boast antiseptic and soothing properties, which is great if your skin also feels reactive or inflamed. You’ll notice an instantly cooling effect on application – just wait until the mask dries, then wash it off after ten minutes for best results.

Brightening Tightening Mask, £9.50 | Versed
Kaolin clay and turmeric are great at restoring lacklustre skin. Mineral rich and exfoliating, a mask like this is ideal for buffing away dull skin cells. Apply it like you would any other mask, but when removing it, work it into the skin in circular motions to really benefit from the exfoliation. Your skin will feel smoother, brighter and more radiant, making it the perfect mask to use before an event.
