5 Face Masks You Need to Try

July 5, 2019

I LOVE face masks. It’s one of my favorite things to do, if not my favorite thing. Imagine: a cool face mask, your favorite movie on, and the sensational feeling of knowing that you are getting some great R&R. I can’t get enough of trying different masks, discovering which ones I like best, and seeing all the great beauty ingredients out there. From sheet masks to clay masks, I have rounded up, in order, the top 5 face masks you need to try!

1. Dermovia | Lace Your Face Masks

Have you ever tried a face mask that is made of LACE?? Yep, you read that right. It’s so chic. Dermovia’s Lace Your Face masks are reusable (up to two times total) and use compression technology to help hold the mask up and in place. In addition to all these winning facts, they are also super moisturized and come in a great variety of scents and benefits. Their selection has been my favorite face masks thus far!

2. Timeless Beauty Bar | Up In The Clouds Sheet Mask

This is the most hydrating sheet mask I have tried to date. I love how my skin felt afterwards and could really feel the nourishment and plump! Timeless Beauty Bar advertises this mask as the perfect solution for frequent flyers and jetsetters.

3. Generation Clay | Ultra Violet Brightening Purple Clay Mask

I love that this clay mask is a light purple color! Made with plums, it smells pretty nice too 🙂 This masks dries SUPER fast and is great for purifying, illuminating, refining, and brightening. I noticed a glow right after using it!

4. Maskeraide | Beauty Rest’ore Sheet Mask

I have been a long time fan of Maskeraide Beauty, especially when it comes to their sheet masks. My favorite sheet mask out of the bunch has to be the Beauty Rest’ore. It smells like lavender, contains aloe leaf extract & hyaluronic acid, and SO. MUCH. MOISTURE. I love it.

5. Maëlle Beauty | Thermal Action Rebalancing Mask

Last, but certainly not least, is my favorite charcoal clay mask from Maëlle Beauty! I love this mask because it warms as you put it on!! Talk about some nice R&R. Receive $10 off your first Maëlle Beauty purchase with my ambassador code, ‘Alyssa10‘!

Maskeraide Beauty Signature Items

April 22, 2018

Tell me, what’s better than pampering yourself on the weekend? I’ll wait.

I recently had the opportunity to test Maskeraide’s signature Hydrating Sheet Masks, Charcoal Bubble Sheet Mask, TELL ME POUT’ IT Hydrating Lip Masks and ALL EYES ON ME Hydrating Eye Gel Patches – and boy does my skin feel renewed (especially after Chicago’s crazy weather mood swings). Made with the purpose of providing a fun experience, Maskeraide’s products speak to both your skin and lifestyle. Wanting nothing more than a relaxing weekend, trying out the variety of products was the perfect lazy Sunday to get ready for the work week ahead.

The signature sheet masks were calm and cooling, the TELL ME POUT’ IT lip masks helped heal my chapped lips, and the Charcoal Bubble Sheet Mask was a unique experience, however out of all the products I tried I loved the ALL EYES ON ME Hydrating Eye Gel Patches the most. Compared to other spots on my face, under my eyes are a problem spot for me, especially when I feel stressed out. I usually break out in blemishes or feel my skin becoming puffy and dry. These gel patches have helped to tighten, hydrate and brighten my skin with its’ use of 100 Natural Herb Complex for intense moisture and anti-wrinkle benefits, Hyaluronic Acid for hydration and nutrition, and Ceramide 3 & Camellia Oil to help improve skin strength and elasticity. Free from parabens, free from artificial fragrances, and free from worry. All of Maskeraide’s products were great towards sensitive skin like mine and an asset to weekly beauty prep.

Maskeraide can be found at popular retailers worldwide including H&M, ASOS, and more. Shop all of their products online here!

Feeling Galactic with GLAMGLOW’s Limited Edition Glittermask

February 11, 2018

If you fantasize about the stars above, or just like glitter, you’ll love GLAMGLOW’s limited edition #GLITTERMASK GRAVITYMUD Firming Treatment! Applying the mud tightening mask with the included brush gave me major Last-Jedi, galactic vibes.

The best part of this mask is that it came with a brush to easily apply thick, even layers on your face. This gave a more luxurious experience when using the mask compared to others that you would usually apply with your mere finger. The firming mask took about 25 to harden, followed by an easy pull-off. No harm came from the glitter stars within the mixture and the end results were a firmer, toner surface. The most surprising thing about the product was that it had a tropical scent – I felt like I should have a Pina Colada in my hand!

The hype was well worth the wait. I can’t wait to make this #Glittermask part of my monthly beauty routine for improving elasticity and try other GLAMGLOW products in the future!
