Masks and Peels, We Sisters Pick for Different Skin Days
13
items Three of us have pretty different skin, so a mask that works beautifully for one of us can be a complete miss for another. I have oily, dehydrated skin with a tendency toward blackheads and whiteheads. One of my sisters has sensitive, acne prone skin...

💧 When My Skin Needs Hydration
For those days when my skin looks oily but somehow still feels thirsty. These are the masks I'd look at when I want plumper, softer skin rather than more exfoliation.
This one gave me really hydrated, bouncy skin and did not initially cause congestion. With more use though, I started feeling like it was clogging my pores and noticed small pimples. My sensitive, acne prone sister had the opposite experience at firs...
Biodance Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask
This is one of the easier choices for my oily, dehydrated skin. It leaves my face soft and hydrated and feels super moisturizing without feeling like too much. My sensitive, acne prone sister also liked it because it did not irritate her skin. She fo...
COSRX Advanced Snail Mucin Power Sheet Mask
This is my dry skinned sister's favorite from the list. She calls it a winter staple and says it is great for dry skin in dry climates. Her skin feels extremely soft, hydrated and moisturized afterward. My sensitive, acne prone sister also had a good...
belif Aqua Bomb Hydrating Sleeping Mask
This is another one my dry skinned sister really likes. She says it makes a noticeable difference, gives her amazing softness in the morning and leaves her face soft and hydrated without feeling extremely oily. But even she found it was not enough on...
Origins Drink Up Intensive Overnight Hydrating Mask
🧖 When My Pores Need a Reset
These are for the other side of my skin, excess oil, clogged pores and that general feeling that I need to give my face a proper clean. I wouldn't necessarily use these when my skin is already feeling dry.
This is probably the most naturally suited to my oily, dehydrated skin when my pores are acting up. It dries out whiteheads, reduces redness and leaves my skin feeling genuinely clean and healthy. I also noticed my blackheads looking significantly be...
The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque
I really liked this when it worked properly. It cleaned out my pores, made them feel tighter and left my skin looking clean, clear and glowing. That “holy smokes, my face feels extra clean” feeling is exactly why I would reach for it. But I had a dis...
innisfree Volcanic Swirl Exfoliating Pore Mask
This is one I picked specifically with my combination and oily skin and visible pores in mind. I wanted something to clear out extra sebum, and the first time I used it I was genuinely impressed. My pores looked smoother, my T zone was less oily and ...
Mario Badescu Pore Minimizer Kaolin Clay Powder Mask
For my oily, acne prone skin, this was fine. It made my skin feel super smooth and I could see a difference after one use. I would call it awesome for that immediate clean, smooth feeling. But despite liking the result, I would not purchase the full ...
Benefit The POREfessional Deep Retreat Clay Mask
✨ The Glow / Overnight Ones
These are the ones I find most tempting when I want to wake up looking a little more rested and glowy. Some of the reviews are impressive, although the experiences are definitely not universal.
This one is very much my kind of overnight mask. With my combination and acne prone skin, I became obsessed. I can sleep in it overnight and my skin does not feel irritated or slimy when I wake up. It has become a staple in my routine. My sensitive, ...
PEACH & LILY Glass Skin Ginseng Collagen Mask
This one has given me some really good results with my oily, acne prone skin. After a few consecutive nights, I had not broken out, my skin looked clearer and it felt super hydrating. It even seemed to calm my breakouts and help them heal faster, wit...
medicube Collagen Night Wrapping Mask
⚡ Quick Fixes & Something Different
Not every skincare day calls for a 20-minute sheet mask. I also wanted a couple of easier options for when I want exfoliation or a quick brightening boost without making an entire evening out of it.
This is probably the easiest one for us to agree on. None of us loved it. I got a breakout, my sensitive, acne prone sister experienced irritation and a rash, and my dry skinned sister mainly disliked the strong scent. Our take: This one did not work...
JiYu Toning & Brightening Pads
I liked this one for my hormonal adult acne. My skin looked brighter, clearer and healthier, and it did not make me break out. My dry skinned sister likes it especially for dry, tired or stressed out skin days. She finds it very hydrating and refresh...
Rael Vitamin C Facial Sheet Mask
This is the actual Dead Sea mud I brought back from Jordan, collected straight from the tub at the Dead Sea. No fancy packaging or special formula, just the mud itself. And for my oily skin, it really works. I use it on lazy self care Saturdays when ...
