My skin has been dealing with just about everything—oiliness, clogged pores, hormonal breakouts, acne, and blackheads.

One thing that has made a big difference for me is sticking to a consistent face mask routine. Just like a daily skincare regimen, having the right masks in rotation helps me keep my skin balanced, clear, and glowing!

Caudalie Pore Minimizing Instant Detox Mask

This mask is part of my routine two to three times a week. It's gentle, easy to rinse off, and doesn't create a mess. I love how it leaves my combination skin looking more radiant and refined while helping to control oil and clear out pores.

Youth To The People Superclay Purify + Clear Mask

My ultimate favorite! I've repurchased this mask several times because it always delivers instant results. It smooths out texture, brightens dullness, and is the only product I've found that truly helps with stubborn hormonal breakouts. I like to use it as a "reset" once every week or two for an immediate boost.

The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Masque

This mask has mixed reviews, but I personally find it effective as a once-in-a-while treatment. It works best when my skin needs a deep reset—helping with dead skin buildup, rough texture, blackheads, and acne. It is quite strong, so I wouldn't recommend it for sensitive skin or frequent use. For me, once or twice a month is plenty to see results without overdoing it.

Face masks have become a key part of how I manage breakouts, excess oil, and uneven texture. From the gentle detox power of Caudalie to the breakout-fighting magic of Youth To The People and the heavy-duty reset from The Ordinary, these masks keep my skin in check. If you haven't tried incorporating face masks into your routine, it's worth finding a mix that suits your own skin goals.
