Face Masks for Sensitive Skin Skin Concern: Sensitive skin is prone to breakouts, rashes and irritation due to a plethora of triggers, from stress and hormones to dirt, pollution, weather and skin-care ingredients. Even a blustery day can cause sensitive skin to flake or get welts. Dakar recommends treating reactive skin with the simplest formulas possible. Less is more for sensitive skin, which can react to avoid highly concentrated ingredients and mineral oils.
Mask Formula: Sensitive skin needs calming and detoxing ingredients to bring it back to its perked-up state. Dakar recommends green tea, which is high in antioxidants and calms redness. Villafranco suggests soothing lavender to refresh stressed skin, as well as avoiding harsh chemicals and alcohol, which could cause irritation.
How to Apply: Spot-treat any redness and congested skin with a soothing mask. Be sure not too leave it on your skin too long, as sensitive skin can be reactive to a mask drying for more than a few minutes.
Try: Erborian Perfect Morning BB Mask, $35, which is packed with Matcha green tea for a soothing, morning-skin refresh.
Fresh Rose Face Mask, $62, contains skin-soothing cucumber and aloe vera, plus rose petals for gentle toning.
