The Best Face Mask Combination

The Best Face Mask Combination


A few weeks ago I was watching an Essie Button video where she talked a little bit about using two face masks together; a deep cleanse one to remove impurities and then a moisturising one to replenish the skin afterwards. Whenever I used a face mask I always looked at my skin and decided which type of face mask I needed more. But clay face masks can be a little drying and moisturising face masks can feel like they are just clogging up your pores. 

So I tried this idea out by first doing my normal face routine, then using the Manuka Honey radiance face mask followed by the Vitamin E moisture face mask. Afterwards I was pretty impressed by the results and I think that there are very few moments where my skin has felt that clean and fresh. And the moisture face mask had prevented my skin from feeling dry after the clay mask. 


However the really improvement could be seen the morning after. When I woke up my skin just looked so much better and smoother. And the few under the skin spots that I could feel coming though before had all significantly gone down or gone altogether! I was just so impressed by what this has done to my skin. Recently I have been trying a few different skin product and thinking a bit more about what I eat and my skin is really starting to improve. And I think this combination of masks is definitely contributing to the improvement. 


I have also done detailed reviews of both of these mask before so you can have a read of those by clicking on the links below.

  1. I remember her talking about it, but I thought it would be time consuming... Clay masks are more suitable for my blemished skin, but it can get a little dry in autmun, so I'll actually use this trick! :)

    1. I do 10 minutes for each face mask so it isn't too bad. And you really should try it. I can't recommend it enough! :) xx

  2. Ooh I love this idea, I have used two face masks in a row before but only because my skin was bad at the time. Clay masks can be really drying so using a moisturising mask after is such a good idea, thanks!
