Face mask recommendations

Can anyone recommend a good face mask please?

Am nearly 40, skin isn't bad but have the beginnings of fine lines, mostly around my eyes when I smile. Skin can be a bit dry and dull looking. Anything that will plump it up and make me look a bit fresher? Would prefer something under £40ish but if there's a miracle will pay anything!

I use the one for oily skin but the truffle masks and contourists are meant to be fab

It sounds like you're after moisturising - Origins overnight one is lovely - Drink Up Intensive it's called. I have it on right now in fact... Having previously used one of the 3 others in my bathroom (a deep cleansing one).

Hello beautyaddict

I wonder if you have any opinion on the 'Heath' skincare brand and also, if you have any thoughts on mandelic peels or glycolic/jessner peels.

Many thanks!

@hmmwhatatodo
Unfortunately, I can't give you my opinion on 'Heath' skincare, I haven't tried it.
I do like peels. I think they are great but you have to be careful not to overdo them. Same goes for lasers. If you suffer from pigmentation I find lasers more effective.

@MeIAm Is your skin dehydrated or dry? Have you tried SkinCeuticals brand? It's reasonably priced professional brand and I find it quite effective. Any thing with glycolic acid and then vitamin C does the trick. I would also advise getting Clarisonic (I love it!)

Dermalogica do a Multivitamin Recovery Mask which is DELICIOUS and a good all rounder. They also do a Hydrating mask which is good for plumping and hydrating

I second glamglow! I am completely obsessed. it smells awesome too, like being on holiday having cocktails.

I really love the beautie pie one. However its a subscription site so you have to weigh up whether you want to give it a go or not. I'm on the three months minimum subscription. www.beautypie.com/us/bpus/treatments--1/frutizyme-five-minute-facial-902--1

Esse Cream Mask- very moisturizing and smoothing.

Gah81 · 29/07/2017 07:12

GlamGlow is superb. Or Sisley have masks my mother swears by (super pricey though)

MeIAm · 29/07/2017 21:22

Thank you all for your replies!

I'm not sure whether my skin's dry/dehydrated Blush I have noticed lately that I need lots and lots of moisturiser though, no matter how much I put on it feels like my skin needs more.
