Black Face Masks We Love

Black Face Masks We Love

Black Face Masks We Love

 

Black Face Masks May Be All The Rage These Days, But Not All Are Made Equal.

With reports of some black face masks leaving beauty lover’s skin red, raw and irritated we thought it was high time someone put together a list of alternative black face masks that can be safely used on the skin.

These are the black face masks we love.

 

Why Black Face Masks Are All The Rage

There’s no denying black face masks are having a moment in beauty circles, with plenty of vloggers uploading videos of themselves peeling charcoal masks off their face (seemingly in agony) before exclaiming how smooth their skin is after.

No pain, no gain right? Wrong.

Rather than softening skin, these masks are actually removing skin cells from the outer layer of skin, as well as any hair along with it. The skin only looks smooth after because the skin has effectively lost a layer. It’s a form of extremely aggressive exfoliation that’s super irritating to skin. Ouch.

Luckily, K-Beauty has plenty of gentler options that will leave your skin glowing – and not in the angry way – after you use them!

 

Black Face Masks To Try

These are some of our favourite black face masks that will leave your skin intact and glowing:

 

DEW CARE Mini Meow Trio Face Mask Set (9ml*3)

If glitter and cuteness is your jam then you'll love this mini mask trio that includes not only a black face mask but silver ones as well. 

The Mini Meow Trio includes:

  1. Firstly, Space Kitten for pore purification
  2. Secondly, Sugar Kitten for deep hydration
  3. Finally, Disco Kitten for brightening

Innisfree Jeju Volcanic Pore Clay Mask

This cult favourite K-Beauty product is one of the OG black face masks – made from hardened volcanic lava, which is famous for its deep cleansing and purifying properties.

Recommended for use 2-3 times a week on cleansed skin, this mask is one of Innisfree’s all-time best selling beauty products. It’s a 3-in-1 product that removes sebum, brightens skin & treats blemishes. It can be used three ways:

  • As a spot treatment for acne
  • To remove blackheads (instead of strip masks)
  • As a full face mask

Innisfree Jeju Clay Mask

Skinfood Black Sugar Wash Off Mask

Okay so it’s not technically black, but it’s close enough. Winner of Sure Magazine’s “No 1 Facial Scrub of the Year”, this wash-off face mask contains grainy black sugar granules that slough away excess oil and grime. The self-heating formula opens up your pores to allow the skin to fully absorb the minerals and vitamins it contains. 

 The fine black sugar grains in the mask work as a superb manual exfoliator and slowly dissolve as you massage them onto your face with warm water. Thanks to its hydrating shea butter and lanolin content, skin is left feeling hydrated and smooth.
