Looking for the best K-Beauty Wash Off Masks in Australia? You've come to the right place! Whether you're looking for hydration, clearer skin, brightening or more, we're going to have a look at what makes wash off masks such a great part of any skincare routine.
What are Wash Off Masks?
These masks are a category of facial masks in skincare. These masks are applied and then washed off with water after a set amount of time (from a few minutes to overnight). Using these masks regularly can help improve the appearance of your skin through cleansing, exfoliation and hydration.
While we haven't found a mask that does all these things in one, each type of facial mask is made for their own specific benefits. For example, one of the most popular ingredients in wash off masks is clay (you may remember when pink clay masks trending a few years back). Clay is a great ingredient for drawing out impurities from the skin, unclogging pores and helps to control excess oil and shine.
How to Use Wash Off Masks?
While specific details will vary based on the product, this is how wash off masks are typically used:
- Firstly, use your favourite cleanser to cleanse your face
- Secondly, apply the mask to the face in a thin layer
- Thirdly, leave the mask on for the time recommended on the product's instructions (for most usually 10-15 minutes). For clay masks, we have some extra tips and tricks here.
- Finally, rinse off the mask with lukewarm water.
With regular use (2-3x per week), you'll find your skin feeling more refreshed, rejuvenated and ready for the rest of your skincare routine!
