The Facial Masks You Need To Help Treat Pesky Pimples And Breakouts

by MOH SHUYING  /   September 6, 2017

Whether you’re 13 or 30 years old, the sad fact is (unless you’ve been genetically blessed and barely come into contact with pollution of any kind) pimples are a part of life. Acne can be caused by a number of things: stress hormones, the environment and even the products you’re using are just a few factors that can affect your complexion. And while dirt and impurities do play a big part in causing breakouts, washing your face excessively will dry out and irritate your complexion. Our solution, adding a deep cleansing mask twice a week that helps to remove impurities and treat pimples. Here, our list of the best ones to get.

This innovative gel-cream mask helps clear blemishes, dissolve impurities and minimise the appearance of pores without over-drying skin. Its skin-soothing formula gently exfoliates dead skin cells while Colloidal Sulfur works to unclog pores and reduce acne blemishes.

Great for all skin types, this multitasking treatment can be used three ways—as a daily deep cleanser, a pore-purifying mask, and a spot treatment to minimise small imperfections.
