Face masks can be used on all skin types and some ingredients used in making facemasks can be found around the home.

People with dry skin can also benefit from the use of face masks especially when ingredients such as glycerin, honey or oils are used in making the mask.

Oily or acne prone skin types can benefit from the regular use of mud or clay mask which can help balance the skin. If you suffer with sensitive skin using a green tea mask or ginseng are great soothers.
