- The Cutest Headbands to Wear While Washing Your Face
Let’s be real, a hair tie alone isn’t always enough to hold your hair back while washing your face. To get the job done, a headband can also be helpful. Now I’m not talking about any old headband, I’m talking about a plush spa headband. Typically made from super absorbent materials like microfiber or terry cloth, these thick bands ensure your hairline doesn’t get completely soaked and effectively keep hair out of your face, not to mention they elevate your entire cleansing routine. To help you navigate through the hundreds of options available, we rounded up our five favorite face wash headbands that are just as adorable as they are functional.
Kitsch Spa Headband
This multifunctional headband doubles as a hair tie. The built-in ponytail holder prevents creases caused by hair elastics, while the velcro design firmly and comfortably secures the headband to your head. It’s great for face washing, makeup application and around-the-house activities. Try it with the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Face Wash Cleanser if you have oily skin

HOPESHINE Spa Facial Headbands
Why choose one color when you can have three? This three-pack of affordable, plush headbands is super cute and practical. The extra wide band helps to keep hair out of your face and can be tossed in the washer when needed to be refreshed. Wear this headband while using the CeraVe Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Cleanser if your face is feeling dry.

I Dew Care Black Cat Headband
Have you ever seen a more purr-fect headband? This ultra-soft accessory keeps hair tucked away from your face and features adorable cat ears so you can make your face wash routine more fun and Instagrammable. Try it with the L'Oréal Paris Skincare Revitalift Bright Reveal Facial Cleanser to exfoliate while you cleanse.

Slip Pink Knot Headband
For a trendy option, we love this silk headband from Slip. Made with pure silk, This durable headband holds hair back without tugging so you can wear it for hours without any strain. Wear while cleansing with the Garnier SkinActive Green Labs Hyalu-Melon Smoothing Milky Washable Cleanser or as an accessory with your favorite outfit.

Bonne Nuit Spa Turban
Recreate the feeling of your favorite spa with this headband. Made with terry honeycomb fabric to prevent irritation and a velcro close to ensure a comfortable fit, this is the ultimate accessory to wear when applying an at-home face mask like the Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Cleansing Mask. Choose between baby blue, white or a blush color, or buy the set for all three.
