But better than a mask with just one mineral clay is one formulated with three, so reach for L’Oréal Paris’ Pure-Clay Masks—there’s three in total—enriched with a combination of kaolinite, montmorillonite, and ghassoul clays. For oily and congested skin, try the Mattifying Treatment Mask. To help illuminate dull and tired skin, go with the Brightening Treatment Mask. Lastly, for rough-feeling, clogged skin turn to the Refining Treatment Mask.RIESLINGPair with: Lancôme Hydra-Intense MasqueThere’s nothing like a chilled glass of white wine to go with a cooling and intensely hydrating gel face mask. To play up the “cool and refreshing” factor, pop this mask into the fridge for a few minutes prior to use. We should also mention that our sweet tooth led us to Riesling for this pairing, but any light-bodied white variety would work here.SHERRYPair with: Kiehl's Ultra Facial Overnight Hydrating MasqueDessert wines—Port, Sherry, Madeira, and more—are what many choose to cap off their night. Similarly, overnight masks are used as a last step in a skin care routine before shut-eye. Finish your night sipping on your favorite dessert wine while applying an overnight mask. This particular formula by Kiehl’s replenishes skin’s water reserves for long-lasting hydration and healthy-looking skin.RICE WINEPair with: The Body Shop Chinese Ginseng and Rice Clarifying Polishing MaskTake a swig of your favorite rice wine—hint: Cheongju is a delicious South Korean blend—while donning this creamy skin-revitalizing mask enriched with ginseng and rice extract from China, and Community Trade Sesame Seed Oil from Nicaragua.
