Now that winter is drawing to a close and spring is approaching, I’m talking about the best face masks you can buy that are natural and organic. The absolute best face masks are going to help you get your glow on, reinvigorating your skin to reveal its best self.
Advert: this post contains references to PR gifted products and products I’ve chosen with my credits as a LoveLula Accredited Blogger. My views are honest and my own.
You’ll find a great variety of face masks in this post – a silky pre-made mask, an exfoliating powder mask you mix yourself (fun, and very versatile), a peel mask, a sleeping mask, and one under £10 for the budget conscious.
If you’re baffled by all the different types of mask and are wondering which to try and what might suit you best, this post will help you.
But first things first.
Why use a face mask in your routine?
A face mask is an essential part of your routine – especially if you’re spot or blackhead prone. And if dull or tired skin is a problem, try a mask. They can work wonders!
- For healthy, clear and glowing skin. The best organic natural face masks contain natural muds or clays that draw excess oil and impurities from the skin, unplugging blackheads and pores. Some masks contain gentle natural acids that eat away at dead skin cells leaving you with a clearer complexion. They exfoliate and deep cleanse the skin, leading to a fresher visage in the long term.
- The healthiest possible choice. Choose organic and natural masks to ensure the cleanest ingredients. Even better if the face mask is certified.
- Chill time. It’s so nice to take your time to slowly savour the sensory experience of using a face mask. Mixing the mask and smoothing it on, the feeling on your skin, inhaling the fragrant aromas, and shutting the bathroom door to your little ones for just 10 minutes. Bliss!
The best face masks
Antipodes Halo Skin-Brightening Facial Mud Mask
Suited to all skin types, this silky smooth pre-made mask gives instant brightening and lift. Antipodes Halo contains peony to fix uneven skin tone, along with mineral rich volcanic mud to detox your skin. All delivered with a fragrance of vanilla, raspberry, and musk.
I’ll be using this mask twice a week to get my skin ready for spring – reducing pigmentation from last summer, and priming my skin to reveal its true glow. It also works well with other Antipodes skincare products, especially their probiotic night cream.

Odylique 3 in 1 Maca Mask
Perfect for sensitive skins, this deliciously minty mask comes as a fine powder that’s customisable with water, yogurt, or floral water. Because it comes water free the ingredients list is particularly clean, as no preservatives are needed.
As you gently massage this mask in, you’ll feel soft grains of oats gently polishing your skin. As the mask dries, green and white clays draw out impurities. Organic baobab fruit and maca supercharge this mask with vital amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.
This mask is great for those who want to save time exfoliating, as both steps are elegantly taken care of at the same time. The maca mask works well with Odylique’s anti-ageing skincare.

Mádara Active AHA Brightening Peel Mask
Don’t be put off by the name! This mask contains gentle fruit acids to target dull, tired skin that’s showing fine lines, wrinkles, or age spots – bringing back your glow. Brightening vitamin C and soothing elderflower add to the benefits of this mask.
Not one for sensitive skins, it’s typical to feel this one working. And it’ll really boost how your skin absorbs and benefits from other cosmetic products.

Yes, pomegranate is so good!
Great round up Helen! These are the masks I am yet to try, so needless to say my wishlist just got way longer 🙂
Thanks so much Renata! Glad you like 🙂
I really love using sleeping masks. I don’t use many clay masks as they tend to irritate my skin. Thanks for rounding these up! http://www.thedarlingdahlia.com
They’re lovely aren’t they! Sorry to hear clay masks irritate your skin. Thankfully there are lots of alternatives.
I have a hard time with face masks because my skin is so sensitive and I’m allergic to most perfumes. Which of these do you recommend for sensitive skin?
Sorry to hear that! Definitely Odylique Maca Mask – it’s suitable for sensitive skin and contains no synthetic fragrance, just a mild amount of mint and myrtle essential oils.
I’ve never really done face masks before but I keep hearing great things. I want to start trying some and these sound like a great place to start!
They certainly are! I think you’ll love masking, it’s so much fun and so good for your skin.
I love face masks! My skin always feels amazing afterwards.
That’s amazing, mine does too!
