Sheet masks are having a moment in the beauty world right now and whilst they are all over Instagram and in all of the glossy magazines what exactly are they? Sheet masks are a Korean trend which makes you look temporarily terrifying and as if you are auditioning for the Phantom of the Opera. They are usually wet and packed full of serums and oils that are gradually absorbed by the skin and locked in by a mask giving an immediate pick me up for the skin! I have found the best sheet masks, including the best for hydrating, moisturising and rejuvenating so there is one for every skin type. And relax………
