Overnight Mask
Most overnight masks are thick night creams that create a barrier over the skin as you sleep. These masks are a great option if you struggle with dry skin as they counter transepidermal water loss. However, because these masks are on your face for a prolonged time, dermatologists and beauty experts advise against using one that contains drying ingredients, as they may be irritating if used overnight. Instead, look for masks that contain gentle ingredients that hydrate and support the skin’s barrier throughout the night.
