There are moments in my life where I feel like retreating to the solace of my apartment and shunning the outside world. Moments where I sit and vacillate and prioritize. Moments when getting out of bed everyday seems like a chore. For these moments and then more stressful periods, my skin freaks out and develops a personality of its own.

I get zits, increased oiliness, brown spots and fine lines. And they all appear slowly but surely overnight everynight. I needed to douse my skin in some intensive care and I went out and bought a box of this mask.

Containing a high concentration of SK-II's patented Pitera, this rich, intensive masks works deep to restore skin's balance, stimulate cell renewal while boosting hydration levels to give skin a glow.

I store my masks in the fridge and I pop one on my face weekly or whenever I am stressed or have to fly back and forth countries. My skin is restored, my spots lightened, my fine lines smoothed and I get this natural radiance that doesn't go unnoticed.

And it's not just for when you're stressed, I know many people and I am one of them - who use this after a day of sun and sea sports to get their skin back to tip-top condition. Those who even fall asleep with it, swear the next morning that their skin glows with health. I've never fall asleep with a mask on but I can tell you that this is certainly a keeper - for both good and bad days.

I am a huge fan of facial masks - they are perhaps one of the more relaxing times in the day when I can be still and chill for the next couple of minutes and attain better skin at the same time. Gotta love that.

I've been using this clay mask for 3 weeks now and I like how easy it is to rinse off and how it doesn't harden so you can still say thank you with ease when the postman delivers your package; for example. What I like best is the clean, soft slate my skin is given after every use while looking brighter and clearer.

Another point worth mentioning is how this doesn't over-dry your skin. With extracts of Aloe Vera, Pro-vitamin B5 and Vitamin E to nourish and hydrate - while promoting cell renewal. This gives you both anti-shine benefits and anti-aging benefits.

It works well too even if you're in a rush. Slap this on for 5 minutes and rinse off. Easy. Get this for US$17.50 (3.4oz/100ml) at Strawberrynet.   

Take your skin to rehab with this unique mask. Oxygenating cleansing agents gently give pores a good wash out; removing dirt, oil, makeup and other impurities without irritating your skin. A physical barrier is then formed to seal in hydration. Complex amino acids, Vitamin C and E and soy protein all work together to clarify, balance, soothe and purge your skin to get it ready for the real world again.

It's useful for those after 4am nights on the town where your pores are clogged with grim and dirt and general smog. You get a clean, fresh feel after washing off and unlike some masks, your skin doesn't feel tight or dried out. It just feels clean and light. I use this at the start of the week and I'd like to believe it helps set the tone for the week, somehow.

Just simply apply a thick layer in place of your cleanser and wait till dissipation begins. Then rinse off. Use this once or twice a week. Get this at Grooming Lounge for US$38(4oz/118ml).

This concoction of concentrated vitamins (A,C,E,F) will help pump your skin to optimal finesse. Vitamin A increases moisture levels and elasticity, Vitamins C & E provide anti-oxidation protection against free radicals. Pro-Vitamin B5 aids in the regeneration of new tissues. With ingredients like Beta Glucan and Algae extract to help soothe stressed and irritated skin.

I take this along on beach vacations and use this masque as a soothing balm for sun-burned skin or sun-exposed skin. It pumps up the skin and gives dehydrated skin a healthy glow which is ultimately the look you want to achieve after every vacation. Get this at Blush Beauty for US$34.87(2.5oz/74ml) or check this page for information on where to purchase Dermalogica products in Singapore. 

I've been using this Epoch mask for years now and it's pretty effective in drawing out impurities. Whenever I have a breakout, I apply this mask on the zits and leave it on overnight. Imperfections look smaller the next day. Even if you're zit free, use this weekly for fresh, soft, purified skin. Wash and tone your face then slap this mask on and relax for 15 to 20 minutes (try not to talk or laugh) and then wash off. Get it at Nu-Skin for $63.

This mask is made with French green clay and a selection of 8 herbs and flowers to tighten pores and clear your complexion. Unlike a lot of masks, you actually have to mix this one yourself. But it's easy, put a small amount of water and enough clay mixture to form a thin paste. Then apply it over a clean face and feel it working. I do see a difference in my pores after using it regularly. You can also mix green tea/grapefruit juice for oily skin, carrot juice for aging skin, tomato juice for sensitive skin. At US$8.19, not only will your pores thank you, your wallet will too! Get it at Drugstore.com.
