Q: How often should we apply facial sheet masks for healthy-looking skin? – Joanne Teo You need to consider two things: your skin type and the ingredients used in the mask. Every skin type has different needs. If your skin is naturally dry or feels dehydrated, you can use a mask more frequently. The types of ingredients in the mask also make a difference. Masks with a heavy fragrance, and/ or acne-fighting, exfoliating or wrinkle plumping ingredients, can irritate skin if used more than once or twice a week. Hydrating masks with ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and aloe vera are suitable for everyday use. If you have sensitive skin, try Clinic care EGF Refresh/Tight Mask ($16.05 a sheet), a soothing and hydrating product that is said to reduce the appearance of fine lines and tighten skin contours.
