Face masks are a girls best friend. They can be relaxing and simply a fun to do. A wide variety of mask types give a girl more options than potential dating prospects on Hinge. We are not kidding. There is a mask for every day of the week. Breakout? Anti-aging? Hydrating? Firming? Brightening? Clay? Sheet? Gel? Peel? Charcoal? Overnight? DIY? Ok maybe a mask for every day of the month!
Monday
Start the week off with a Manuka honey mask. The antibacterial properties of Manuka honey can naturally kill acne causing bacteria. Therefore fighting zits before they even rear their ugly heads. Score! The anti-inflammatory and healing properties can soothe skin and reduce redness. The enzymes in the honey provide a gentle exfoliation along with moisturizing properties. Leave on for 20 minutes or longer.

Thank you 111 Skin ROSE GOLD BRIGHTENING FACIAL TREATMENT MASK for making this heavenly sheet mask. We like to keep them in the fridge before use. This mask instantly and dramatically power-up your skin with a radiant glow. As it tightens and firms skin, plumping fine lines and wrinkles whilst soothing inflammation and irritation and imparting a natural looking radiance. So basically it does everything.
Wednesday
The middle of the week and already seeing a breakout or some irritation? No worries Eminence Organic Skin Care Eight Greens Phyto Masque - Hot is next level. This insane mask will heat up the skin to stimulate and revitalize dull, mature skin to leave it feeling renewed and looking radiant. Organic extracts of yucca, hops, stonecrop diminish breakouts, fine lines, wrinkles and inflammation. The paprika extract stimulates blood flow to detoxify. So yeah it does it all! Chill out for 20 and relax while the mask does all the work. It's hump day. You deserve it.
Thursday
Didn't meet your goal of drinking more water this week? No biggie. Laneige water sleeping mask will hydrate you literally overnight. The moisture-recharging gel mask quickly absorbs while you sleep to deeply hydrate skin. Wake up looking as refreshed as a girl who got a full night of sleep.
Friday
Seems only natural to use Summer Friday's jet lag mask on a Friday. The dewy and hydrating mask soothes thirsty, stressed-out skin. The mask contains a nourishing mix of vitamins, ceramides, antioxidants. Skin looks instantly renewed, radiant, and ready for a night out or a night in.
Saturday
Lets not forget about the girls! The Calm Your Tits by Anese is a nourishing boob mask with kaolin clay to remove boob sweat, oil and debris. The marine collagen leaves boobs feeling firm and glowing. Green tea protects boobs and chest from sun damage, prevents signs of aging and the organic honey nourishes and moisturizes skin and nipples. This is the action your boobs have been begging you for.
Sunday
It is still the weekend and the skin on your body needs love too. True Botanicals Resurfacing Body Mask will leave skin radiating for the week ahead. Dead skin cells build up, leaving skin dull, dry, and scaly. The lactic acid in the mask dissolves the oil complex holding dead skin cells together. Skin is renewed and better able to absorb moisture and nutrients. Massage into dry skin, leaving on for up until 15 minutes or until dry and wash off in a relaxing Sunday shower.

More importantly what I had to learn in an industry full of rejection was how to embrace myself with or without the approval of any externals.
