The Best Sheet Masks For Every Skin Need
As a beauty lover I can’t help but get excited when I discover an amazing product that helps me look and feel my best. And of course I love sharing those products with you, which is why I’m super stoked to be teaming up with Patchology (my favorite skincare brand) today to talk about my current skincare routine obsession – sheet masks.
From helping your skin look amazing and giving your skin a re-boost after a rough night, sheet masks are the absolute perfect, easy solution to addressing numerous skincare concerns. But with so many choices, it can be a bit overwhelming to know which sheet mask is the perfect mask for you, which I why I’ve created today’s post to help make it easier.
In today’s post, I’m sharing the best sheet masks for every skincare need, tips on how to use each of them, and ways to get the most benefit from using them. I’m also sharing my absolute favorite products of each, all of which are inexpensive and super easy to use!
Easy Skincare Solutions
If you read my post on 6 Must-Have Beauty Products for Self Care and Pampering, you’ll know that I’m a huge fan of Patchology and their products simply because they focus on providing great skincare solutions for busy women like myself. From awesome sheet masks to hydrating eye and lip gels, Patchology has a little something for everyone. Best of all, most products work their magic in just 5 minutes!
I don’t know about you all but I certainly don’t have the time to do an hour facial every week, which is why Patchology sheet masks and gels are so great. Their motto is “Beauty at the Speed of You” and all of their products provide quick fixes that easily fit in every woman’s schedule.
In case you’ve never tried anything from Patchology, you can check out a listing of their product line over here and easily shop by skincare concern. If you find something you love, be sure and use my coupon code PATCHLOVE1 for 20% off all orders!
What is a Sheet Mask?
If you’re not super familiar with sheet masks, they are sheet fabrics designed to fit on your face and have been soaked in a concentrated serum full of beneficial nutrients for your skin.
Sheet masks actually first originated in South Korea, but have quickly gained popularity in the U.S. over the past few years. They’re the perfect quick solution on days where you need a skincare pick-me-up and on days where you want your skin to look its absolute best.
Sheet Mask Benefits
Fast, Noticeable Results
Unlike regular skin serums where multiple applications are needed to see results, sheet masks are hyper-concentrated and in just one use can provide the same nourishing benefits of getting a full facial. The sheet mask itself helps lock in all the nutrients from the serum and you’re left with noticeably softer, moisturized skin.
Needless to say, the fact that I can get the benefit of a full facial after one use, is just one of the many reasons I love using sheet masks. (This illuminating one is my absolute favorite!)
Less Mess
Unlike regular skincare masks which have to be applied by hand and can sometimes get super messy, sheet masks come in individual packets for easy, mess-free application.
With the exception of the SmartMud ™ No Mess Mud Masque, which has to be washed off after using, all of Patchology sheet masks have zero mess involved. Once you’ve worn them, you can just rub in all the nutrients anywhere on your skin that needs some extra nourishing.
Quick + Easy to Use
Last but certainly not least, sheet masks are great because you don’t have to wear them for an hour a day to see the benefits. In fact, all the Patchology sheet masks only have to be worn for 5 minutes! (Check out their full product line over here)
For busy moms and women on the go, sheet masks are a serious godsend because you can use them whenever it fits your schedule best. And I don’t know of anyone out there who wouldn’t spare an extra 5 minutes from their day to pamper their skin. 😉
The Best Sheet Masks For Every Skin Need
Ready to give sheet masks a try? I’m including all the best sheet masks for every skin need below that will help your skin look and feel amazing. I’m also including the specific ingredients and benefits of using each sheet mask.
For Moisturizing Dry Skin
Flashmasque® Hydrate 5-Minute Sheet Masks
If you struggle with dry skin, then this mask was made for you! Not only does this mask hydrate the skin, but it also helps soften and smooth the entire look of your skin to help give you a beautiful dewy finish.
I’ve been loving using the Hydrate Sheet Mask lately to help my skin recover from the rough winter months.
For Brightening the Skin
Flashmasque® Illuminate 5-Minute Sheet Masks
Skin looking a bit dull? Brighten it up with this amazing mask made with licorice extract, vitamin C, and grapefruit seed extract.
The Illuminate Sheet Mask is one of my personal favorites from Patchology as it gives my skin such a beautiful glow. I always receive tons of compliments on my skin every time I use it, and I’m so obsessed!
For Minimizing Pores + Removing Impurities
SmartMud ™ No Mess Mud Masque- Detox Sheet Mask
Clogged pores? This mask is amazing at removing toxins from the skin and minimizing pores for a clearer complexion. The secret ingredient? Mineral-rich volcanic ash that helps remove pore clogging debris which can cause breakouts.
I can’t get enough of the No Mess Detox Sheet Mask whenever I feel a breakout coming on and it’s so fun to get your mud on!
For Calming Redness + Irritation
Milk Peel 5-Minute Flashmasque® Sheet Masks
This mask is amazing for eliminating redness, soothing the skin, and ridding the skin of dirt and oil. I personally recommend the Milk Peel Mask for sheet mask newbies as it is made specifically for sensitive skin types. Plus once you try it, you won’t be able to live without it! 😉
For Fine Lines + Wrinkles
Flashmasque® Firm 5-Minute Sheet Masks for Face and Neck
With powerful peptides, this amazing mask helps tighten and firm both the face and the neck area. The Firm Sheet Mask is definitely a great option for those who are looking to soften the appearance of fine lines and will help your skin appear more youthful!
For Tired Eyes
Flashpatch® Rejuvenating Eye Gels or Flashpatch® Restoring Night Eye Gels
Rough night? Both of these eye gels are the perfect relief when you have tired, puffy eyes and they feel so good on the skin!
I’m a huge fan and use them constantly on days where I didn’t get enough sleep or if my under eye area is feeling a little dry. Use the Rejuvenating Eye Gels during the day and Restoring Eye Gels at night for best results!
Best Practices When Using Sheet Masks
Apply to a Clean Face
My number one tip when using a sheet mask is to make sure you’re applying it to a clean, makeup-free face. Prior to wearing a sheet mask, I always like to wash my face thoroughly, and I personally like to use toner pads to remove any excess oil. Applying your sheet mask to clean skin will ensure no dirt or oil gets trapped in the skin and lets your face absorb all of the amazing benefits of the sheet mask.
Carefully Apply Sheet Mask
Second, make sure you are being careful when you apply your sheet mask to avoid it ripping. You also want to take your time when placing it on the appropriate areas of the face to ensure your skin absorbs the mask properly. Remember, the tighter the sheet mask fits on the skin, the better absorption, and the better your skin will look and feel afterwards.
Don’t Leave Your Mask On Too Long
A lot of people assume leaving a sheet mask on for longer than the recommended time is a good thing and that it will help your skin more, but it can actually cause reverse effects. Depending on the type of mask, leaving it on for too long can cause your skin to dry out or may cause sensitivity. Instead, stick to the recommended time limit for best results.
Use Excess Product
When using your sheet mask, you may notice some excess product in the packaging or leftover on your face after removing it. Don’t toss it or wipe it away- use it! After removing your sheet mask, rub in any excess product on other parts of your face that could benefit from the product. I also recommend to use any excess product in the packaging on other delicate skin areas that are often overlooked, such as your neck and chest area.
Develop a Schedule + Be Consistent
Last but not least in order to get great results from using sheet masks, it’s important to develop a schedule and be consistent with it. Whether you choose to use a sheet mask weekly, bi-weekly, or even daily try not to miss a day. I personally love using sheet masks weekly and before any special occasions where I want my skin to look its absolute best.

They work so well! I definitely recommend them! 🙂
I love sheet masks and am always looking for recommendations! Can’t wait to try some of these!
I think you’ll love them Laura!
Great post!! I’ve never actually tried a sheet mask, so I’m definitely saving this for later. I had a facial this week and she said that I need to watch how much I’m scrubbing or exfoliating right now and need to focus on hydration. I think I just need to – like you said – be consistent and take care of my skin regularly. 😉
Thank-you! Sounds like you’d love the hydrating and illuminating masks then! Those are perfect on days I need some extra H20 on my skin. 🙂
These look lovely, the packaging is on point! Do you know if these products are non toxic?
Thank-you! I do know they use natural ingredients and do not test on animals. 🙂
I want to try the detox one!!
I really like it! It’s nice to use after your skin has broken out.
I agree sheet masks are so much easier, but I’m still drawn to bottled masks also haha.
I think it’s all about preference. I personally like the no-mess factor of sheet masks, but sometimes a bottled mask is nice for certain skin concerns. 🙂
Thanks so much for the post.Really thank you! Great.
Glad you enjoyed it, Trema!
I haven’t used the sheet masks yet, but they look SO cool! I will definitely have to check this brand out!
I think you’d love them Helen! Patchology is my favorite skincare brand- especially for sheet masks. 🙂
I love, love, love sheet masks! Somehow I’ve never tried any of these out, but they sound SO good. I’ll have to check ’em out!
Molly // Miss Molly Moon
Me too, Molly! I definitely recommend you try some of these out- they’re SO good!
I’ve YET to try Patchology…I can’t believe I haven’t tested anything from them yet! I always preferred clay etc masks to sheets, but these look too good to pass up!
You definitely should try the SmartMud No Mess Mud Masque from them! Sounds like something you’d love since you like clay type masks. 🙂
I have tried these from Patchology and I do love them. They’re so good even though they’re always too big on my face lol.
Glad to hear you’re a fan, Jasmine! Haha my husband always makes fun of me when I wear them.
I was immediately sold on the minimal clean up of these masks, and need to try that milk peel <3
Green Fashionista
It’s awesome! Great for calming redness and giving your skin a refresher. 🙂
I have never done a sheet mask but it sounds really easy and I love that it comes with what you need! Thank you for sharing! Sierra~Beautifully Candid
You would love them- they are so calming and hydrating to the skin and there’s so many options for every skin concern. The Patchology ones only take 5 minutes too, so you can’t beat that!
This is really helpful! I love sheet masks and it’s great to know which of these is great for what!

SO glad you found it helpful! Sheet masks are my favorite!
I am a TonyMoly sheet mask fanatic, but I need to venture out and try some other brands. I’ll be honest, I was anticipating a selfie with you wearing the sheetmask, so I was really excited to see you actually post one! haha! My husband is creeped out by them, but that may be due to me scaring the daylight out of him the first time I tried one! hehe!
Haha that’s too funny! I think you’d love Patchology and their masks and under eye gels are amazing! 🙂
I haven’t tried any of these sheet masks. They sound really nice!
You should definitely try one of them! They feel incredible on the skin and I think they really do help your makeup apply more nicely.
I have always wanted to try sheet masks! I loved this post – thank you for breaking it all down 🙂 The Patchology under-eye masks are some of my favorite, so I feel like I would really like these!
So glad you loved the post, Kait! If you love their under eye gels then you’ll be swooning over their sheet masks. The illuminating one is my personal fave! 🙂
I haven’t tried any of their products, so I’m really intrigued.
You should definitely give them a try, Lily!
I am obsessed with sheet masks! I’ve never heard of this brand though but am excited to try.
I definitely recommend them! And I know you love natural ingredients, so I think you’d love them. 🙂
I’m definitely a “minimalist” when it comes to my skincare routine, but I love sheet masks and I officially want to try all of these! I’m going to stock up on them so I can stick to a consistent schedule like you recommended. I’m so guilty of being inconsistent, but I know I’ll love the results even more if I keep it up!
I’ve really been trying to be more proactive with my skin routine this year and I love sheet masks for helping with certain skin concerns. If I’m feeling dry I use the hydrate one, if I want my skin glowing for a photo shoot then I use the illuminate one, and it’s amazing. Hope you can find some ones that you love!
I love sheet masks, if it weren’t for them I would never do anything good for my skin. I love that I can put them on while I lay in a hot bath at the end of the day! Who has time to do an hour mask a day? I definitely need to try all of these masks !
I completely agree, Leslie! I struggle with products that require a huge time commitment. I like that the Patchology sheet masks can be worn in 5 minutes and you’d definitely love them! 🙂
I haven’t tried thes e yet but I am a huge fan of sheet masks! I try to use them regularly.
The illuminating one is my personal favorite from Patchology and it always makes my skin look glowing. I’m a HUGE fan of sheet masks too.
ive never used a sheet mask but these are def something i could try soon! 🙂
I definitely recommend these and I think you’d love them. They’re perfect for busy mamas! 🙂
I see sheet masks all the time, but I never know what ones are good. These look great and you are even adorable with your sheet mask on!
Aw thank-you! I think you’d love them. They feel SO good on the skin and are great for wearing while soaking in a tub after a long day.
