9 Overnight Masks That Your Thirsty Skin Needs Right Now

Aug 4 2018 by Tori Crowther

What could be better than combining two of life's greatest pleasures: sleeping and face masks? Overnight masks or sleeping packs (as they're called in Korea) will give your skin an intense hydration boost while you sleep, so you can wake up with supple and baby-smooth skin. The truly great thing about overnight masks is that they can be used on just about every skin type, so if you're prone to breakouts, they can be a great way to combat inflamed skin without clogging pores but still restoring hydration.

Read on to shop some of our favourites so you can give your thirsty skin a glow this Summer.

Mizon Snail Wrinkle Care Sleeping Pack

I've sung the praises of the Mizon Snail Wrinkle Care Sleeping Pack (£16) before, and I'll do it again. It gives intense hydration without clogging pores and leaving skin prone to breakouts. Some people even swear by snail mucin for getting rid of their acne. The consistency of this cream is very sticky, so I recommend applying half an hour before going to bed to allow time for it to absorb into the skin. But trust me, the stickiness is well worth it.

Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask

Not only will Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask (£40) look incredible in your beauty stash, but it will make your skin look incredible too. There's a reason this is a cult product: the gel formula sinks into the skin while you sleep, acting to reduce inflammation and give you a glow all while you sleep.

J.One Black Jelly Overnight Rescue Mask

J.One Black Jelly Overnight Rescue Mask (£36) is a lightweight and nonsticky jelly formula that will leave your skin feeling extremely nourished. It's also a really cool black colour when pumped out, if you like a little drama with your skin care.

Lumene Nordic C [Valo] Overnight Bright Sleeping Cream

If you want to try out an overnight mask but don't fancy a gel-like formula, Lumene Nordic C Overnight Bright Sleeping Cream (£22.50) is a thicker night cream and delivers lots of hydration. It also contains vitamin C to give the skin a radiant glow the next day.

The Body Shop Drops of Youth Bouncy Sleeping Mask

The Body Shop Drops of Youth Bouncy Sleeping Mask (£25) is also a nice lightweight formula, and a little goes a long way. It will leave your skin feeling supple and silky smooth. It's a great product to use after a pore-clarifying mask to hydrate and soothe.

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Overnight Hydrating Masque

To get great results from the Kiehl's Ultra Facial Overnight Hydrating Masque (£34), apply a thick lather on cleansed skin for 10 minutes, then blot off excess with a towel or tissue and wake up with healthy, hydrated skin.

The Crème Shop Collagen Overnight Gel Mask

I tried The Crème Shop Collagen Overnight Gel Mask (£5) after coming across it at T.K.Maxx and being convinced by the small price, and it's a new favourite. It is incredibly lightweight but delivers so much moisture, you'll wake up with seriously luminous skin.

Quick Fix Facials Vitamin C Miracle Mask

If you're looking for a quick pick-me-up product, Quick Fix Facials Vitamin C Miracle Mask (£5) does exactly what it promises. The vitamin C will brighten the complexion while giving it a much-needed boost of moisture.

Vita Liberata Self Tanning Night Moisture Mask

If hydration just isn't enough and you need a bronzed glow, reach for Vita Liberata Self Tanning Night Moisture Mask (£30). It will give you a golden (with no orange tones) glow while you sleep without the drying feeling tan can leave.
