2018 has flown by, but it's not over yet. Between now and its official close, we have the madness of the holidays including last-minute shopping, wrapping up projects at work, and booking the flights to our friends and relatives that we plan to spend the our vacations with. It's going to feel like a whirlwind (if it doesn't already), but the best way to finish off the year is with a series of cooling, calming face masks — ones that will shoo off any scaries or residual stress that this month may have caused. Below are our favourites.
