8 Face Masks You Probably Haven't Tried Yet (but Should!) For Glowing Skin

We know that April showers bring May flowers. But we'd argue that April brings good skin, too. Many brands are putting their money into face masks, which means only good things for us. The only problem is deciding which one to dive into first.

The overall trend, you'll notice, is hydration, which is interesting since most of us associate hydration with drier weather. But with everything the average person does in a regular day, and perhaps fatigue from the news cycle, everyone can benefit from a hydration re-up. Check out masks that have hit the shelves that you might not be familiar with yet but are sure to become obsessed with.

Asarai Earth Tones Mask

Asarai Earth Tones Mask

Australia gave us the Hemsworths, Kylie Minogue, and 2018's buzziest skin care ingredient: Australian clay. Asarai Earth Tones Mask ($28) softens, brightens, and decongests the skin with red and white kaolin Australian clay, which helps with circulation, plus ingredients like plum to firm and tighten, sunflower seed oil to soothe, and aloe vera juice. Asarai is a natural brand inspired by the mountains, and this particular mask is made with 100% natural ingredients.

Kiehl's Instant Renewal Concentrate Mask

Kiehl's Instant Renewal Concentrate Mask

Hydrogel masks typically come in two sections: a top and a bottom, which makes all the difference when trying to adhere it to your face. Kiehl's Instant Renewal Concentrate Mask ($32 for four) is a hydrogel formula that's infused with cold-pressed Amazonian oils, so even if your skin is drier than the Coachella valley, you'll be looking hydrated and happy after removing it.

Laneige Eye Sleeping Mask

Laneige Eye Sleeping Mask

Laneige has a way of making us feel like we need masks for certain areas that maybe would just benefit from a cold cream. The Lip Sleeping Mask ($20) is a cult favorite, and now they've launched the Eye Sleeping Mask ($34). Like many eye creams, this mask depuffs and brightens the eye area, but the cool factor is in the applicator, which is a ceramic ball on the lid. And while it's positioned as a mask, it's a product you won't need to wash off.

Boscia Matcha Magic Super-Antioxidant Mask

If you live in Los Angeles, matcha is your kryptonite. (After all, they're both green.) While green drinks are par for the course when it comes to good health, matcha has a bunch of great skin benefits when applied topically, too. Boscia Matcha Magic Super-Antioxidant Mask ($38) is full of antioxidants and helps to reduce inflammation of the skin, which can help with redness and breakouts. It also helps to minimize oiliness.

Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask

Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask

Summer Fridays, the new social skin care brand from influencers Marianna Hewitt and Lauren Gores Ireland, launched in early March. Within two weeks, it was the #1 selling skin care brand on Sephora.com, beating out other fan favorite brands like The Ordinary and Sunday Riley. The Jet Lag Mask ($48) is the sole product offered from the brand, catering to those who live the "Instagram jet-setting lifestyle" — or just wish they did. It includes ceramides, vitamins, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory ingredients that help to combat puffy, inflamed, overworked skin, whether you just got off a red eye from Greece, had one too many glasses of wine while watching TGIT, or been up all night with your newborn.

Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Rescue Mask Seaweed Radiance Facial

Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Rescue Mask Seaweed Radiance Facial

Touted as the "five-minute facial-in-a-jar," Fresh Lotus Youth Preserve Rescue Mask Seaweed Radiance Facial ($62) covers all your skin care dilemmas: roughness, dull skin, uneven skin tone, dryness, and congestion. The good news is that the active ingredients, seaweed and algae, do not make this mask smell like you're Sebastian. Instead, the pleasant, calming smell calms your senses while giving your skin a super boost of radiance and moisture.

Tatcha Luminous Dewy Skin Mask

Tatcha Luminous Dewy Skin Mask

If you're not already obsessed with Tatcha's Luminous Dewy Skin Mist, you're in for a treat when you try the mask version ($12). If you're worried about dry skin and fine lines, put this sheet mask on, feel like Jason from Friday the 13th for 15 minutes, then remove and pat the excess serum into the skin. With 20ml of serum infused into the skin, your skin will feel plump and look dewy as hell.

Goldfaden MD Skin Balancing Mask

Goldfaden MD Skin Balancing Mask

If you can't get enough of the Doctor's Scrub, you're bound to self-medicate with Goldfaden MD's Skin Balancing Mask ($75, out May 1). We could all use a little more balance in our lives, right? The mask is all about refining and firming the skin, so it includes multipeptides and enzymes to smooth out the skin's texture and soothes the skin with jojoba oil and Vitamin E.
