How to Find the Best Face Mask For Your Skin Type

"If you have very sensitive skin, you'll want to avoid strong actives like retinol, glycolic, and salicylic acid, which may aggravate the skin," warns Emer. Instead, look for masks with calming and soothing ingredients like aloe, argan oil, hyaluronic acid, and honey. Peel-off masks can be especially harsh for sensitive-skin types, so stick to the lighter, whipped textures, and definitely search for a fragrance-free option like Josie Maran Whipped Mud Mask Argan Hydrating and Detoxify Treatment ($48).
