Jelly masks for dry or tight skin
When skin feels tight after washing, or rough in patches, a jelly mask is an easy way to make it feel soft again. It holds moisture against your skin while it sets.
Formulas to try
Tips
- Mask after a warm shower, when skin is soft.
- Follow straight away with a moisturiser to keep the soft feel.
- One to three times a week suits most dry skin, winter included.
Questions
Is a peel-off mask drying?
A jelly mask isn't like a clay mask, which dries hard. It stays soft and cool. Hyaluronic Acid has hyaluronic acid, and Rose has sodium hyaluronate, a form of it, both of which help skin hold on to water.
Which formula is best for very dry skin?
Hyaluronic Acid if your skin mostly feels tight, or Vampire PLLA Infusion if it feels rough and has lost its smooth feel.

Before you start
Patch test first. Hyaluronic Acid contains retinol, kojic acid and arbutin, so wear sunscreen the day after using it, and don't use it on the same day as other retinoids or exfoliating acids. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your doctor first.
Every formula is $54 a jar, about 8 masks (about 10 from Vampire PLLA Infusion's larger jar), with free shipping on 2 or more jars.
