Here are 5 face masks that will comfort your angry winter skin

All masks are not created equal. Cosmetic face masks come in many options, fresh or preserved, jar, tube, or mess-free sheet mask. While some face masks help your complexion overall, most are designed to target specific concerns since different ingredients have different superpowers. To achieve the outcome you want, it is important to understand how key factors in a mask will work toward your solution.

Now, it’s the middle of winter and most of us are fighting dry skin caused by the wind and cold weather. The best remedies for this include soothing oats and moisturizing oils. The weather can be totally harsh, but with the right mask, your skin can look as fresh as spring! Below, our top five favorite face masks for fighting winter dryness.
