Recently I posted this photo on my instagram showing off my much loved Origins mask collection. It was definitely love at first use with these masks ever since I first tried the delicious Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask. From there my collection has grown to include these 4 amazing masks which I will be reviewing for you in this post! All of the masks mentioned below are $37 and can be purchased at Mecca Maxima, Kit Cosmetics or mecca.com.au
// Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask
An essential in anyone's bathroom cupboard, Clear Improvement is perfect for maintaining a really clear complexion and minimising the appearance of pores. A lot of dirt and other pollution gets trapped in pores on a daily basis so it's a good idea to use a detoxifying mask a few times a weak to keep your skin squeaky clean and also to help your skincare absorb better! The great thing about Clear Improvement is that it is really effective without being drying or harsh on your skin so it is great for all skin types, including sensitive.
BEST FOR: Detoxifying congested skin and clearing blackheads.
KEY INGREDIENTS: Activated Charcoal, White China Clay, Lecithin
// Out of Trouble 10 Minute Mask
Out of Trouble is one of my holy grail skincare products and one that I reach for a lot because it does exactly what it says - gets your skin out of trouble! When my skin is particularly stressed out this mask is great for calming redness and reducing inflammation as well dragging out all those nasty impurities that can clog your skin. Another great benefit of this mask is that it contains salicylic acid to exfoliate within the pores and help prevent future breakouts. Definitely a great product if you have oily, acne prone skin.
BEST FOR: Calming inflamed breakouts and keeping future spots at bay.
KEY INGREDIENTS: Zinc Oxide, Sulphur, Camphor
// Original Skin Retexurising Mask
The newest addition to the Origins mask range is the Original Skin mask which not only draws out impurities to detoxify the skin but also has exfoliating particles to leave your skin feeling smooth and soft. I also would definitely recommend this product if you suffer from blackheads or whiteheads. I had a few little spots under the surface of the skin but after using this mask I could tell that they had come to the surface and then cleared by the exfoliating beads. I loved the rose scent of this mask and I definitely noticed a difference in both the texture and brightness of my skin after only one use.
BEST FOR: Removing dry, flaky skin to keep skin smooth and bright!
KEY INGREDIENTS: Rose Clay, Willow Herb and Jojoba beads
// Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask
By far my most used mask, I reach for Drink Up Intensive every second night or so. The best thing about Drink Up Intensive is its delicious apricot scent and how fast you see results. When you wake up after wearing this mask overnight, dehydrated skin will feel super soft. An absolute essential during the colder months and is also great for flying.
BEST FOR: Injecting dehydrated skin with a heap of moisture!
KEY INGREDIENTS: Apricot Kernel Oil, Avocado and Japanese Seaweed
