1 / 9For pampering self-care days, what’s easier than peeling open a sheet mask and popping it on your face? Sheet masks used to be a novelty just a few years ago, but it’s quickly evolved to become a beauty staple these days. Pampering self-care days just aren’t quite complete without a sheet mask (or two), and some people even use it every day. There’s literally a sheet mask for every skin concern you can think of. And thanks to its growing popularity, sheet masks are available at various price points these days. Here are some of our tried-and-tested favourites.

3 / 9Keana Nadeshiko Rice Mask, $14.30 for 10 pieces available at Tokyu Hands
Sheet masking every day can get expensive, which is why bulk packs are popular in Japan. This cult-favourite mask from Keana Nadeshiko Rice Mask is infused with serum made from – you guessed it – Japanese rice. It’s so popular in Japan that some stores impose a limit on the number of packets you can purchase. The material of the mask is on the thicker side, adheres well to the skin and doesn’t tear easily.

9 / 9111Skin Rose Gold Brightening Facial Treatment Mask, $170 for 5 pieces available at Robinsons
At $34 per sheet, this 111Skin mask is certainly not cheap.

It’s great for brightening, smoothing out fine lines, moisturising, firming the skin and helping you feel extra-bougie.
