Winter is the season for self-care. It’s cold out, the air is dry and the days are short. All we want to do is stay inside with a warm cup of tea, take a bath and indulge in a lengthy beauty routine. On self-care nights, masks are a must. We finally have the time, why not treat ourselves?

The thing with masks is that there are soooo many to choose from. It can sometimes be overwhelming to find the right one for your skin type and concerns. To simplify the process for you, we’ve listed 10 of our best-selling face masks. For each of them, we’re telling you what they do, who they’re good for and how you can benefit from them. Let’s discover them together!

HYDRATING FLORAL MASK

Tata Harper’s Hydrating Floral Mask is the perfect remedy for dry and dehydrated skin. In fact, this mask contains high levels of hyaluronic acid to recharge dry skin, replenish lost moisture and deliver thirst-quenching hydration. Not only that, but it smells amazing. The perfect addition to the self-care night in!

ULTRA PURIFYING CLAY MASK

Vivier’s Ultra Purifying Clay Mask is carefully crafted from red and white kaolin clay, alpha hydroxy acids and salicylic acid to draw out impurities, firm the skin and absorb excess sebum. This mask helps reveal flawless-looking skin without excess shine. If you have oily, acne-prone skin or are dealing with clogged pores, this may be the perfect mask for you.

MICRO-PEEL

The right amount of exfoliation is key to achieving a glowing complexion. In fact, an excess of dead skin cells can cause the skin to look dull. A once or twice a week exfoliating mask like the Micro-Peel Mask from Pro-Derm can be just what you need! Formulated with glycolic acid, this mask will help improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of pores and reveal a fresh, glowing complexion!

ANTI-POLLUTION MASQUE

Every day, our skin is exposed to environmental toxins such as air pollution, smog, cigarette smoke, gas exhaust, among other things. This exposure can cause premature aging of the skin, acne, collagen breakdown, hyperpigmentation, and other skin conditions. For that reason, it’s important to find products that combat this damage. Environ’s Anti-Pollution Masque is formulated with Japanese charcoal and special botanicals to help absorb pollutant impurities. Your skin will feel revitalized and smooth after this treatment mask!

SUPREME MOISTURE MASK

NUORI’s highly concentrated, yet lightweight moisturizing mask is the ultimate treatment for dehydrated and distressed skin. Grape and Damask Rose waters combined with natural Hyaluronic Acid effectively restore moisture levels, while botanical Squalene and Betaine strengthen the skin’s barrier function. Anti-inflammatory chamomile extract reduces irritation and restore suppleness, while Vitamin B3 revives skin tone, improves elasticity, and prevents moisture loss.

ULTRA HYDRATING MASK

This is another great hydrating mask for dry or dehydrated skin. Vivier’s Ultra Hydrating Mask is formulated with an exclusive blend of rich vitamins and extracts. This luxurious mask helps plump the skin, diminish signs of fatigue and soften fine lines and wrinkles. Restore your skin’s natural radiance in only a few minutes!

BRIGHTENING MASK

Dealing with hyperpigmentation? Or in need of a skin boost? Sahajan’s Brightening Mask is formulated with 100% natural ingredients to increase skin’s radiance. With potent natural and amino acid rich ingredients to help balance, tone and nourish the skin and AHAs to gently exfoliate, that coveted dewy glow is yours for the taking! Suitable for all skin types.

DETOXIFYING MASK

In need of a good detox? This at-home Charcoal mask uses a blend of Japanese white charcoal, clay and the naturally-occurring mineral Magnesium Aluminum silicate to minimize the appearance of pores while absorbing excess dirt, oil and debris trapped deep in the pores. Perfect way to wash off the week and start fresh!

HYDRATING B5 MASK

A cult-favourite SkinCeuticals product for a reason! Enhanced with a unique complex containing constituents of the skin’s natural moisturizing factor (NMF), this weekly hydration treatment re-establishes the water balance critical for maintaining skin metabolic functions at optimal levels. An intensive, effective hydrating mask for every skin type!

CURTAIN CALL MASK

Brightening masks can sometimes be harsh on sensitive skin, due to their acid contents. If this is the case for you, try Pai Skincare’s Curtain Call Mask. This Rosehip fueled rescuer boosts tired skin leaving it radiant and dewy. In ten minutes your complexion is audience-ready. Formulated to glide on evenly and polish off easily with the enclosed Muslin Cloth, the buttery cream leaves skin soft and dewy. Packed with calming botanicals and entirely free from irritants, it is ideal for sensitive or reactive skin!

As you may have heard, we just launched Egyptian Magic at Etiket (Yay!). This cult-favourite product has been raved about for over 20 years because of its ability to deeply hydrate and repair the skin quickly and with natural ingredients. Do you want to learn how to get the most out of this product? You’ve come to the right place. Let’s discover the 17 different ways to use Egyptian Magic.

As you may have heard, we just launched Egyptian Magic at Etiket (Yay!). Ever heard of it? This cult-favourite product has been raved about for over 20 years because of its ability to deeply hydrate and repair the skin quickly and with natural ingredients. In fact, this all-purpose balm contains only 6 ingredients: olive oil, honey, bee pollen, bees wax, royal jelly and bee propolis.

Most of us will use this balm as a face and body moisturizer, or as a cure for any skin burns or irritations. However, we’ve recently discovered that Egyptian Magic serves many other purposes, that’s why they advertise it as an all-purpose cream. Do you want to learn how to get the most out of this product? You’ve come to the right place. Let’s discover the 16 different ways to use Egyptian Magic.

1. AMAZING MOISTURIZER

People often start using Egyptian Magic to solve a skin problem such as a rash, a burn or a scar, and then continue using it as a face and body moisturizer Egyptian Magic recommends using it twice a day, as it does wonders for creating soft, smooth skin. It’s great addition to the winter skincare routine!

2. HAIR CONDITIONNER

One of the most delightful discoveries is how beneficial Egyptian Magic can be as a moisturizing hair conditioner – either on a regular basis or as a conditioning hot pack. Egyptian Magic’s all-natural ingredients will restore luster to your hair, replenish its natural oils, tame frizz and condition split ends.

3. LIP BALM

Egyptian Magic works wonders as a nourishing and repairing lip balm! The natural ingredients deeply nourish your lips and give them new life.

4. AFTER SHAVE

Your skin is sensitive especially after shaving. In many cases you may have scars and/or irritation as a side effect. Use Egyptian Magic as an after-shave for a soothing effect. Egyptian Magic contains no alcohol or chemicals that might cause your skin to dry out.

5. AFTER SUN SOLUTION

Egyptian Magic is often used as an after sun lotion. The cream gives a soothing effect and your sunburned skin may embrace the natural ingredients.

6. VAGINAL MOISTURIZER AND LUBRICANT

Yes. You read correctly. Egyptian Magic states that according to many gynecologists, such as Dr. Uzzi Rees of Beverly Hills, CA, Egyptian Magic works well as a natural vaginal moisturizer and lubricant. Huh!

7. HAND AND CUTICULE CREAM

Egyptian Magic is a great hand and cuticle moisturizer. In fact, many use it to treat their nails and cuticles, as the balm softens rough skin. Rub some Egyptian Magic on your hands and cuticles just before going to sleep to find nourished, soft and revived hands in the morning.

8. MAKEUP REMOVER

Egyptian Magic is also used as a safe, all-natural makeup remover. This balm works wonders as the first step in your double-cleanse routine. Start by massaging the balm into the skin to loosen any makeup or dirt from the day and follow up with a gentle cleanser to make sure everything has been removed. Not only is your makeup gone, your skin is moisturized and ready for bed!

9. EYE CREAM

Struggling with dry skin around your eyes? Dab some Egyptian Magic and let it do its work! Your eye contour will be hydrated in no time!

10. MASSAGE BALM

Egyptian Magic’s melting texture is ideal for massages. Warm up the balm between your hands until it transforms into an oil and massage on skin. Just relax, its moisturizing ingredients will soften and nourish your skin.

11. TATTOO AFTERCARE

After getting a tattoo, apply Egyptian Magic to the area to help with moisture, to reduce scabbing and to soothe itching and redness.

12. DIAPER RASH

Egyptian Magic is safe to use on babies and infants. As a non-irritating and petroleum-free formula, it is found to effectively deal with diaper rash, while moisturizing and soothing the baby’s sensitive skin. However, as with any skin care product, please consult your pediatrician before use and do not apply if your baby may have an allergy to bee products.

13. DURING AND AFTER PREGNANCY

Egyptian Magic claims that their balm helps with stretch marks and cracked nipples. Apply it on breasts, belly and thighs during pregnancy to prevent stretch marks and to keep your skin soft and supple.

14. MAKEUP PRIMER

Egyptian Magic can be used as a makeup primer as well! Who knew?! The brand claims that many makeup artists rely on it at every Fashion Week to create a dewy and glowing make-up look. They apply the balm on the entire face or to highlight specific features such as cheekbones, eyelids or eyebrows. You can even use it to set your eyebrows or mix a liquid illuminator with your Egyptian Magic and use as a highlighter for a light contouring!

15. HYDRATING MASK

If your skin is feeling dry, tight or dull, apply Egyptian Magic as a face mask and let the natural ingredients sink in. Apply a layer of Egyptian Magic on your skin, leave for 30 minutes and remove with a hot cloth. Your skin should wake up feeling much more nourished!

16. CRACKED HEELS AND ELBOWS

Egyptian Magic can be applied to any dry area from head to toe! Here’s a tip shared by the brand: before going to bed, rub some Egyptian Magic into heels and put on a pair of socks. You’ll wake up in the morning with nourished and restored feet!

Best Face Masks For Every Skin Concern

Discover the face masks that our in-house aesthetician Emmanuelle recommends for every skin concern!

Who doesn’t love a good face mask? They’re an integral part of a self-care night. You know, the nights where you take a warm long bath, slap on a face mask and indulge in your favourite binge-worthy show. I’m feeling relaxed just thinking about it. A face mask is a great way to give your complexion a little T.L.C in 20-30 minutes. In fact, face masks are designed to deliver high concentrations of active ingredients to your skin, usually allowing you to see results as soon as you remove them.

Now with more options on the market than ever before – sheet masks, clay masks, mud masks, exfoliating masks, overnight masks etc., – it can sometimes be overwhelming to find the right one for your skin. There is literally a face mask for every skin concern out there. Battling a pimple? There’s a mask for that. Struggling with dehydrated skin. Yep. There’s one for that too. The right face mask will quickly become your best-friend and the one product you reach for in dire situations.

In order to help you find your perfect match, we’ve asked our in-house aesthetician and Tata Harper Specialist Emmanuelle to recommend her favorite face masks for the most common skin types and concerns. Here are her suggestions.

OILY, ACNE-PRONE SKIN

When shopping for the perfect mask to tackle your oily, acne-prone skin, it’s important to look for products with clay, charcoal and exfoliating properties. Clay and charcoal work by absorbing oil out of pores, while exfoliating properties help clear the appearance of breakouts. These masks contain both and will help keep zits at bay!

ANTI-AGING

The goal in any anti-aging regimen is to avoid the dull, lackluster complexion we get as we age and to achieve a fresh, plump, glowing complexion. Look for masks that promote exfoliation, cell-turnover and the maintenance of healthy skin cells. The Environ and Tata Harper masks promote the exfoliation of dead skin cells, while the Pro-Derm sheet mask promotes healthy stem cells. If your cells won’t renew themselves, give them a push!

DRY SKIN

Dry skin can be a pain, especially going into the winter months. When shopping for a hydrating mask, look for ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin and plant oils and butters. Emmanuelle recommends you sleep with your hydration mask. In fact, depending on the texture, it helps the product penetrate the skin better. You’ll wake up with plump, hydrated skin that’s ready to take on the cold!

PIGMENTATION

Stubborn marks got you down? A face mask designed to treat pigmentation might just be what you need! Look for ingredients like AHAs when shopping for the right mask for you! AHAs like Glycolic acid will promote cell-turnover and brighten your overall complexion. The masks that Emmanuelle recommends also contain hydrating ingredients so they won’t irritate your skin.

SENSITIVITY

Masks designed for sensitive skin use key-words like hydrating, calming, soothing, etc. Most of them contain hydrating actives like Hyaluronic Acid, or calming ones like Cucumber. Many of our masks for sensitive skin are also aimed at treating post-procedure skin so you know they’re soothing!
