I’ve been on a mask mission lately, trying out everything from Tracie Martyn’s Enzyme Exfoliant (brilliant, but at $98 for a jar the size of a salt shaker, probably not the wisest purchase) to Shiseido White Lucent Intensive Brightening Mask – one that actually adheres to your face like a scary ski mask (lovely and, again, expensive) to a homemade oatmeal mask that turned out to be an oily, sloppy disaster.

My face may be prone to breakouts, but it doesn’t tend to be terribly finicky. However, I do find that soap residue can be a major problem. The key indicator that there is still some film on your skin? It feels dry and almost cracked – both symptoms can be fixed with moisturizer, …read more
