FACE MASK
Not all face masks are suitable for sensitive skin types, making it harder to find ways to target specific ailments such as a dull, dry complexion. The Body Shop’s Aloe Soothing Rescue Cream Mask is specifically formulated for sensitive skin types and can provide the complexion with a bout of nourishing hydration overnight. To use, apply a thin layer to cleansed skin and leave on for 20 minutes. When your time is up, massage the excess mask into your complexion and allow the mask to work overnight to moisturize your skin.
