Recreate a Spa-Like Experience at Home with the Best Clay Masks for Every Skin Type

Sometimes we need a product that truly does it all–that’s where this 5-in-1 mask comes in. It detoxifies with charcoal and kaolin clay, gently exfoliates with papaya enzymes, nourishes and calms thanks to jojoba & peppermint oils, hydrates with shea and cocoa butter, and brightens with turmeric. Apply this all-in-one clay mask, and you just might have the confidence to turn off that Zoom filter.

Whether you’re experiencing acne, eczema, or rosacea, this anti-inflammatory and antibacterial mask made with white clay and hyaluronic acid will calm your skin and reduce swelling, all while serving up serious hydration. If you have sensitive skin, you’ll especially love the way it cleans out your pores without stripping your skin’s moisture barrier. Bonus: It also delivers 100mg of CBD to soothe your complexion.

“Great mask to clean our pores and fight bacteria,” says one Ipster. “This stuff is great. Goes a long way and is moisturizing and leaves my skin feeling great and my pores feeling like they're breathing,” says another.

This pretty pink(!) mask is packed with antioxidants to help protect and fortify your skin. It also helps reduce the appearance of dark spots, while stimulating collagen production and giving your skin a good deep clean with bentonite clay. “This right here is the MVP of clay masks,” says one Ipster. “I love the way this makes my skin feel and look,” says another. Bonus: It’s also packed with aloe vera and vitamin E to soothe your complexion.

If you’re looking to brighten dull-looking skin, slather on this miracle-working mask and get ready for your glow-up. This cult-favorite mask uses nourishing aloe and pink Australian clay to fight damage caused by pollution, draw out toxins, absorb oil, and leave you with a more radiant, clearer complexion. “Very good mask to clean out pores and balance oily skin,” says one Ipster. “Great for brightening,” says another. Bonus: The pink hue makes it totally worthy of a #maskselfie.

This firming facial mask will help give you smooth, supple skin thanks to a powerful combination of collagen and elastin. These ingredients help hydrate and heal deep within your skin to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. While some clay masks can be drying, this hydrating formula will leave you with that just-moisturized feeling thanks to a unique blend of olive oil, lavender, and avocado oil. “I’m wary of clay masks because I have dry skin but this was very nourishing,” says one Ipster.

This facial-in-a-bottle uses white clay to draw out dirt and excess oil, and fight free radical damage that occurs from environmental stressors (like pollution and UV rays). Antioxidant-rich green tea protects your complexion, while ginger and lemon work together to detoxify, brighten, and fight free radicals. This mask also minimizes the appearance of pores and leaves you with a gorgeous glow. “This product makes your skin feel soft and refreshing and beautiful,” says one Ipster.

This mask gives a whole new meaning to beauty sleep—it treats your skin with antioxidant-rich pomegranate extract (high in vitamin C) that brightens, protects, and helps heal and hydrate your skin’s barrier. Even better? You won’t have to worry about it messing up your sheets. “I was worried that this would transfer to my bedding while I slept but it didn’t! My face had an even tone when I woke up and it was so smooth,” says one Ipster. “I was skeptical but this stuff ROCKS! I used it 3 nights in the first week and saw a reduction in fine lines, tons of plumpness, and no greasy feeling. Even hubby tried it and likes it after shaving at night,” raves another.

Montmorillonite clay helps shrink pores and stimulate blood flow to boost your glow. Even those with sensitive skin approve of this detoxifying clay mask, thanks to the addition of allantoin, which soothes irritation, reduces redness and flaking. “What a great product! I could really feel the tightening when it was drying but my skin felt so good after,” says one Ipster. “My breakouts appeared smaller and less red the next morning while my skin still felt smooth and hydrated,” says another. All you need is nine minutes and the right mud mask to minimize pores and improve skin tone.

If you feel like your cleanser just isn’t cutting it, add this mud mask to your routine to exfoliate and remove product build-up, dirt, and grime. It combines kaolin clay, rice powder, and pearl powder to give your skin the deep clean it craves, plus leave you with a radiant glow. Bonus: It also improves makeup application and helps foundation glide onto your skin smoothly and evenly. “I like the way this mask makes your skin feel refreshed and clean after using it,” says one Ipster. “This mask cleans my pores and removes dead skin to reveal healthy, soft skin,” says another.

This fragrance-free mask won’t stress out sensitive skin, but it will help clear up breakouts. Eggplant extract and walnut skins give it a grainy texture that easily (and gently) helps slough off dead skin cells, plus kaolin clay draws out dirt and purifies your pores. “Great mask for sensitive skin. Didn’t break me out or cause redness or irritation,” raves one Ipster. “This was an amazing product! I noticed that any blemishes I had cleared up the next day,” says another.

Does your T-zone tend to get oily? Reach for this mud mask to mattify skin and nix shine. The charcoal is like a magnet that zaps product buildup from your pores and blackheads and whiteheads away, while witch hazel absorbs oil and soaks up excess grease. “I love this mask. It immediately starts taking effect as soon as you put it on. It's tingly and feels a little hot, then it gets to your face and feels so relaxing,” says one Ipster. “Made my skin super soft and less oily. Felt really nice,” says another.

Kiss your congested complexion goodbye, thanks to this breakout-busting mask that minimizes pimples and unclogs pores, all thanks to sulfur. Sulfur works overtime to clear up existing acne and stop new blemishes in their tracks. This mask works on all forms of pimples from inflammatory acne to hormonal acne, and even acne skin conditions like rosacea. Ipsters can’t get over the results. “This works wonders for my active acne,” raves one fan. “Actually does help the appearance of acne,” shares another.

Is dirt the secret to keeping your complexion clear? This mask’s unique Dutch Dirt Tulip complex helps minimize pores and rebalance your complexion, while hyaluronic acid draws in moisture to keep skin hydrated and plump. We especially love that the vegan formula is paraben- and sulfate-free. “Best Mask I have used in YEARS! I am a mask connoisseur and this one is magical! Pores are clean, almost invisible, skin glows,” says one Ipster. “Gritty & muddy, so it exfoliates & cleans your skin like super mud. It’s so potent it tingles as you apply it. Love how soft & smooth my face felt after using it,” says another.

Can’t make it to the spa? This cooling mud mask is like a cryo-facial in a bottle, all thanks to menthol-infused kaolin clay, niacinamide, and potent fruit extracts—all which soothe and cool, brighten and tighten, and absorb excess sebum. The result? Your complexion will be fresh and clear. “Loved this mask, and I loved that it was refrigerated. After a humid or sweaty day, this cool mask felt minty fresh and clean. Made my skin lighter and brighter and glowing,” says one Ipster. “THIS STUFF IS AMAZING. Instant effects. My pores are smaller and my life is happier,” raves another. Pro tip: store it in the fridge and slather it on after a workout or on a hot day to really reap the cooling benefits.

Just because pore-clearing clay masks do all the dirty work, doesn’t mean they can’t smell delightful. Lemon verbena brightens skin and purifies pores, and also gives this clay mask an intoxicating scent that’s a major mood booster. “Smells amazing and has amazing results. It does a good job at cleansing impurities and leaving the skin fresh and bright,” says one Ipster. “Love the smell, really good consistency,” says another.
