The best overnight face masks that transform your skin while you sleep
When it comes to night creams there are two very different camps. There are those who have a designated day cream and a different formula for overnight, and then there are those who opt for a separate SPF and use the same moisturiser whatever time of day.
With the festive season in full swing and temperatures plummeting outside, sometimes our skin needs some extra TLC and the best time to inject this is while we sleep. Enter the game-changing overnight masks that do all the hard work for you…
The best all-round overnight mask
Clinique Moisture Surge Overnight Mask, £31
This launched a few years back and not even Clinique were prepared for how well it was received. The creamy texture leaves your skin feeling soft and supple without clogging up your pores. While it has been formulated for overnight use, we’ve also been known to use it as a face cream when temperatures outside plummet.
The skin-smoothing overnight mask
Orveda Overnight Skin Recovery Masque, £195
There is something incredibly indulgent about painting on a face mask with a brush and while this particular formula is incredibly expensive, the results speak for themselves. Created by a former L’Oreal president, Sue Y Nabi, Orveda is a ground-breaking vegan beauty brand that is definitely one to watch out for in 2018.
The best budget overnight mask
B. Radiant Overnight Mask, £5.95
At the other end of the scale, B. proves that effective overnight masks don't need to cost the Earth. Not only is this product incredible in terms of hydration, but it also ticks the box for those concerned about vegan and cruelty-free beauty.
The essential accessory
Slip Embroidered Silk Pillowcase, £79
Silk pillowcase sales have gone through the roof this year as more of us are becoming savvy to the skin-preserving effects of using one. Slip's come in a range of colours and the silk not only protects your skin, but stops your hair from frizzing too.
