Are you a sheet masker? They can be kind of love-hate. One thing I love about sheet masks is that they kind of force you to chill out for a moment. They’re best enjoyed without a phone, book, or everyday life distraction. A skilled sheet mask user could potentially still be doing work while masking, but for optimal results I think these masks are best done while laying down.
I often get asked, do sheet masks really work? After trying literally hundreds of them and mostly being underwhelmed, I’ve narrowed down my picks for the best sheet masks. Here are 5 sheet masks picks, at a variety of price points, I think you should know about.
In case you are new here, these are also all carrageenan-free. There are some clean options, cruelty-free options, and luxury options as well so something truly for everyone.
Inna Organic Deep Moisturizing Facial Mask
Inna Organic is a clean brand out of Taiwan, and the only EWG verified sheet mask I’ve found. The myrrh essential oil infused cotton sheet mask is deeply hydrating and soothing. They also sell a variety pack that I’m currently testing out, but this mask is still my absolute favorite.
Pixi Glow Glycolic Boost Mask
Pixi’s Glow Tonic range can do no wrong, in my opinion. Their glycolic based sheet mask is perfect for both brightening and lightly exfoliating. It’s a fantastic value as well at 3/$10.
Garnier SkinActive The Super Purifying Charcoal Sheet Mask
If you have acne prone skin, this is the best sheet mask for you here. It’s charcoal based for detoxification, but does not strip the skin like a traditional charcoal mask does. It does contain algae, but bladder wrack which is a brown seaweed and one that my skin can handle.
Hyalual WOW Mask
This is a total Amazon gem! This hydro-gel mask comes in two parts, one for the upper portion and one for the lower portion of the face. It’s packed with hyaluronic acid to boost hydration. It’s one I love to pack for travel!
3Lab Perfect Mask
When I think of the best sheet masks to recommend, this one immediately comes to mind. This one delivers an instant shot of hydration to the skin. It somehow also boosts plumpness and improves elasticity. This is the most expensive of the masks in this list, but it is also the most luxurious. Oh, and it smells so good and just like Sprite!
Can’t get enough sheet masks? Please check out some of my other skin care content before you go. Happy masking!
I didn’t realize there was an EWG certified mask! I use their database when buying most of my skincare and make-up products. I’m adding the Inna Organic one to my shopping cart. Thanks for the suggestion!
I LOVE face masks! I actually just got back from a facial and was just thinking how i need to stock up on my face masks at home so this post is so handy right now for me! Thanks for sharing 🙂 x

The world seems to be going CRAZY for sheet masks, so they must be good! I am yet to try them because they kind of creep me out but I know my skin would appreciate them!
I tried the Garnier one and it was quite ok for my skin.
It didn’t fit my face though – no sheet mask fits my face.
Oo that glow mask sounds really nice! Relaxing with a good mask is one of my favorite forms of self care.
I want to try the WOW mask! I’ve been hearing great things about hyaluronic acid! Great idea about using it for travel!
