7 Of The Best Overnight Masks For Effortless Hydration

Take your beauty sleep to the next level with a product that packs a skin-renewing punch. Wildly underrated (in our humble opinions), the sleeping mask is an unrivalled product if you want to wake up with skin that is revived, hydrated, smoothed and plump. Rounding out a comforting evening routine, the best thing about these hybrid products is that you get all the perks of an ultra-nourishing mask with none of the life admin (i.e. no need to wash them off). Simply slap on and sleep and let your skin do the rest. 

Here, we roundup seven of our favourite sleeping mask formulas for the nights when your usual moisturiser just won’t cut it.

A hard worker who supports your skin’s natural nocturnal activity, the Sisley Velvet Sleeping Mask contains a cocktail of powerful plant-based ingredients (including macadamia, cottonseed oils, kokum butter, Japanese lilyturf and padina pavonica extracts) to intensely nourish and moisturise while soothing irritation. The addition of saffron flower extract also helps to calm dry skin and help it regain suppleness for plump, juicy skin as soon as you wake up.

You’re only human, which means you’d be daft if Emma Lewisham’s Supernatural Overnight Mask wasn’t at the top of your wishlist. Engineered with the brand’s proprietary Physiology Synchrony Unlock Method, it harnesses 22 high-performing actives to rejuvenate the skin while you sleep. Gardenia jasminoides extract supports cellular restoration while peptides and phytonutrients trigger elastin and collagen production so you wake up with skin that is bright, renewed and even-toned.

If sensitivity is getting you down, Fresh’s Floral Recovery Calming Mask is for you. Clinically-proven to calm signs of irritation (including redness, uneven tone and rough texture), this overnight mask is powered by floral extracts—passionflower, cornflower, cherry blossom and peony—to calm and reduce the appearance of redness on sensitive complexions. Sensorially beautiful, once you add it into your routine, you won’t be able to live without.

Take the Greek yoghurt out of the kitchen and into the beauty routine with Korres’s Greek Yoghurt Probiotic Quench Sleeping Facial. Designed to nourish and replenish the skin with the rich, luxurious hydration of real Greek yoghurt, this overnight mask will help you wake up with skin that looks well-rested and healthy. Plus, with three different types of hyaluronic acid in the formula, you can rest-assure that hydration is a very, very good added bonus.

A hybrid serum-meets-moisturiser-meets-mask, the Tatcha Indigo Overnight Repair is a treatment designed to help calm and soothe irritated skin. Featuring ceramides to help strengthen the skin barrier and mondo grass root to help balance the microbiome, this nightly treatment helps to maximise the skin’s nightly renewal process for healthy-looking, radiant skin.

Skin craving antioxidants? L’Occitane’s Immortelle Precious Overnight Mask is just the thing to help your skin bounce back. An ultra-moisturising mask ideal for tired skin, this formula helps your skin resist the ageing effects of external aggressors (including blue light emitted from digital screens) and revives dull, dehydrated skin for a complexion that is healthy and glowing. It doesn’t get much better than this.

End every day with a little bit of luxury with the CHANEL Hydra Beauty Camellia Repair Mask. Creating a soothing and comforting moment of calm every evening, this multi-use hydrating mask contains nourishing camellia wax to protect the skin barrier against aggressors and lock in hydration. The perfect addition to your skincare routine if overworked, dehydrated skin is getting you down.
