Face masks (Oct book)

For unclogging pores

This cleansing mask’s combination of three clays (kaolin, montmorillonite and Moroccan) and eucalyptus help it to draw out impurities to minimize the look of pores and, best of all, stave off the dreaded oily sheen. L’Oréal Pure-Clay Purifying & Mattifying Mask, $20, available at mass retailers and drug stores.

For a dewy glow

This mask is 100 percent vegan and infused with real rose petals, rosehip oil and organic aloe vera. Keep it on hand for those days when you need to fake a nine-hour-sleep glow. The Body Shop British Rose Fresh Plumping Mask, $28.

For targeting fine lines

This hard-working formula is perfect on a day when nothing’s going your way (flat tire, spilled coffee, etc.). Slather it on and watch the tension lines disappear (thanks, banana and lemon thyme!). Clarins Extra-Firming Mask, $65.

For brightening your complexion

This “jam” mask is 50 percent crushed lemons, oranges and clementines. It looks like marmalade (minus the chewy peels), but it leaves behind baby-soft skin that glows. Fresh Vitamin Nectar Vibrancy-Boosting Face Mask, $80, Sephora.
