To say our weekly schedules have turned to dust is pretty much the understatement of the century. Workout classes? Cancelled. The 8am train? A no go. Our salon appointments? Donezo. And TBH we’re missing the structure.
So while we’re inside, it’s important to still build out some kind of schedule to set the days apart from each other and give ourselves a sense of normality – especially for the important stuff, like sheet masks (obviously).
Because while choosing your mask solely based on how cute it’ll look on the gram is always an option (and one we’re in full support of), we’re generally in it for more than just aesthetics, with multiple skin concerns we’re aiming to counteract.
And though one single sheet mask may not be able to address every issue, a solid skin schedule can – here’s our roundup of a week’s worth of stellar sheet masks that’ll take you all the way from moisturising Monday to soothing Sunday (and your complexion from bleak to blessed by EOW).
You’re going to want to add these vital bookings to your calendar ASAP.

Monday: maximise moisture
Palmer’s Coconut Water Hydrating Sheet Mask
Cure your face’s case of Monday-itis with this richly rehydrating mask. Formulated with a complexion-quenching combo of coconut forms (oil, milk and water!) plus hyaluronic acid, macadamia oil and cocoa butter, it’s ready and waiting to drench your skin in moisture.
Tuesday: boost brightness
Olay Skinfusion Deep Sea Algae Healthy Aura Sheet Mask
Been feeling flat lately? So has your skin. This radiance-restorer is bound to get your face looking luminous again, thanks to its brightening blend of Japanese deep sea algae; it’s the perfect formula to follow yesterday’s moisture-packed mask with to really commit to a glossy finish.
Wednesday: get glowing
St. Tropez Self Tan Express Bronzing Face Sheet Mask
Now obviously a faux glow is always the way to go anyway, but we’re just saying we’re starting to notice how vampires stay so pale in the movies (hint: they, like us, are always inside). By applying this subtle self-tanning sheet mask to your skin post-moisture and brightness boost, you’ll be left with a delightfully dewy all-around glow.
Thursday: purify pores
Simple Charcoal Purifying Sheet Mask
Alright, now that you’re a few days in (and your face has been loaded with hydrating and glow-enhancing ingredients), it’s time to hit skin with a pore-purifying mask to keep the good stuff in and get the bad stuff out. This one uses the powers of bamboo charcoal to keep your complexion free of congestion.
Friday: promote plumpness
The Body Shop Drops of Youth™ Youth Concentrate Sheet Mask
Ah, another Friday with no plans… we recommend a plumping formula to fight the boredom-related frown lines. Enriched with the brand’s iconic Drops of Youth concentrate, this sheet mask dials up skin’s bounchy, smooth and fresh factors like a dream.
Saturday: banish blemishes
Skin Republic Spots + Blemish Anti-Spot & Pore Refining Face Mask Sheet
You know how you would sometimes commit to a Saturday detox if the post-Friday hangover got too rough? Well, this mask helps you to do that for your blemishes instead of your body. Coated in a cleansing concoction of witch hazel, salicylic acid and tea tree oil, it’s sure to send pimples packing.
Sunday: soothe sensitivity
Kiss Cucumber: Soothing Sheet Mask
However you slice it, Sunday is the day of rest, so give your skin a chance to chill with this redness-relieving cucumber cotton mask. It’ll ease any inflammation caused by the blemish banisher you applied yesterday, while also replenishing and invigorating skin for the week ahead.
Absolutely use Sheet Masks every single week, they are awesome like some of the above mentioned Sheet Masks, have been using a Vitamin C infused Mask with Serums. My skin is looking so much better for using Sheet Masks.
I love a good sheet mask
I sheet mask daily but prefer Korean/Japanese/Taiwanese sheet masks. Better ingredients and price point.
Same here Ethelinde. I’m looking for a more cost-effective hydrogel mask option.
I love sheet masks, especially The Body Shop and Skin Republic. I usually use one on Sunday nights, but I’ve gotten a bit out of routine lately. I’ve got some Go-To Skincare ones in the queue waiting to be used too.
A sheet mask a day, could get behind this new schedule.
Wow these face masks look wonderful, love the assortment. I do love a good face mask, it is a treat for skin.
My schedule is always same, whatever I want to do I do really…things never changed. Lately didn't mask much as using some other things instead. Just once per week or so pop one on …
I use more masks since I spend more time at home.
Currently with a few spots I think I'd be going the Skin Republic one out of those atm.
Have lots of sheet masks and eye masks, need to start using them.
I didn't know about the Palmers coconut one. Def something I want to try.
I would like to try a sheet mask but have no idea where to start as there seems to be so many to choose from
Find your #1 skin concern & target that first. When my skin is OK, I opt for anti-ageing ones or something with a scent that appeals to me.
I've been using masks more than usual lately, which is good because I've got quite a stash building up.
I've been using sheet masks more often lately and my skin is certainly thanking me for it. And now is the best time to keep it up while I am working from home.
I love a sheet mask they are perfect for a boost and I make it a ritual, lie down, feet elevated, soothing music, herbal tea after – Me time !
I am actually trying to use sheet masks more.
I love sheet masks, I have some in the fridge at the ready for a self care loving time out. I find skin republic masks works well on my skin. I’ve tried so many I’ve lost count. I’ve recently ordered some newbies from Mecca
I bought a stack of sheet masks but I want to finish up all my overnight masks first
Not a big fan of sheet masks. I think its horrible for the environment.
Explore silicone masks.
A charcoal or cucumber sheet mask would be good right about now
I need the coconut masks asap. I love anything coconut and my skin needs some extra hydration with the change of seasons.
Love sheet masks, especially biodegradable ones.
Sheet masks are so awesome, but the problem is definitely having the time for them LOL.
I have both the Palmers and an Olay mask in my bathroom drawer waiting to be used 🙂
I've been using a face mask everyday! Isolation has been great for skin care
I should totally do this!
I have heaps of sheet masks, didn’t realise it is ok to use them so often. I do a pot mask once or twice a week so I will start using sheet masks on the other days. I will have to check for any best before dates on them.
I do a sheet mask three times a week, but since iso only once a week as my skin has been really good without using makeup!
I'm not a fan of sheet masks
I like mud mask the best.But sheet mask easy to put on and no mess.
I've never tried sheet masks.
I've never tried one, I guess I find them a little wasteful, which does not appeal to me.
I really enjoy a good sheet mask. Simple is great for its price.
But I prefer to do the same one in a row for few days to see an effect, esp hydrating ones
I absolutely love sheet masks and been trying to utilise 1 a week (since January) and while in lockdown it's been easier to make this happen! I've also been trying to use up my clay masks so I've added that into my routine too.
One of my favourites is Skin Physics for a great go to for hydration.
I've got a couple of sheet masks to use, but first I want to get through my potted masks as I've had them the longest. The sudden cold snap isn't making me want to mask I must admit!
Sounds like a plan…
I have reported all these posts as spam
I've got a quite a few too and have using them at least 3 – 4 times a week, plus a clay maso hopefully all round better skin
Probably need to exfoliate too and have not been doing this
I hate sheet masks because I can never get them to fit my face and it's so annoying so don't bother with them
The St tropez one sounds so good omg and the body shop one too
Not missing anything here! Plenty of time to try out the 60+ sheet masks I've purchased in the past year. Not enough isolation to get through them all haha
They all look lovely.
I've reported the spam by RoseMoore, laimcooper4, maryharmel007 and TracyMatt on the "SERIAL SPAM MEMBER ON BH" thread.
i love a good sheet mask but not convinced of the results
Perfect 😉
I love it!
I don't like sheet masks, prefer a cream based mask. Way too many mask days here for me
So many comments awaiting moderation! Grrr!
I use my reusable silicone mask nightly!
