I've ditched expensive facials for this £3.49 face mask and my skin has never been brighter

As a beauty editor, I have been supremely lucky to try many facials over the years. So far so spoiled. But working, parenting and everything else in life has meant that I just don't have the time for a 60-minute treatment anymore, however much I crave one - which is where a certain £3.49 mask comes in...

My skin already errs on the dry side, but during the winter months, it is especially unhappy, faced with biting winds as well as the central heating I have pumping constantly. So with little time spare, there’s no denying that an at-home facial is a brilliant way of flooding skin with hydration and nourishment, especially at this time of year. It also of course offers an unbridled moment of relaxation - a time to press pause, close your eyes and zone out.
