Beauty Hacks
Some evenings call for nothing more than moisture. Others are clearly asking for a deeper cleanse, gentle exfoliation or a quick glow before the next morning.
The products in this edit are interesting precisely because they do not all try to solve the same problem.
1. Biodance Bio-Collagen Real Deep Mask
Price: around €5
This is the option I would keep for those evenings when skin looks tired, slightly rough and simply needs more hydration. The hydrogel mask contains low-molecular-weight collagen alongside hydrating ingredients, and it is designed to stay on for several hours or overnight.
What makes it appealing is the finish: skin can look noticeably plumper, smoother and fresher afterwards. It feels more like a little recovery ritual than a standard 15-minute sheet mask.
2. Beauty of Joseon Ground Rice & Honey Glow Mask
Price: around €13
Beauty of Joseon takes a completely different route. This creamy wash-off mask combines rice-derived ingredients, honey and fine rice particles, giving it a mix of nourishment and gentle physical exfoliation.
I like this type of formula when skin feels a little congested but I do not want an aggressive scrub. The texture has enough substance to make the masking step feel satisfying, while the final result is more about softness and a healthy-looking glow than dramatic resurfacing.
3. Innisfree Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask
Price: around €20
This is the more traditional deep-cleaning option. Innisfree’s clay mask is aimed at excess sebum, visible congestion and pores that feel particularly noticeable after a hot or busy week. Current European listings place it at roughly €19–20.
It makes the most sense for combination or oily areas rather than as an automatic full-face weekly ritual. I would especially reach for it around the nose and T-zone when the skin needs that properly clean feeling.
4. Arencia Fresh Green Rice Mochi Cleanser
Price: around €19
Technically, this one is a cleanser rather than a face mask, but its unusual mochi-like texture earns it a place in the same skin-reset category. It creates a soft lather and is designed to remove excess oil, impurities and daily buildup without leaving skin feeling stripped.
The texture is what makes it memorable: cushiony, slightly stretchy and far more interesting than an ordinary foaming cleanser.
A good skincare routine does not need the same treatment every night. Sometimes hydration is enough; another day, your skin may benefit more from gentle polishing or a deeper cleanse. Having a few different textures and purposes on hand makes it easier to respond to what your skin actually needs instead of following the exact same routine out of habit.
