16 Best Korean Face Masks for the Dewiest Skin Ever

Our Beauty Lab experts deemed this pick the best overnight mask in testing because it increased skin hydration by 49%. It also performed better than other overnight masks with high moisturizing claims, and testers reported that the product soaked quickly into the skin. It contains amino acids and a mineral rich bamboo sap, which might explain the reasoning behind its silky, gel-lotion texture.

It's a given that sheet face masks are messy and slippery because they're usually drenched in an abundance of essences and serums. But our Lab experts noticed that this particular sheet mask was saturated with a less-than-average amount of serum, making it less messy, thus scoring high for application. Consumers also gave this sheet mask the highest score overall for moisturization.

You can get this bundle right on Amazon, where it boasts a 4.5 star rating and over 17,000 reviews. It includes 16 various face masks, all of which aim to build collagen and help the skin appear clear and elastic. A couple of Amazon reviewers in their mid-40s claimed to see change in texture and brightness after use.

This mousse mask might just be the ultimate treatment for clogged pores. "It combines exfoliant acids, volcanic ash, and kaolin clay to remove dirt and impurities while also clearing older cells and bringing about new healthy ones," says Dr. Chimento. It's a great choice for those who have combination or oily skin. 

Formulated with highly concentrated mineral water, this overnight face mask packs a punch of moisture to dehydrated skin. "This mask leaves my skin dewy, nourished, and so smooth in the morning," writes one reviewer. It has a thinner and looser consistency compared to masks and easily absorbs into the skin.  

If you're dealing with textured skin, this mask claims to go deep within the pores to help refine, smooth and resurface the skin. It aims to optimize skin cell turnover and brighten it for a fresh and clean look. Note that this mask is strong, and online reviewers report feeling subtle stinging during use. Make sure to use with sunscreen.

This cult-favorite mask is loved for its multi-use efforts: It hydrates with hyaluronic acid and gently exfoliates with alpha-hydroxy acids. Even Dr. Chimento is a fan: "You can leave this one on to sleep or wash it off after 10-20 minutes," she tells us. "It is super soothing and will help brighten your face." If you have sensitive skin, Dr. Chimento recommends using the mask as a wash-off.

Online reviewers like the lightweight yet hydrating feel of this mask so much that they'll use it in place of a moisturizer. Reviewers also love that this mask is cheaper than most Korean face masks, though some wish the tube contained more product. The mask uses rice extract to soften, brighten and moisturize the skin.

Highly-rated on Sephora, this sheet mask works to help combat breakouts and reduce blemishes. It's formulated with salicylic acid, tea tree oil and niacinamide to help diminish shine. One online reviewer comments, "This mask really helps with calming redness and hyperpigmentation."

"This is a great product to simply moisturize the skin intensively while you sleep to help your skin look more plump and glowing," says Dr. Frieling. It soothes and moisturizes the skin using fermented forest yeast, which the brand claims as almost 12% more effective compared to madecassoside. 

Dehydration, poor diet, or even weather can contribute to dull-looking skin. This $6 mask uses ingredients like bilberry and licorice extract to give your skin a boost. "Every time I use this, my skin looks like I got a fresh facial — so hydrated, plump, and bright," says one happy online reviewer. 

It's a bit pricey, but this peeling mask does wonders for exfoliating and getting rid of unwanted texture. Dr. Frieling is a fan herself, saying, "It's great for removing dead skin and smoothing out the texture of that top layer. The papaya enzymes act as an excellent exfoliating ingredient." 

No matter if you want to firm, soothe, rejuvenate, or detox, this face mask set has something for you. Each mask helps restore hydration while treating a specific skin issue for glowing skin. Plus, all masks come in fun packaging and make fun gifts or individual stocking stuffers.

This luxury pick is formulated with serums and a blend of crushed herbs that work to hydrate, soothe and smooth the skin. It's the perfect choice for those seeking to replenish moisture and bounce for a fuller and brighter look. "Once the face mask is absorbed, the skin rises like a phoenix, more supple and hydrated than before," says Dr. Chimento.  

Vitamin C is a good ingredient to help boost brightness and fade hyper pigmentation or scarring. This sheet mask set is packed with Vitamin C-rich fruit ingredients like pomegranate and mulberry extracts that help protect the skin. You receive five sheets in each box.

Sagging skin and fine lines are natural, but certain products can help slow down the aging process. This quirky pig mask contains a rich formula of gold extract, collagen, squalene, and honey extract — all of which help firm and hydrate while promoting youthful skin.
