If you're dealing with dry skin, wrinkles, acne or just want to get glowing skin, overnight masks are a great way to help combat these issues. They are "meant to be applied before bed and left on skin to allow the ingredients to work overnight," says Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty Reviews Analyst Chiara Butler. Though your skin naturally repairs itself while you're sleeping, these masks are "designed to support that process," adds Marisa Garshick, M.D., a board-certified dermatologist at MDCS Dermatology.
