It comes down to your skin type, your individual skin needs and the type of mask you use. Some masks are best used once a week, while others can be used more often, up to 3 times a week.
However, some masks can be used several days a week. For example you can use your face mask in the morning or at night – it all depends on your schedule and personal preference.
