There are the face masks you wear when you have to go outside in a pandemic. And then there are the face masks you wear when you're safely inside (preferably with an episode of Bridgerton queued up) and in the mood to give your skin a little TLC. Since this is a podcast by Allure, our episode is all about the latter kind. With the help of dermatologist David Kim, Michelle and Jenny break down the many types of masks on the market (sheet, clay, mud, charcoal, you name it) and test out a tightening treatment that makes your skin look terrifying — and then absolutely amazing.
