What is an overnight face mask? It’s a face mask you apply before going to bed and remove when you wake up the next day! The purpose of an overnight face mask is to deliver nutrients at night time (or rather all night long), which is when the skin takes time to regenerate and repair itself. These masks, rich in nutrients, help renew skin cells, plump up skin, soften it and encourage collagen production so you can wake up to healthy glowing skin!
