Best Face Masks To Tackle Your Specific Skin Type

Acne and Blackheads:

GLAMGLOW SuperMud--

This mask has six acids and some charcoal to pull the yucky stuff out of your pores. Not only does it help with acne and blackheads, but also razor bumps, ingrown hair, and oiliness, and scars. It goes on a dark gray and dries a light gray but you can see it working because the areas where sebum and oil are being extracted turns almost black.


Pore Pudding by Boscia--

This mask blends black charcoal for drawing out impurities and the white charcoal to control future oil production for a more matte skin.

Large Pores:

Though the masks above help to minimize pores as well, there are others that specifically target large pores in order to treat them more powerfully.

Caolion Premium Hot and Cool Pack--

This two-part Korean face mask has a heating mask and cooling mask. Like the GlamGlow and Pore Pudding masks, the heated mask opens the pores and draws out the impurities, preparing it for step two. Once you've washed off the heating mask, the cooling mask is applied and the cold will close your pores so fewer bacteria can enter, creating a cycle for clear skin.

DIY version: You can also simulate the same function of the mask by either using the skin clearing masks or washing your face, then dunking your face in ice cold water for a few minutes.

Oily Skin:

Oily skin usually happens when your skin is too dry. Always moisturize and even consider using a night oil. When your skin is dry your pores produce extra oil, which gets trapped under the tiny dry skin, causing acne and an oily face.

FIRST AID BEAUTY Skin Rescue Purifying Mask with Red Clay--

For oily skin, the SuperMud and Pore Pudding work pretty well, but if you're looking to address just oily skin, go for First Aid Beauty's product. Just make sure to moisturize right after; this brand has an amazing moisturizer line.


Drunk Elephant Marula Oil--

This product is amazing for acne prone, aging, oily, dry, any skin really. Whenever I go to sleep with this oil on I wake up with my skin clearer and better looking.


Boscia White Charcoal Mattifying Makeup Setting Spray--

If your face gets oily throughout the day, especially in this heat, I recommend this Boscia product. White charcoal is amazing for controlling oil production so this 2-in-1 setting spray/skin treatment keeps your makeup free from any oil damage.

Dry Skin:

Sunday Riley Lactic Acid All-In-One Treatment--

This is great for brightening, resurfacing, anti-aging, clarifying, and moisturizing your skin.

GlamGlow Thirsty Mud:

Super moisturizing, and can be worn overnight.


The Drunk Elephant Marula Oil is great for dry skin too!

Dull/Uneven Skintone/Antiaging:

Sunday Riley Lactic Acid All-In-One Treatment--

This treatment is great for a lot of things, but if you're looking for the best anti-aging skin care, this is it. Using this over time will make your skin look brand new.


Drunk Elephant TLC Baby Face--

This 25% AHA and 2% BHA mask chemically exfoliates and resurfaces skin, with a tingling sensation your skin will look brighter, more even, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

Dark Undereye Circles:

Boscia Sake brightening under eye masks--

This saved me during Coachella when I was running on max four hours of sleep for three days and going crazy all over again in the morning. Brightens, moisturizes, and de-puffs your undereye.


Tarte 911 Under eye Rescue Masks--

Firms, de-puffs, treats fine lines, crows feet, darkness while hydrating your undereye.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
