Cooling face masks for calming hot and bothered summer skin

After a particularly hot day, there's nothing quite like kicking back with a face mask (and a chilled glass of rosé if you're feeling indulgent) to unwind.
When we're feeling hot and bothered, our faces bear the brunt of our discomfort - red, blotchy and angry looking.
Cooling facemasks can help our skin to readjust after a spike in temperature (or maybe you were naughty and got a little sunburnt), and help us return to our regular complexion.

Baby Soft Skin
This product exceeded my expectations massively. The texture of the product is really nice light and no smell whatsoever.
Not worth it
I got this in a Christmas kit in the shade Lean in. I’m not sure if the problem is the shade or the gloss itself but I don’t think it’s a product to use on its own.
Super glittery and not very lasting
I got this product in the shade 872 Glit/Doré. I find that the colour looks nice on first application but as soon as you blend it it fades and you’re just left with a bunch of glitter in your eye.
