Face masks are a good and fast way to rid our face of dirt, excess oil and impurities such as blackheads and whiteheads. There are many face masks available in stores now, ranging from the cheap masks to the more expensive masks. It is a trial and error process to know which masks are compatible with you and you need to have a budget for it, but what if you have a tight budget, does it mean that you have to short change yourself and skip your face mask regimen?
