Why Your Skincare Regimen Can Benefit from a Face Mask
Face masks have been a beloved skincare ritual for centuries, often offering a moment of relaxation while delivering powerful benefits. They are designed to provide intensive care a few times a week instead of daily, working faster and deeper than those everyday skincare products. If you’re seeking a detoxifying face mask, a hydrating treatment, or a radiance-boosting formula, our masks offer both quick and long-term results. Beyond the efficacy of each solution, they also encourage self-care and relaxation since a mask gives you time to pause, unwind, and focus on your well-being. This is why Borghese doesn’t just offer a line of luxury Italian skincare products but an at-home spa experience, too.
Skin Concern #1: Blemishes, Enlarged Pores, and Skin Congestion
A deep-cleansing mask is essential if your skin feels clogged, congested, or prone to breakouts. The Advanced Fango Active Mud for Face & Body is designed to draw out any impurities while nourishing the skin.
How It Works:
- Bentonite Clay lifts dirt and oil from pores, cleansing the skin and refining its texture.
- Sweet Almond Oil supports elasticity, ensuring skin remains supple and feeling fresh.
- Avocado Oil and Hyaluronic Acid provide hydration, preventing over-drying during such a deep cleanse.
- Siberian Ginseng Root and Chaga Mushroom Extracts fortify the skin’s barrier against environmental stress and pollutants.
This purifying mask has been a fan favourite since the 1980s and remains a beloved regimen staple as it helps to clear, nourish, and protect the skin effortlessly.
When to Use the Advanced Fango Active Mud for Face & Body:
- If your skin feels oily or congested.
- When you’re dealing with breakouts and clogged pores.
- After a long day facing environmental pollutants.
Skin Concern #2: Fine Lines, Wrinkles, and Uneven Skin Tone
Ageing gracefully means supporting the skin with deeply hydrating and reparative ingredients that prevent further damage. The Radiante Revitalizing Mask is formulated to do just this while boosting brightness and radiance.
How It Works:

Skin Concern #3: Dry and Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin requires gentle care that doesn’t compromise on efficacy, and the Advanced Fango Delicato Mud for Delicate Dry Skin is the ultimate soothing treatment. It hydrates, calms irritation, and reinforces the skin’s natural barrier.
How It Works:
- White Honey Extract moisturises and softens the skin.

Tips on Incorporating a Face Mask into Your Skincare Routine
A well-chosen face mask is meant to enhance your skincare routine, and knowing how to use it correctly makes all the difference.
- Cleanse First: Always apply a face mask on clean skin to allow active ingredients to penetrate effectively.
- Apply Evenly: Use a brush or your fingertips to spread a generous layer over your face, avoiding the eye area or other sensitive areas.
- Time it Right: Each mask has an optimal time for absorption; be sure to read the instructions carefully.
- Rinse and Follow Up: Remove the mask with warm water and then apply your chosen serum or moisturiser to lock in benefits. For best results, use your Borghese mask once to twice per week, depending on your skin’s needs.
Skin concerns often overlap, and this means you could choose one Borghese mask or try using different masks for different areas of the face or skin concerns. If your T-zone feels oily but your cheeks feel dry, you can apply the Advanced Fango Active Mud to congested areas and the Advanced Fango Delicato Mud to dry patches. Alternatively, you can rotate between masks based on your needs. A purifying mask can clear congestion one week, while a revitalising mask can restore radiance the next.
