    I need one of those face masks you can just buy at the store that either peels or washes off. Does anyone know of any good brands for sensitive skin that just brightens and refreshens skin and helps reduce blemishes? I can't seem to a brand that works well! Any suggestions?

    Cold cream. It's magical.

    Or, make your own.
    Homemade Face Mask for Sensitive Skin
    This soothing mask is great for chapped, sunburned or irritated skin.
    1 cup natural yogurt (we like it just-out-of-the-fridge cold)
    ½ cup oatmeal (any type of basic oatmeal works here)
    Mix the ingredients together & apply to the skin for 15 minutes. Wash off mask with a warm washcloth. Extra tip: This mask works well for other skin types as well. For oily skin, add a couple drops of lime juice. For dry skin, mix in a couple tablespoons of honey.

    It's not a pel off mask (I hate those things) but this stuff by Philosophy that has vitamin C crystals that you mix with this stuff that has baking soda and peroxide in it. My skin's too sensitive for micro dermabrasion and this stuff works just as well and is a lot cheaper. It's like 60 bucks but the kit will last you years.
