Yes, face masks are an Instagram photo opp and an excuse to watch another episode of Mindhunter on Netflix as you wear one, but the treatments will actually help improve whatever skincare issue you're currently hung up on.

If fine lines and wrinkle are stressing you out, a smoothing, firming formula will do just the trick. While these treatments won't give your complexion a permanent Benjamin Button effect, they will give you instant gratification unlike a serum or cream, which don't give visible results right away, but do eventually improve texture over time with continued use.

From sheet to the peel-off variety, we've rounded up the most effective anti-aging face masks to try after you cancel your plans tonight.
