The face mask is sort of the unsung hero of skincare routines. While it's one of the hardest-working products -- it can unclog pores , add hydration , smooth fine lines and soften irritation -- it tends to fall by the wayside when it comes to regular use. Some weeks we're good about it, others ... just forget about it. But it's time to remake the case for the face mask , especially those of the cloth variety.

Unlike the formulas that come in jars, these are individually wrapped. The soaking wet cloths, enhanced with everything from collagen to hyaluronic acid, effectively impart nutrients that your your skin will soak right up. You might look like Jason for about 20 minutes, but we swear your glowing face will thank you.

And if you need further encouragement: Demi Moore 's a fan of hydration cloth masks, and Cate Blanchett swears by them, too. The Australian actress once admitted to wearing them in public . "I've actually worn it on the freeway in Los Angeles, driving my kids to school, and I always make sure I wear one on the plane!"

We can't promise skin like Demi or Cate, but you can expect seriously glowing skin in about half an hour.
