Halloween is right around the corner, and we know you must have some really unique costumes and makeup planned for this year. Halloween is that time of year where you can go all-out and experiment with all sorts of different looks whether they are fun & vibrant or bloody & scary, but you should be aware of the fact that heavy costume makeup can mess with your skin and cause break-outs.
We absolutely love Halloween and we would never miss out just to protect our skin. That is why, we pulled together a few tips for how you can avoid a terrifying skin experience this Halloween. Incorporating face masks into your routine is always a good idea, but specific masks should be used in this case. Here is what you need to keep an eye out for during Halloween party season.
Create the perfect canvas
Exfoliate your face for a smooth and even base before applying makeup with our Exfoliating Face Mask. This will help to ensure that your skin is free of flakes and bumps. A lot of Halloween makeup is not always of the best quality, especially when you’re just picking it up at your local party store. Therefore it’s important to have as smooth of a base as possible so that your makeup looks nice and even.
Prevent breakouts
Clogged pores and pesky breakouts are never ideal, especially as we are headed into the holiday party season. Unfortunately after wearing thick, goopy Halloween makeup, your skin can feel suffocated and cause your skin to become congested. So make sure to thoroughly clean your skin from all make-up and then apply our nügg Black Charcoal Detox Face Mask to cleanse your pores and intensely purge your skin of impurities without drying out your skin. This is the best face mask to help remove blackheads as well as give you an effective face detox.
Calm any irritation
Using prosthetics or glitter to enhance your Halloween costume? These embellishments, although fun to wear, can cause irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin. To fight back, make sure to apply the nügg Hydrating Face Mask in the evening after removing your make-up to moisturize and replenish your skin that can become dry from heavy make-up. This is the best face mask for dry skin, making it a must-have especially in the cold months.
The Camellia Seed extracts and Aloe Juice base in this moisturizing powerhouse will help to bring some relief back to your skin. You can even apply this moisturizing mask before bed, and leave a thin layer on overnight for a deeply nourishing sleep-mask experience.
Maintain a glow
Along with the fun and elaborate costumes, comes late nights with lots of partying and candy eating. With the increased intake of sugary treats on Halloween and the lack of sleep, your skin can suffer. To balance out your tired face, drink a lot of water and use the nügg Revitalizing Face Mask in the morning after Halloween to give your skin a boost. With cooling Peppermint, this mask will instantly give your skin a refreshed look & feel that is much needed after whatever your Halloween festivities may entail.
Here at nügg The Face Mask Authority, we have the best face masks to care for your skin, and we have just what you need to keep your skin in check during the Halloween season. So be prepared and don’t forget to include nügg face masks in your skin care regime, and have all of the fun this year. Happy Halloween!

Although the weather has been a bit up and down recently, fall is 100% on it’s way and as temperature’s drop, your skin is going to see some changes. It’s time to add a selection of the best skin care products into your face care kit to help your skin transition into fall. Face masks should be staples in your weekly skin care regime and you should mask at least twice a week as the seasons change.
Skin care in fall should be all about dry skin exfoliation, moisturizing and gentle cleansing. The sudden decrease in humidity makes the air dry and can quickly pull the moisture out of your skin. That gets even worse as indoor heat goes on which causes moisture levels to drop even further. As a result, your skin and lips become dry (even if you don’t immediately notice it) and with that the dewiness and glow of summer quickly disappear. In addition, dry and dead skin cells often pile up during summer which puts you at risk for breakouts and a tired, dull look.
Using a face mask at least twice a week can help to quickly turn your tired face into a clear and smooth complexion. What your skin needs are the best face masks to give your skin exactly what it needs this season. To help you pick the right masks, here are our must-have masking tips for fall:
1. Boost hydration levels – What you don’t want in fall (or any season) is dry skin because it makes your skin dull, your make-up caky, and it accelerates your skin’s aging process. Our Deep Hydration Face Mask is the best face mask for dry skin! You will immediately notice an increase of hydration that helps bring your skin to life and the mask will help erase any dry spots or flakes you might have.
One of our favorite tips with this mask is to use it overnight as a deeply hydrating sleep mask. All you have to do is apply mask as you normally would, let it sit for 10 minutes before wiping off the excess product. Leave a thin layer on overnight and let the moisturizing mask do it’s work while you sleep. Similar to this, you can also do this in the morning. Leave the thin layer on before makeup application for a dewy, smooth look all day long.
2. Exfoliate twice a week – You NEED to exfoliate your face on a regular basis for a radiant and hydrated complexion and to avoid clogged pores which can result in unwanted blackheads and whiteheads. Our Exfoliating Face Mask should be a staple in your fall skincare routine as it will exfoliate dry skin bits and flakes away that have built up over the summer and reveal a radiant complexion while helping prevent dirt & bacteria from being trapped in your pores. It will also help your other skin care products penetrate better into the skin which is important to keep your skin well nourished and supple in colder weather.
3. Turn towards more gentle cleansers – With colder weather comes dryness, and with dryness can come skin sensitivity, which means you need to be careful when choosing the right cleansing face mask for clear skin. Do NOT pick a mask that claims to shrink your pores but also strips your skin of moisture to make it feel tight and deprived. Find balance by using a gentle cleanser and gentle face masks. Our Deep Cleansing Face Mask is the best face mask for clear skin when your skin is dry and sensitive. It will give you a deep cleanse while at the same time giving your skin a dose of healthy moisture and soothing benefits. Remember to never sacrifice hydration for clear skin!
4. Don’t forget your feet and hands – After months of wearing strappy sandals, walking around barefoot and just generally being on your feet more, you may notice that you need a serious foot treatment. Give yourself a pedicure at home with our Revitalizing Face Mask. Start off by using a callus remover to get rid of the hard bits and then apply our Revitalizing Face Mask evenly to both feet in a thick layer. Cover them with a plastic bag and let the mask sit for 15 to 30 minutes before washing off. The Peppermint and Menthol in our Revitalizing Mask will refresh your feet, while the Flaxseed Oil and Aloe Juice base will hydrate and soften the dry spots. Alternatively, you can put socks over the mask and leave it on while you sleep for a nourishing treatment overnight. Apply any excess product to your hands for a refreshing & hydrating treatment there as well.
Make sure to get these face masks into your face care kit and you’ll have a healthy and radiant complexion all season long!

From Lanvin to Isabel Marant, Saint Laurent to Giambattista Valli, all throughout Spring and Summer we’ve seen the natural, minimalist beauty look make its mark and cement its place in fashion history and catwalks all over the globe. The focus of this signature look has been on clear, beautiful skin, and while this will still be the trend come Fall, we can expect it to evolve into something a bit more luxe and sophisticated.
Don’t worry, this doesn’t mean recreating the new look will be totally out of your reach... it’s going to be all about the finishing touches. Impeccably groomed brows, sky-high lashes, and gorgeous radiant skin are all part of amping up the understated look of seasons past.
Whether you’re a wash ‘n go kinda girl, frequent traveller, beach bum, or city girl, the minimalist look starts the same for everyone… effortlessly glowing skin. But you know as well as we do, this doesn’t come overnight, despite what you may see from the “I woke up like this” Instagram posts.
To help you achieve the fresh face beauty you’re after, try these three skincare tips and you’ll be well on your way!
Get A Fresh, Dewy Glow Overnight
You can’t have dewy skin if your skin isn’t properly hydrated which is why pampering yourself with our Deep Hydrating Face Mask is the best way to achieving plump, supple skin! Whether you live in the dry desert of Arizona or are exposed to the windy, cold Alaska air, proper hydration is key.
Your skin will love the natural moisturizing and restorative power of aloe which has been used for thousands of years and is proven to be effective in treating an array of skin conditions from dry skin and eczema to wrinkles and dark spots. The mask also contains camellia seed oil and spirulina extract which help to increase your skin’s moisture levels instantly, but also overtime. Your skin will feel relief from tight, flakiness.
The best part about this double duty mask is that it can be applied overnight for an easy skin boost! After cleansing, apply a thin layer of our Hydrating Mask as you would your moisturizer and let the mask sink into your skin while you sleep. Tape up the pod to keep the remaining product fresh & effective. Use within two days for best results.
Mask For Clean, Matte Skin
What is one thing we all have in common when it comes to skincare? We all want clear complexion of course!
With all the environmental stressors around us like air pollution and impurities, it’s no wonder our skin can sometimes appear dull. Instead of turning to chemical laden products, a better way to get your skin back to being radiant and healthy is with the natural wonder of charcoal. Very much a miracle ingredient, charcoal draws out impurities by bringing dirt to the skin’s surface and promptly sweeps it away.
Unlike many charcoal face masks on the market, our Charcoal Skin Detox Mask is non-drying. Rather than completely stripping your skin of the natural oils it needs to stay healthy & balanced, it takes away the excess oil and purges the skin of impurities while giving back to your skin with nourishing aloe juice and oatmeal. This leaves you with soft, clean & matte skin and a visible reduction in pore size.
Anyone with normal, dry, or combination skin will benefit from our Charcoal Skin Detox Mask, get yours today!
Hydrate & Cool Throughout The Day
Research shows that an increase in our skin’s temperature equates to an increase in pore clogging sebum. This of course means oily skin, pimples, and loss of collagen… everything you do not want. By hydrating your face throughout the day you not only nourish your skin, you instantly cool it. Win, win!
You can create your own cooling & hydrating toner with our Revitalizing mask.
DIY Hydrating Toner:
1 teaspoon Revitalizing Face Mask
⅓ cup distilled water
4 ounce spray bottle
Shake well, then spray generously onto a cotton pad. Swipe across the face throughout the day as needed. Can also be used morning and night after cleansing, before applying moisturizer.

One of the great things about living in the States is that there is no shortage to what you can do or where you can go during summer. Whether majestic national parks, sweeping mountains, beach trips or breathtaking canyons, there is something for all. No matter where you go and how long you plan to stay, it is important that you pack with great care. Weather appropriate clothes, footwear, sunscreen, insect repellants if you plan to camp out – you know the drill. If you have kids, well, it gets even more difficult (you don’t want to leave behind your daughter’s favorite toy!!).
And what about your makeup? Sunscreen, foundation, powder, primer, eyeliner, lipstick – you do want to look your best after all. However, you just might be making things a little difficult for your skin. You see makeup tends to clog pores and suffocate your skin, especially when you are traveling. Just like you need to time to adjust and get into the groove in a new place, so does your skin; the sun, the humidity levels, the temperature – all of these affect your skin. What your skin needs at this point is a little TLC, which sadly makeup cannot provide; makeup just adds on to the stress your skin is already under. Plus you might see breakouts, rashes due to sun exposure, dry patches- the list is endless.
The best way to look and feel your best when traveling is to focus on skincare first – less makeup and more care. All you need is a couple of nügg face mask pods. Made with over 90% natural or naturally derived ingredients, nügg facial masks are gentle, yet effective and suit all skin types. We have something for all skin types and skin needs – for deep cleansing, rejuvenation, intense hydration, exfoliation and more. And what’s even better is that each face mask comes in a single use pod making it perfect for packing in your carry-on; not only is it handy, your product is also kept fresh and uncontaminated at all times. You can be sure of having glowing, healthy skin at all times when you have nügg facial masks at hand.
Travel light this summer. Instead of a whole box of makeup and skincare products, all you need to carry are a few tiny pods of the nügg face masks best suited for your skin. You’ll feel great wearing less makeup and your skin will thank you!
