Looking back on beauty trends that have exploded in the last couple of years, face masks are certainly one of the biggest, and our desire for at-home treatments shows no sign of slowing down.

But with so many different products now on the market, it can be hard to know where to start. Sheet or mud? Foaming or rubber? Here's what the experts had to say...

If you want to: moisturise dry skin

If you want to deeply cleanse your skin without drying it out, Elsie Rutterford, co-founder of BYBI Beauty, recommends mixing your own mask with honey. "BYBI Detox Dust is a 100 per cent natural, vegan-friendly blend of activated charcoal and kaolin clay that sucks out toxins and impurities," she says. "We like to add a spoonful of runny honey to the powder. Honey is a natural humectant, so as well as working with the Detox Dust to draw out nasties, it will then help retain moisture leaving skin hydrated and glowing."

If you want to: brighten dull skin

"Dry masks deliver beauty from the inside out," says Nannette de Gaspe, who pioneered the dry sheet mask technology with her eponymous luxury brand. Try this: Miss de Gaspe Brighten & Beam Brightening & Revitalizing Dry Mask, £30, Selfridges

If you want to: treat acne

"Finding the right face mask can help kill blemishes deep under the skin's surface before they become a problem, and minimise the redness and size of existing spots," says Lisa de-la-Plain, co-founder and beauty therapist at Beauty Flash. "Applying a thin layer of Dermalogica's Clear Start Blackhead Clearing Fizz Mask to a clean face, two to three times a week, will help combat breakouts. It's a unique mask that transforms into an active fizzing formula to clear pores and target blackheads. Try this: Dermalogica Clear Start Blackhead Clearing Fizz Mask, £19.50, BeautyFlash
