I try to be as unobtrusive as I can, and usually most people don't even notice.
The mask can be messy but I have it down to a routine, now, and the ziplock bag helps, too. It helps if you can put a paper towel or something similar on your chest, to catch any drips. I have extremely dry skin so this routine really helps.
I recently switched to using Foreo, which is a little device that attaches a piece of mask (you buy them separately). I use those inflight for an intense hydration boost because it only takes 90 seconds for 1 round (you can do 2 for each mask, since there is a lot of leftover essence). It solved the "weird woman with a white sheet on her face" problem for me
The device itself was a little costly, but I managed to fit a great deal at my local duty free before one of my flights and grabbed it.
