✅ VIDEO SUMMARY
To add the ability to use masks on layer style effects in Adobe Photoshop, first open the Layer Style Options window for the layer you want to use. Then go to the tab that reads "Blending Options". Finally, make sure there is a tick next to the option that says "Layer Mask Hides Effects". Now your mask will work on the layer effects attributed to that layer!
