My Beauty Diary Aloe Vera and Black Pearl sheet masks are both staples for me. The Aloe Vera mask is soothing and helps to calm down my easily irritated skin whilst also being fairly hydrating. The Black Pearl mask has a slight brightening effect and definitely makes my skin look tighter and plumper after using it (although the effect is short-lived).
I Dew Care's coconut water mask is soothing and hydrating, but really does smell strongly of coconut (which I don't mind but it makes my husband gag) and kind of made me feel like I'd rubbed a Bounty bar all over my face.
The Super Aqua Cell Renew Snail Hydro-Gel Mask from MISSHA came in two pieces and was quite possibly the slimiest mask I have ever used, but actually felt pretty nice on my face and stayed in place well. I think it did a pretty good job of plumping my skin and I enjoyed using it.
Tarte's Drink of H2O Hydrating Boost Moisturizer (Rainforest of the Sea) is not something that I would ever use as a regular moisturiser because it does have a slightly sticky tacky feeling that persists for about an hour after application. However, I have found that it is a wonderful follow-up to using sheet masks when you need to moisturise but your skin is still in the process of absorbing the serum.

Look at all those masks! I’ve liked the couple of My Beauty Diary sheet masks that I’ve tried so far. 👍🏼

[sockmagnet]

@itsfi My Beauty Diary masks are pretty nice, but I mostly favour them as a staple just because the fit of them is so awesome for my face.

[itsfi]

@sockmagnet if you can find a good fitting mask, definitely keep those on hand. I’ve gotten good at quickly making adjustments to my sheet masks. I’m getting a lot of value from my mini scissors! 😂

@sockmagnet so cute! kitty ❤️❤️ nice job getting those masks in

[missjeanie]

Great masking @sockmagnet !

I love the DE hydra serum too and also tried it as a deluxe. It wish it wasn't so gosh darn pricey!

@jen81 I literally just used the korres for the first time the other day, and loved it so much I bought the set!!

[itsfi]

Love those Sephora pearl eye masks @jen81! How is the texture on the Colorscience sunscreen - it is more liquid-y or does it have a cream consistency to it?

[jen81]

@itsfi @It’s a liquid 

[itsfi]

Thank you @jen81! 🙂 I may have to look into giving it a try when I've used up my current SPF.

[RebeccaBT]

@jen81 We have a lot of the same empties this month! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Best,

My January empties/declutters. I'm slowing getting through my stash.

@Lazybeautybeast This is inspiring!  I love how many deluxe samples you've used up!

[RebeccaBT]

@Lazybeautybeast WOW, so many goodies! You definitely got through alot of products! 

Best,

Rebecca

[GalPalVal17]

@Lazybeautybeast Wow you were able to get through a lot. Nice!

[lmaster]

good job! @Lazybeautybeast did you like the Clinique moisturizer?

[Lazybeautybeast]

It was just okay, in my opinion @lmaster . It wasn't moisturizing enough for me (but it is winter) so I had to following it with another moisturizer. I did notice some extra hydration when I used it this way.
