I hear you @Shosh85 after finding some great deals on masks lately, I'm gonna wait for a sale to purchase a few of the pricier masks.
@Shosh85 you are not kidding with the creepiness, I just showed that cup to my husband and all I got was, “Why do they have to do that?” 😂 I’m loving that Missha mask, another one I am going to keep my eyes out for because it sounds sooooooooo lovely!
@eshoe I'm curious what the design team was thinking on that one 🤔😱
The Missha mask was great and I'm excited to try the other one I have! The cute packaging makes it even better 😉
@Shosh85 @Sounds like some super great masks. agree on the creepiness of that baby face. Lol would def prefer a “slurpee” over that
@GalPalVal17 Yeah, I feel the baby face was very unnecessary and I probably would've tried them all by now if it looked like a slurpee instead. 😂😆
@Shosh85, yay, two A masks for you!! 👍🏼👍🏼 The Missha Herb in Nude masks are great - feels like second skin! ♥️ Oh, you are so good with the Dr Jart rubber mask - you removed it in one piece!! Which “flavor” do you think you’ll pick up next?
OH! 😬😱 There’s that creepy lid! 😦
@itsfi These both really are great masks!
It's definitely satisfying when the peel-off-type masks come off in one peice – I think thickness is the key. 😉 The next one of these I want to pick up is the brightening one. I'm super surprised I liked it so much!😂
I really liked these masks as well! I remember buying a bunch when they came out this time last year and having a masking party! They were super creepy! Especially when trying to pose drinking from the spoon straws. @Shosh85
@heartsmyface What a great photo! A masking party would be awesome with these! 😍
@heartsmyfaceWhat a great photo! I don't think I've seen one where you have 'natural' hair colour. You really can pull off any look!
This is such a great photo @heartsmyface! Y'all look fab!
I was surprised too how much I liked the Dr Jart mask @Shosh85! I want to try the Brightening one next as well. I think I’ll pick up that one and the Soothing one at the next sale (and maybe another one of this Hydrating one too)! I think the Soothing one would be nice to have on hand, for use after a strong peel, or if my skin has a bad reaction to a mask or product.
@heartsmyface Ice Bear is pretty smart 🐻🤓😎
I didn’t end up doing skincare last night cause I was reorganizing my beautyroom and lost track of the time. Then Z wanted cuddles and that was the end for me. I woke up feeling particularily dry so I’m doing this Ole Henriksen Berry Nurturing Gel Mask. I realize it says lavender on the jar so I don’t know why I was expecting it to smell like berries. Update in 20minutes:) edit- alright! My thoughts: it a anice niceqeight gel that smells somewhat verbally with lavendaer mixed in. It’s a nice light fresh scent though. The instructions said to apply a thick layer and that always makes me hesitant. Like how thick? Cause I can plaster it on!! Tell me in mm so I don’t mess this up. I applied about a mm and left it for twenty minutes (longer by accident) The gel seemed to melt on my skin and felt oily by the time I was ready to wash into off. My skin feels gooood. It’s nice and bouncy and hydrated! Dang, I should be getting up and masking in the mornings more often! I would definitely give this an A+. It says to follow with my favorite ole moisturizer, so being the obedient girl I am, I threw on sheer transformation and a little truth serum. 😄
By looking at it I would assume it smells like berries also @heartsmyface
I haven't seen this one before @heartsmyface Sounds like a keeper for sure though, as are most Ole products I've tried! Such a great brand!
Ooooh this mask sounds right up my alley @heartsmyface 💗🤩 Love their Blackberry Enzyme mask, it has a lavender scent too. Haven’t seen this one before, sounds like you and your skin got some love😊
@heartsmyface Thanks for this review. I picked this up from TJ Maxx recently and haven’t used it yet. Was hoping it was great because I’ve had great results/experiences with the OH line. Now I look forward to trying this out.
Oooh, so happy to hear your thoughts on this one @heartsmyface! 😊 It sounds wonderful! 💕 Perfect follow up to late night organization and cuddles with the kiddo!! I have the OH waiting to be used once I get through the masks that are already open. 😆
