Thanks @lmaster! Lots of love with this mask session - masking, tea, lip balm. ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
@itsfi Love the tea theme! I have a couple more samples of the Fresh mask to use up and after that I think I'll be buying the FS as well โ (unless of course, I happen find more DS/samples, like you said!๐) I really enjoyed that mask too, and the texture is so nice! Happy to hear you love it too! ๐
Donโt you love that thereโs a good likelihood that there will be a DS of the Fresh Black Tea mask @Shosh85? ๐ I get giddy whenever I see it pop up as a gwp or promo! โบ๏ธ This Fresh mask and the Farmacy Honey Potion are two that I would happily pick up a FS, but there seems to be a DS available before I need to get a FS. No complaints with that at all! ๐
Wait...I did not know that about the bkr cap @itsfi! Lol just tried it and my bottle it too small (I have the mid-size, I think the 500ml). My DS fits but wonโt close, too funny. What a brilliant idea, my beverage consumption definitely fuels my balm use. Thank you for the tip, as always!
Yeah, as with most things @eshoe, I found out about it by stumbling upon it on the Sephora website. ๐ Itโs either that or I learn from BIC. Thereโs a special cap that holds the full size bkr balm; the cap fits the 250 and 500 mL bkr bottles.
Ok so now I need to buy the FS balm @itsfi ๐ so excited to put this little tidbit of info into action๐๐ผ
The FS and the special cap for it @eshoe! But then, youโll be able to hydrate from the inside and keep your lips moisturized with just a bkr bottle! ๐๐๐
Now, if only they can find a way for me to quickly and easily reapply sunblock throughout the day, preferably with a mineral sunblock....
Yes that is a struggle, @itsfi! Iโve taken to wearing a hat, I have an SPF powder with attached brush that I like, Iโm just a little leery at how effective and long-lasting it is๐ค
What a peaceful, perfect masking session @itsfi ๐ I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the tea โบ๐
Thank you @bakeamuffin! ๐ฅฐ๐ค The tea ๐ต was so nice - very thoughtful of you and it was perfect. ๐๐ผ I was up a little earlier than usual so I decided to make a pot of tea and enjoy a little quiet time before multi-tasking. So nice.
@itsfi the bkr balm is great! did you know it comes in tinted versions on their website!?
They have full sizes of the tinted balms on their website @Kim888?!! ๐ Ohhhhh. This could be dangerous. A good kind of dangerous but still... hahaha! ๐๐คฃ๐ I have a trio of DS balms - one untinted and 2 tinted that I picked up from Beautylish. Actually, I have them coming soon; they were lost in transit so they sent out another set which I should get by the time Iโm back near the end of the month. Good to know if I like the tinted ones I can get full sizes. ๐
New Survey is up!
Sunday night's masking included Neogen, the company that makes my go-to cotton mask, The Oozoo's Capsule Rose Petal Mask.
Thank you @lmaster I had no idea, although I did see a 12-pack of Leaders ampoules online at Costco!
@eshoe Oooh! This mask sounds wonderful! I've liked the couple of Sur Medic masks I've tried so far and a propolis one makes it that much more enticing! Thanks for your review on this โ I'll definitely be looking this one up! ๐๐
Iโm so glad to know there are more from this line, @Shosh85! Iโm curious how similar they will be to this one ๐ค
Ooooh, love propolis!! ๐๐ฏ๐ Sounds like a wonderful mask @eshoe! I have the hyaluronic acid version from the line and didnโt know until now that there was a propolis one. ๐
Oooh I am going to have to try the HA one, @itsfi, thanks for the heads up!
I didnโt know that Neogen made the OOZOO masks @eshoe ! The Sur+Medic Mask sounds like a must have for anyone with dry skin! Another one to add to my list! Glad that you enjoyed this mask but Iโm sorry that you eventually had to remove it! ๐
