Mask of the Week Misc. Info & Previous Year's Links:

To Post:
Each week features a different theme, as well as a letter of the alphabet for coming up with new masking ideas. 

Please include the brand and name of the mask you are trying out, as well as a photo if possible. Any other details are greatly appreciated, including scent, if it's an exfoliating mask (include acid info if known), your overall experience, and whether or not you would repurchase. Don't forget to include a grade (thanks to @ShortErica for the idea) to help others along the way.

Most importantly, have fun and merry masking!

Mask Hacks - Here are a few to get started thanks to our lovely BIC-ers, a big thank you for these fabulous ideas!

Lay sheet masks flat prior to use so the serum is more evenly distributed

keana1

Use a Makeup Eraser to remove wash-off masks

I just love these,,I may hoard them @ather but now is a perfect time to use some

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Yes, this is one of the ones I have for this week @lmaster! I saw your other Whole Foods one (reading most recent first) and was like hmm..I have some set out but I don't remember the names but this one I recognize. Yay! It sounds wonderful. I'm excited for it!

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@ShortErica can't wait to see your review!!

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

This is such a great mask, @lmaster! Beautiful masking:)

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Love it!! Thank you @eshoe you sweetie pie

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@lmaster  I don't think I've heard of anyone not liking a Whole Foods mask! Happy to hear this one turned out great! 😃

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@Shosh85 it's going to be a whole foods week! A few I have expire in April, so perfect timing to use them 😉

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@lmaster   Ouhhhh I’ll have to keep my eye open for this one!  

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

You would love this one @heartsmyface the material is perfect and I know you like these types

BioBelle #Dreamskin Sheet Mask

This is a thin tencel sheet mask that was saturated with plenty of serum and had a clean and fresh kind of scent. The fit was great and was just a little too long at the chin/jawline. I kept it on for about a half hour. When I removed it my face looked slightly brighter, felt moisturized and hydrated and had a nice glow. The serum leftover absorbed quickly and wasn't sticky or tacky at all.

I really enjoyed the results of this one and love the material. This one will definitely be a repurchase sometime in the near future.
