NEW!!! Got an idea for next year's challenge? Let me know! Was there a challenge you'd rather not repeat? Share below, so we can start building the 2021 schedule:
Sounds like a winning set of skincare! And a cute mask to boot! 😊🐯
I have one gifted to me I will have to pull out one of these days.
@l8totheparty I really love all three of these and I love that the mask is both fun and effective! I hope you end up liking the mask as well! 😃🐯
Your selfies are my favourite @Shosh85 !! I bypassed a few boxes of these telling myself I have too many Masks, must cut back... but maybe I’ll need to grab some. I do have one to try from the masks on the move! You’re convincing me to buy before I try lol!
Awe, thanks, @missjeanie!! I kinda wish there was more than 3 in a box! If I run into more I'll probably pick 'em up 😉😃
@lmaster Being that there's only 3 in a package, I'm kinda wishing I had bought more!
OMG. So I need to get back on to masking but especially this week! I returned with a cold (thanks airplane!) from my work trip and have been recouping and forgot to see what this week was. Gross week! I can't miss this! Anyone who sent me a gross mask, please remind me because I need to try some. I'll have to look at my spreadsheet too. Thanks!
@ShortErica I sent you the zebra Faceshop one that has horse oil in it 😉🦓🐴
I hope you're feeling better soon!
I wish the sickness would disappear. I'm much better but it's just lingering in an annoying state of not healthy. Eh, I'll get there. I did the mask @Shosh85 and have to post. It was perfect before enjoying Zoodunit - I'll explain in my review. 😉
So I was hoping to jump aboard the masking train last week since I was on a work trip and should have free time at the hotel in the evenings. I packed 4 and only used one mask that was sent to me from @faeriegirl
My face:
I remember enjoying the other salad mask I used - I think it was blueberry. This one was also impressive. The fit was good and had a nice material. I'm glad it did not smell like tomatoes though I enjoy eating them. I'd say generic mask scent. I wore this 40 minutes vs. the recommended 15-20. It was still very wet when I took it off. My skin looked brighter. I should have felt it more to see if it was softer like the package claimed. I didn't notice any tackiness. Grade: A. I have the carrot one faeriegirl sent me as well so I have a pretty high expectation for it. Thanks for sending these my way! 🙂
I hope you managed to enjoy some down time on your trip even if you weren’t masking @ShortErica . A cold is a pretty crappy souvenir though. I keep saying I need to get back to these salad masks!!! Glad you loved em!
Salad masks have been good to me @missjeanie. Have you enjoyed them too?
@ShortErica I have enjoyed a few. I think I went through one pack at the beginning of the year and I have one pack open now.... and a few backups lol. I liked them enough to buy multiple packs. Must stop doing that lol
Gotta fill that 2nd suitcase @missjeanie! 😉
@ShortErica I'm just getting started on these salad masks, but it seems they've been working out well for everyone! I have planned to do this one this week! I'm happy it's an A mask for you! 🍅😃
I'll be curious which one you pick @Shosh85! Off to read the masking I've missed! 🙂
Thanks @lmaster. I feel like I'm at a plateau..not feeling 100% but past being miserable. 🙂
My overnight mask was inspired by the lovely @eshoe for gross week 🙂
This is the same brand but different to the donkey milk one I tried. Sounds like this version was good too @GalPalVal17
This is your second one @GalPalVal17? I’m impressed-I’m one and done lol
