This is a nice mask @lmaster! Happy to hear you had a good experience with it. Love green tea! 🍵

[lmaster]

@itsfi it was so much fun! The concept is brilliant

[ShortErica]

Ooo I keep waiting to do this one and everyone seems to have a good time with it @lmaster. Darn those masks with farther away expirations 🤣 Nice grab out of the motm box

[lmaster]

I loved it! @ShortErica such a cool concept, I would like to get my hands on others from this line

[sonnydee]

I don't think I have a favorite mask type yet....i like the ones that fit nicely😁 This mask is 100% organic cotton. Fit?ok, lil small in the eye area & had to fight with above the lip Smell?....not lime, though I think they tried. Its 10th on the list. Towards the end I did smell it faintly. And I do smell it on my hands. Consistency?saturated nicely, but did have some drips when I took it out of the pouch. Once removed, serum soaked in nicely with only some tack Ease of use?no trouble. Would I  purchase/try again? I got a box of 10 so, yea, I would use again. My face did have a nice glow though even if the smell was disappointing

@sonnydee  Good ol' Yadah 10-packs! Haha! I feel like I've bought way too many 10-packs that I don't think I'll ever finish! I'm glad you saw some nice even though the scent wasn't the greatest! 😉

[missjeanie]

I've yet to try this one from Yaddah @sonnydee , bummer about the scent.. I would have been hoping for a lime scent that was nice and fresh as well.  Glad you found some brightening though!

[itsfi]

"I don't think I have a favorite mask type yet..." @sonnydee, perhaps you just haven't found your favorite yet. Sounds to me like more mask hauls are in order then. 😉😂 Maybe that's just me though? Sorry about the scent; nice to have a brightened complexion. I will have to set aside both of these beauties and give this sheet mask + lip balm duo a go.

[sonnydee]

Lol, i don't think i have the space for more mask hauls...i am stuffing them everywhere I can! i like the ones that fit like a second skin- bio cellulose but some of them even have had fit issues. 🤷 the balm makes up for the meh...scent of the mask! @itsfi 

[itsfi]

Yeah @sonnydee, the space thing does present a challenge . . . 🤔 Oh, the Fresh balms in the tin are fabulous!! ♥️😍

[lmaster]

Sorry to see you didn't get the scent your were hoping for @sonnydee 

[sonnydee]

Couldve been worse...couldve smelled bad & didn't perform well. @lmaster 

[ShortErica]

@sonnydee I gotta do a Yadah comparison with this line from the 10 packs I have 🤣 The cotton is fine and fit is okay but I think I'm getting spoiled with bio cellulose and other material for a favorite mask type. Not that I won't use what I have

[sonnydee]

Im in for the comparison @ShortErica I got a few 10 packs laying around!😉

[ShortErica]

You? Scooping up 10 packs of masks at maybe TJ or M..I don't believe it @sonnydee 🤣

[eshoe]

Mmmmm, and how is the lime-mint, @sonnydee? I have t tried a potted Fresh scrub. Curious how they compare to Lush.

[sonnydee]

you really smell the lime while in the pot, & putting it on. But once it's on you smell the mint. I don't know how they did it but it's magical!😍💚💚💚💚 @eshoe

[eshoe]

I sounds awesome and like I totally need it, @sonnydee. Mentally tagging it because I need to reign it in for a bit😉

The Creme Shop Hello Kitty Ready Set Glow Sheet Mask

This is a medium thickness cotton sheet mask that that had cute little pictures on it. It was saturated with a watery and shimmery serum that had a light perfumy-floral kind of smell. Not my favorite scent, but it was light enough it didn't bother me much. The fit was ok - just slightly too long at the chin, a tiny bit too wide at the temples and the space between the eyes was a little too wide. The adherence was good and it was comfortable to wear the 20 minutes I had it on. There wasn't any tackiness after removing and my face looked brighter and less dull, and my skin had a nice glow and felt soft and smooth. It also claims to provide hydration, but my skin actually felt just a smidge on the dry side.

I didn't like the scent and that it didn't live up to it's "intense hydration" claims, but I did love the results I got and the fact that there's snail in the ingredients is even better (half way down, but still, I wasn't expecting it at all😉🐌) I am happy I still have more to use up and might consider a repurchase if spotted at TJ Maxx/Marshall's again. 😃

Darn. I tried to post a picture of the mask and the ingredients, but the site wouldn't let me. I'll try again later. 🤨ETA: I even tried posting from the app and it still didn't work. 🤷🏻
ETA: Yay! It worked posting it from my MAC!

 

[missjeanie]

This entire line is just so cute isn't it @Shosh85 !  I hope you find more out and about!

[Shosh85]

@missjeanie  It really is so cute! The results are pretty decent, but honestly, the cuteness factor is what compels me to buy these! 😍
