Thank you @Aaliaa for starting this thread, and giving us a place to share our love for masks💗

[LilaMJ]

OMG this is amazing, I’ll have to check it out!! Thank you for sharing @itsfi ! ❤️ 

[itsfi]

It’s such a great mask for dry or very dry skin, or during the cold winter @LilaMJ. 👍🏼 

[lmaster]

@itsfi looks like I'll have quite a few rec's to pick up

[itsfi]

Lol, the lists just get longer, don’t they @lmaster? 😆 

[CynthieLu]

Yeahy @itsfi masks that's effects last are a magical unicorn!

So happy to hear about your love of this one! 💕 

[itsfi]

Thank you @CynthieLu! This one would slot nicely into the “new discoveries” and “favorite masks of all time” themes at the end of the month. ♥️

@itsfi  This one sounds amazing!!

[itsfi]

It was so good @ather; just what my skin needed. 😊 I like the ingredients list on this mask and it's hard to argue against a mask that soothes, hydrates and moisturizes the skin. Especially with winter dryness being a thing, this was perfect!

[Cissy63]

@itsfi  This sounds heavenly 😀

[itsfi]

It was @Cissy63! It checked off so many boxes in terms of what I like in sheet masks. I wasn't sure I was doing the right thing picking up a pack of 5 masks that I'd never tried before but it turned out to be a good idea! 💡

[CookieGirl1]

I never think about sheet masks as being "creamy", @itsfi, but I'm intrigued...

[itsfi]

@CookieGirl1, there are a few sheet masks I’ve used that have a richer serum, some just slightly more dense than your traditional essence and others more cream like. This one falls somewhere  in between. Great for this time of year. 👍🏼 

[quspork]

This sounds absolutely lovely, @itsfi!

[itsfi]

My skin loved everything about this mask @quspork! 😍

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  Ooooh, this one sounds amazing! Hard to beat those results! 🙌 I've never heard of this mask/brand, but you've definitely piqued my interest! 😃

[itsfi]

This mask was my intro to the brand @Shosh85 and what a great intro! 🥰 My skin really loved the feel and results of this mask. It left it feeling hydrated and moisturized which my skin really needs when it’s cold out. 👍🏼 

[Kim888]

Wow that sounds amazing @itsfi !!! Milky essence is my favorite consistency for mask serums - glad to hear this was super hydrating ! 

[itsfi]

@Kim888, my skin loves the masks with the milky essences as well. Just so good for nourishing the skin. ❤️ Especially love ceramides this time of the year - keeps that skin barrier healthy and happy! 

[Shosh85]

V is for VT

@itsfi recently talked about this brand in a recent post of hers and it reminded me I needed to finally try this one! 😃

VT Cosmetics Cica Moisture Mask

Material:

Thin cotton

Serum:

I little sudsy, watery and just a bit drippy

Scent:

Sort of leafy and bark-y. It wasn't too strong, but I could smell it the whole time the mask was on

Fit:

Just a smidge too long at the chin and a tiny bit too wide at the forehead

Wear Time:

Half hour

Tack:

Very light and only stuck around for a couple minutes

Results:

Soft and smooth skin that was nicely moisturized and hydrated. My skin tone looked more even.

Repurchase?

Yes, I really enjoyed the results from this one and love all the good ingredients!

[lmaster]

Leafy and barky 🤣 @Shosh85 yep I can imagine that,, glad you love it

[eshoe]

Your description of the scent in this one is interesting @Shosh85. It reminds me of what a pile of fall leaves smell like. Not sure that would make a great scent for a face mask, but the ingredients seem like they certainly make up for it 😁
