MarchMarch Madness - Competition is in the air! Find a $ dupe of a $$$ mask that is share-worthy? Or find a dupe that works even better than the original? Details, please!
AprilSpring Fling - Baskets and bouquets, showers of much-anticipated rain...this month's focus is herbal and floral sensory delights.
MayDew Drops - May Day lore says to wash your face in the dew you collect in the morning of the first day of May for radiant skin. This month is for absorbing all of that good-for-you H2O.

P is for Pumpkin (which I guess also makes me hungry 

 

Spoiler
I absolutely love the skinfood easy dressing masks - they make me feel like a mummy lol. I did review one before but I donโ€™t think it was pumpkin.

Instead of a normal sheet mask itโ€™s strips of gauze but itโ€™s enough to well and fully cover your face. They are super moldable so youโ€™re easily able to create the perfect shape for you! They donโ€™t stick super well though, itโ€™s definitely a laying down mask. 

my skin always feels moderately hydrated after use and itโ€™s non tacky . There is no strong scent, it does not smell like pumpkin

Sounds very interactive, @Kim888 - with maybe a bit of patience to go on the side ๐Ÿค” I have never seen a mask like this, but love guaze masks as well. Looks like they are on sale right now, and Fig Jelly? Parsley Water? I might have to make a small order ๐Ÿ˜‰

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888  Those strips look pretty interesting! I think I've tried something similar, but there weren't enough strips to really cover your whole face. 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@PrettyPaint @This was definitely more than enough to cover my whole face and a little neck as well! 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888  Haven't tried a mask like this one before... sounds fun! A pumpkin scent would've been a nice bonus, but I'm glad the results turned out decent ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

That sounds really interesting @Kim888 

I've neve seen a mask like that, where you do yourself up in straps or gauze. Very neat!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

I've not tried a mask like this, but dang it pumpkin scent!! Where are you?? Lol @Kim888 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

I haven't used a sheet mask for quite a while, so this was a nice treat. 

 

I found a mask for the multi-step theme:

 

Vitamasques Super Berry Probiotic Repair 3 Step Facial.

There are three steps: a cleanser, a sheet mask, and a moisturizer.

 

The moisturizer foamed up a bit and was nice and gentle.

 

The sheet mask, while slightly large, was very comfortable to wear. I think I detected a slightly fruity scent, but it was pretty faint. There was plenty of serum, and it advertises that it contains berry extracts, probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics. I haven't done any research on the use of topical probiotics, but my skin did feel nice and soft after removing it.

 

The final step was a probiotic repair moisturizer. I found it nicely hydrating. I sometimes have issues with my foundation pilling up after using this many products, but I actually didn't have any trouble! My skin feels nice and soft, and I would definitely repurchase.

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@PrettyPaint I feel like we are on the same mask wavelength - I just recently tried this one as well ๐Ÿ˜Š

 

Impressive that it did not cause any pilling under your makeup. I am always iffy on masking before makeup with a new-to-me mask, so I appreciate this info for future use. I like that I can pick this up on a Target run, too, ha ha!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@eshoe I feel like I have been getting a lot of target masks these days. If you try it in the morning, I hope you don't have any issues with pilling. I'm not really sure all the variables that factor in (and whether foundation type/brand) plays a role)! 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Itโ€™s not hard to toss one in your basket on the way to pick up whatever you are actually there for, @PrettyPaint ๐Ÿ˜ 

 

AM masking is a toughie. I am pretty hesitant to try one prior to makeup application unless I have done it in the past with no issues. I will keep this one in mind for the next time I am up for it!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@PrettyPaint great mask to hit the theme!

That is a fun 3 step routine in a nice little package ๐Ÿ˜„ that's awesome ๐Ÿ‘Œ 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@CynthieLu It would be a nice mask to take on a trip/vacation! ๐Ÿ™‚

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Ahhh, Vitamasques does do some great sheet masks @PrettyPaint! ๐Ÿ˜ The slight fruity scent on this one sounds refreshing!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@itsfi  I tend to like this brand, and it was definitely a nice mask for spring! 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Do you have a favorite mask from the brand @PrettyPaint?

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@itsfi  Good question! Honestly, I'm terrible at keeping track. I think I've had pretty positive feelings about all of the ones I've tried (they seem to mostly be fruity ones). If my memory serves me correctly, I think there was a watermelon one that I really liked. I'd need to try it again to make sure, though!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@PrettyPaint ohhhh now this sounds fabulous!! And a fruity scent ๐Ÿ™Œ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@lmaster I really enjoyed it, though especially because I hadnโ€™t used a mask in so long and have missed it! 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@PrettyPaint  Oh, I remember liking this one! Glad to hear you enjoyed it too! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2023 Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Shosh85  Iโ€™m glad you also enjoyed it. I think itโ€™s definitely worth a repurchase!
