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

@missjeanie  I'm with ya, I think it'd be nice if you could get mini tubes of the PTR masks sold individually! My favorites are the pumpkin and Irish mud as well!

I really like Whole Foods masks - with the exception of their foil masks. I'm just not a big fan of the foil material in general. Have you tried any other masks from WF? Their biocellulose masks are my favorite so far. 😉

[missjeanie]

@Shosh85 This was my first whole food mask.  I think I have another though.  I'm going to see if I can find it for tonight. 

[lmaster]

@Shosh85 @missjeanie I agree as well, the smaller tubes would be so beneficial!!

[missjeanie]

Right... @lmaster these 5 oz jars are killing me! lol

[itsfi]

Ahhh, DE Babyfacial - smooth, baby-soft  skin in a bottle @missjeanie! 💖 Sorry to hear the other masks didn’t meet your expectations. The Giselle Honey one sounded so promising. No honey scent though; what’s up with that?!! But as I think about it, I don’t recall a biocellulose mask I’ve used as being scented. Hmmm... 🤔 

[missjeanie]

Well now that you bring it up @itsfi ... I'm not sure I remember any biocellulose being scented either.  I'll have to keep a nose out for that going forward!

[itsfi]

Hahaha! Our sniffers are on the ready @missjeanie!

[ather]

@missjeanie  I agree I really like the babyfacial mask as well. I’m red and stingy for like 8 hours after I use it. By morning I’m usually good by morning. My friend grabbed my bottle when she was state side way before covid. I’ll be sad when my bottle runs out too!! (I used babyfacial Tuesday night this week and last night I used Farmacy honeymoon glow and I reacted bad. I think I need to space things out after I use it 😂 I was a tomato 🍅)

[missjeanie]

Oh no... @ather I used Honeymoon Glow for two bottles worth and found that my skin built up a tolerance, but I could see how the two used so close together could be bad news bears!  Hope it clears up soon.  

Looks like there will be a couple of Canadians running out of Babyfacial at some point.  I sure hope things clear up and we can travel south again soon.

[ather]

@missjeanie  Interesting I wouldn’t have thought it would have caused an issue. I’ll have to try it again and see if I have any problems. I’ll try it far apart from my babyfacial this time. Have you tried prism? The herbavore similarity to babyfacial? That may be my next one I try if I’m not able to get more babyfacial!!

[missjeanie]

No @ather I haven't tried the prism.  I haven't had an Herbivore product since the blue tansy mask.  I'm heading over to check it out though... I love me some exfoliation and it looks like we won't be heading into the US anytime right away. 

[ather]

@missjeanie  I’m not super close to state side so I researched a bit to see what would be close and that’s what I found. And my friend who picked it up for me probably won’t be going to the states any time soon. If you try it let me know how it goes!

[missjeanie]

@ather Im crazy close, so I never really thought too much about it, but after having looked at the Prism, I’m game to give it a shot! I’ve added it to my sale list!  

this is the view I have across the parking lot from my office window. The other side of the river is the states.

[ather]

@missjeanie  Omg wow. So close. Yet so far right! I can’t wait for this covid to be over!! I thought about buying the prism during the sale too!! Hopefully things calm down soon so you can go back across!

So Last week I totally stole @Shosh85 masking idea. G and T for The Creme Shop Gudetama Tighter N Brighter mask.

I did cut the philtrum area off as that area is very sensitive to citrus. The mask was very cooling on and I’m hoping for some help with my acne on my chin. It is a very cute mask. I left it on for about 12 minutes. My face felt nicely hydrated afterwards.

 

[lmaster]

@emaisgr8 love that egg!

[quspork]

Gudetama! I always love seeing the lazy egg pop up, @emaisgr8. Glad this one worked out nicely for you. 

[Shosh85]

@emaisgr8  Gudetama is just too cute! The bacon eyebrows are my favorite part! Haha! The cooling effect was really nice too! Happy to hear you enjoyed this one! 😃

[itsfi]

@emaisgr8, it’s great that you got such nice results from this mask. @Shosh85 had a fab G & T theme with this mask. Love the bacon eyebrows on it! 😃
