@missjeanie  That's probably where I got it from too -  I had an Ipsy sub and a Facetory sub at the same time and couldn't remember which one it came from. I don't usually have a whole lotta luck with Ipsy masks either, but this one gave me a good first impression 👍😃

[missjeanie]

I'm super impressed with it now @Shosh85 !  I just need to figure out which bin I put mine in lol

[quspork]

This sounds like a nice one, @Shosh85. It'd be interesting to see if the filminess was a one-off or not. 

[Shosh85]

@quspork  This one is definitely seems great for dry skin! I really need to get another one to compare!

S for Starface & Sleeping mask..love Glow Recipe Watermelon sleeping mask, its great. I have it in full size. 🍉 smells amazing! And I have finished this ds so yay! another empty for this month! The starface are actually stars that are patches for blemishes. I think I got these as a addon from ipsy but im such a sucker for patches. Me & the teeni both use them. So I have 2 on one side of my face so will update tomorrow on the results. Its different "blemishes" so this should interesting. They look opaque but they are pretty sheer. The sleeping mask I used everywhere else..UPDATE: the star on my chin/jaw didnt last until morning. I lost it some where but the one on my cheek had that tell all sign of all the nastiness being sucked out of it. The patch actually has a sort of "bubble" of nastiness. & my blemish does look less angry but also more formed. Will have to use more but better than the skyn patches.

@sonnydee glad to hear these work well!! I didn't even know skyn had blemish fits 😆

@sonnydee, nice to hear the star design is cute and that the product works. As gross as it may be, there’s something so satisfying about seeing that the gunk has been / is being sucked out blemishes. 

[ather]

@sonnydee  Those star patches are soo cute. It’s good the one seemed to work! 

[missjeanie]

@sonnydee I like the stars!  I use these types of 'blemish dots' every now and again... I'm not convinced they do a lot, but I'm also not willing to chance it lol

[sonnydee]

Have you used peace out dots? @missjeanie 

[missjeanie]

I did use them once @sonnydee , I've used a couple from the Cream Shop as well and two that I don't recall the brand.  They all pretty much did the same thing for me I think. Do you have a favourite brand?

[sonnydee]

Peace out & the creme shop pink patches work well for me @missjeanie 

[ShortErica]

I have creme shop pink hearts I'm using. Is that the same as the pink dots, different just in shape, or possibly different formulation? Anyone know @sonnydee @missjeanie @Shosh85 ? I had a good experience with the Hanhoo from Shosh on my open blemishes but I don't know how much they did for ones I hadn't popped.

[sonnydee]

Yes, the pink hearts are what I was referring to @ShortErica I couldn't remember the shape & wasnt near them. 😕They also have mint colored stars. I think for dark spots? Or something like that

[ShortErica]

Oh cool @sonnydee. So far I think they are effective but it is harder to see the gunk than clear patches so a bit less satisfying in that regard for me. 😂

[missjeanie]

@ShortErica @sonnydee  I've used the pink hearts from Cream Shop, and the HanHoo ones from @Shosh85 as well.  Right now I'm using the Cream shop ones that are clear.  I'll attach a pic of the packaging "what acne, invisible makeup patches".  I'm not sure how to rate these type of patches... I think I like the ones with an active ingredient? 

[ShortErica]

@missjeanie do you think the creme shop pink hearts and hanhoo had similar performance?

[missjeanie]

@ShortErica I do.  I'm noticing a small difference with these ones that have salicylic acid, but I find it super hard to compare since so much time elapses between using each pack for me.

@sonnydee That sleeping mask really does smell so good! 😋🍉

The blemish dots look fun! I'll be interested to hear if they're effective! ⭐️

I've been working graves so am finally getting around to posting this one. I actually have like 4 or 5 more of these in a row to go before anything new. It's another ok mask for me.
