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

Right @Kim888! Masking can definitely be a vehicle for some down time and self care, but I also love a good, quick & easy mask when I really want the benefits of masking but don't have the time for it.

Thanks for the review on this one, @itsfi. I was curious about it when I saw the new package/formula but was hesitant that the scent would be overpowering. I'm glad to hear you didn't find it to be too overwhelming!

[itsfi]

@quspork, the scent is definitely noticeable but it's not so strong as to be unpleasant or uncomfortable.

A for anti-aging - that's part of my skincare routing in every season. The Hado Labo brand is a favorite and this is one of the few sheet masks I use regularly that's not contained in a multi-sheet mask pack. The ingredients are good for anti-aging and hydration. Trash day came before I could take a picture but this is a screenshot from amazon.

I like the brand's lotions/toners. Haven't used their sheet masks before; didn't even know they had them.

[Cissy63]

@minathayes  Oh this sounds wonderful. And the packaging is so calming, like a spa!

[eshoe]

Ooooh @minathayes this is the first time I believe I have seen this mask reviewed here! I hesitated on this one, but it sounds like besides the pretty packaging, it sounds like one I need to try. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. 

[Shosh85]

@minathayes  Glad you found one you enjoy using! The packaging is pretty! 

[itsfi]

Ahhhh, Hada Labo @minathayes! Such a great brand. 😍 I like the ingredients in this one; sounds on point with the claims of the mask. Have you tried their lotions?

[lmaster]

@minathayes the packaging is calming! 

[CynthieLu]

Pretty cherry blossom package @minathayes what did it smell like? It sounds like this was pretty hydrating 😄 love a mask that packs a moisturizing punch 👊 😀 

[missy94612]

I think I got ahead of myself; I thought we were on next week's theme / letter. We went with B is for blueberry. 

HE SAID: Moisturizing. Skin feels good. Doesn't smell like blueberries, but it doesn't smell bad either. 

SHE SAID: I like it too. It's not the best mask for the winter, but it's refreshing and a little hydrating. I think I'd like it more in the summer but it's fine now. 

[lmaster]

@missy94612 that mask looks so refreshing 

[quspork]

There's nothing wrong with being ahead of the curve, @missy94612. Too bad this one doesn't have more of a blueberry scent. 

[itsfi]

It’s too bad this didn’t smell like blueberries @missy94612, but refreshing and hydrating are good results. Would you consider this a filler mask? 

[missy94612]

@itsfi 

That sounds about right. It wasn't bad and the results were fine. I guess it would be what some maskers here would say it's one we'd use again but wouldn't run out to get. And we don't have to since it came in a pack of 10. It would be elevated from a "filler" mask if it smelled like blueberries. LOL. 

[CynthieLu]

With that pretty package I'm surprised they didn't try to hit the Blueberry scent better lol  @missy94612 

[Shosh85]

@missy94612  This one sounds nice! Too bad it doesn't have a blueberry scent - the fun packaging really gets you hopeful for a great scent! Glad you both liked it! 😃

[Cissy63]

@missy94612  I love the picture on the package 🫐🫐. Good to have no bad results. Refreshing “ sound’s worth it 🫐

[eshoe]

@missy94612 this packaging reminds me of the Peripera Smoothie masks. ‘Not bad’ is better than causing irritation, I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️

@missy94612 ME said, "Dang, it would be more interesting if it actually smelled like blueberries."
