Yes @ather! This thread keeps me on the ball ๐
I may have been a little overly dramatic bout it last night. I knew Iโd get over it, but I needed the drama first lol. Iโm curious how it works out for you now! Keep a towel close at hand @eshoe !
Ha ha so good to know ahead of time @missjeanie๐๐ผ
AHHH! So glad to hear I am not alone ! I received this "MEG" two step mask in my facetory lux box and ....
@m3rc3d3s is it doable while taking a bath? I feel it might be less messy. I like to mask while bathing which works most of the time unless itโs a mask that dries then it wonโt work because my bath is so hot Iโm usually sweating so it ends up never drying.
Well I guess it wasnโt just me then @m3rc3d3s ! I couldnโt figure out how it went from the nice jelly I spied first to that liquide of a mess so quick.
@missjeanie I so feel you on morning masking and I'm also curious about the Azure masks. Maybe it will need to be in the next cheat sheet survey. ๐
The eye masks sure exceeded my expectations @ShortErica . I wonโt seek them out, but if I happened upon on of the full masks, I wouldnโt be shy about giving it a go.
Whoa, sounds like a very interactive masking sesh @missjeanie! ๐คญ
Lol interactive it was! @itsfi , a little too interactive for a repurchase I think lol
I feel like Iโll stick with the Murad for a bit @byme4u . On thรฉ plus side, my skin does look great this morning! Possibly some diminished acne scars!
Ooh, the Murad one is a nice one, @missjeanie! I pulled it out of the bin this weekend and plan to incorporate in my routine at some point.
Let me know if you can figure out the light scent on the murad @itsfi ! I remember enjoying it. I almost bought four more boxes and had to have a little chat with myself inside TJs last week. I swear someone takes over my brain in that store sometimes.
Will do @missjeanie. Iโm toying with the idea of doing a duel with the Murad and the Meg one I have (though I have a little reservation about the Meg mask pack after reading your post) - one at the beginning of the week and the other at the end. Weโll have to play that one by ear though, depending on how my skin is doing and what it feels like.
Ugh oh boy that sounds like one messy masking @missjeanie ๐ I have one from Facetory this month itโs in a green package though. Will need to take out and fit in for this week because you know the curiosity will haunt me otherwise!
I just donโt understand @eshoe , I used this one once before and didnโt have the same drippy issue. FYI.... donโt get any on your lips when you try the green one. It tastes gross.
Ewwww thanks for the heads up @missjeanie ๐
Whew! I rode that roller coaster of an adventure through your words! @missjeanie
Lol... I was possibly feeling a smidge dramatic about it all @l8totheparty .
I was having problems logging in and posting all day yesterday, so these are my morning masks from yesterday and today๐
Peripera Smoothie Time Pomegranate Mask Sheet
This is a super thin and transparent cotton sheet mask that had plenty of serum. It had a refreshing fruity scent, that I think could be pomegranate, but it's been awhile since I smelled one so I'm not totally positive. ๐The fit on it was perfect and it was so comfortable to wear - one of those mask you forget you're wearing. I kept it on for about 35 minutes. When I removed it there was still plenty of serum to dab in that wasn't sticky or tacky. My face looked brighter, less dull, felt soft and smooth and comfortably hydrated. I really enjoyed this one, just like the others from the line, but this would probably be one I'd less excited to use again only because the scents on the others were a little better to me.
This two step mask starts with first pouring the serum into the pouch with the sheet mask. The serum had to me had a nice light berry kind of scent, but it wasn't too noticeable while the mask was on. The mask itself is super thin and transparent cotton with yellow vitamin c dots all over it. It had a good fit - just a little too long at the chin. I kept it on for about a half hour. When I removed it the serum leftover was tacky but absorbed pretty fast after massaging it in a bit. My face looked brighter, had a very nice glow and stayed hydrated for quite sometime. This one is a repurchase, just not a run-out-the-door-to-purchase-right-away kind of repurchase.
