@itsfi - Thanks for your review of Biossance's new lip balm. I've been on the fence about it and so I didn't pick it up during the sale. I really love BITE's Agave Lip Mask - how do you think they compare?
@MCSSavvy, the consistency of Agave lip masks feel a lot thicker to me than the Biossance one.
@itsfi -- Good to know. I'll check it out but may pass in favor of the Agave lip mask.
@itsfi You really got this color coordination down! I love that you have shorter and longer versions of the review 😃 Definitely sounds fantastic and the ingredient list looks great! It's too bad about the scent, but at least it fades. So happy you enjoyed it!
Thanks @Shosh85! 🙂 I was really excited when I noticed that the lip balm coordinated with the ingredients (rose) and the color of the mask. I suppose that's bound to happen with how many sheet masks and lip balms I have. hahahaha! 🙂 🙂 These Inna Organic sheet masks are great. It's interesting that I didn't care for the scent - I'm usually a fan of the Chinese herb and Korean hanbang scents; not sure what about this one my nose didn't like. lol.
Does this live up to its claims? It is a nice, calming, brightening, evening mask. It left next to no tackiness. It has a pleasant scent to boot. Although I can't vouch for all the claims as some look longer term, I would use this again!
So happy to hear you like this mask @l8totheparty! I'm always pleased when a brand local to me puts out nice products. 😉 Love your "Does it do it all?" comment. Is the mask one you would consider using regularly to see if the claims that require longer term use pan out?
I would consider using this one regularly to see if it lives up to the claims.
My skin feels moisturized as well, and soft this morning. I imagine, from results, that it could be quite nice over a longer-term as well.
The price-point here made my heart hurt a bit to use as an everyday mask ($9/mask). However, for me personally, it will be a nice treat mask and is in my cart for the next purchase through Well dot ca.
@l8totheparty That's what I was going to say too..... it would be nice to use as a daily mask.... but only if it was cheaper - it's $6 USD 😬 @itsfi
@l8totheparty I'm happy you liked this one! It's a repurchase for me too! I agree though, it may be a really great mask, but "does it all" is a bit exaggerated- I still think they should change it to, "does a lot" 😉😂
'Does a Lot' is a great description! 😉😊
J is for Juicy 🥥🍍 gifted to me from the fabulous @eshoe 😊
Leaders Insolution Juicy Pina Colada Bright Mask
This is a biocellulose mask that had plenty of slimy gel serum and a pretty good fit - just a bit too long at the chin. The scent is exactly how I imagined it would be - like a pina colada. I really enjoyed it. While it was on though, I feel like it was pineapple I smelled the most. The adherence was excellent and it was very comfortable to wear. I took it off after about a half hour. The serum leftover absorbed quickly, but left behind tackiness that took about 20 minutes to absorb. My face looked brighter, had a nice glow and my skin felt hydrated and very soft and smooth.
I'm super happy I have a more of these, because I really enjoyed it and look forward to using it again! I'd also love to try the other Mojito flavor 😃
The scent on this one, @Shosh85 🤩🥰 I was going to use mine last night but was too tired. I want to be able to savor the piña colada scent! I’ve been finding that’s a Facetory has some great masks included in their $1 Mondays.
@eshoe I loved this one! I picked up a few from Facetory when they were on sale for $1 too 😉👌 I look forward to every Monday to see which masks are on sale 😃
@lmaster It was excellent! I ended up getting a few more from Facetory for $1 😃👍
Another solid Leaders mask @Shosh85! It makes me happy when I hear Leaders put out another good mask. I don't know why but it does. 😉 I'm always wanting it to do well. When I first saw this line of masks, I didn't know what to think because the aesthetic of the packaging is quite different from their other lines, but I've tried this one and the moijto mask and like 'em both. I'm glad this was a good one for you too.
@itsfi I know what you mean - there are just some brands you just want to see succeed 😃 it's definitely one of my most favorite brands. I'm happy to hear you liked the Mojito one too! 🤗
@l8totheparty I loved it!.... especially the scent 😋🥥🍍 It really makes me wish I was sitting on the beach drinking a Pina Colada 🏝🍹
