Oh that's such a beautiful photo @heartsmyface so satisfying 😅
@heartsmyface you definitely had a fun time mask shopping. Enjoy all those goodies and I look forward to your thoughts on them. 🙂
You picked up some good ones @heartsmyface! Enjoy your new masks! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
@heartsmyface I spy a 23 Years Mask! That is one that doesn't have a mouth hole! Have you tried one without a mouth hole?
I remember the first time I saw someone write this I was a bit taken aback. I keep delaying using them because when I mask I usually am relaxing with my husband watching tv or something and "need" to talk. Thanks for the reminder @Shosh85. I can't wait to see @heartsmyface showcasing how the mask looks.
Did I send you one of the 23years masks, @ShortErica? Maybe the rose one? Can't remember. Glad you are forewarned in case you do have one, I had no idea and it was terrifying 😄
Yes @eshoe! The rose gold one I think and possibly another. I remember considering it for Spring Flower week and was like, nah I have other options. Ha! I am so glad to have a heads up about it.
@itsfi just recently reviewed the Rose Gold one and gave it an A+ I believe @ShortErica -hope it works for your skin as well😊
@Shosh85 Noooo, lol, but I am mentally prepared now!!!! I can do this!!! No snacks and no talking!!! Good to know going in!!!
@heartsmyface I actually just bought a couple to try again!
@heartsmyface @Oh i hope you end up enjoying the yadah snail mask! I feel like the ingredients list was great and I can’t go wrong using this one! I’m curious to hear other reviews though! Looks like you picked up a bunch of new fun ones! I mean is masking really the worst habit you could have?? Lol I’m sure you’ll get some extra time soon too!
@missjeanie 😄well I have time now, lol, right now, but may have to go very soon. Running conferences and parenting don’t mesh well.
I can think of a few worse things to do with my time🥳
Tonights lineup include some JOjoba oil and jeju prickly pear:). Just starting now:)
Ah, I have constant problems editing in posts which contain photos. The lapcos Oil Mask is a two piece mask that’s stiff. I don’t like that. It smells lovely of the flower extract blend but most prominently of roses. I enjoy that it’s not an artificial rose scent. I couldn’t wear the mask the whole 20 minutes cause I wanted to eat and it was flapping around. i do love the oil it left on my skin. I may buy this again just for that (or find other more fitting oil masks) imd give this an A+ had it been more comfortable but it gets downgraded to a B that I would repurchase.
I applied the prickly pear soothing gel to my body As I would an aloe. There’s no trace of it. Hmmmm...? Yeah I can’t decide if there are any benefits yet. Give me a week.
The Aerin Rosen night cream is fabulous. It is thick and smells light of Roses and absorbs like a dream. It’s everything the Korres rose sleeping mask wanted to be. I find that one too strong so i’m Going to dilute it into unscented body cream. It gets an A+ it’s so luxurious!
Just noticed from this angle, the Jill Stuart looks strikingly similar in color/consistency to the Tatcha Kissu @heartsmyface . Is the JS scented?
All their lip products have a very subt’e Sweet floral scent to them. But it’s not quite a floral. Jill Stuart cosmetics in general have a signature scent as guerlain does. It’s hard to place. @eshoe
Yes, that’s a nice scent @heartsmyface, I bought the bright blue petite robe for my daughter😊 Thank you;)
Yeah @heartsmyface, I completely agree about the Lapcos oil sheet mask - just not a great fit. Have you tried the Leaders or make p:rem oil sheet masks? Those are my favorite oil sheet masks.
The Aerin Rosen night cream sounds amazing! I love your idea to dilute the Korres rose sleeping mask into an unscented body cream - I'm going to try that because the scent on that Korres sleeping mask is too much when I'm trying to drift off to sleep.
Tagging @sonnydee because I think she also had issues with the scent on the Korres rose sleeping mask. I think it was you, sonnydee.
@heartsmyface I have read a lot of reviews on that Lapcos mask and haven't heard anyone say they love it. I like the sound of the oil on the mask, but not sure I could do the stiffness! Comfy-ness is important to me. 😉
The Aerin Night Cream sounds like something I'd love! I'll definitely have to look that one up! 👍🤗
