Hello Lovelies! As we make our resolutions and check them twice, I thought we could start a skincare version of the Weekly Challenge. Many of us wanted to use more masks, shop our stash and focus on our Skin so hopefully this thread will be an inspiration to do just that. Join us with pictures and comments down below.
Masking Spreadsheet Info
Hello every, @eshoe and I are very happy to present the BIC Masking Challenge Spreadsheet. The idea is to have an easily searchable database of masks and reviews as a reference point when we are considering our next purchase. Data integrity was important to us so instead of everyone inputing data directly into the spreadsheet where theoretically information could be deleted or edited we have the questionnaire. It should take no longer then 1-2 minutes with the option for a more detailed review (which you can copy from your post on this thread).
Remember the idea is not to replace this thread. I personally love reading, commenting and interacting with all you amazing women here and that shouldn’t change. This would just be on top of that. Hopefully the more people that partake in this, the larger database of information we’ll have for reference. It will be extra effort in the beginning but then we would only need to input any new mask we’ve tried.
Additional Info:
Since we aren’t allowed to post links, please PM or myself for it. You will also find this information on the original post so you don’t need a database to search for this post!
Incase you need some help to filter/search results, try this :-
Search Specific Word or Phrase —> Edit -> Find and Replace -> Search Word
Filter/Organize by Columns --> Data -> Create a Filter -> Select Options
There are 2 ways to edit a response:
1) Once you have completed a survey, click on the "Edit Your Response" link on that page. Once this page is closed, the only way to make a change is to:
2) PM @Aaliaa or @eshoe to make the change directly in the response spreadsheet
Thanks @eshoe for putting this together!
Rules
Each week there will be a new Masking Challenge posted. It will range from type of mask, brand specific week or fun challenges along the way.
Choose mask, take picture (with mask on or before), place mask on face, relax and dream of the next Sephora purchase you want to make, remove mask for healthier skin.
Have Fun!!
P.S. If you have any suggestions or challenge recommendations feel free to message me and I'll add them to the list.

Merry Masking!
@IndyQT317 I was pretty pleased with it! This one only cost me $2.50– So that’s more like less than 1/3 the cost of GlamGlow!! 👌😉
The "gel" and kale components to this mask sound like it would be refreshing! Happy to hear the bubbles didn't go wild and into your eyes! @Shosh85
@itsfi This one didn’t go out of control and the “bubbles” were actually more like foam, so I’m sure that helped! 👍
I went for a bubbling mask for this week's mask challenge. Happy Monday!!
@itsfi I actually really like bubble masks– this one looks and sounds great! I also really like the sound of the Tony Moly mask starting below the eyes! I will definitely have to try it out sometime! 👌🤗
The design of the TonyMoly bubble mask is very practical; 👌 no worrying about bubbles running amok! 😂😂 @Shosh85
@Lazybeautybeast Great job with masking! I feel the same way about the “Yes To” masks– didn’t do much for me either.
Love the lip masks you chose!! The Bite Agave is my absolute favorite! 👌
Good to know about the Yes to! eye masks @Lazybeautybeast! It seems like I'm always debating whether to pick one up when I see them. Now I know to pass. Thank you! 🙂
@Lazybeautybeast yeah I tried those masks...I don't think either lasted more than a few minutes. More hassle than they were worth.
Both of thoes lip masks are awesome @Lazybeautybeast! Love them 😊 You’re on schedule this week with that foot mask! 😄
Closing out the week with these lovelies ...
The Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Sukari Babyfacial, the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask, the Sephora Collection Honey Lip Scrub and the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask are all favorites of mine. I have full sizes of both sleeping masks and will pick up a full size of the DE Babyfacial at the fall sale. The Laneige Water Pocket Sheet Mask Water Bank is new to me. I just removed it and oh my goodness!!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ I can't recall a thinner or softer sheet mask. Nor can I recall one that fits my face so well. I made a couple, very minor adjustments so it would lay better against my skin, but that was it.
One side of the sheet mask, the side to be applied against the skin, has a textured pattern to it, and this side is protected by netting when you first remove the sheet mask from the packet. I could not detect any noticeable fragrance. There's the slightest bit of of extra essence in the packet and I ended up applying the extra essene to my face on top of the mask.
This mask adheres well to the skin and stays in place - felt like nothing next to my skin. Left it on for 25 minutes and when I removed it, nearly all the essence had been fully absorbed into my skin. My skin feels soft, bouncy and moisturized; I don't think I'll need a moisturizer; instead, I'll just apply the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask before I go to bed tonight. This sheet mask is definitely a repurchase.
@melissabt you were so right about this sheet mask - it is amazing!!! 🙂 LOVE!!
UPDATE: The Daiso Foot Mask Pack and the Daiso Hand Mask Pack are fantastic! ❤️ ❤️ More details in the spoiler.
@eshoe I like to pick up some holiday gifts during the fall/winter sale - Sephora usually has some really nice sets / kits that come out around that time of the year. Also, if they have it again this year, I'll get a few of the holiday editions of the Sephora hand and foot masks, and the mini set of the Laneige water sleeping mask and lip sleeping mask - these make great gifts in the winter months.
In terms of restocks for myself, I'll probably pick up Olaplex No. 3, No. 4 and No. 5.
Yes, the sets are great for gifting aren't they, @itsfi? I am hoping to find more of the Josie Maran body butter duos in the fall scent/unscented. I like the idea of the Laneige set as well, especially during the winter months. It's funny, many years ago my Mom gave me a face mask for Christmas, something by Tarte I think, for your eyes, it may have been hydrogel. And I thought to myself, what is she telling me, does she think I have bad skin? Now I see she was just looking out for me. Nice that you are doing the same:)
Awww, @eshoe, so sweet of your mom. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ My mom would say "what's wrong with your skin?! You should do something about ...." hahaha! I'm not even joking; I am having a good laugh thinking about how she would go about it though. 🙂
Oh yes, fall scents are coming in season soon!!! Squee!!!! Love all the sets that come out; Josie Maran always has some lovely seasonal scents!
Thanks @IndyQT317! It was a nice head-to-toe masking session.
@itsfi You really ended this masking week with a bang!! 💥 These all really sound fantastic!! I’m so glad you liked them! 👌
Just ordered a Laniege sheet mask as well– I like the sound of a thinner and softer sheet mask! Great masking and awesome reviews as usual! 🙌
Thanks @Shosh85! I'm impressed by the Laneige sheet mask. If I hadn't just put myself on a "personal challenge" to go through my sheet masks before purchasing anymore (Daiso hand and foot masks being the exception - ha!), I would re-purchase the No. 4 and purchase a few of the other ones in the line. 😉
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Laneige sheet mask!
Oh I just purchased the Laneige sheet mask and now I’m so excited to try it, @itsfi! Thank you for your wonderful reviews, per usual. 🤗🤓😄
