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.

Awww @Mcakes, thank you!!! 🤗 You are so sweet and thoughtful to keep us in the loop! 🥰🥰 I look at all the goodies in the set and think:
“ooooh, so many fun treats!” 🤩
“you don’t need that!”
“look at the variety...” 👀
“do you need it?”
“there’s so many good masks...”
“but do you need it?!”
ETA: the set has already been added to my cart. Hahaha! 🤪😂🤣
Thanks @Mcakes, looks like there are quite a few good masks in that set!
Last night’s masking: I decided to do some major exfoliating so I started with BOSCIA - Exfoliating Peel Geland then followed up by using TO AHA 30%+BHA 2% Peeling solution ( it’s not available in Canada so I had ordered it from CultBeauty.uk ) and left it on for 15 minutes then rinsed it off. I followed by using Origins Mega-Mushroom Skin Relief Soothing Treatment Lotion ( it’s more of a toner than a lotion ) . Afterwards I used the Origins Mega-Mushroom Relief & Resilience Soothing Face Mask. This mask has a clay-like consistency ( it contains Kaolin ) and contains a wide range of soothing ingredients ( it does however contain many essential oils that some might find irritating ) You are supposed to leave it on for 10 minutes and then wipe away the excess but my skin just drank it all up so I didn’t have any excess to wipe off. I used the Hylamide HA Blur ( it’s like a primer, contains silicones and hyaluronic acid ) over my face in order to seal in the moisture that the Origins mask provided . If you have oily skin and/or acne you might want to reconsider this step but my skin is very dry and I need all the moisture I can get! I might suggest, if you want to use a primer for occlusion purposes, that you find a cheaper option than the primers used for foundation application during daytime. I used the Origins Sensory Therapy Peace of Mind on my temples to relax and help me fall asleep because I’ve been having a hard time falling asleep. This is also a great product to use to alleviate headaches without using medication.
The Origins Mega-Mushroom line sounds so good for dry skin in the cold weather @keana1! 🍄😊
It’s great for winter 🥶 @itsfi ! I really like this Mega-Mushroom line ! It’s very soothing for dry winter skin! 😉
Thanks @lmaster ! My sleep problems are starting to get better lately! 😉
Your routine last night sounds so relaxing, @keana1! Reminds me to use my Aveda oils tucked in my medicine cabinet for some extra soothing:) How often do you do this multi-layer exfoliating?
Yesterday was my first time @eshoe ! My skin didn’t feel irritated at all which is surprising! Maybe because I used different Origins Mega-Mushroom products to counteract the potential irritation?
I have yet to try this OOZOO mask @itsfi ! @eshoe also gifted me the same mask ( thank you @eshoe ! ) I’m so glad that that you’ve gotten great results, I can’t wait for winter to end ( it hasn’t started officially yet 🙄 ) to use it or any other sheet masks because they feel sooo cold 🥶 when I use them !
I know, @keana1! It has been a cold fall and I’m very well aware that it is so much colder up where you are than where I live. Brrrr! I think you’ll like the Oozoo mask when the weather warms up!
I’m sure I will @itsfi ! I think that everyone who has tried it gave great reviews in this thread!
Oh yay, so happy your skin liked it, @itsfi! This is definitely my favorite so far of the In-Shot masks, but I still have one more to try. Thanks for sharing your thoughts as always!
I’ve been closely following your use of the masks @eshoe! Will be interested to see if this one stays your favorite. This and the rose one have worked out well; I have the honey / royal propolis one to try out.
That was a nice one, @itsfi! I would definitely buy it again 😊
Yay! I’m even more excited to try it knowing that @eshoe! 😃
This looks so scientific it must work right!?! haha @itsfi
Hahaha @Aaliaa! Yes, that’s it! It’s got to be good! LOL! 😆 I’m always a little nervous about the interactive masks - am I going to get all the serum in or will I waste some of it while trying to get it to work (and ruin the masking experience)? I am intrigued by what the mask would be like without injecting the serum.
