Mask of the Week Challenge!

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

 

Spoiler

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

 

Spoiler

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.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi The PTR helped a lot. I've never reacted that way to a peel before. I don't think it's the fact that I left it on 10 mins longer, it started to burn around the 5 min mark 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ It's very heavily fragranced also. I don't know if it's because I use too many AHA/BHA products but this is a nope for me. Me no like. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Thank you @GG84, for your review of the mask!  Sorry to hear of the burn - hope the aloe helps as that your skin recovers quickly.  I’m quite interested in this mask - sounds so good (from description and other reviews) and I really like Lancer’s Polish. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

So glad I read your spoiler - I am thinking there will be a 10 foot pole between me and that mask. Wait wait wait..more holiday appropriate...I wouldn't touch it with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!

@GG84 oh honey! I'm sorry your face was burning and turne...

@GG84 oh honey! I'm sorry your face was burning and turned red! oouuchhhhh hope it gets better fast with the aloe!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Yikes @GG84, that sounds a little too exciting of a mask for me😂

Mask of the Week Challenge!

this morning I went with the creme shop clarifying peppermint cocoa sheet mask. I was a little surprised to see alcohol denat. as an ingredient #3 I believe in the list, but I still used it, because I am trying to dry up a blemish. it was definitely cooling and smelled nice, so far I'm not seeing any overproduction of oil, so I'll be watching carefully the next couple days. it did help dry up the blemish some. I left it on only for 15 min. it fit nice, but I try to avoid alcohol as a top ingredient so, unfortunately I won't be buying this ( I did get this from my ipsy)

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@lmaster, it’s disappointing to see alcohol that high on the ingredients list. Glad to hear it dries up blemishes but I hope it doesn’t cause an overproduction of oil for you.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Oh it did today @itsfi such a bummer!! The ones you gifted do not have alcohol in them, I wonder why the ones from ipsy do

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

That’s really a bummer @lmaster ! I hope that your skin returns to normal as soon as possible! I hate when the masks have a high alcohol content! The 3rd ingredient WOW that’s a lot of alcohol! 😳 !

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Ugh, why @lmaster?!?! Such a let-down to see that as #3 on the list. I wonder if the other Crème Shop holiday peppermint mask has the same ingredients 🤔

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Not all of them do @eshoe, the ones from ipsy do, I know, and guess what today.... Oily oily oily!!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Awww too bad about the alcohol. 😞 @lmaster

I know, booooo lol @veronika23 but so far I'm still doing...

I know, booooo lol @veronika23 but so far I'm still doing good

Re: I know, booooo lol @veronika23 but so far I'm still doing...

Well that's good @lmaster 🙂

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I did my first ever AM mask this morning. @eshoe sent and recommended the When 10pm mask. She also added a note that it was her favorite.

 

20181218_072836.jpg20181218_072842.jpg20181218_072847.jpg

 

 My face:

 

The fit was good except for around the mouth/chin. The serum soaked in wonderfully after 30 minutes. I used my normal moisturizer after and applied 
Dr. Jart+ Cicapair™ Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment SPF 30 1.7 fl. oz/ 50 mL, some blush, and mascara. My face seemed good.

 

I had to Google bio cellulose mask since I had no idea what they were. That's really cool about the fibers. And after reading, it made perfect sense why I was able to multi-task while masking this morning.

 

I understand why @eshoe really likes it. I've never modified a mask before but if I did this one again I would try to correct the fit around the mouth/chin. Any YouTube videos on how to make masks fit better? I remember my first mask post had a horrible fit and it may be useful to know how to adjust them in the future. Thanks!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@ShortErica Biocellulose is such a great material for sheet masks ! You can literally do anything when wearing one! @eshoe sent me the same mask and I really enjoy it! I’m glad that you enjoyed it as well! 😉 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@ShortErica, the When 10:00 pm mask is one of my faves, too. For a better fit at the mouth and chin area, try making a small cut at the bottom, below the outer corners of the mouth. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Thanks for the suggestion @itsfi! I will try that next time a mask isn't quite right.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

You will definitely put that tip to use along the way, @ShortErica-there are some strange-fitting masks out there!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Such pretty eyes!!! @ShortErica
