Mask of the Week Challenge!

[Aaliaa]

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.

There are 2 ways to edit a response:

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.

The boscia was snapped up awfully fast @IndyQT317! I think there’s a set containing the pore pudding mask that’s still available. Not sure how you feel about the other products in it though.

BOSCIA - Dig Deep - The Charcoal Skin Kit

[GalPalVal17]

@IndyQT317 I too wasn’t fast enough to get the mask online.  Maybe I’ll stop by a store to see if they have some in stock. There has been good reviews on it so something I’d like to try. 

[lmaster]

@IndyQT317 I had the same problem with sleeping masks, I think if we use minimal product, let it soak in a bit and then apply a moisturizer over it, the tackiness goes away decently. I love the pudding mask you used, it's so satisfying mixing the colors together lol

[eshoe]

It sold out SO FAST, @IndyQT317! I looked around 6am the first day of the sale and it was already gone. @Shosh85’s description of the scent (geranium) really intrigued me. 

I am heavy-handed when it comes to a lot of products, too. It seems like with sleeping masks you need so little. Have you tried any yet?

[veronika23]

Glad to know you would repurchase the Boscia @IndyQT317! I just bought it last week when it was on sale in Canada. Haven't opened it yet though.

[Shosh85]

@IndyQT317 Love that Boscia mask! One of my favorite traditional masks! Glad to see you like it as well! 👌

[ChristinaRenae1]

Sand and Sky’s Pink Australian Clay Mask has been working wonders as a detoxifying Mask. I’m so happy Sephora finally sells it. I can really see a noticeable difference in my skin’s texture and tone. 💕

[CC3616]

@ChristinaRenae1 Thanks for your thoughts on it! I've been wanting to check it out 🙂 

[itsfi]

@ChristinaRenae1, this one is on my list of masks to try. Great to hear you’re happy with the results it gives. 👍🏼

[GalPalVal17]

@ChristinaRenae1 I’ve tried this one a couple times and have enjoyed this one as well. I have another use or two from my sample that I look forward to. Glad it’s working well for your skin. 

[lmaster]

that's a favorite of mine as well @ChristinaRenae1 glad it's working great for you as well 😉

[eshoe]

Sounds like a great clay mask, @ChristinaRenae1- glad it gives your skin some TLC!

[veronika23]

Oh nice @ChristinaRenae1!!! I hope Sephora Canada will stock this at some point. Thanks for your thoughts!

[Shosh85]

@ChristinaRenae1 I owned this a while back and though I prefer masks that don't harden down so much, I did see some great results! Glad you enjoy it! 👌

[IndyQT317]

@ChristinaRenae1 Funny this is the second time in two days I heard about this product. Although someone says it stings a bit. Is that your experience?

[ChristinaRenae1]

I don’t feel any type of stinging/burning at all. I’ve been using it for 3 weeks now and sometimes I’ll just use it as a spot treatment. That might be a good way to start out with it.

The past 3 days of C sheet masks - Capricorn, Collagen and more Collagen 🙃 Still going strong with daily masking!

I’m not going to do a big review ecause these all have my stamp of approval ❤️. There are a few notable things though. The Capricorn mask smelled, to me, very strongly of white flower and that wasn’t one of the main “essences” listed on the mask. Of the two collagen masks I definitely prefer the Lapcos but the Creme Shop is a good option too!

[itsfi]

Love these “C” masking choices @scott1201! 💕 Thanks for the comparison with the collagen masks; I’ve tried one from The Creme Shop but have been wondering about the Lapcos one. Wow!!! You’re killin’ it with daily sheet masking! 🤩 I’m inspired to give it a try for the month of February - it’s a shorter month after all! 😆

[Shosh85]

@scott1201 I don't remember if I have that one, but I do have a few from the line I still need to try! I'm happy to hear you liked this one! 👍😉

[lmaster]

oh I have the collagen mask from the creme shop too @scott1201 glad you liked it, I need to try mine soon 😍

[scott1201]

Hope you love it, @lmaster!
