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.

Merry Masking!

 

Re: those eye masks sound great @itsfi

So far, so good @lmaster! 🙂

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi oooh those Sanrio themed masks seem like a hit around here. I def need to pick some up. I will definitely look out for your review on the eye mask when you've had more time to try them. I love eye masks but yes, a little anxiety of putting them around the entire eye. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@GalPalVal17, these eye masks seem to be okay - they’re not saturated with cream so it’s not dripping down my eye which I’m happy about. I’ll let you know how it goes after I use them again. 😃

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

omg what a cute sheet mask @itsfi ! they always do packaging well!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@Kim888, I’m very pleasantly surprised by the Hello Kitty collaboration. The masks are cute and they perform well! 😃 The packaging is adorable too!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I'm coming to realize that most of the Cream Shop masks seem to be good ones.  I'm looking forward to your review on the eye masks!  They look kind of cool with that shape! @itsfi

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@missjeanie, The Creme Shop has a lot of good sheet masks. It’s nice too that they can be found in different stores too - TJ Maxx, Riley Rose, and you can order the eye mask online at Walgreens and pick them up in the store. The DHC eye masks may be my surprise hit of the week! 😊

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Riley Rose sometimes has some amazing deals @missjeanie@itsfi! I just ordered from them last year for some stocking stuffers, and had a lot of fun browsing the site😄

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I'll check them out right now!  I love finding great new sites! @eshoe. .... well new to me!

 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I'm excited to come across a great eye mask!  I'll have to keep an eye out for the DHC!  The picture file on my phone is growing with photos of masks that I'm curious about should I come across them!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@byme4u, do give the PTR peeling gel a try. You can sometimes find deluxe samples in one of the Sephora Favorites mask or skincare sets. It’s the best I’ve tried. 😃

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

That's really interesting about the cs mask... how moisturized your skin felt. I can't wait to try mine!!! Might have to look into that leaders mask as well. 😄  I'm with you and masks covering my eyelids... not something I like. But it does sound like they have good ingredients. Curious to find out how you'll grade it! @itsfi

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I was really surprised as well @veronika23. I kept wondering if I had already applied my moisturizer but nope.

I find that Leaders mask to be very hydrating 💦  but if you dislike really saturated sheet mask, you should pass on it because the sheet mask is full of essence. I’m really intrigued by the DHC eye masks, more so than I thought I would be. I’ve been putting them off since I saw the design - which I probably should have paid more attention to before I actually bought them. LOL! 😂 But they are pretty good.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Thanks for the tip about the Leaders mask! I don't mind that... just hate when I have problems putting the sheet mask on. 😄 I really need to figure out a good way to adjust the eye holes... I hate when it gets too close to my eyes. 😄 Glad you are liking the eye masks so far! @itsfi

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I so agree about the eye holes on sheet masks @veronika23! I've come to terms that I need to make adjustments to the inner and outer corners of the eye area 99.9% of the time and then lift that portion up and away from my eyes. 🙂

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

And you just cut them with scissors... doesn't it get messy when it's dripping with serum? I usually stretch the mask around the eye area. 😄 @itsfi

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@veronika23, I have a pair of small scissors that I keep in the bathroom cabinet just for my sheet mask surgical procedures. LOL! I haven't experienced any serum running down, but if a sheet mask is particularly saturated with serum, especially in the eye area, I'll take a washcloth and absorb some of it, then one snip in each of the corners and then I fold it up over my brows. I've tried stretching the mask but my lack of coordination gets me in trouble and sometimes, a lot of times, the mask does not stretch so nicely. hahahaha!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi  haha nice! Thanks for the tip! 🙂 The stretching doesn't always turn out so well for me either. 😄

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi Besides the fit on these, the Sanrio masks seem pretty good so far! I wouldn't have guessed this would be moisturizing at all! I pulled this one out for possible masks to try this week as well! 👌

If been hearing about that PTR Peeling Gel a lot on here! It is now on my list (my very long list, haha) of things to try! 😉

Thise eye masks look interesting! I haven't seen them in that shape before! I'd be interested in hearing your final thoughts on them!👍

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@Shosh85, it takes a little work to get the right fit on these Hello Kitty masks but it's not too bad. I wouldn't reach for them on a busy morning; they're definitely better for those days when I'm not in a rush to get through my routine and out the door.  Will definitely keep you posted on the DHC eye masks; I think I might try to use it again a couple more times this week.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi I've only tried a couple of masks from the Sanrio line so far, but I do remember the fit not being the best! Usually though, if it gives good enough results, I can look past the fit! When you're in a rush, arts-and-crafts-masking just isn't ideal! Haha! 😂
