To Post:

Each week features a different theme, as well as a letter of the alphabet for coming up with new masking ideas. 

Please include the brand and name of the mask you are trying out, as well as a photo if possible. Any other details are greatly appreciated, including scent, if it's an exfoliating mask (include acid info if known), your overall experience, and whether or not you would repurchase. Don't forget to include a grade (thanks to @ShortErica for the idea) to help others along the way.

Most importantly, have fun and merry masking!

@eshoe 
I'm happy to hear the Venofye mask worked out nicely for you! It's not one I'd pay $50 for, (let's be real, there's not any sheet mask I'd pay that much for 😳) but I did enjoy it! 😃

[eshoe]

I’m with you on that, @Shosh85 - I start to question rationale around $5😂 It was so fun to try though, many thanks🙌🏼!

[nikkayy0]

Summer fridays duh!

[eshoe]

Oooh I enjoy a couple of their masks, @nikkayy0! Would love to know if you have a favorite:)

[nikkayy0]

Jet lag for sure!!!

E for a gift from the Exciting @eshoe Thank you! Fit?good, usual extra on the jaw line. Did have to adjust the part under the nose..its really wide Smell?kinda disappointed it didnt smell like something🤷it had a lot to choose from after all! but no, typical sheet mask scent. Consistency?cool jelly & lots of it. Used the extra on hands, shoulders, more on my face after removing it after 30 min Ease of use?no trouble. could multitask just fine Would I  purchase/try again? yes, this was nicely hydrating after a hot lake day. An excellent mask to have if you want to change it from using aloe/ after sun masks. 💚💛💚💛💚* * It does have AD in it.- 5th ingredient

[emaisgr8]

I love jelly masks after being in the sun. So soothing @sonnydee 

[lmaster]

@sonnydee I really would of thought it had a fruity scent 😩

[sonnydee]

me too😳 @lmaster I stuck my nose up to the pouch twice thinking it had to be a mistake THERE was so much they could make it smell like. kiwi please!

[quspork]

Ooh, this sounds like it would be a good one to pop in the fridge for an extra little cool down during a summer masking session, @sonnydee!

[sonnydee]

Yes, that would just make the experience even better @quspork 🏖

[Shosh85]

@sonnydee  Glad to hear it turned out great despite the alcohol! Definitely sounds like a perfect summertime mask! 😃👍☀️

[sonnydee]

face enjoyed it very much @Shosh85 @ather

[eshoe]

Ahhh I forget these have AD, @sonnydee 🙄 I like these but yeah, try to limit my skin’s alcohol intake, too;)

[sonnydee]

yeah, i look when I'm buying now at the ingredients & the exp. dates but I'll try it if it's already in my stash or a gift. my skin seems to need it 🤗@eshoe

[ather]

@sonnydee  Sounds refreshing!! I’m sure the jelly helped cool your skin down! Sounds perfect for the weather now! 

[eshoe]

Notes from my partner-in-masking tonight, on the Burt’s Bee’s Hydrating Sheet Mask:

Spoiler

Doesn’t stick very well. Come on, face mask. It just literally fell off my face. Maybe I should wet my face down first.

It smells like pool air...but I can’t place it

Genius idea! I will cut it up into quadrants! That was fun.

 

My face feels so refreshed and hydrated!

[emaisgr8]

Cutie! @eshoe 

[eshoe]

Thank you @emaisgr8, I will let her know☺️

[ShortErica]

I need more appearances - this review was amazing @eshoe! Why has no one else thought of quadrants to apply masks?!

[eshoe]

She has me on my toes for sure, @ShortErica ☺️
