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.

@ShortErica  Yay! I was just wondering when you were gonna do a Holika Holika showdown! I've only tried 3, (lemon, strawberry & rose) and I think Lemon is my favorite so far! I'm pretty sure the Pearl is up next in the schedule for me.... I'll definitely have to compare notes when you've gone through them all! 😃

And darn! I still have the Mugwort one with your name on it!

[ShortErica]

Oh yay! Looking forward to your thoughts too @Shosh85. And no worries, there will likely be a smaller but still quite a bit of variety Holika Holika part 2 showdown in the future. 😊

[lmaster]

Wow!! That looks so cool @ShortErica 

[ShortErica]

Thanks @lmaster! It will be nice to see which ones stand out

[emaisgr8]

I can't wait to hear your thoughts @ShortErica . I always love your comparison posts.

[ShortErica]

Thanks @emaisgr8! That's encouragement to take good notes. So far lemon > acai berry for me.

U is for Ultru

Ultru I'm Sorry For My Skin pH5.5 Brightening Jelly Mask

This is a thin cotton sheet mask that was LOADED with super thick and slimy jelly serum. There was enough extra serum left in the pouch for my neck, chest, arms and legs. It had a mild citrus scent - lemon and orange is what stood out the most to me - and it wasn't as noticeable when the mask was on. The fit was good- just a smidge too wide by the temples and little too long at the chin. It adhered well and was comfortable to wear the 45 minutes I had it on. When I removed it my face felt great and so refreshed. There was some light tackiness that literally lasted an hour and a half! I actually don't mind tack at all and wouldn't even notice it unless I touched my face, which something I try not to do in general- but I do touch it after I mask (with clean hands) for the sake of detailed notes. 😂My skin looked slightly brighter, and had a nice glow and the moisture and hydration from it was long lasting!

I loved this one and would absolutely repurchase, especially if spotted at TJ Maxx again!

@Shosh85 @Oooh this looks interesting! I love ph oriented masks - this sounds great! 

[Shosh85]

@Kim888 It really was great! This is only the second pH mask I've used, but I've loved them both! 😃

[eshoe]

Haven’t heard of a bad pH5.5 mask yet, @Shosh85! This sounds especially inviting, given the extra serum😉

[Shosh85]

@eshoe  I loved the thick jellly serum! The only other pH5 mask I tried was the Heimish one and loved that one, so, so far so good! Would definitely love to try out more pH5.5 masks!

[ShortErica]

How would you compare it to the Brightening Yadah Jelly @Shosh85? Do you repurchase both at TJ Maxx or prefer one or the other?

[Shosh85]

@ShortErica  It would be easier to compare them if I did them closer together, but from what I remember and according to my notes, it looks like I like this Ultru one better -  it has thicker jelly serum, a wee bit better scent and was better at moisturizing and hydrating. So, I actually probably wouldn't repurchase the Yadah, now that I've discovered this one! 

[ShortErica]

That's good to know - means I gotta check these out at some point @Shosh85. I think the Yadah jelly have been my favorite jelly mask so far.

[lmaster]

@Shosh85 slight tackiness is ok good thing it wasn't sticky 😉

[Shosh85]

@lmaster Yup, the tackiness was light, it just lasted forever....  I think it'd make a great morning/primer mask 👍😉

[sonnydee]

ohhhhhh😍 patiently waiting for the day to spot at TJ or M...the scent & mask sound lovely @Shosh85

[Shosh85]

@sonnydee  Yeah, I found a bunch of different ones at Marshall's right before all this COVID stuff happened. I still haven't been back to TJ Maxx/Marshall's since then, so I'm hoping to find some more too! 😃

[itsfi]

Oooh 😍 This one sounds amazing @Shosh85. I’ve used a brightening one from the line but not a brightening with pH 5.5. Love the disco ball on the packaging, too. This one is definitely going on my list. ♥️

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  It was so good! It makes me optimistic about the others I have from the line! The disco ball is the reason I chose to try this one out first 😂😉

[itsfi]

The disco ball would have made me pick it up, too @Shosh85. 😉
