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.

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

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!

LOLL @itsfi yes the sleeper hold!!!! I was the only girl who’s Barbie had a GI Joe for a “boyfriend” hahaa no Ken dolls in my house 😂

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

 @itsfi  love your review! coming from a household that is into wrestling, that was a great reference/example of how much you like that mask and how great it works. Will definitely keep an eye out for this one.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@GalPalVal17 I grew up watching a good amount of wrestling with my dad and brother but am still amazed how big it has become. If your skin is in need of hydration, this Vitamin E mask makes a great tag team partner! 😉 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi All of these Banobagi Vitamin masks sound so great!! I am so happy to hear this was a winner! I have a lot of these (mostly from you, I think😉) but still have yet to try them!! I'll definitely have to look through my stash and see if I have this! (because let's be honest, I have no idea what's in there anymore! Ha!😂

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@Shosh85, Hahahaha! 😂😂😂 I know what you mean! I apparently have multiple mask stashes in the house - it’s like two libraries of masks! 😊 I have a better idea of what I have now that I put myself on a low buy and am shopping my stash. I’m pretty sure I can get through another couple of months without “running low” on sheet masks. 😬 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi  Yeah, I have a full mask library as well! Haha! I've been trying to slow down my mask buying too! Sometimes though, especially when shopping at TJ Maxx, it gets hard to control myself! Luckily, my TJ Maxx has been pretty boring lately! Haha! 😂

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I saw these photos in the feed and thought ‘wow, I wonder where this is going?’😂 It sounds like this is a fantasy mask @itsfi and I’m pretty sure the exact multi pack I passed up at TJMaxx🙄. I’m going have to try these out soon, I love love 💕 the sound of it!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@eshoe  the vitamin E mask is great for dry skin, so much hydration. I really liked using it after the AP Enzyme peel too. I’m still on that same DS I started in December! I thought for sure I’d finish it this month but nope! It’s still going strong! Whenever I use it, I remember your comments, eshoe, about how you like the fragrance - it makes me stop rushing to get through my skincare routine and take a breather to enjoy the scent! 😃 A good reminder to slow it down and get in some me time while masking.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

That just brought a little smile to my face, @itsfi -anything that helps slow life down a bit to appreciate the details is nice😊 I almost used that DS last night but opted for the Tatcha instead...I guess I’m saving it ‘for a special occasion’ and I need to remember that special occasion is today!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Well said @eshoe! 🤗  

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Thanks for your thoughts @itsfi! I think I need to try all of these. 😄

 

Vitamin E for the win! 😄

@veronika23 these vitamin sheet masks are great! hahaha! Your gif! 😂😂88D9C70D-158A-4760-843C-A0AF5654C11A.gif

 

 

love the theme this week @itsfi my OCD approves your phot...

love the theme this week @itsfi my OCD approves your photo👍enjoy the great masking experience!

Re: love the theme this week @itsfi my OCD approves your phot...

Thank you @sonnydee! 😃 I didn’t know much about this brand until I purchased these vitamin masks. I’ll definitely be looking into them more after I’ve gone through more of the masks I currently have.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Had to take a little break from the rubber masking! Haha! This one was much more relaxing.... and simple😂😉

Erno Laszlo Firm & Lift Firmarine Hydrogel Mask

As with most two-piece hydrogels, this one had a good fit – just a teeny bit long at the forehead and the nose flap was too long. It had a good amount of serum, with a little extra in the package as well. It adhered pretty well – the bottom half slid around a little at first when I tried to talk, but after it dried more it stayed put better. It had no discernible scent, just a clean and fresh type of smell. It felt cool and super comfortable while it was on. I left it on for about a half hour. When I removed it, there was only a little serum left on my face and it wasn't tacky or sticky at all and absorbed fairly quickly on its own. My face felt refreshed and energized, maybe a little brighter, and was very soft and smooth. My skin also felt perfectly hydrated and comfortable. I didn't see much firming and lifting, like it claims, but I didn't expect to, as that seems like something that would occur after more consistent uses. I got these at TJ Maxx in a pack of 5? and I'll be happy to use them up. I'll give this an A- grade, because even though I'd use them again, and maybe even repurchase from TJ Maxx, I'm not so sure they're worth the full price they normally go for. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@Shosh85  I've been hoping to find these at TJ Maxx. Retail is expensive but I've heard great things about this brand. I did get a sample of their eye masks in some sub or sample bag and I really like them. Need to keep an eye out and snag these up if I come across them for cheap.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@GalPalVal17 Yeah, if I can find, just about anything from this brand at TJ Maxx, I'll definitely give it a try! 👍

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I actually found a cleansing oil and cleansing bar at TJMaxx from this brand and really liked them too! @Shosh85 @GalPalVal17 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@missjeanie  I bought one of those from TJ Maxx as well, but have yet to try it!! Happy to hear you enjoyed it! 🙌😍

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@Shosh85 Yes! I got the pink one, soothing I believe, and the bar is good, doesn't make my skin tight at all and I feel as though my skin is clean.  The cleansing oil is really nice though, my skin doesn't feel dry after at all, it feels nourished, and I want to say this has been helping me with how dry my skin has been lately (it's actually hurt a few times when I've had to be outside).  If I see more I'll be buying for sure.  Funny.. when I first saw this brand I had to look them up as I'd never heard of them.  I'm a fan now (at the TJX price) lol. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@missjeanie  I'm pretty positive I got the pink one as well!! That's awesome it does so well for you! As soon as I'm done with the bar of soap I'm currently using, I'll be trying that out for sure! 🙌🤗
