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.

RE: Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@yankeefaithful, I tried my first Crème Shop mask this week, too, just haven’t posted yet. Loved that it wasn’t tacky/greasy like soooooo many other masks. It’s so annoying trying to fall asleep, wondering how that tackiness is affecting the pillow. I can’t wait to try more!

Re: RE: Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@eshoe  Yes, I agree, that it's really nice not to have that tacky, sticky feeling! I guess we're both converts! 😉😊

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@yankeefaithfulunI’m so glad you liked The Creme Shop mask! That’s a great one! – it definitely does smell good! 👌

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@Shosh85 I definitely like the fusion mask and the smell is a plus. I hope the rest work as good as this one!!😘

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

I'm so glad The Creme Shop mask worked out for you @yankeefaithful!  Good to know about he Lancer Polish too.  I think I received it in a gwp but have never used it; I've heard good things about Lancer products so I'll have to dig this out and give it a try.  Thank you for sharing your thoughts on these masks; super helpful!  🙂

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@itsfi Yes, I think you would like Lancer polish as an exfoliant. So far it hasn't caused problems with my skin like other scrubs. This duo worked great!😁

RE: Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@yankeefaithful I’m glad that you enjoyed your masking session! It’s so great when you find great masks that give the expected results and even more!

RE: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Hi everyone! Been away on vacay for a couple of days and took several Mask options with me and finally tried my Origins Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask followed by Origins Drinkup Intensive Overnight Mask. Okay....wow! I am in love with these masks and am buying the full sizes ASAP!! The charcoal mask went on smooth and dried down so comfortable! I love a mask that doesn’t “hurt” when it’s on! It removed easily and my skin was soooo clean and smooth! The overnight mask smelled amazing! Like a mix between an old fashioned heavy cold cream like my grandma used to wear and honeysuckle. I love the smell of it and it goes on heavy and luxurious and totally hydrated my skin and when you wake up it is almost totally soaked it and no residue or stickiness. You can go about your business until you are ready to wash your face with your that sticky gross feeling of an overnight mask. This is the best overnight mask ever!!! Used it for 4 days in a row. I love it that much! Meant to try other masks when I was away, but I was sooo obsessed with these 2!!

Re: RE: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Hope you had fun on holiday @KrishAt! The origins active charcoal is one of my favourite masks and I love that the price is so reasonable too. 

Re: RE: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Oh I have to try the drinkup intensive overnight mask, it sounds so perfect @KrishAtl! So glad you’ve discovered some masks that work so well for you 😄

RE: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@KrishAtl, ❤️❤️❤️ the Origins Drink Up Mask!!! That has been a favorite of mine since I vowed to switch to cleaner beauty a few years ago. It really is perfection:)

Re: RE: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Those are both great masks from Origins @KrishAtl; your skin must be loving the combination of detox + hydration masks.  🙂  Hope you had a great time on vacay!

RE: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@KrishAtl The Origins Drink up mask sounds great. This one should be so useful during our cold and dry winter conditions up here in Canada! I have to check this one out ! Thanks for your review!

Re: RE: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@KrishAtl  I'm so glad you found some great masks and passing on the info to us!! I've been pleased with Origins products,  so I'm not surprised you liked these! Thanks again and enjoy your great skin!!

Re: RE: Mask of the Week Challenge!

These definitely sound fantastic! So glad you had such great results! 👌🤗 @KrishAtl

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Starting out this weeks challenge with both GlamGlow and The Creme Shop– two of my favorites! 👍8890A99D-ED64-498D-B890-914D7A566CC8.jpeg

 

Yesterday I was an Oompa Loompa, today I’m the Tin Man! 👇

GlamGlow GravityMud Firming Treatment 
I bought my first container of this a while ago- and the last time I tried this I think it was going bad because I didn’t get the usual results, so today I decided to crack open a brand new one and try again.
This mask is a fun metallic silver color and has a pleasant fruity scent. I painted on an even layer and waited about 20 minutes for it to dry. As it dried I could feel my face tightening, but not an uncomfortable tightening feeling. Then you’re supposed to peel it off- the peeling part was surprisingly gentle and pain-free. It didn’t feel too harsh on my skin at all, which isn't what I usually experience with these peel-off ones. It came off in one big piece and I was left with soft, smooth and firm skin and a literally GLOWING and even complexion! My face didn’t feel extra dry like I would’ve expected. 
This is definitely a win in my book and will most likely continue to purchase it once I’m out. 😉👌
The Creme Shop Rose Water Face Mask
This mask had a light smell of roses 🌹 with a perfect amount of serum. It fit pretty well- just slightly big around the forehead area.
It instantly felt cooling and soothing. I removed the mask after about 30 minutes and my face was noticeably brighter! I did notice a tacky/sticky feel right away, but that feeling went away as the serum fully absorbed. The end result was soft, smooth, bouncy and bright skin! 👍

RE: Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

@Shosh85 that firming mud sounds amazing. Planning to get a glam glow mask with my next purchase and debating firming or thirsty mud. Decisions decisions!!

Re: RE: Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Thanks, @MackyDeanna! If it’s between GravityMud and ThirstyMud, I’d go with ThirstyMud! I think I like using that a lot more than the GravityMud. If you need hydration, the ThirstyMud will give it to you. 🤗👌

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

Should I sing"Follow the yellow brick road"? @Shosh85 😉 These look like 2 great masks! I'm glad the Glamglow peeled off easy because that can be a pain(literally!) Sounds like they left you with glowing skin! 😊

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

That’s a good song, @yankeefaithful! – but my favorites are “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” and “If I Only Had a Brain” haha!

These we’re both great masks! - a little better than I expected, actually! 😉👌

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge!

This is a gimmicky peel off mask that I would try for sure! It looks so fun! You make a lovely tin man @Shosh85 💕😄 

I’m in love with how this Rose mask sounds! My skin has liked other rose masks so this one is on my must-try list! Thanks for sharing 😊
