33 masks in a month @missjeanie?!!! 👀 That’s fantastic! 👍🏼 👊🏼🙌🏼👏🏼  Love your masking choices here, especially doing the Hectic masks; the cream based masks sound wonderful this time of the year. I am bookmarking this page for another day, maybe a haul day. 😆 A haul day? Yeah, not for a while. The weather will be warmer when that happens. 😝 

[missjeanie]

@itsfi Thanks!  The cream ones were actually much nicer than I remembered.  That plastic layer and the cream concentrated on the inside... good combo even if the fit was bit off.

[itsfi]

@missjeanie, it's so interesting how our thoughts on a mask can change depending on when we use it.

[QueenMarceline]

@missjeanie I'm honestly having trouble with the numbers theme myself but it just came to me earlier today and I found just the right thing for it 🙂 I'm with @Mellmars1185 those are some super unique masks that I haven't seen before. Super cool choices and I'm glad most of them worked out quite well for you.

[missjeanie]

@QueenMarceline I think I have a few more numbers in my stash, I just need to look through a bit more.  I'm working on pulling out a dozen or so and keeping them on my washroom counter to remind me to use them.  I'm not mad at having a few more of these ones to go through this week!

[Mellmars1185]

@missjeanie I have never seen these masks before! Glad you were able to stay with the theme and use up some older masks! 

[missjeanie]

@Mellmars1185 The Hectic masks were a pick up from TJ Maxx a few years ago.  I have a TJ Maxx problem for mask packs lol

This is for the number theme...

It's the SSAW 7 Teen Herb Tea Mask. It says that it's moisturizing and firming. It definitely smelled "herbally," and the fit was a bit too large all over. My skin is pretty dry and dehydrated with the cold weather, so I didn't find it to be particularly moisturizing. I'd say it's probably just a filler mask, as I didn't really notice any significant benefits. 

[Shosh85]

@PrettyPaint  Sorry to hear this one was unimpressive.
This cold weather has been brutal - it's definitely been hard on my skin too. 🥶

[PrettyPaint]

@Shosh85 I am so ready for Spring/Summer!

[lmaster]

@PrettyPaint im noticing that masks are not as hydrating and moisturizing this winter for me 😐 hurry up spring!!!

[PrettyPaint]

@lmaster  I totally agree. I am in great need of some sunshine. And yes, my skin is looking pretty dull and parched these days. 

[itsfi]

@PrettyPaint, this winter has been a doozy on the skin. The ingredients list for this mask looks really good. I wonder if you’d see better results if you used it on a daily basis for a week or so, if your skin is okay with daily masking. 

[PrettyPaint]

@itsfi  The ingredients do seem decent! I think it would probably work better in the warmer months for me. My skin is just a little bit too dry these days. 

[Mellmars1185]

@PrettyPaint Nice themed mask! It is nice we get to go through our mask stashes to fit the theme!

[PrettyPaint]

@Mellmars1185  I totally agree about how helpful the themes are. It helps to have that inspiration!

[missjeanie]

@PrettyPaint I think so many of us are finding this winter particularly dry.  So hard to find great moisturizing masks right now.  Good to have a good filler at times too!

[PrettyPaint]

@missjeanie I'm glad I'm not alone on the dry skin. That makes me feel better! I really can't wait until it's above freezing outside!

[missjeanie]

@PrettyPaint @Your are soooo not alone! I don’t think I’ve had a day above freezing in at least a month now. My skin is going through oils and moisturizers like crazy this year.

[PrettyPaint]

@missjeanie  I'm sorry your skin isn't enjoying the cold either. I can basically apply endless facial oils, moisturizers, serums, etc. and my skin just soaks it all up. 

[heartsmyface]

Well, I’m leaning back and am resigned to that I’m dripping jelly like serum all over the place. No one can accuse this mask of being dry.  I like the little aha exfoliating wand that is the first step to this mask pack.  It managed to remove staining on my skin from lipstick swatches earlier today.  the mask itself is fantastic. fits nice if not a little long in the chin and smells light and floral yet not overwhelming.  the dripping is a bit irritating but my skin feels plump and a bit slick after 30 minutes.  No stickiness or tackiness detected.
