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.

Yep @eshoe; I made a reference to the Choosy lip mask in my post; I edited the post to include the actual brand - Pure Smile; Choosy is the line of products not the brand. Conceptually the Pure Smile and this Unpa one are the same. Packaging is different - the Choosy line is available in packets and a jar; I haven’t seen one from Pure Smile in a dispenser like the Unpa.

Thank you @itsfi, I missed that and will read through again. I wonder how differently the facial and lip bubbling masks from a pump dispenser differ. I will have to do a bit of research!

[itsfi]

@eshoe, they’re not that different. Both the lip and facial bubble masks with a dispenser come out on a gel-cream like consistency, but the facial bubble mask like the Bliss Oxygenating mask bubbles up more and the product turns into a foam like consistency. The bubble lip mask also “foams” up but much less so than the facial bubble masks and the foaming really seems to happen as you massage or distribute the lip mask along the lips. The bubble lip mask also takes on a slightly thicker (but not thick) feel at the end whereas the bubble face mask is more airy and light.

@itsfi  That packaging... looks so chic!  I've got to say though, the idea of a bubble lip mask is intriguing.  I'm still on the bubble fence, but dang that's got me thinking now!  

And I hope you know how thankful we are to have you here as well.  I love seeing your gorgeous flat lays, even if they make me hungry 98% of the time!!!  lol.  Hope you enjoy your holiday.  Much love.

Awww, @missjeanie! 🥰 Thank you for your kind words; they mean so much. Hahaha! Masking and eating are two of my favorite things to do! 😉 I guess I’ve found a way to combine them. 😂 

“bubble fence” 😂🤣😂 I wouldn’t say a bubble lip mask is a must have but it’s fun. 

[missjeanie]

@itsfi I'm all about your food and masking combos!  I love the creativity. Makes me smile. 🙂

[Kim888]

@itsfi @That’s adorable packaging on the sheet mask! It sounds like a winner - it’s always great to have a good morning mask around!

[itsfi]

@Kim888, completely agree! The packaging on this one is super fun! I love that the mask itself also gives excellent results! ♥️

V is for Vegan. Today I remembered to include both my morning and evening masks in a post. I picked two Huangjisoo masks. In the morning I used the Red Fruits Brightening, and in the evening I used the Broccoli Plumping. As with all sheet masks I’ve used from this brand it smells a bit ugh, reminds me of the smell of a herbal medicine shop. Nasty but effective. My skin really looks great after using these. I am totally a fan of the line, mask is juicy and I have enough extra and it can stay on for eons before I remove it. Sad thing is, these are my last two. Gotta get some more once I put a bigger dent in my sheet mask drawer. I have one drawer and I do not allow myself to have more than can fit in it. And my last Missha haul filled up a lot of the empty spots.

@eshoe @Shosh85 Okay. It’s one drawer for sheet masks. I have little sock holders I got from amazon I put in them to hold them up. I have two little crates for eye masks.. one for heated (I use one nightly) and the other just, other eye masks. Then in the bathroom I have an undersink set of drawers dedicated to wash offs. And I have my night mask (face and lip) in my bedside stand drawer. So it’s not allll in one drawer.

 

 

 

[eshoe]

@Weetart hey at least you know where to find everything! It sounds like you have a good system in place👍🏼

[Shosh85]

@Weetart  Nice! Love the organization! I just downsized from 3 drawers of masks to 2, so I'm getting there 😂 I love that you have a spot just for the heated eye masks - those are definitely great to have on hand! 😃

[Shosh85]

@Weetart These sound so great - minus the scent! I've only tried one mask from this line, but really enjoyed it as well.

Good for you for keeping to your one drawer rule! Definitely seems like a great system ... and eventually I'll get myself there 😂

[missjeanie]

These sound great @Weetart , I recognize the packaging so I may have one from the line somewhere.  I'll have to take a look. 

[quspork]

Glad to hear these work so well for you, @Weetart! And I commend your restraint on sticking to the one-drawer rule.

E is for Escargot

Lapcos Escargot is a new to me mask, it's a medium thickness yet more flexible, fit was typical, snips in inner eye corners, a bit long at the chin. The scent is like perfume, it could be too strong for some,, it was almost too strong for me. Extra super bubbly serum, it does dry tacky, but fades within 5 minutes. 15 minutes wear time, my skin did feel nicely hydrated and moisturized and felt wonderful. Nice results, but not one I would prefer from the brand. 

 

[itsfi]

@lmaster, I was all on board with escargot but then you said the perfume scent was almost too strong for you, and that was it. This’ll be one snail mask I’ll pass on - that’s a rarity but really helpful to know about the scent. Sorry this one didn’t work out but there are more escargot masks out there waiting for us, right?!! 🐌 

[lmaster]

@itsfi I usually don't mind a light perfume scent, but this one was a bit too much to enjoy

[eshoe]

Well that’s a bummer, @lmaster. This brand is usually better, boo!

[lmaster]

@eshoe I know! The scent though... They need less perfume,, maybe more of a fresh scent 😣

[Kim888]

I don’t think I’ve seen this version before @lmaster- sorry it ended up being meh!
