@lmaster  Yup, I'm super happy I picked this one out! 😃

[eshoe]

I remember liking this one too, @Shosh85! Neogen likes those multi-step masks, some are better than others (like the Bears!). Happy to hear your skin 💗‘d it:)

[Shosh85]

@eshoe  I've really liked the Neogen masks I've tried, though, I'm not a big fan of the Alcohol Denat that I've seen the few I've tried. This one just might be my most favorite from the brand so far. 😃

[eshoe]

Ahhh yes I forgot about that, @Shosh85🧐 I see it in quite a few masks, including wash-offs, I guess it’s the least expensive preservative option🤷🏻‍♀️

[itsfi]

This is a good one @Shosh85; it’s one of the masks that made me reconsider my feelings on interactive masks. Happy to hear it gave you good results. 

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  I'm almost 100% positive that this has been my favorite interactive mask! What was it that you didn't like about them? 

[itsfi]

@Shosh85, many of the ones I used early on when I first started sheet-masking didn't seem to work well for me - either not enough essence to fully coat the mask or the material for the mask wasn't comfortable (too thick, scratchy for my liking), or a combination of both. I've since discovered ones I like more, or perhaps there are better ones available now?, such as this Neogen one as well as ones from Urange and The Oozoo (the rose and honey ones are great).

[quspork]

Sounds like this one worked out well, @Shosh85! 

[Shosh85]

@quspork  It was great! Probably my favorite from the brand so far! 👍

[sonnydee]

Sounds good for the winter months too @Shosh85 yay for a motm win!

[Shosh85]

@sonnydee  Yup! Definitely picked out a good one! 😃👍

My M masks...

First off, the Patchology Milk Peel (notable ingredients include lactic acid, coconut and soy milk, and green tea extract). It's just a 5 minute mask, but I think I kept it on for a good 15 minutes without irritation. I liked this one quite a bit. The serum was thinnish and milky. My skin looked smooth and a bit glowy afterwards.

I also used the Milk Makeup Cooling Water Eye Patches. Wow - these really stick strongly on the eye! They did seem to get rid of some puffiness. I felt a tiny bit of itchiness while wearing them, which made me nervous. I'm not totally sure why, though I suspect that it may just be because they adhere so closely to the eyes. There also looks to be lavender in them, and sometimes I'm a little sensitive to that. Overall, good, but I probably wouldn't repurchase.

From your review the Milk eye patches don't seem like they would top the Skyn for me but tempt me to maybe try them once @PrettyPaint. No irritation and the results sound amazing for the Patchology one!

[lmaster]

@PrettyPaint I honestly can say I've never seen a milk peel mask 

[eshoe]

I’ve noticed some hydrogel masks itch around the edges, @PrettyPaint. It’s uncomfortable, and unfortunately results in early dismissal:/ Have you tried the Skyn eye gels yet?

[itsfi]

Oh wow @PrettyPaint. It’s not often you hear that an undereye patch sticks so well. 😆 You mentioned it containing lavender, can you smell the lavender in the eye mask?

[quspork]

Sounds like another win for patchology, @PrettyPaint! 

[Shosh85]

@PrettyPaint  The Patchology mask sounds wonderful! So happy it worked out so well for you! 😃

Its too bad the Milk patches caused a little irritation! The stick-on type is my favorite kind!

[Shosh85]

I apologize if this was posted in another thread somewhere, but I just noticed this new set of masks that's out 👇

SEPHORA COLLECTION The Vitamins Masks Kit 

Of course in all of them fragrance is super high and the star ingredient is low - and watermelon is higher than mango in the Mango mask 🤷🏻...... and yet I still feel compelled to buy them for some reason 😂

[ShortErica]

Looks like you @Shosh85, @lmaster and whoever else can be Guinea pigs for me and others. Let us know how they are! 😁

[Shosh85]

@ShortErica  I keep telling myself I'm not buying anymore Sephora masks because I just feel like they should have a better ingredients list for the price........ but it's so hard to resist new masks! 😂
