Feel free to join in whenever and wherever. Share your thoughts and observations on a mask you have tried, we need all the details, please! Most importantly - have fun!

| January | Fresh Starts - Time for a re-set, or morning masking? However you see it, this month is all about new beginnings. |
| February | Winter Love - Whether it's a mask you adore, or something extra-special to care for dry winter skin, this month is for some soothing TLC. |
| March | March Madness - Competition is in the air! Find a $ dupe of a $$$ mask that is share-worthy? Or find a dupe that works even better than the original? Details, please! |
| April | Spring Fling - Baskets and bouquets, showers of much-anticipated rain...this month's focus is herbal and floral sensory delights. |
| May | Dew Drops - May Day lore says to wash your face in the dew you collect in the morning of the first day of May for radiant skin. This month is for absorbing all of that good-for-you H2O. |
| June | Summer Sunshine - Ice cream, sunglasses, SPF, check! Once the sun is down (or before it's up), extra care is most necessary. How do you give your skin cooling repair? |

Thank you @Aaliaa for starting this thread, and giving us a place to share our love for masks💗
This week and last week's masking, the hubs and I went with some of the Fresh masks from this mini set that I picked up to sample. Most of these are left on for 5 minutes are less, which is really great. We used the firming one for "F" week and the umbrian clay and rose face masks for 5 minutes each for "5 minutes and under". Maybe a "G" too this week for the masks being good ones. 🙂
The last of last week's mask (F for Frudia) but it can easily slot into this week's letter of the week theme as well with a G for gastropod, a fitting lead-in for this week's masks. If I'm remembering right, @sonnydee first talked about this mask. 🐌

All about Frudia Royal de Snail Green Mask:
🐌 Claims: calming, soothing and moisturizing
🐌 Material: soft, thin, cotton sheet
🐌 Essence: clear, thin, watery but not runny
🐌 Scent: refreshing, subtly of lotion
🐌 Viscosity: Light
🐌 Adherence: good
🐌 Fit: better than most sheet masks - just a smidge too wide at temples; 1" - 1-1/2" too long at chin and jawline; adjustments needed to bottom corners of inner eye area
🐌 Tack: faintest tack after 30 minutes of wear and pressing excess essence into the skin to help with absorption
🐌 Results: hydrated, moisturized skin
🐌 Best suited for: all skin types; good every day mask, but I would consider this more than just a filler mask, maybe filler+ (filler-plus?)
🐌 Repurchase?: Yes, a nice snail mask to have on hand, but not a "must have"
There are two other sheet masks in this line - one with caviar and gold extracts (black packet) and one with red ginseng extract and collagen (red packet). I've not tried either but have them both one of my lists. Has anyone tried either of the other sheet masks in this collection?
