ARCHIVE: Masks on the Move!

UPDATE: The new thread is up! If you are joining in, or just prefer to sit back and watch, join @lmaster at:

https://community.sephora.com/t5/Skincare-Aware/Masks-on-the-Move-Spring-V3-0/m-p/5134552/highlight/...

 

Spring MOTM box will be starting in mid-February. If you are interested in joining, please take a moment to complete the brief survey below prior to January 31st. ***If you have not participated in this or other BIC traveling boxes/unicorn mail, please PM me prior to completing the survey.*** We hope to see and share masks with some new faces!!!

Some pertinent info regarding the NEW double-box-in-progess set-up:

Spoiler
We will have two boxes in process this time. We are currently discussing the box composition and will update once decided what works best for the group.

Two BIC'ers will start off the boxes and they will travel through the shipping order until they make it to the other person at the end. 

CA participants are welcome to join again, we just need to ensure we have enough participants willing to ship in/out of the country. This will affect shipping order; other than that, order will be tentatively arranged by region to help offset shipping costs for participants.

Thank you to all who joined in the last round, we ended up with almost quadruple the original masks, which allowed me to create two new separate boxes (I also added in the extras from the first MOTM). There will be a bag of extras as usual, you all are so generous and make this so much fun!

Looking forward to February:)

Thank you @itsfi for all of your help in setting up the framework for the MOtM, and your many helpful suggestions. The entire masking community here is grateful to you!

  1. There will be 10 face sheet masks in the packet at all times. you can remove as many or as little as you would like; but there should always be 10 masks moving forward to the next participant. You may add in extras like eye, feet or hand masks, but they will not count toward the 10 masks (they are little bonuses😉). Let's just try to keep a good variety in the box, and if there is an ISO, please be kind and don't take it out as an extra. 'Filler' masks would be great bonus items to take out when there is an overflow. Really! Filler masks would be defined as daily masks, generally ones that can be found at TJ Maxx/Nordstrom Rack/etc. and/or are widely available
  2. How do I ship? Padded flat rate Priority envelopes are great for this, and can be ordered for free on the USPS site. Any packaging is fine, but please take care to ensure the masks are adequately protected. A smaller package will encourage more participation, which in turn makes things more fun! Think cost-effective for those shipping internationally. 
  3. Will this be open to US and Canada? Yes! As long as there is an interest and participants willing to ship, we would love to cross the border. This would be taken into consideration in the shipping order.
  4. Any eligibility requirements? Anyone who is has posted regularly to the previous or current thread is eligible. In addition, if you have been involved in other thread challenges on a regular basis/BIC exchanges such as Holiday, Galentine's or Halloween/traveling boxes, you are also eligible. We love new participants, please PM me if you are interested! 
  5. Approval: To be fair, a minimum of the person receiving the box and 3-4 others will suffice. If at all possible, please take into account any ISO's or skin type when moving the box forward.
  6. Mask Guidelines: The idea is to share your Favorite/Great Finds/Discoveries Masks. Please be considerate and keep in mind this is to give others (and yourself!) an opportunity to try some new and different masks. Let's not send gross masks/masks we just want to get rid of - this is to share our love of masking!
  7. What happens if the box gets lost? USPS provides a $50 insured value for free. If a box is lost in transit, you are responsible for shipping an additional box to the next participant. Declaring a $50 value ensures that you would be reimbursed by USPS in the event your package is lost; however this is a lengthy process and thus it would be your responsibility to keep the flow of the boxes moving by curating a new box and shipping it out as quickly as possible.
  8. How does the order work? I will use a random generator; if there are Canadian participants I would need to take that into consideration depending on how many people would be willing to ship in/out of country.

 

Re: Masks on the Move!

@l8totheparty @Right! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Re: Masks on the Move!

@missjeanie Haha! I am in the same situation! My mask count is somewhere around 400-450 and I've run out of space in my main mask storage area and now they are being shoved in drawers, cabinets, under the bed........ aaand that is why I'm on a low/no buy! 😂😂

Re: Masks on the Move!

I believe it @Shosh85 ! I’m trying to keep myself at the lake on the weekends so that I’m not tempted to just run into a store and browse. I’m giving myself a once a week only for Winners/TJMaxx! 

Re: Masks on the Move!

"I currently have masks in bags on my bedroom floor because my ‘mask boxes’ are full." Are you saying there's something wrong with that @missjeanie?! Cuz I don't see it that way; I think that's a genius idea! hahaha!

@ShortErica @l8totheparty 

Re: Masks on the Move!

Lol in my defence, the bags are actually sorted so that I know what masks are where @itsfi , I’m also guessing that I mayyyybe am not the only one!

Re: Masks on the Move!

@missjeanie, I apparently need the oven to cook with so that's been taken from me as additional sheet mask storage space. Hmmmph...hahaha!

At one point, I had several bins with masks, running across one side of the bedroom. My stash has been sufficiently downsized that that's no longer necessary. lol.

Re: Masks on the Move!

I was actually contemplating how I could raise my bed frame another 3 or 4 inches so that I could use under the bed to have masks standup in a few roller bins @itsfi . I’m told I’m ridiculous lol. But I don’t have a ton of storage space in my room at current! I can fit about 200 in my two boxes that were intended to use. If I could get a curated collection into those over the next two years I’d be happy. But that’s a long term goal lol

Re: Masks on the Move!

Who's telling you that's ridiculous @missjeanie?!! lol. I consider it resourceful, not ridiculous! 😉

You'll get through your sheet masks more quickly than you think. I put myself on an use-what-you-have, watch-it-on-the-sheet-mask-hauls program for a few months and was masking at least once a day for 6-7 days and then some days, twice per day and I made a nice dent in my stash. Problem was that I went just a teeeeensy bit crazy after I lifted my mask no/low buy, which is now very much back in place. hahaha!

Re: Masks on the Move!

It was the SO @itsfi ... can you believe he thought I was overboard. lol He has a drawer at my place and couldn't get into it because of how I had the bags all lined up bahahaha! He wasn't actually judging, just complaining to complain I think! I know I'll get through them if I hold myself to a low buy... I just don't trust myself on a low buy!

Re: Masks on the Move!

What @missjeanie?!! He must not have been thinking straight. lol. He should mask with you; I'm sure he will understand the importance of sheet masking if he took part in the entire process ... and you'd get through your sheet masks faster too! 🙂

 

You'll get through your low buy! Yes, you will! Give yourself a couple of weeks to get back into a routine with them and then have your sheet masks at the ready. 

Re: Masks on the Move!

I have an expensive feeling I know how this goes...

@ShortErica @Shosh85 @Missjeanie

looks good to me! @emaisgr8 you picked out alot of good o...

looks good to me! @emaisgr8 you picked out alot of good ones both ways😉

Re: Masks on the Move!

I think it looks great, @emaisgr8 - tagging everyone else @heartsmyface @missjeanie @Shosh85 @GalPalVal17 @Kim888 @lmaster @sonnydee 

Re: Masks on the Move!

Re: Masks on the Move!

Hi, the masks look super cute, I would like to know if they all sell them in sephora or where did you buy them? You could tell me what brand they are and how much they cost you, please. Thank you.

Re: Masks on the Move!

@Anonymous there are so many places to pick up sheet masks like @heartsmyface mentioned. Sephora of course, lots of online stores as well as stand-alones. You can find them anywhere from $1 on up. I think everyone buys their masks from a pretty wide variety of places. I've even found them at Old Navy and Party City while checking out, of all places!

Re: Masks on the Move!

Which masks are you asking about in particular?  They’re sold everywhere but if you ask about specific masks we can help you locate them;) @Anonymous 

Re: Masks on the Move!

Got the box! Here's what I got: (sorry for the bad photo quality, my iPhone camera stopped working so I had to use my iPad)

Re: Masks on the Move!

Oh such fun masks both going in and out @Shosh85 !!  I can't believe round 1 is almost over already!

Re: Masks on the Move!

GREAT selection of masks you get to try, @Shosh85! So happy for you, have fun, round one is almost done👍🏼 

Re: Masks on the Move!

@eshoe It's so hard to decide about which masks to put in - there are just so many I want to share with everyone! I was definitely lucky to be right after @heartsmyface! - but she's hard to top! 😃
