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 bonuses๐Ÿ˜‰). 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!

๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ I was sooooo anxious about this package @lmaster! I checked tracking yesterday and the first time it said it couldnโ€™t find it in their system but to check back in the next couple of hours. ๐Ÿ˜ณ You bet I did and it said there was a delay. I thought โ€œuh oh; here we go...โ€ ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿคช I sat by the window this morning keeping an eye out for when the postman made his daily rounds and let out a very audible sigh of relief when he handed me the box from you! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Re: Masks on the Move!

Have you had issues with the mail before me??? ๐Ÿคฆ @itsfi 

Re: Masks on the Move!

I'm  cool with the swaps, @itsfi but definitely agree with the others that you should grab a couple more outs! These envelopes only hold so much hahaha!!

Re: Masks on the Move!

@itsfi Such wonderful additions. You should take more out though. 

Re: Masks on the Move!

@itsfi @I agree with the crowd, pick another !! Is it just me or would my living room look awesome in the colours on that grey age defying mask? Mostly grey with pops of those colours.... hmmm. 

Also thought that honey mask looked like a turkey dinner on my phone lol

Re: Masks on the Move!

@missjeanie, the packaging and color scheme on the Whole Foods masks are pretty in real life and this particularly mask ended up photographing quite nicely. I think those colors would look amazing. Can you imagine going to the paint store and just handing them the WF mask packet and saying โ€œIโ€™d like these colors, please.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜†

Re: Masks on the Move!

Since I'm thinking of painting sometime soon @itsfi , I totally would take an inspiration mask in to the paint department! lol.... I keep changing my mind on colours though... I need to find one set of colours I'm good with for longer than a week!

Re: Masks on the Move!

First off why are there 14 masks?!

 

Next, @itsfi at least take the number that you put in! How are people fitting this in a small envelope anymore? @eshoe too many kind souls giving more than they are taking!

Re: Masks on the Move!

This happened last time too, @ShortErica. TWICE as many masks returned to me! I still have them, not sure how quite to disperse them yet. The maskers here are overly generous, I gotta say!

Re: Masks on the Move!

I have a crazy idea @eshoe but if people would be up for it, have both a forward and backward box going simultaneously. You could easily have 2 boxes with all the extras and send one to the first and last person on the list. Everyone would just need to be okay with the cost of sending out 2 packages. I may just be silly ๐Ÿคช but maybe it would be cool.

Re: Masks on the Move!

I will PM you @ShortErica I love this idea and want to figure out some schematics before we open it up๐Ÿ˜‰

Re: Masks on the Move!

Sounds like a good idea! I'll look for your PM @eshoe.

Re: Masks on the Move!

That sounds like a great idea to me @ShortErica.

Re: Masks on the Move!

Ok @ShortErica @lmaster maybe we set up the โ€˜springโ€™ ๐Ÿ˜‰ box like this?

Re: Masks on the Move!

@eshoe I'm in, and if there's anything I can do to help, just pm me ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ’“

Re: Masks on the Move!

I will be messaging you soon about it @lmaster !

Re: Masks on the Move!

Sounds good @eshoe ๐Ÿ‘

Re: Masks on the Move!

@eshoe Iโ€™d say see what others think but would say next box for spring is probably a wise idea with holidays coming up soon.

Re: Masks on the Move!

So, do you want to be a spring box ๐Ÿ“ฆ starter, @ShortErica? I start at my end, you start at yours๐Ÿ˜‰ @faeriegirl @lmaster

Re: Masks on the Move!

@eshoe I thought I replied but I guess I didn't.@faeriegirl seems like a great person to start. I'll be backup if you need one. I feel like my collection isn't as diverse (the ones I have to share) as others but I'm happy to do it if you need me to.

Re: Masks on the Move!

@eshoe @ShortErica @faeriegirl sounds great!
