@Cissy63, you may already have them, but The Masque Bar has a few different dog prints in their Animalz mask line. 🐶 🐩 🐕 Does your pooch look at you funny when you wear a sheet mask around the house?

Ooo I actually am using part of the monthly letter this time. I am using A for First Aid Beauty FAB Pharma Arnica Relief & Rescue Mask 3.4 oz/ 96.4 g  I have been getting a ton of sun lately and my poor skin is very dehydrated. I have been trying everything to help but nothing is helping so tonight I tired this. I have used it before and I keep it around because it helps my skin when it’s very sensitive. I love that it has a light scent that is very earthy and it’s not overly strong and that I can just apply it and forget about it.

@ather Pssst- mix argan oil or vitmain E into your masks;);)  and as gross as this sounds a humidifier helps mitigate the dryness from air conditioning if that’s also a possible factor.  

[ather]

@heartsmyface  Such a great idea. I need to try that. I think my face is a little upset because of too much sun!! 

[heartsmyface]

@ather  Ohhh, ouch, once you’re in sunburn territory you should be treating it as the wound it is and be using polysporin or an anti-microbial ointment.  Vitamin E is great for moisture but if you need that pain relief as well polysporin is the answer.  

[ather]

@heartsmyface  I wasn’t sunburnt but you know how your skin feels funny when you’re in the sun to long. Almost like a leather feeling lol. Maybe it’s just my skin. 

[heartsmyface]

@ather  Aw yeah, dried up skin barrier.  oils!  All the oils!!   
I actually just made my own homemade rose water simmering rose petals from the garden until they were colourless, which has been really nice, softening and relieving.  It was already pretty oily but I added a few extra drops of rosehip oil to make it extra nice!  I put it in an old toner mister and it’s sitting in the fridge for refresher mists.  Plus it smells divine!  

 

 

[lmaster]

@ather I've not tried that one!! 

[ather]

@lmaster  It’s a good one!!

[quspork]

I hope this gentle mask gives your skin some much needed soothing and hydration, @ather!

[ather]

@quspork  It definitely did!!
