Girls’ Night In with Skin Republic Face Masks

Posted on December 8, 2015December 14, 2015 by Sohnee

How do you like to spend a cold winter night? I like to invite some girlfriends over and have a sleepover. Yes, we’re all adults, but sleepovers are still pretty fun! We watch movies, eat popcorn, drink wine (we are adults, after all!), and play around with beauty products. Face mask sheets are an easy way to get a deep facial treatment while still hanging out with friends.

Skin Republic Face Masks // Toronto Beauty Reviews

I invited 3 of my friends over for an ultimate girls’ night in! We each tried out one mask from Skin Republic: Collagen Serum, Vitamin C, Anti-spot & Blemish, and Platinum Lift.

The Collagen Serum face mask sheet is an anti-aging mask that gives your skin a moisture boost. It contains collagen, elastin and vitamin E to rejuvenate elasticity and tone. Your skin ends up feeling firm and fine line are reduced.

Vitamin C is a brightening mask that evens tone. It reduces the visible appearance of age spots and imperfections. Whenever I hear “brightening”, though, I think “whitening”, so I gave this one to one of my caucasian friends to test out. She said that she really liked the way her skin looked so luminous after she took it off and rubbed in the remaining serum.

The pore refining anti-spot & blemish mask cleanses with salicylic acid, but keeps your skin calm with witch hazel and tea tree. Redness is reduced and you have a lower chance at another breakout.

Finally, there’s the Platinum Lift. This firming mask contains ingredients such as trehalose (a sugar molecule used to moisturize) and pomegranate (full of antioxidants) to protect the skin against environmental stressors. It lifts and firms the appearance of the skin, enhancing texture and elasticity.

Face mask sheets are a fun way to incorporate beauty into any sleepover. They can look a bit scary when you’re wearing one, but you’re not the only one in the room! Plus, application is always even and cleanup is a breeze.

Consider trying one of these Skin Republic face masks the next time you have a girls’ night / sleepover (or just have a quiet night in)!

…they also make GREAT stocking stuffers!

    I love sheet masks…it is hard to chose just one! For mass/drugstore is Garnier Sheet Mask! I like the color code system so you can find the right mask for you!

    Ah! I’ve been meaning to do this with a few girlfriends, I always get those cheap ones from Walmart though. I’d love to try this brand. I could really use that Vitamin C mask.

      How do those ones work? I’m sure as long as the ingredients in them are good (and it’s not just water!) they would work well 🙂

        I actually really like them to be honest. I know there are better options, sometimes I do a real mud/clay mask. But for girls nights I feel like they work well enough.

I was invited to try the Turkish Bath Ritual and was truly blown away. The space is beautiful and calming, the service was impeccable, and the treatment itself was divine. 🧖‍♀️💆‍♀️ 

It’s an indulgence to be sure, but one I would 10/10 recommend for special occasions. 

Have you tried this type of treatment?

Hi! 👋🏼 I’m still here! I’m sorry I haven’t posted Hi! 👋🏼 I’m still here! I’m sorry I haven’t posted much. I’m finding it a bit hard, tbh. 🫤

I’m figuring out what the next phase of #TorontoBeautyReviews looks like and healing from an injury, while my 9-5 has lately been more like 7-7, so I’m filling my off hours with family, dance, food, and books. Finding joy and peace where I can in an intense world. ❤️

I still try out lots of products and I do occasionally paint my face 🙃. I’m just not as interested in the grind of daily posts just for the sake of staying relevant anymore. Which has meant that I’m not on as many PR lists as I used to be. Which means that I don’t have as much new stuff to review. It’s a cycle. 

Things are shifting, which is tough sometimes. But it’s ok - so am I. 😊

A longer video, because there’s a lot to talk abou A longer video, because there’s a lot to talk about here. 🫤 I’ll be reaching out to the company in question to make them aware of the situation, but I wanted to share it with you all as well. 

How is this type of thing still happening, even in the age of AI? If a high-tech “smart tool” can’t properly recognize and accommodate diverse skin tones, then it needs further development and should not yet be released. End of story. 

Use your purchasing power to support brands that are inclusive in their product development, testing, promotion, AND corporate structure. Every action has impact.
