I’m excited to try these too.

I’ve been using everything straight away but I’m wondering whether to wait till a special occasion as there aren’t many.

Ilikeyoursleeves · 09/12/2025 07:35

This looks very cool, I’ve never used an eye mask before! £52 pro rated for this pack of 4! It’s Skin Cycles Eye Matrix Mask, sounds and looks futuristic to me 🤣 I might try one soon what with all the allergy chat on this thread. I have a wedding to go to in a few months and will try one before that in case my eyes end up even puffier on my friends wedding day!

Haha yeah good point @Ilikeyoursleeves

Nice like this today BUT... these sheet masks are something I hoard for a special time that never comes! Must use must use!!

2025istheyeari · 09/12/2025 07:51

Also really pleased with today’s eye masks, need all the help I can get here! This is exactly the kind of product I bought the calendar for- I wouldn’t pay £65 for 5 ( or £52 for 4!). I’m going to use some this weekend the day before I go out and space them out using them when I look especially tired/ need them!!

msmillicentcat · 09/12/2025 07:58

Happy with these eye masks - I also wouldn’t buy them for myself usually but it’s a nice treat. @H3lloMums I do the same, I already have 2 packs of eye masks that I got in previous boxes that I haven’t used, I tend to save them for a special occasion and then completely forget I have them! I’m going to use one of these today as I’m going out tonight 😊

Sunshineo · 09/12/2025 07:59

I usually stick them in my work bag for when I’m living out of hotels. I do a pamper pack and lay in bed eating junk in the evenings 😂 princess slob.

SunMootStars · 09/12/2025 07:59

Totally agree! Think I have some fancy eye mask thingy from two years ago that I was saving but have long since lost. I’ll be using this tonight! Very excited to try.

the cellophane cover is hard to open.

redluckycat · 09/12/2025 08:03

Haha, I also have eye masks in my mask box that I haven’t used…maybe I’ll use those today!

Ilikeyoursleeves · 09/12/2025 08:04

Maybe we need to do a mass group try of the eye masks to encourage each other to try them 🤣. I have my works do this weekend so will try one before that!

Mctm · 09/12/2025 08:13

I'm excited to try the eye masks, my eyes need desperate help! The lady who created SkinCycles does my Botox so pleased to use one of her products. I could never justify spending that much money on eye masks myself!! It's nice Liberty are using less known companies in their BAC

TreesinthePark · 09/12/2025 08:33

I have a stash of eye masks I never use too but decided this morning to give this a go. It's actually quite a nice relaxing and cooling feeling so I need to remember to use them again over Christmas period.
I'm getting ready for work so fashioned a headband over my nose to keep them in place (a bit ninja turtle style) while I get ready.
I've used the MZ cream from yesterday too and I love it. I've got a few moisturisrs on the go but none are as rich and luxurious as this.
Feeling very pampered before work and I'm here enjoying this thread now with about 15 minutes before I need to leave!

Growlybear83 · 09/12/2025 08:48

I’m happy today - I replaced the eye masks with two of the perfumes from the HN calendar. I’ve been trying to sell the eye masks on eBay and Vinted for a couple of months now with no-one even watching them on either.

narniabusiness · 09/12/2025 08:49

Lovely one today. I wouldn’t pay full price for these as I know they don’t work miracles, but I do like to use sheet masks as it feels like such a treat. Value so far is £292 so we are past the original cost of the calendar.

EdinaMonsoon · 09/12/2025 09:10

Pampering morning incoming!! DH & I have our annual posh lunch today so I’m slathering on all the treats as I get ready! Looking forward to seeing the results from the eye mask. I regularly use Patchology version which I think do a great job so interesting to see how they compare.

Hicupping · 09/12/2025 09:21

Learn from my mistakes, put them on in front of a mirror so you get placement right. Otherwise you end up with product on your face outside of the area which gives them lubrication to start sliding down your face and you're sitting there constantly hitching them up. Slippery.

I don't think they did anything for me but might work better just before a night out?

Chickydoo · 09/12/2025 09:24

Well, I have tried the eye masks. Verdict... AMAZING! Seriously thought they wouldn't work on my tired baggy eyes. I didn't even have them on for the full 20 mins. The puffy bags have gone! Completely gone. I know it's only temporary but seriously they do what they say on the tin. I have just bought a couple of packs on Vinted. I am very impressed (I am sure you can tell:))

AndeanFlamingo · 09/12/2025 09:29

@Chickydoo Sounds good! We have our work Christmas party on Thursday so I'm going to try these beforehand.

LancreWowhawk · 09/12/2025 11:14

Another happy camper here - I would never buy something like this for myself, even at a lower price point. I’d be really skeptical of them working and worry about wasting money. It’s going to be lovely to try them out without the guilt.

Ilikeyoursleeves · 09/12/2025 11:39

Does anyone want to do a swap just now or at the end of the calendar? I have my Bibbi perfume on again today and I love it, I’m not keen on the Vyrao though if anyone fancies a perfume swap?

IlovePond · 09/12/2025 12:10

Hi, I have been using masks a little bit recently but have never got round to using the Patchology eye masks I have in the fridge. I will make an effort to use both them and these.

I am not excited about today’s door, but it’s not a DOD for me, either.

EdinaMonsoon · 09/12/2025 12:12

@Chickydoo Same here! I popped them on while my hair mask was doing its thing & I’m very impressed with the results. Clear & glowing with no hint of a bag or shadow 🥳

Unfortunately the MZ Moisturiser has done nothing for me. Left my skin feeling so dry & tight underneath my makeup that I had to apply my regular moisturiser on top of my finished makeup! Odd but Still, I have glowy skin now 😆

shinny · 09/12/2025 13:15

Looking forward to trying the eye masks after the positive verdicts! I was up at 430 so could probably do with trying them now.

TragicMuse · 09/12/2025 14:10

I was a bit underwhelmed with the eye masks but will give them a go!

underthehawthorntree · 09/12/2025 15:15

I loved the eye masks today. And I love the MZ cream too and the serum. Also keen on the lipstick too wore it for a dinner party on Saturday. 3 perfumes is a bit overkill for me and the shampoo was a flop for me.
