@Shanus  Tonight I treated myself.  First I washed my face with the Keratoplast cleanser by Mario Badescu.  Then I applied a Flower & Tonic mask (something I rarely do) and then toner and moisturizer by Mario.  I feel wonderful.

@Katcat1   I've been sleeping in my hair conditioning mask once a week (towel inside old pillowcase) & using a heavier eye balm and face cream than ever would in summer. Put warm washcloth on and lie back and relax while it sinks in...Ahhh! You're really hooked on MB now. Have a full routine of his products? Switched over?

The cosmetic industry should be thankful for the Internet or they would be filing bankruptcy.  A lot of women shop by Internet alone (I am one of them) and yes, there are more sales which is a good thing.  I still wear makeup -- a light foundation that is sweatproof so it does not get on the mask, a little mascara, a little blush and I wear lipstick in the car because I don't have my mask on (I love lipstick).  I am not going to a let a mask stop me from feeling good.

@Katcat1   AGREE!   I still put on the same make up as I did when I went into the office,  minus the light application of mineral foundation (use a touch ups instead).  I still wear lipstick and have to remember not to reapply before I leave the house when I'm going to be wearing a mask.  If I'm at home or out for a walk,  I have on my lipstick.  Eyemake up (shadow, liner, mascara), blush and naturally skin care are all the same as before.  It makes me feel good and finished,  and I enjoy putting it on.

I have a lightweight concealer the same as my skin tone. Sometimes, I just do spf, touch up a few places under eyes, around nose, etc. w/ concealer. Foundation in this heat/humidity and add a mask...nah!

Since I dont wear any makeup or lipcolor when wearing a mask, I havent been using much of these at all!

I figure that once we can go without a mask I will have to replenish my makeup and etc!

My friend works for a major beauty brand you would all recognize. She said that direct to consumer sales are keeping the business afloat. Maybe not MU, but hair care and at-home color for sure, as well as other bath, body and beauty items. Happy that she has been working and is no longer in danger of furlough after today's date, as she was a month ago.

@Shanus  This is the first skincare line that I absolutely love.  I started with his Buttermilk moisturizer, Chamomile toner and Keratoplast cleanser.  Then I started purchasing other products and so far like them all.  I love the way he colored his products.  It's fun to have aqua cleanser, mint green mask, lavender facial spray, etc.  The only thing I regret is not knowing about his line sooner.  I must say it is reasonably priced.  I pay $18 for 2 oz. of moisturizer.

@nyc1  I know.  We are not going to let a mask and COVID 19 stop us from wearing makeup, especially lipstick.  LOL  Have a great week.
