The mask I never imagined I'd need

If there’s one item that sums up the pandemic, it would be a mask (of the facial covering variety). In my world (and perhaps yours), skincare masks could also be considered an acceptable alternative since I’ve never used them more than I have since last March. This is obviously because I’ve pressed pause on all of my personal grooming outsourcing (the one exception being my hair color), including my bikini waxes. But before your imagination runs wild, let it be known that I have been keeping everything neat and tidy, especially since I wear a tennis skirt (around other people) at least three times a week.

Although I’m not happy about this shift to shaving my bikini line, a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do—and this girl has found herself dealing with ingrown hairs and irritation from time to time. Then something amazing happened earlier this week… LAPCOS launched a calming Bikini Mask!

This antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, 100%-cotton sheet mask for “down there” is infused with soothing ingredients like hemp seed oil, aloe vera and grapefruit help alleviate and shaving side effects—and it will come in handy when I get back to Marta for my monthly waxes again. My only concern is finding a good time to use it considering my son is home 24/7—and I certainly wouldn’t want him to be scarred for life if he witnessed me giving this sheet mask a try.

No, this is not me.
