The Mask is a comedy made in 1994 and was part of the trifecta (the others being "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" and "Dumb & Dumber") that propelled Jim Carrey from unknown to superstar. It also made a star of another unknown actor, this time being Cameron Diaz.
Jim Carrey plays Stanley Ipkiss, a bank clerk and a really nice guy. But, he is a bit of a pushover and never really stand up for himself. After a particularly bad day, he stumbles upon a mask, that he finds out depicts Loki, the Norse god of mischief. When he puts on the mask, he turns into a green faced, wacky, snappy dresser! He's confident, romantic and not afraid to fight for what he believes in, so you could say he just brought out what Stanley is really like inside himself. So, together with his dog, Milo, they go out and paint Edge City red! Well, green really.

The first submarine simulation game I played when I was a kid and despite its retro status, I still find myself playing it once in a while. Even though I mainly played the Amiga version when I was a kid, the Mega Drive version is literally the same and I'm currently trying it out again years later through an emulator.
Plotline

Gameplay
The entire interface gives you that instant feeling that you're inside a submarine and in total command. As you can see from one of my pictures, there are several stations that need to be commanded and waiting for orders ...
Advantages: Leave skin so smooth, easy to use Disadvantages: Takes ages to remove
Occasionally I like to have a pampering night where I sit in front of the TV, do a face mask, paint my toenails and generally do girlie things. One of my favourite face masks to use is the Mudd range of face masks.
Range
The Mudd range is quite varied and includes masks which exfoliate, a medicated mask, masks for men and the original mud mask - which is my favourite.
Packaging
The original face mask comes in 5 inch x 3 inch sachet which is white and brown. Each sachet contains 15ml of the face mask. On the front of the sachet there is a small picture of a woman with the mask applied to her face and I have to admit that it literally looks like she has covered her face in mud! Next to that picture is a slightly larger picture of the same woman with very healthy looking glowing skin.
On the back of the packaging, there is all ...
