💕😌 2024 Masking Challenge 😌💖

[eshoe]

Welcome to the 2024 Masking Challenge! 

This year is going to be a little different - simplified. Easy. Every month will have a new theme, and that's it. Feel free to join in whenever and wherever. Most importantly - have fun!

Spring Fling - Baskets and bouquets, showers of much-anticipated rain...this month's focus is herbal and floral sensory delights 💮

Spoiler

January	Fresh Starts - Time for a re-set, or morning masking? However you see it, this month is all about new beginnings.
February	Winter Love - Whether it's a mask you adore, or something extra-special to care for dry winter skin, this month is for some soothing TLC.
March	March Madness - Competition is in the air! Find a $ dupe of a $$$ mask that is share-worthy? Or find a dupe that works even better than the original? Details, please!
April	Spring Fling - Baskets and bouquets, showers of much-anticipated rain...this month's focus is herbal and floral sensory delights.
May	Dew Drops - May Day lore says to wash your face in the dew you collect in the morning of the first day of May for radiant skin. This month is for absorbing all of that good-for-you H2O.
June	Summer Sunshine - Ice cream, sunglasses, SPF, check! Once the sun is down (or before it's up), extra care is most necessary. How do you give your skin cooling repair?

Thank you @Aaliaa for starting this thread, and giving us a place to share our love for masks💗

@lmaster I may be in the minority here, but I love the smell of the pool lol.  Too bad it wasn't quite amazing enough to live up the price.  At least it was a good one to try and you now know that it's not quite a repurchase.  

[lmaster]

@missjeanie ohhh I do too!!

[missjeanie]

Now I'm thinking of masking in the hot tub @lmaster ... I need to get a pool lol

[lmaster]

@missjeanie I used to have a pool a few years ago,, it was so much work! I wanted to get a better one next year,,, but I'm having second thoughts,,, the lake is so much easier to go to 😆

[missjeanie]

You might be right... I desire the pool but also the pool boy to come with it.  And maybe a maid for the house... a caterer? lol @lmaster a gal can dream!

[lmaster]

@missjeanie oh yes!! I'll take one of each 😅 

[Shosh85]

@missjeanie  Haha! I actually like the smell of pool water too!..... so does that just mean we like the smell of chlorine? 🤔😂

..... and while we're on the subject, I also like the smell of WD40. But I'm super weird, so...

[missjeanie]

@Shosh85 I know I like the smell of Chlorine.  I worked as a lifeguard in high school... the smell walking into the pool every morning was amazing for me.  I'd actually stop and just smell the air whenever I walked in.  I'm going to need to find a can of WD40 in the garage now and give it a sniff... I'm willing to give in to your weird to see if I have been missing out lol

@lmaster, in my experience the biocellulose masks tend to be on the pricier side, so yes, it sure does need to be good!! Sorry this one didn’t quite get there. The packaging is cute. An airplane. ✈️ I have a vague recollection of being on those things. 😂 

[lmaster]

Ohh I bet you do @itsfi memories 🤦

[emaisgr8]

@lmaster  I love the packaging on this one. Too bad it’s so expensive. 

[lmaster]

The packaging is gorgeous @emaisgr8 but definitely not as luxe as the price leads you to believe

[Shosh85]

@lmaster  Yeah, for $7 I definitely would've expected more! Sorry to hear it was unimpressive! 😢

[lmaster]

@Shosh85 nothing like the whole foods masks

[lmaster]

G is for Green tea

This is such a cool mask, I'm glad I traded for it in the motm box 😊
I opened up the pocket that held the green tea leaves in a thin pouch material similar to a tea bag but you could see the leaves through the pouch. I popped it in with the mask and serum and massaged it together for about ten minutes. I then removed the tea leaves and pulled out the mask. I could tell the serum had a slight tint to it now and did smell of green tea. The fit was really good and I didn't notice any tackiness after. It soothed my skin and calmed my redness with delivering hydration and perfect amount of moisturizing. This one is one I want to use again absolutely

@lmaster  This is such a fun concept! So happy to hear it worked out wonderfully for you! 😃 

[lmaster]

I really want to steep my masks lol @Shosh85 😆

[missjeanie]

Ah yes!  I've tried this one and liked it as well @lmaster .  I liked the idea of steeping your masks.  I'm so glad it was a win for you!  If memory serves there are other flavours other than the green as well. 

[lmaster]

Steeping!! 😆 @missjeanie I could not think of the word

[emaisgr8]

@lmaster  This mask sounds great!

[lmaster]

@emaisgr8 I loved it!
