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 ๐ฎ
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 masks๐
Iโm very happy that I tried this mask @Shosh85. It has become part of my masking routine.
Sounds absolutely fabulous!! @Loretta55
Iโm very happy with the results @lmaster.
@Loretta55 Oh Iโm glad youโre feeling better!
And I am. Josie fan. I love her body creams. I will need to check out her masks!
I am also a huge Josie fan @Cissy63. I even got to ask her a question when she had a chat her on BIC. My husband has developed an allergy to scents so the only scents that I can wear are from Josie. Most of Josieโs products really work for me.
Thank you very much for the well wishes.
@Loretta55 I'm glad you are feeling better. That looks like a great mask. I've not done as much masking as I would like because I never have time in the morning these days. A 5-minute mask may be doable, though! ๐
This mask and Dior Capture Dreamskin 1-Minute Mask 2.5 oz / 75 mL are my two quick working mask that give me dependable results @PrettyPaint. Thank you very much for the well wishes.
This sounds like it gave you excellent results, @Loretta55! I have not heard of this one, I am going to take a peek at it. It sounds ideal - short and to the point.
That is my favorite kind of mask when I am short on time @eshoe short and to the point.
Good to hear your feeling better ๐ฉท @Loretta55
Glowing all day you say? And it's quick and easy? This sounds like a great mask โ๐
I kept looking at myself @CynthieLu and it actually appeared like I was wearing highlighter but I was not.
That sounds interesting @Loretta55! I love fast masks too
Highly recommended @Kim888.
@Loretta55 Sorry you haven't been feeling good, but glad you are feeling better. That mask sounds nice!
Thank you very much @Samtian. The results were good for such a short masking time.
From the first week of the year, for Winter Skin Relief SOS:
For some extra TLC this cold season, I have been *trying* to incorporate my DERMAFLASH DERMAPORE Ultrasonic Pore Extractor & Serum Infuser Icy Pink #more frequently. But before that, I started off with the Pixi Skin Treats Glow O2 Oxygen Mask. As opposed to bubbling sheet masks, wash-off ones like this are one of my favorite ways to give my skin a little extra cleansing while masking. It was during a Sephora Masterclass with Kate Somerville that she mentioned oxygen is an antibiotic. It suddenly became clear to me why the topical use of a bubbling mask could be so beneficial. So when my skin is feeling just โyucky,โ I reach for this near scentless gel that gently foams.
Next up was the detoskin Green Tea-Time Mask. There are a few varieties of this line, including an Oatmeal Cleanse which I found rather mediocre (somewhat rigid sheet, not-so-great fit, etc.) and a Lily Floris Mask that is better but falls into filler territory. Suffice it to say my expectations were pretty minimal; as long as it didnโt cause irritation, I would be happy.
Upon opening, I was delighted to find my favorite blend of mask characteristics. Drenched in a creamy white serum, the pillowy-soft sheet was on the thinner side. Masks like this are ones I immediately commit to memory; both the Heimish pH 5.5 and Cica Live sheets are similar material. The scent is soothing, maybe more green tea parfum than something I would sip, but wonderfully pleasant. These masks tend to last at least 20 minutes, and they tend to linger on my skin into the 45 minute range because they are just so cozy, I do not want to remove them! I left it on around 30 minutes and removed, letting everything settle and soak in. This did not leave much tack, although my daughter asked why my face was โso slimyโ shortly after, so maybe I am just used to it ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
Ingredients
โ
I used the Dermaflash after applying my serum, which was the Perricone MD Plasma this night. After using this for a few months, mainly as an infuser, I cannot commit to saying whether or not it has made a huge difference. My skin is not any worse, and it is the dead of winter, so maybe? I tried using it as an extractor, and maybe it was too close to post Biorรฉ strip time, but I did not see any residual on the devise. Maybe it is just user error! I will keep trying, though.
***eta there is a noticeable โzappingโ sensation during the serum infusion. It is not painful, but I definitely feel little โsparks.โ I donโt mind it at all, it makes me suspect that it might in fact be doing its job๐
โ
The shape of it surprised me. Somehow I imagined this tool to be like a skincare shop-vac ๐คฃ
Finally, the SEPHORA COLLECTION #LIPSTORIES Lip Balm in Time to Party is a light salmon sparkly balm that feels nourishing and lasts well throughout my masking session. It is pleasant enough that I plan to pick up another shade or two during the next SC sale to have around the house.
โ
@eshoe, always nice to have a green tea mask on hand. ๐ต
Yes, it is, @itsfi ๐๐ผ
@eshoe Oooh, everything about that sheet mask sounds amazing! ๐
I highly recommend. It, @Shosh85. I just used it again last night it is was a reminder to stop by TJ Maxx to see if there are any still available!
