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!
March Madness - Competition is in the air. Find a worthy dupe of a ๐ฐmask that is share-worthy? Or find a dupe that works even better than the original? Details, please!
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
@itsfi oh dear.. how can giving things away result in being kicked out of a group? Maybe it is for the best @heartsmyface . Maybe you will find a better group that supports this.
@itsfi Both the Sisley and Dior masks sound so nice! Do you usually keep the Dior on longer than 1 minute?
@Shosh85, they both surprised me when I first used them. Surprised too (and also not too surprised ๐คฃ) that I picked up full sizes. I don't think you need to spend $$$ to find good masks but these are are quite good! ๐ With the Dior One-Minute, it depends how much time I have - I usually have it on anywhere from 1 - 10 minutes, sometimes more if I get caught up with whatever I'm doing while I have on the mask. The older formulation contained BHA / salicylic acid and I tend to keep that to the oilier parts of my face, but this new reformulation doesn't contain a BHA so I have left it on the drier parts of my face for a bit longer than usual.
@itsfi oh wow what a luxe mask for sure! Sorry the eye holes were wonky for you
@lmaster, it's amazing what I find when I go through my stash of things. ๐ Openings for eyes can be a bit tricky with any masks; thankfully, I have my trusty mini scissors to help with adjustments. ๐
@itsfi Sounds like these luxe products worked well for you. The shape of the CDP mask is interesting.
@Mellmars1185, The Dior and the Sisley have been ones Iโve loved for some time. Happy that a little goes a long way with both though.
@itsfi Ooh this session looks so luxe and lovely. I bet that was a really nice tlc day for your skin and hair. Hum, I have that Orbie foil i think in my stash ๐ I have been very curious about the Dior Dreamskin Skin Perfector is sounds amazing. Thank you for that description of it ๐คฉ
I kinda hope it gets a sample /trial in the Rewards Bazaar. I'd feel more comfortable testing it out on a mini. But there's alot of D'ior I want to experiment lol
@CynthieLu, completely understand wanting to try it out first! I would love to see a sample size of the Dior mask as a promo gwp. ๐ They offered the original version as a foil a long time ago. A deluxe size would be great, something where you could get 2 or 3 uses out of it.
Dior has so many beautiful products - makeup, skincare, fragrance, etc. โฅ๏ธ Which products are you most interested in trying?
@itsfi It seems like you were able to have a little self care during a tough week. Hopefully it helped make you feel a little better. The CdP mask sounds interesting. Iโm interested in how it moulds to your skin. It sounds so interesting. I never understood the eye flaps. I couldnโt use the flaps on my eye itโs just not for me. The shape of this mask is also intriguing to me. It sounded great but maybe thereโs other masks with close to the same results. I hope you are feeling better. Virtual hugs!
@ather, I was skeptical too when they said it would mould to the skin but lo and behold it adhered and fit better at the end of my mask sesh! I was so surprised!
I donโt get eye flaps; conceptually I can see how they might add to the masking experience but in practice, itโs not something I find to be a feature that elevates a mask above another one. Thatโs just my opinion though. If anything, I just use them to cover more surface area under my eyes. I suspect the rationale for them is that it helps with relaxing and unwinding - close eyes, zone out, etc., but I feel like it causes me anxiety if I were to use them - Iโd be constantly worried about the serum running into my eyes.
@itsfi I definitely agree. Serum in your eyes is no fun!!
@itsfi it really seems like the dior mask is making the rounds and having a resurgence in popularity! I do love the idea of flash masks!
@Kim888, the mask was OOS for the longest time which went some ways in bringing more attention to it and this reformulation. It performs pretty much the same as the original even though it now just contains AHA and not AHA and BHAs.
@itsfi Nice lineup! I love the scent of the Dior Dreamskin!
It smells so good @heartsmyface! Their prestige skincare line also has that beautiful Dior rose scent. ๐
@itsfi I always drool a little bit over Oribe. I need to try more! If only it wasn't so pricey ๐ค.
@CookieGirl1, Oribe has some beautiful hair care products (and candles now too)! Itโs a splurge, for sure. What Oribe products have you tried?
@itsfi I've honestly only tried samples so I never really got a good idea for them. I mean, I liked what I tried but I haven't talked myself into purchasing a full size. I was actually going to grab one of the mini duos that was up on Sephora's site but it sold out a couple of weeks ago.
