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
Nice @lmaster !!! I feel like itโs always a really fine line between a good exfoliating product and a too aggressive one - glad this worked for you!
@Kim888 thanks!! It's a major underhyped product!!
A bit off theme but Iโm doing a triple mask session this morning. None of these are new to me and the hand and foot masks are repurchases. The foot masks are great for hydrating post foot slough and for prepping my feet for a polish change. They take 15-20 minutes and smell like artificial green apple. The hand masks also have that artificial apple scent even though they boast green tea and tee tree extract.
Iโm not the biggest fan of hydrogel masks anymore cause they always slide around on me but I really enjoy how cooling they remain for the entire masking session. Definitely a type of mask Iโll try to reserve for warmer weather. This one contains castor oil, allantoin, gold and collagen as itโs beneficial ingredients. Itโs got a light slick serum with no distinguishable scent. I get evenly hydrated and plumped skin from it but nothing memorable. Itโs a good filler mask:)
โ
@heartsmyface, I've wondered about this brand. I'm on board with a green apple scent. Hydrogels are probably the material of sheet masks I like the least and are usually the last masks I get to in my stash, but I keep trying them. ๐ It is nice to have one on hand for when it's warm out
@heartsmyface Sounds like a great masking session!
@heartsmyface @Nice session! Iโve tried those hand masks from fff but I havenโt tried anything else from the brand! Agree about the hydrogel masks - they feel nice after the beach but I hate how slippery they are
What a fabulous multi masking sesh!! With an apple scent included! @heartsmyface
Not on theme but I decided I needed to give the mermaid mask another go after seeing @heartsmyface use it !
โ
@Kim888, nice to hear your second time around with the mermaid mask worked out better for you. The balm sounds wonderful.
Anything that has a lilac scent steals my heart @Kim888
@Kim888 Ohhhh, ha, I would have given it an initial โwhat in the name of tar:/โ review as well without the instructions! Iโm glad you enjoyed it diluted and spreadable! The next day softness is so pleasant!
The balm is my favorite product so far! I use a bit as subtle perfume behind my ears as well as a hand cream post gardening! I love itโs versatility:). I tried out their ambrosia serum and also enjoyed it though itโs more an oil than a serum and I applied waaaay too much my first time. the foil sample they gave me lasted for over a week!
Sephora Aloe Face Mask
S is for Sephora
My Thoughts:
@QueenMarceline, sorry about the nail polish remover scent on this one. I agree with @heartsmyface and wonder if it's off; the aloe mask was part of the earlier sheet masks Sephora put out so the scent may be due to the passage of time.
@itsfi Could be, although I have some older masks from Sephora that are also discontinued and I never seemed to have an issue with those. Might be a fluke with this one.
@QueenMarceline Hmmm nail polish remover. Yuck. Too bad!
@ather Good thing this is the only one of those I have on hand, haha.
@QueenMarceline yeah the scent alone would be a deal breaker ๐
@lmaster It was, I'm surprised I even went with it. I think it's due to my total exhaustion (and lack of care) from working so much these past few weeks haha
@QueenMarceline Eee nail polish remover๐ฌ. I wonder if it had gone off or somethingโฆ
with thicker cotton masks I find I have to do a lot more snips to make them conform, but Iโm not sure it would be worth the effort with an acetone fragrance.
@heartsmyface Haha, it was mild/faint. I don't think it was off maybe my sense of smell is just off haha but I got a couple whiffs in the beginning of nail polish remover for sure.
