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
Ok I've used the rose version, so looks like this will be another addition to the family @WinglessOne ๐๐ป thank you
This is so interesting @WinglessOne! Too bad they didn't keep some of the good ingredients in the "clean" version.
Thank you for the direct comparison, @WinglessOne!! Nice, I guess, that there's no overt difference in effectiveness.
Post-sun masking, for some soothing and Deep-Moisturizing:
@eshoe Both of these sound pretty decent! The Huxley mask definitely sounds like a great summer mask - do you keep this one in the fridge?
No but Iโve thought about it, @Shosh85! Itโs too big for my mini fridge, I did try๐ it seems like a masks that just needs to be chilled, though-I am going to do that for next time.
The gel mask sounds interesting @eshoe you say you feel your skin is tightened,, do you think it's drying at all?
No, I donโt think itโs drying my skin, @lmaster. it doesnโt feel that way once itโs removed. I just find it unusual when gel or cream masks that arenโt detox masks dry and tighten in the skin. I might be applying too thin of a layer, will note that for next time!
Now I gotta ask what your favorite cica mask is @eshoe or ones you would repurchase ๐
I wish I had a list to go off of, @ShortErica ๐ however, most Cica masks I have tried have been good; this was probably the most ill-fitting of all. I am going to start using a physical journal to track my mask notes next month, for one year. Curious to see how that will pan out!
The Huxley mask sounds nice, @eshoe. I've found that I need to rinse most wash off masks somewhere in the 10 to 15 minute time frame anyway, so the eventual drying probably wouldn't be too much of a deal breaker for me.
If you donโt mind fragrance either, @quspork @itโs a nice mask to have on hand for when you donโt want to have to think about masking/what youโre putting on your skin. Enzyme and peels kind of stress me out, this kind of mask I can just forget about.
This week themes d for detoskin and it's a bubbly mask

Oh bummer about the stripping @lmaster. I don't recall feeling that way with bubble masks but it happens to me a lot with foaming cleansers. Why do they make me just a little too clean?! At least you can focus on buying better masks than this one! ๐
@ShortErica yep some foaming cleansers are too drying for me too
Too bad about the stripping, @lmaster. I've unfortunately felt that with the couple of bubble masks that I've tried as well.
I will admit @quspork I didn't think that would happen ๐ฉ I had high hopes
@lmaster Too bad this one stripped your skin! A lot of bubble masks do that to me. Tasting it doesn't sound delightful either! ๐คข
I was so hopeful too @Shosh85 after I felt how soft my skin was,, then it turned extremely dry ๐ญ why oh why
Oh goodness, stripped skin is definitely NOT what I want from a sheet mask, @lmaster! Bummer because the scent sounds really interesting.
I am having trouble responding to tags, but I read your reply and the Biossance rose mask is no longer here, I just noticed that! I see it still on the brand's site, but it makes me a little concerned. Hopefully it won't be discontinued anytime soon.
