💕😌 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💗

@nuinui933  A good watermelon scent is definitely a weakness for me! 😋🍉

[lmaster]

@Shosh85 this mask is calling my name 😊

[Shosh85]

@lmaster I know what you mean - it definitely called mine 😉

[missjeanie]

@Shosh85 I was willing to add this mask to a list based solely on the packaging.... but after your review... well well.... what a wonderful watermelon masking session!

[Shosh85]

@missjeanie  Yulp, I really enjoyed this one! I've only tried a few masks from this brand, but so far I've liked them all! Can't wait to try the others in my stash! 😃🍉

[QueenMarceline]

@Shosh85 I don't know what it is about watermelon in sheet masks but I feel like it just works for me. One of my all time favorite masks (ever) is the SEPHORA COLLECTION After-Sun Mask - Watermelon Watermelon 

[Shosh85]

@QueenMarceline  Love a good watermelon mask! If it's scented like watermelon it's even better! 😃🍉 That Sephora mask is probably the only mask from the brand I'd repurchase 

[QueenMarceline]

@Shosh85 Honestly, it's hands down the best SC mask they'd ever offered. I liked some of the SC as filler masks but I find myself purchasing them less and less nowadays. However, that watermelon one... is stunning after getting a bit burnt out in the sun.

[quspork]

Sounds like a good one, @Shosh85!  

[Shosh85]

@quspork  Yup, definitely a winner!  🏆 

[Samtian]

@Shosh85 Ooh pretty packaging and it sounds lovely!

[Shosh85]

@Samtian  Vitamasques does a great job with their packaging - it definitely makes them harder to resist! 😉

[Mellmars1185]

@Shosh85 Ooo such a pretty package! I love fruity masks

[Shosh85]

@Mellmars1185  I really love fruity masks too, especially when they also have a nice fruity scent! 🍉

[itsfi]

@Shosh85, there are a couple more sheet mask lines in Vitamasques that I've yet to try but this line seems to be the frontrunner for me. So far my favorite is the lychee one but I've yet to try this watermelon version. The results sound great (as does the watermelon scent and that ingredient list too) so I might have to make a note to use it sooner rather than later. BTW, fun background in your pic. 😁

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  This is my third Vitamasques mask (the two others were 3-step masks) and so far I've liked them all. Still have Lychee, Pineapple and Cherry to try. I saw a Blueberry one at Walmart that I'll be getting once my no-buy is done  😉

I think the only thing I don't like about these masks is that they don't put expiration dates on them. 🤷🏻

[itsfi]

@Shosh85, the blueberry one has been on my list for a while; I just keep getting distracted by other sheet masks. One day ... 😆

Still trying to finish up a little 2021 stock, but here's Holika Holika's Mugwort Sheet Mask

Like a lot of this line, this mask was pretty enjoyable. It was reallllly drippy out of the package so definitely one that should be put on while leaning over the sink. The fit could have used another half inch or so in width, but overall it was ok. There was a slight herbaceous scent and that didn't last terribly long. After removal my skin felt smooth and plump. Lots of good hydration. I would definitely pick this one up again if I saw a good deal on it or didn't already have 100,000 other masks waiting in the wings.

@quspork 

Mugwort is a new discovery for me. I really like it. I see this brand at Marshalls sometimes and will look for the mugwort flavor.

[quspork]

@nuinui933 I'm trying to expand my mugwort obsession beyond masks at this point. It's been so nice for brightening my skin and is just a lovely ingredient overall. Have you found any mugwort products that you're loving?

[nuinui933]

@quspork  

I like the I'm From Mugwort essence and the Round Lab Mugwort toner. Both brands have mugwort sheet masks too but I haven't tried them yet - trying a no buy at the moment, but I'll try both soon and am putting this Holika Holika one on my list to look for.
