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!
Summer Sunshine - Ice cream ๐ฆ , sunglasses ๐ , SPF ๐งด, check! Once the sun is down (or before it's up), extra care is most necessary. How do you give your skin cooling repair?
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
@eshoe Iโve decided theyโre good:). They caught my attention and now Iโm eyeing the rest of Murads retinol line. Do they also smell like green tea๐ง? - cause I like that.
Loving all your eye patch reviews @heartsmyface !! These sound like ones worth checking out !!
@Kim888 Iโm pleased with them. No subsequent peeling and the depuffing alone made me like them:)
@heartsmyface I'd be happy with depuffing any day!! ๐
@lmaster Right!? Theyโll be good to have in the arsenal for puffy times:).
@heartsmyface, hope these are not too strong for you. ๐ค๐ผ Iโd love to hear what your thoughts are on these after a few days. I passed on them during the sale because they contain retinol - a great skincare ingredient, but my skin canโt seem to handle it, even at the lowest concentrations. ๐
@itsfi I seem to have tolerated them well. No peeling. Iโm well adapted to retinol but wasnโt too sure how sealing patches containing it to my face would turn out. Plus it doesnโt say anywhere, I can find, what the retinol percentage is which isnโt very helpful. Youโd think they would with an ingredient you have to build up tolerance to.
This is from last week โhydration heroโs โ
Co
cocoa & coconut superfood
reviving hydration mask
by dr botanicals
This is a nighttime mask. Applying at night and washing off in the morning. The recommendation is to use this 2-3 times/week
This was not my 1st use of the mask. I really like this one. I have combo skin - more dry during winter. And this has never given my face an oily / greasy feel or appearance in the morning.
The mask has never irritated my skin and I have eczema and rosacea.
I have purchased a 2nd tube of the mask.
โ
That sounds nicely soothing, @Cissy63!
This sounds like a wonderful mask, @Cissy63! Everything about it, each detail you included was quite helpful, too๐๐ผ
Thank you @eshoe. I have enjoyed it ๐
It absolutely sounds repurchase worthy!! @Cissy63
@Cissy63, it says so much about a mask if itโs a repurchased product, ๐ A cocoa and coconut mask sounds fabulous!
Thank you @itsfi. Itโs a winner!
Love the idea of an "open" theme for masking @missy94612! I got a little bit of a head start on it, using a couple of these over the weekend.
Tatcha The Clarifying Clay Mask Exfoliating Pore Treatment 1.7 oz/ 50 mL - if this didn't slot so easily into the open week theme, it probably would have fallen (and still does) into the month's letter theme of P for a potentially pore purifying and pimple pulverizing mask. ๐
Innersense Organic Beauty Detox Hair Mask:
Mented Balms Away Coconut Lip Treatment:
The Tatcha sounds like something my skin would like but that's one expensive mask.
Hmmm @itsfi, the Tatcha sounds like an ideal candidate for promo size pick-up! The jar is rather large, and they do seem to last forever.
@eshoe, for my skin and how I would use the mask, a DS or travel size is definitely the way to go. A full size would probably go bad long before I could make my way through most of it, so it doesnโt make sense for me to pick up a full size.
@itsfi Thanks for the tag! I'm always interested in clay masks - but "ouch!" on the price! A GWP would definitely be the way to go. Esp if you're only using as a spot treatment.
I realized that I forgot to buy Peace Out Oil-Absorbing Pore Treatment Strips . I might as well do it while masks are still a thing in case it goes horribly wrong!
