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?

@lmaster @Shosh85 I'll have to try to smell the packet again when I get home tonight!

Shosh85 · ‎11-10-2020

@lmaster I wouldn't be surprised if you don't smell it either! I seem to be more sensitive to scent than most and the scent on this was pretty faint.

missjeanie · ‎11-10-2020

Oh man!!! I posted pictures from my laptop!!! Super excited!!

Shosh85 · ‎11-10-2020

@missjeanie Yay!

itsfi · ‎11-10-2020

@missjeanie, woohoo! 🙌🏼

lol, small joys in life today are bringing it for me @itsfi !

Catching up! S is for Sorry

I felt like this was an intensely saturated medium thickness/ very flexible and molding to your face. I didn't feel like it was jelly necessarily, looked like a thick white serum. The scent I recall was more on the herbal side. Wear time was 15 minutes, after removing, I felt like the serum was way too heavy for my skin. My face started feeling itchy on my forehead and cheek, and red splotches appeared. I went ahead washed the serum off and applied REN Clean Skincare Evercalm™ Anti-Redness Serum and it helped instantly. What I liked about the mask was the sheet itself. The scent was meh, way too much serum and it irritated my skin. Cute packaging but a miss for me

Boo @lmaster! Expecting soothing but getting itchiness sounds bad. Glad the REN helped.

lmaster · ‎11-13-2020

There was something in this my skin did not want any part of @ShortErica 😣 the serum was very strange to begin with

ShortErica · ‎11-13-2020

I hope you can find out what it was so you can avoid it in the future @lmaster

lmaster · ‎11-14-2020

I have not even really looked into it yet @ShortErica the past two weeks have been busy busy busy for me 😣

ShortErica · ‎11-14-2020

I'm feeling that way too and with the holidays coming (even with covid) I feel like decorating and cleaning will make us even busier @lmaster!

lmaster · ‎11-15-2020

I can't even believe it's almost Thanksgiving @ShortErica 🤦

missjeanie · ‎11-10-2020

@lmaster gahhhh! Glad the Ren helped with the itchiness. Itchy is never a quality to look for in a mask. Cute package though.

lmaster · ‎11-10-2020

I've never had a reaction like this @missjeanie 😣 extremely unpleasant!!

sonnydee · ‎11-10-2020

That is soooooo cute! @lmaster dang packaging, they get you to buy it even before flipping it over!

lmaster · ‎11-10-2020

A received a couple of these from facetory @sonnydee they are darn cute!! Did you like this one??

sonnydee · ‎11-10-2020

I only have the I'm sorry ones that I bought via Amazon. This wasn't included @lmaster i havent found any of these at TJ/M

Shosh85 · ‎11-09-2020

@lmaster Yikes! Itchy, splotchy redness would definitely be a pass for me too! I'm almost positive I would've bought this just for the packaging! - it's just too bad that was the best part about it!

lmaster · ‎11-10-2020

The serum was very strange too @Shosh85 it's a bummer!!

Salmon egg extract for gross week 😉🐟

Foreverskin Salmon Pore Care Mask

This is a medium thickness black cotton sheet mask that was drenched with a super sudsy serum. It had a pleasant scent that smelled mostly sweet/fruity to me, but there may have been just a hint of floral. It had a great fit, just a tad too long at the chin. It adhered well and the soft stretchy cotton was comfortable to wear the half hour I had it on. I pressed in leftover serum that was just very slightly tacky but it all absorbed in less than 10 minutes. My face looked a smidge brighter, and my skin felt hydrated and soft and smooth.

I might not be the best person to put the pore claims to test, since that's not really a problem area for me, but I did love the results I got! This is the second Salmon mask from the line that I've tried so far, and they were both great, though I do think I liked the whitening version a bit more.

The long ingredient list:
