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
After seeing @itsfi having so much success with the JMSolution brand, I decided it was time to try some out too!
JMsolution Cure in Colla-Biome Two-Steps Eye Mask
This eye mask is divided into two sections, one with the serum and one with the eye masks. You are supposed to squeeze the serum so that it releases into the section with the masks, making sure to fully saturate the masks.
Material: Cotton
Serum: Very slightly slimy/gel-like consistency that was thin but not runny.
Scent: None that I could detect
Fit: They were a good size, comfortable to wear and stayed on pretty well
Wear Time: About a half hour
Tack: None
Results:
Smooth, hydrated and noticeably brighter
Repurchase?
I still have a few more of these to use, but I'd definitely repurchase when I'm out (if they're not too hard to find - found these at Marshall's๐ฌ)
This is interesting, I've never seen an eye mask like this before @Shosh85
@lmaster Me either! I've seen full face masks like this, but not an eye mask ๐
This one is another love!
Great fit, no crazy strong scent
Plenty of extra serum
Wear time was 15 minutes
My skin felt hydrated and balanced without a ton of moisturizing which is what I was hoping for.
In terms of feeling balanced my skin wasn't dripping with serum that wasn't absorbed, it was perfect
@lmaster I've heard such good things about this brand! I think @WinglessOne reviewed some before that sounded great as well!
@Shosh85 Yep, Iโm an Abib fan. Their Heartleaf Stone cleansing โsoapโ is my nightly PM facial cleanser, and their Mild Acidic pH Heartleaf Fit Sheet Mask is still my skinโs favorite sheet mask by anyone. I like some of their other masks and products, too. Iโm glad you liked this one, @lmaster !
@WinglessOne @Shosh85 I was so impressed by this one, I love it when you don't expect much and get blown away ๐
February 2024
I went through more masks this month, not sure why. More new-to-me sheet masks as well. I was delighted with most of the masks I used; disappointed with just one. Details in the spoilers.
Overall, another good month of masking. Will be interesting to see what March masking looks like, as my allergies / hay fever can start to act up. ๐ฌ
@itsfi Holy moly! So many great ones here - will definitely have to look into some of these! Too bad the Vitamasque wasn't impressive - I know I would've bought that one based on appearance alone ๐
Oh my gosh the hearts are beautiful!! Such a bummer it wasn't great, but definitely I'll need to look into a few you've listed here! @itsfi
I know @lmaster; I really wanted the Vitamasques to work well. ๐ฃ It was a case of something looking nice but not having the substance to it that you want or hope. Disappointing.
โ
@lmaster Effectiveness is most important, but I agree, a banana scent would've been a nice bonus! Glad you saw great results! ๐
Normally I would of been incredibly disappointed with not having a banana scent, fortunately this one shined with no help from added fragrance ๐ @Shosh85
@lmaster, there was a period where Facetory put out some really nice masks under their own brand, like this one. If only they included a banana scent.
I know but it really was so good, it didn't matter @itsfi
โ
@lmaster I like the sound of a creamy serum! Definitely sounds like the type of mask where you need manually apply the serum from the package!
I mean the serum definitely didn't stay on the mask lol @Shosh85 I think this is a first for me
@lmaster I wonder if it would've helped to put some directly on your skin first, then place the mask on top? I've had to do this with certain masks before. ๐ค๐คทโ
