💕😌 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💗

[sonnydee]

Me too ! @Shosh85 & even happier they came in sets of 5 & not 3

[sonnydee]

Sometime this past week....pet peeve...masks/treatments that they should've not discontinued! Bite beauty OG lip mask & I dew care Goodbye Blemish Spot treatment🤦😥😥😥😥😥😥RIP. thank goodness I stocked up!

[itsfi]

It’s such a let down when the good ones get discontinued @sonnydee! Happy to hear you’re stocked up! 😃 Of course you are! Gotta keep the skin happy! 

[sonnydee]

🤗 you know me to well @itsfi

@sonnydee  I love the OG bite mask!!

[eshoe]

I just opened my Champagne BITE last night, @sonnydee. thankfully they last awhile, but knowing I won’t be able to replace it 🤨

[sonnydee]

I still have some big ones I haven't opened. Im waiting for a good gwp to try out lanolips ointment (3 fruity set) but I love love love the lemonaid I have & that will most likely be my replacement for my bite. @eshoe

[eshoe]

The consistency is the same, @sonnydee - but the wider opening for the Lanolips is a challenge for me🙄

[sonnydee]

A comparison pic pretty please @eshoe

[eshoe]

It doesn’t look like much, @sonnydee - but it’s a huge difference. I waste so much of the Lanolips, and I like it. Which makes wasting it all the more frustrating. Glossier balm dot calm on the left bc it is similar but not as long-lasting.

[sonnydee]

Oh yes. I can see how that wastes....🤔 hmmmm @eshoe thank you for the comparison pic I appreciate you & it greatly. 😘I wonder if the lemonaid is the same, will have to look. 

[eshoe]

Awww thank you for the kind words, @sonnydee 🤗 It’s a small thing to do for the Swatch Master;)

Last week’s “Z” was for zen.

Maskingdom I  Wish “Zen” Mask is a 2-step mask, but unlike the other Maskingdom masks I’ve used, the first step with the masks from this “I Wish” series is the sheet mask and the second and final step is a light, but viscous serum that is neither goopy nor gooey, and, in terms of its consistency, feels like a cross between a serum and a gel moisturizer.

Density-wise, it’s pretty standard for sheet masks, maybe slightly leaning on the thinner side – the material is not so thin as to cause trouble pulling the mask apart or adjusting it to fit the shape and features of the face, nor is it so thick that it lifts off or separates from the face during the half hour of wear time. This seems to be standard with the Taiwanese masks that I've tried - the quality of the material and ingredients is sound and the packaging, especially with Maskingdom masks range from super cute and whimsical, like this one, to beautifully artistic. This particular mask is saturated without being drenched in or dripping with, the subtle, fresh, and  soft, floral scented, slightly viscous essence that absorbs quickly, and without any tack or stickiness, leaving the skin feeling hydrated,  bouncy, and with a fresh-faced brightness.

I’ve been very pleased with the Maskingkom sheet masks that I’ve used so far. This one is no exception and is one I’d happily repurchase. I’m looking forward to trying the other masks from the “I Wish” series; actually, from Maskingdom, in general. ♥️

[faeriegirl]

This one sounds amazing @itsfi!

[itsfi]

I was really happy with this one @faeriegirl. The Maskingdom masks have been a hit for me. 🥰

[lmaster]

This looks and sounds like a masking dream come true @itsfi 

[itsfi]

Such a good mask @lmaster. The 2-step makes it convenient for travel.

[ather]

@itsfi  The packaging is everything!! 😍

[itsfi]

Super cute, right @ather?!!! The packaging on every Maskingdom mask I’ve used has been fantastic! 💗💕

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  oooh, this one sounds wonderful! The artwork really is so pretty - it'd be hard for me to throw this one away! 😃😍

[itsfi]

Yeah @Shosh85; I’m not sure I will throw the packaging away. 😉
