💕😌 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💗

Ok if the scent is worth it @eshoe I'm going to have to try these eye masks

[eshoe]

Umm yes @lmaster but I don’t want to try any of the others because I’m afraid I will just be disappointed 😂

[quspork]

Sounds like a nice combo, @eshoe. You've got me thinking about adding the coffee eye patches to my cart now. 

[eshoe]

One is worth it, @quspork- it’s a great and possibly the best SC eye mask!

[itsfi]

The caffeine eye mask and peach lip balm will be popular choices. A lovely plus that they smell good too. Nice to see you picked them up @eshoe.

[eshoe]

Yep I’m guessing the same, @itsfi. They did a great job on both scents! 

[Weetart]

Oooooh I need to try these at some point. The coffee would be a perfect commute mask @eshoe

[eshoe]

Great suggestion, @Weetart! I could use one of these every morning just to wake up:)

[sonnydee]

might have to try this caffeine eye mask @eshoe

[eshoe]

Mmm might, maybe, yes for sure @sonnydee😉 

[Shosh85]

@eshoe  Sounds like a great masking session! I have the caffeine eye mask in my cart and I'm even more excited to try it now! So happy you enjoyed it! ☕️😃

[eshoe]

@Shosh85I think I first heard about the CS Cold Brew from you. Anytime I see/try a coffee mask, I compare it for scent, and this one is worth trying. This is one I wish came in a jar of 30 pairs😊

[Shosh85]

@eshoe  The Caffe Mocha one from the fusion line also has a delicious scent!

[Shosh85]

C is for Cicapair Calming mask

Dr. Jart Cicapair Sheet Mask

This is a super thin cotton sheet mask that was soaking with a green watery serum and smelled like Tiger Grass Cream to me. The fit was good- a little too long at the chin and not quite wide enough by the ears. It adhered very well and was comfortable to wear the half hour I had it on. When I removed it I massaged in the remaining serum and it absorbed quickly but left behind some slight tackiness that took about 20 minutes to absorb. My face looked slightly brighter, felt refreshed, nicely hydrated and was so soft and smooth.

This is one of my most favorite Dr. Jart masks - it makes my skin feel happy. I do wish they'd reformulate it because it kinda annoys me that all those good ingredients are at the bottom (asiatic acid, asiaticoside, madecassic acid, medecassoside - and Cica, which is second to last 🤔 Now that I have other Cica masks and products with Cica higher up in the ingredients, I don't feel so inclined to repurchase this one, but I wouldn't hesitate to use again!

[lmaster]

This mask is a must have I'm my book 😉 @Shosh85 

[Shosh85]

I totally  agree, @lmaster! Glad to hear you love it too! 😃

[itsfi]

@Shosh85, a smile swept over my face when I saw your photo. Agree with you on this being one of your most favorite from the brand. 😍 Dr Jart has been known to reformulate (to me it feels like they do so with some frequency) so here’s hoping a reformulation will come soon, with higher concentrations of the good ingredients. 🤞🏼 

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  A lot of the Dr. Jart masks I've tried have just been kind of "meh" to me. This and the Ceramidin one are definitely my favorites and probably the only ones I could see myself repurchasing at this point. I'm also hopeful because they reformulated the Ceramidin one and I actually like it a tiny better than the old one. 😉

[itsfi]

@Shosh85, There are 3, maybe 4, Dr Jart masks that my face is really fond of - this one, the Ceramidin one (both original and new versions) and the water replenishment one. 

[Weetart]

Oh I love this mask, such a winner @Shosh85

[Shosh85]

@Weetart  It is such a great year-round mask!  Happy to hear you love it too! 😃
