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
Thin milky serum sounds great @WinglessOne
F is for Focus and Fresh Food

I laughed at the "masky" scent feedback and then I thought, is that good or bad, @Kim888? I love using eye gel patches underneath my sheet mask, especially when I morning mask, but it is so interesting that the eye patches in this mask dissolve!!! Interesting that your undereye area stayed tacky for so long.
That's too bad about the Cranberry mask being more meh, @Kim888 but at least the Deep Focus sounds like it turned out well!
@Kim888 Oooh, the Deeep Focus Mask sounds great! I've heard of dissolvable eye patches before, but haven't yet tried them! They sound interesting...and fun! I love that you described the scent as "masky" haha! It's not as good as fresh & fruity, but it could definitely be worse!
Dissolving eye patches is so interesting @Kim888 What will mask creators think of next?!
Wish it had a fruity scent too @Kim888 chemical scents are not appealing
Love Mediheal, @itsfi! I don't think I've tried one of the reformulations yet but the idea of using visual cues with the imprint on the mask is an interesting one. I can definitely see that being helpful for newer maskers or even for multitasking maskers who might not being paying particular attention to the clock or how the mask is feeling against their skin.
@quspork, do you have any favorites from the brand? I noticed that they have in the past done a lot of collabs - with Line Friends characters and BTS, but the collabs seem to be with new packaging and not necessarily new masks. I was surprised to learn from this new redesign that the left side of the area above my upper lip is the first to dry out. I would have put money on it being my cheeks first, which, itโs a good thing I didnโt actually put money on that. ๐
@itsfi Love it! Such a creative way to incorporate the theme!
I agree, the Mediheal masks I've tried have been nice, but nothing super amazing.
It's funny, I remember seeing the word MEDIHEAL on a mask I did once, but I didn't read the directions and didn't realize it had a purpose! Haha! I'll have to watch out for that when I use my other masks from the brand ๐๐
@Shosh85, yeah, itโs interesting to see how different brands fall out of categories for me the more sheet masks I use and how many skin needs change as Iโve aged. I still like Mediheal sheet masks and most masks by them are ones I would happily use again - theyโre solid and I know what to expect; I donโt instinctively jump at the chance to purchase them... unless thereโs a new mask I happen upon, then Iโm sure my knee jerk reaction is โoooh? What is this?!โ ๐ Some things never change. ๐ ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ๐
That is definitely a unique way to choose a mask @itsfi
Ha! ๐ Ohhh, unique. You just gave me a "U" for one of the letters of the week. Thank you @lmaster! ๐ค What's left of the sheet masks I want to use up by the end of the year are grouped by a mask's purpose, so I thought this would be more of a blind pick.
@itsfi This mask sounds neat! Love the scrabble tile idea.
Thank you @emaisgr8! Gotta put the Scrabble tiles to good use. lol. ๐
That's a cool way to pick a mask! Thanks for your thoughts. Miss you too @itsfi ๐ค
Thank you @veronika23! My skin is just beginning to mend from breaking out after using a concealer that didn't agree with my skin and dealing with "maskne", and I didn't want to risk aggravating it with a mask drawn completely at random, so I did this instead. I do enjoy the "blind pick" challenge - it's a lot of fun. โค๏ธ I'll revisit it again and again during the rest of the year. ๐
@itsfi oh no! I hate when that happens. At least you know what made you breakout... and totally understand why you wouldn't want to completely blind pick a mask. Hope it clears up fast. ๐
@veronika23, thank you, V! ๐ I didnโt even consider the concealer could be the culprit until a BIC lovely @danielledanielle posted about a similar result from the concealer. ๐ So thankful she mentioned it; otherwise, Iโd probably still be reaching for it and making things worse!! ๐ Now I know, and my zit zapper products have been working overtime. ๐ Good thing about it is that Iโm going through my stash at a faster pace. ๐คช๐๐คฃ๐
@itsfi Ohhh. It's good someone posted about it then! Hahaha well at least nothing will be going to waste... I've been having a hard time using all my products/doing a full routine... I really need to use up what I have before it goes bad. ๐
