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
@missjeanie, happy birthday month! ๐ Your nieces sound adorable. Mine also looooves sparkle. ๐ The When mask is a beauty! I hear ya on added fragrance - while I prefer it not be included, I can (and do) certainly appreciate a lovely scent. As for Kiehl's, I like the body moisturizer. Their masks are ones that I generally consider to be okay. Of all their masks, this calendula and aloe one is the one I gravitate most towards, but not so much for major hydration. I like it as a soothing mask that provides some hydration - a nice one if I've been out in the sun and need something gentle to soothe / calm the skin. It can be a nice one too, to use a day or two after a professional peel, but it's not a mask I'd consider a "must have."
Thanks @itsfi , Birthday this year was much more subdued than years past but Iโm ok with that. I actually think I have a deluxe size of the Kiehlโs body moisturizer from a kit around here somewhere. Iโll give it a shot today!
@missjeanie, yeah, most birthdays are probably more subdued this year with all that is going on. I'm happy that you were able to do a birthday shopping spree! Glad you treated yourself. Let me know how you like the Kiehl's moisturizer. In the wintertime, I like to apply an oil after drying off after a shower, letting the oil absorb a little and and then sealing it all in with the Kiehl's.
@itsfi I tried the creme de corp body moisturizer yesterday and I'm kinda torn... There's no scent to it. Now Iknow this is probably a good thing, as it'll let my perfume shine, and I shouldn't want to put fragrance on my skin.... but... I do love a lovely fragrance in my body products (dang that SDJ is so yummily scented). I did feel like it actually gave a good layer of moisture to my skin though. It was thicker than I'd anticipated and sank in nicely on my legs, on my decollate it appeared to leave a lot more glow than some of the others I've been using, though admittedly I'm new on the body moisturizer bandwagon. I've got likely another 3 or 4 applications in the bottle and I'm curious to try it out longer term, first impression I'm feeling like this one is good for cooler months where I'm naturally more dry.

Another blind pick from last week

@lmaster Pretty packaging and great results sounds wonderful to me! Glad to hear you enjoyed it! ๐
@Shosh85 it was a lost wonder in my collection ๐ thanks to the theme, it was found ๐
The results sound good @lmaster and the ingredient list looks nice, too!
@itsfi I hope I can find more,, when I do ever get the chance to go out ๐ฃ
Ohhh. ๐ Hang in there! Fingers crossed ๐ค๐ผ that your store stocks these @lmaster and has a good supply when you can make your way there again.
Love the packaging on this one @lmaster . I'll end up remembering you liked this one based on that alone.
@missjeanie it is really pretty!! And worked wonderfully! ๐
G is for Gudetama and T is for Tighter. Thanks to the lovely @emaisgr8 forsending me this one!
The Creme Shop Gudetama Tighter 'n' Brighter Sheet Mask
This is a cotton sheet mask, that was white with cute little pictures on it. It was drenched with serum and had a lemony scent. It fit like a classic Creme Shop mask - the whole circumference of the mask was too big and the space between the eyes was too wide. ๐ฅด I kept it on for about 35 minutes and it had a cool and refreshing feel the entire time it was on. When I removed it, there was hardly any serum left on my face and it wasn't sticky or tacky at all. My face looked a little brighter and my skin felt smooth and lightly hydrated.
I thought this was a decent mask with good results, and while it's not my favorite Creme Shop mask, it's one I wouldn't hesitate to use again! Thanks again, emaisg8!
I'm glad you enjoyed this mask @Shosh85 . I need to pull this one out myself to use.
@emaisgr8 It was really nice! Thanks again for this one! You can't go wrong with Gudetama! ๐
Awww, it's Gudetama! I loved the illustrations on this sheet mask and agree it's on the wider side as far as masks go @Shosh85! The bacon eye brows on this mask always make me smile.
@itsfi I don't ever expect a Creme Shop mask to fit perfectly, but it's not the worst fitting mask I ever tried, so there's that ๐ The bacon eyebrows is probably my favorite part! ๐๐ฅ
So true @Shosh85. I think I go into sheet masks with the expectation that I will need to make at least one adjustment for it. ๐ The bacon eye brows are fantastic!!! ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Sounds pretty decent @Shosh85 . The outer packaging is super cute and I kinda dig the designs on the mask as well, they always make me smile. I have one of these I believe, I'll have to test it out soon!
