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 ๐ฎ
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
Sounds like your mixed feelings were understandable @quspork . Scent is one of those things that can really make or break a mask.
@quspork It's been awhile since I tried this one, but according to my notes, I liked it more than the Golden one. Unfortunately it seems fragrance is high up in the ingredients in a lot of these masks. ๐คข
@quspork Glad the result were great! Too bad the scent was overwhelming for you.
@Shosh85, I can't remember the scent on this one, but perfume-y has me recoiling a bit. The results on this one sound amazing! ๐ I wonder if the adherence issues on this one has something to do with its shelf life; I can't remember when these were released. I am sure I have either this one or the gold one, or maybe both of them, in my stash... I'll check this weekend and if I do, I'll be interested to see how it holds up. @quspork
I did have that thought about the age of the mask, @itsfi since these have been discontinued now. I'll be interested to see your thoughts whenever you reach for the SC foil in your collection.
@quspork, Iโm far enough into the remainder of my stash that I can move those masks up the queue - itโs a sign (yet another one) that I have too many sheet masks if thereโs a queue... ๐ Will let you know how it turns out.
Oh bummer @quspork. At least through all the pain, you got good results.
So true, @ShortErica. It's nice that there was at least some redeeming factor for it!
@quspork As I recall, I've felt similarly about the foil ones. I think it was the rose gold one I tried and I had a lot of fit issues.
@quspork I have the same feelings about these particular masks
Sorry about the scent, @quspork. Makes me want to compile a list of best unscented masks! I could do without added fragrance, too.
It's a shame that a bad scent can completely change how you feel about a mask, @eshoe. Although by the same token, there are some masks that I seek out because of the scent. I do think it'd be interesting to include an unscented mask week next year to see what some people's favorites are.
Ok @quspork, definitely adding it to the schedule! I think I should even wiggle it in this year, for fun @ShortErica @Shosh85 @missjeanie ๐
I really love this idea... I find I have a love hate relationship with fragrance. I know I should want fragrance free... but if it'll be a fragrance I enjoy... I want it lol. @eshoe Hopefully seeing a bunch of fragrance free masks will help with finding awesome ones I can add to my list!
Yeah there are many nights I just donโt want a scent, @missjeanie. Some nights I am looking for it, but it would be helpful to have a list of unscented skin treats!
Do we have an no fragrance/unscented theme week for 2021 @eshoe? That would be a nice way to see what masks don't have fragrance.
@ShortErica Oooh that's a great idea for a theme! ๐ก
I will check, @ShortErica, but I donโt think so. I would like to see it on the schedule, though-would be helpful!
Whole Foods - one of my most favorite grocery store brands ๐
Whole Foods Purifying Rose Air Wrapping Mask
This is two piece foil mask, which has a silver colored foil on the outside and cotton on the inside touching your skin. It fit great - just a tiny bit too wide at the temples and a smidge too short at the forehead. It was saturated with plenty of serum and had a light floral scent. As with most foil masks I've tried, the adherence wasn't the greatest, but it was still pretty comfortable to wear the half hour I had it on. There was a little tackiness after removing, but it absorbed in about 10 minutes. My face looked brighter and less dull and my skin felt soft and smooth and comfortably hydrated.
This was a nice mask and one I'd use again, but probably wouldn't repurchase - it didn't have the greatest scent and foil masks in general just aren't my favorite because of the adherence issues. I think I'll stick to repurchasing the biocellulose and cotton cupra masks. ๐
