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
@ladyassassin, the Sephora foot masks are very good; they are now a very close second to the Aveeno. I usually stock up during the November sale, and pick up as many of the holiday edition ones as I can. ๐ Thatโs stinks that they are OOS frequently in Canada. I hope they restock soon. ๐ค๐ผ
These sound impressive!! @itsfi I've been seeing oat masks here lately
These masks were really good. It could be that my hands and feet were not getting a lot of love from me but I really enjoyed both these masks. I was so happy with how soft and moisturized my hands and feet felt. Oats are so soothing @lmaster!
@itsfi I actually like products by Aveno. I've had my eye on the foot mask for a while. Thank you for the feedback. I'll try it now!
@tjffc, the Aveeno shower gel and body lotion have been staples in my mix of bath and body products. โฅ๏ธ I was happily surprised by the foot mask - I usually find most foot masks to be fine enough but this one was spectacular. I suspect itโs a combo of it being very good and my soles being in need of some TLC. Iโd love to know how it works for you.
@itsfi I really like these too. I also tend to intentionally fall asleep with hand masks. I don't know if I could with foot masks (especially if it made my feet feel cold), but my feet could probably use the extra moisture.
@PrettyPaint, Aveeno makes some great products. Do you have a preference for these foot masks or the ones from Sephora (or another brand)?
I haven't tried sleeping with the foot masks when it's cold out; if the foot mask isn't too cold on my feet, I'll give it a shot in the wintertime. I think it should be okay, save the initial cold feeling when putting them on. I sleep with 2-3 layers of blankets in the winter (I know, it sounds crazy but it's quite cozy) so hopefully that will help to make it feel less cold.
That's a good question @itsfi. I haven't tried the new Sephora ones yet, but for the price and the results, I feel like I almost prefer the aveeno ones. Plus, I tend to find them on sale frequently at CVS (I think they have them buy one get one half off quite frequently). I also quite like CICA as an ingredient.
@PrettyPaint, the Cica was what caught my eye. The Sephora ones have been my faves for years. Iโll have to keep an eye out for them at CVS. After my no buy ends, of course! ๐
@itsfi Oooooo these look amazing!! I havenโt seen them but maybe I need to check out a drugstore!! That may be my mission this weekend!! Thanks for the great reviews!
@ather, the soles of my feet are happy with me after the foot mask. ๐ I didnโt realize I had been neglecting them. ๐ I need to get back to a weekly hand and foot mask - after all, I do have enough ๐๐คฃ๐
4 S's @itsfi dont forget about Shea butter
Oh, thanks @sonnydee! ๐ค Yaaay, 4 Sโs! ๐๐ผ That S was only staring me in the face. ๐ ohhh, where would I be without you @sonnydee?!!
You may not have seen it, but on the โAboard the Train Tagโ thread, I completely botched up the progression of the alphabet - for the thread, one person tags a product with an A in the brand name or product name then another tags one with a B, etc. Anyhow, I decided to not follow the natural sequence. Why? No idea. ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ I didnโt even realize I had until @lmaster kindly and astutely pointed out that nope, P does not, in fact, follow Q in the alphabet. Hahaha! ๐๐คฃ๐ Wow was I on a roll that day or what?!! ๐
๐ @itsfi. i just blame stuff like that on lack of sleep, stress, distracted. But you did have me singing the alphabet & still do everytime I need to put something in order
@sonnydee, sadly, Iโd say itโs lack of sleep and stress; and Iโm probably distracted by those two things as well. ๐คช It was so funny. It actually made me laugh and it was really good to laugh. In fact, I keep chuckling every time I think about it @lmaster! ๐ Forget about fuzzy math; this is fuzzy alphabet at its best. ๐คฃ
When I help my niece wash her hands after a meal, we usually sing the โHappy Birthdayโ song (or โLet It Goโ when the mood strikes herโ ๐). The day after alphabet-gate happened, I had us sing the alphabet, which brought on โwhy are we singing the alphabet song, auntie?โ Hahaha! ๐ฌ
@Loretta55 @itsfi we have to have fun on Bic!! And trust me,,, with you two sweets,,, it's guaranteed ๐โฅ๏ธ
@Loretta55, it was you and me. We are in this together!!! @lmaster
