💕😌 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💗

@emaisgr8 glad to hear you like these eye masks. I have been wanting to try because I've heard they help with puffiness.

My drugstore mask this week a warming mask by Kit from Rexall. I got it as a free sample when I was buying a few things a week ago. Free sample and face mask... I was not going to say no to that! It was not bad, but not great. It was runny and stayed that way the whole 12 minutes I left it on my face. I was also surprised by the colour. It did feel good on my face. A nice warming effect as I massaged on my face. It didn't irritate my skin which is always a plus for me, and my skin doesn't feel tight or dried out as it normally does after some masks and cleansers. There is a lot left in the packet and I'll use it again, but likely won't purchase. I just didn't like how runny it was.

@ladyassassin A@is just love the warming masks. Thanks for the warning on this one though, I’m not big on runny masks. 

[quspork]

This sounds like an interesting one, @ladyassassin. Sorry to hear the consistency of it is too runny, but it seems pretty nice otherwise. 

[lmaster]

@ladyassassin this sounds like a cool mask! 

[Shosh85]

@ladyassassin  I love warming face masks! Too bad it was runny, but it sounds great otherwise! Have you tried any other warming face masks?

[ladyassassin]

@Shosh85 the only other warming mask I've tried is the Farmacy Honey Potion Renewing Antioxidant Hydration Mask 4.1 oz/ 117 g which I love.

[Shosh85]

@ladyassassin  I agree, Honey Potion is wonderful! Definitely a top favorite for me too! 🍯

[itsfi]

@ladyassassin, it looks like they give you a lot of product in that package! I’m with you on this one - the warming from the mask sounds nice but the runny consistency would probably make it a pass for me as well.

[eshoe]

Many 💕‘s of gratitude to @sonnydee for alerting me to this mask (set)🙏💗

The Farmacy Honey Potion Renewing Antioxidant Hydration Mask 1.7 oz/ 50 g is an easy love and will likely be until it’s no longer available. The anticipation for the Kocostar mask was huge!! I wanted to try the Ice Cream but chose Honey to stay on task.

texture: true ‘waffle’ and thick, too. 
fit: exceptionally well, considering how thick the cotton is. no snips required, eye openings adequately spaced
serum: sooooo much. I thought while packing it on that there had to be some mistake-no way was this an ounce of serum. And yes-on the package it clearly states that it’s closer to 1-1/2 ounces (1.4). It is a true gel and doesn’t drip drip all over, love that about this. With the waffle weave, the extra serum was easy to pat on and make the most of🥰
scent: yum, seriously sweet honey. 
tack: a little? Not much. Not enough to note, anyway.
Would I buy again? Ugh, I don’t even want to try the others because this one was such a fun experience! But I have Maple, Ice Cream, Strawberry and Blueberry left. Thanks sonnydee for sharing these on one of your hauls, what a great find!

[eshoe]

Ha @sonnydee that sums it up nicely 🤗

[missjeanie]

All the love for the Farmacy Honey potion here too @eshoe . And that waffle mask!!! How cute, and what a wonderful experiance it sounds like! 

[eshoe]

It was deliciously good, @missjeanie! Can’t wait to try more💕🥰

[Samtian]

@eshoe Ooh I'm going go look those up!

[eshoe]

They are good, @Samtian - the ‘flavors’ are pretty appealing, too!

[Samtian]

@eshoe Did you see the foot and leg mask?! Someone needs to try that lol.

[ShortErica]

I don't think I've ever heard of a leg mask before. Interesting @Samtian!

[Samtian]

@ShortErica 

[ShortErica]

Hmm..not sure I'd have one as part of my regular routine @Samtian but like the butt mask, I may have to try it for science 😁

[eshoe]

Leg mask, @Samtian?!?! off to research!
