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
@quspork It was great! Probably my favorite from the brand so far! ๐
Sounds good for the winter months too @Shosh85 yay for a motm win!
@sonnydee Yup! Definitely picked out a good one! ๐๐
My M masks...
First off, the Patchology Milk Peel (notable ingredients include lactic acid, coconut and soy milk, and green tea extract). It's just a 5 minute mask, but I think I kept it on for a good 15 minutes without irritation. I liked this one quite a bit. The serum was thinnish and milky. My skin looked smooth and a bit glowy afterwards.
I also used the Milk Makeup Cooling Water Eye Patches. Wow - these really stick strongly on the eye! They did seem to get rid of some puffiness. I felt a tiny bit of itchiness while wearing them, which made me nervous. I'm not totally sure why, though I suspect that it may just be because they adhere so closely to the eyes. There also looks to be lavender in them, and sometimes I'm a little sensitive to that. Overall, good, but I probably wouldn't repurchase.
From your review the Milk eye patches don't seem like they would top the Skyn for me but tempt me to maybe try them once @PrettyPaint. No irritation and the results sound amazing for the Patchology one!
@PrettyPaint I honestly can say I've never seen a milk peel mask
Iโve noticed some hydrogel masks itch around the edges, @PrettyPaint. Itโs uncomfortable, and unfortunately results in early dismissal:/ Have you tried the Skyn eye gels yet?
Oh wow @PrettyPaint. Itโs not often you hear that an undereye patch sticks so well. ๐ You mentioned it containing lavender, can you smell the lavender in the eye mask?
Sounds like another win for patchology, @PrettyPaint!
@PrettyPaint The Patchology mask sounds wonderful! So happy it worked out so well for you! ๐
Its too bad the Milk patches caused a little irritation! The stick-on type is my favorite kind!
I apologize if this was posted in another thread somewhere, but I just noticed this new set of masks that's out ๐
SEPHORA COLLECTION The Vitamins Masks Kit
Of course in all of them fragrance is super high and the star ingredient is low - and watermelon is higher than mango in the Mango mask ๐คท๐ป...... and yet I still feel compelled to buy them for some reason ๐
@ShortErica I keep telling myself I'm not buying anymore Sephora masks because I just feel like they should have a better ingredients list for the price........ but it's so hard to resist new masks! ๐
I'm definitely going to give them a go @Shosh85 ๐
@lmaster Nice! I'm so curious about them! I told myself wasn't going to buy any more Sephora masks, but this with the 20% off is a pretty good deal......... I guess we'll see if I cave ๐
@Shosh85, I was super curious when I saw the tagged product since I hadnโt seen the set before. ๐ Then I read the part about the star ingredient being low on the list alcohol high. ๐ Well, that means my very low, low-buy is still in play! ๐
@itsfi Unfortunately it seems the key ingredient being low and fragrance being high, is something all these Sephora masks have in common. I just did a quick glance through all the Sephora masks, (both the original and clean versions) and ALL of them had fragrance higher than their key ingredient, with the exception of the Aloe one - which has Aloe Juice higher than fragrance but the Aloe extract is lower.
Also, just because I thought it was interesting, in the ingredients list of the Coconut clean mask, fragrance is higher than coconut, but Watermelon is higher than them both! ๐๐ค (there's no watermelon in the original version ๐)
