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
Thatโs good to know, @itsfi. My little roller can really โwake upโ my skin, Iโd much prefer something gentler, and this sounds like it might be it:)
@itsfi This mask scares me. I feel like I'm going to lose eyebrow hairs and eyelashes.
@Samtian, lol! ๐ Good news is that my brows and lashes are intact! I have a lot of brows though, so if I lost some, I might not be able to tell right away. ๐คฃ Now, my lashes, on the other hand, that's a different story. I can't afford to lose any. ๐ I made sure to gently lay the quartz mask on top of my face and was extra careful to stay still when I had it on, and when I removed it. That said, fair point. I'll have to see what I might do to ensure that no brows or lashes are sacrificed.
@itsfi You'll have to keep us updated lol.
That looks like a relaxing eye mask to throw on for a bit, @itsfi. I'm interested in hearing how it works out used in conjunction with a sheet mask.
@quspork, I'm going to try to make good use of this eye mask and will try it out with different types of sheet masks - cotton, bio-cellulose, hydrogel, Tencel, etc.! I shall keep you posted! ๐
@itsfi I canโt help but feel it would be great for pressing the serum into your skin. But then you could do that with your hands. I can see there being benefit in it forcing you to lay back and relax though... and the weight has got to feel good... Iโm still on the fence with this product.
@heartsmyface, the weight does feel good and is nice for unwinding. I recently purchased a weighted blanket, to see if that might help me sleep better and this eye mask is sorta like a weighted blanket for the eyes and cheeks. ๐
@itsfi @I recently bought a weighted blanket as well! Itโs a nice full body hug! I find it comfortable for an hour or so and then itโs too much. Are you enjoying yours?
@heartsmyface, I like the weighted blanket, though not as much as I did when I first got it. Yes, a full body hug! It's nice for helping my body relax a little more and fall asleep, especially when I pair it with a steam eye mask. Ahhhh! But, I'm still waking up in the early morning hours, well ahead of when I would like to get up. I'm determined to figure out what is at the root of this though. ๐
@itsfi Ugh thereโs some common grounds I wish we didnโt have. Iโve been having a hard time going to sleep in general and am waking up around 5am. Iโve been trying turkey at night, yoga, warm baths... itโs helping a little. The yoga most of all. I may have to cut out drinking tea altogether though thatโs a last resort. I like my tea. ๐ Are you experiencing more stress than usual? It could be that weโre getting less exercise being home all the time? so many variables to explore.
Wow, cutting out tea altogether ๐ณ๐ณ@heartsmyface?!! Would switching to an herbal caffeine free tea after a certain time help? For me, Iโm sure itโs a combination of sitting at my desk for too long, less exercise (and less outdoor time than I had before), and stress, the latter of which I suspect because I was doing things that are typically signs of stress for me (gritting my teeth, etc). Iโve been making some adjustments that have helped, like carving out time in the middle of my day to take a walk outside and giving myself more downtime (and without my phone or computer) before bed. I like your idea of yoga. Iโve been doing some stretches in the mornings and throughout the day, but a solid amount of time doing yoga would be good.
From Q week, Quret and Rose Quartz:
@eshoe oh those eye patches look exceptionally cute!!
@eshoe I LOVE the wander lip retreat!!!! Iโve been wearing it in excursion as my default lip product!
It makes a great gloss, @heartsmyface ๐ So easy to forget itโs a treatment!
@eshoe Those eye patches really are super cute! Glad they turned out decent!
I've been tempted to try out that lip oil - will definitely have to add it to my next order! ๐
I would say the lip is similar but not as thick as the Dior Lip Glow Oil Pink @Shosh85. Itโs much more pigmented, whereas the Dior has a jelly stained appearance. Both are ๐๐ผ, though!
I've really enjoyed the Wander lip oil too, @eshoe!
