💕😌 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 💮

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💗

I don’t think I’ve tried a Missha wash off mask, @Weetart. This looks like one I would enjoy! Do you have a favorite place to pick up your Missha goodies?

[Weetart]

@eshoe Actually I get them from the brand website during the site wide 50% off sale.

Good to know, @Weetart thank you !

S is for Shooting Stars and Shimmering Pearl, and H is for Hello Kitty

The Creme Shop Hello Kitty Shooting Stars Sheet Mask

This is a medium thickness cotton sheet mask that was multi-colored with cute little pictures on it. It was saturated with a watery and shimmery serum that had a light perfumy-floral kind of smell. It wasn't too strong, but I wouldn't consider it to be light either. The fit was a little off - just slightly too long at the chin, a tiny bit too wide at the temples and the space between the eyes was a little too wide. The adherence was good and it was comfortable to wear the 30 minutes I had it on. I did feel a very slight tingle while it was on, but it was really just very slight. There wasn't any tackiness after removing. My complexion looked brighter and more clear, and my skin had a nice glow and felt super soft and smooth. There was just a little glitter left on my face and my skin felt just a smidge on the dry side.

This mask had some nice results, but because of the scent I probably wouldn't repurchase - I wouldn't hesitate to use again though! 😃

The drying part is disappointing, but all the other points are fun! I love this line of masks in general @Shosh85 

[Shosh85]

@Weetart  Yup, this definitely was a fun one! The whole line is pretty cute 😃

[eshoe]

This is such a pretty mask, @Shosh85. It is interesting that it left your face slightly dry, just the opposite of what it is intended to do🤷🏻‍♀️

[Shosh85]

@eshoe  Well, to be fair, it didn't say anything about moisturizing or hydrating- it says it's supposed to brighten/clear and shimmer/glow and it did actually do those things, so I guess I can't be too surprised  😉

[eshoe]

Good point @Shosh85. I make the assumption that just because it’s packed with serum, it is going to be heavily moisturizing. 

[Kim888]

@Shosh85 @That sounds interesting! I used one from the last line last week so not quite a match up but close 

I agree with you about the fit! This one was a really comfy wear for 20+ minutes as well 

 

[Shosh85]

@Kim888  I remember liking the results from this one as well! 😃

[eshoe]

Loooooove this one, @Kim888 🤩🥰

[ShortErica]

Lucky @Shosh85! With this one I felt like the glitter loved clinging onto my face and it was a bit much for me. Can't deny the cuteness of these though. I liked other Hello Kitty ones better. Do you have a fave?

[Shosh85]

@ShortErica  Well I wouldn't say I love any of these, but if I had to pick a favorite I'd go with the Tea Time one. That could be mostly because that one has the least offensive scent to me 😂🤷🏻

[ShortErica]

I'd have to check my notes @Shosh85. I tend to be harsh with TCS but yeah and I think the Tea Time and one other worked well for me. Still dont know I would purchase them. Despite using my stash there are still so many plus new ones to try!

[lmaster]

I really need to try this mask @Shosh85 I think I have in the past,,, but the shimmer serum is really peaking my interest 😊

[Shosh85]

@lmaster  It's such a fun one! It doesn't have amazing results or anything, but the mask is so cute and the serum is pretty, so that makes up for it😃😉

[Weetart]

R is for really rad! I as do many of us love the A’pieu milk masks. I needed some soothing so I took out the Green Tea one. Smelled delicious, fit moderately okay, snip snip here and there. And had plenty of serum. My face soaked it all right up and feels soothed. The pictures are sideways... but I’m on my new phone and just going to leave it that way. Sorry.

 

 

[eshoe]

Sideways photos or not, sounds like a great masking session @Weetart! 

[Shosh85]

@Weetart  This is a nice one! Love the milky serum! 😃 Glad you enjoyed it! 🍵

In preparation for next week, I plan to use S for the Superfood Salad masks. I've been gifted a few in unicorn mail (I'll shout out the specific lovely ladies when I review) but was curious if anyone wanted to Buddy Up. My options are

• Mangosteen
• Green tea
• Carrot
