๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ 2024 Masking Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

6ADE6F2B-300D-4DE5-8A89-DEBA0CC45743.gif

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 ๐Ÿ’ฐmask that is share-worthy? Or find a dupe that works even better than the original? Details, please!

Spoiler
JanuaryFresh Starts - Time for a re-set, or morning masking? However you see it, this month is all about new beginnings.
FebruaryWinter 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.
MarchMarch 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!
AprilSpring Fling - Baskets and bouquets, showers of much-anticipated rain...this month's focus is herbal and floral sensory delights.
MayDew 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.
JuneSummer 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 masks๐Ÿ’—

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@Kim888  Ooooo Howโ€™s the aloe sheet mask serum? Iโ€™ve been wanting to try this one. Is it a clear watery serum like the other ones from them? 

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@pinyo yes - it was a clear serum and super saturated. Definitely worth a try!

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Oh that's a bummer that your experience with the samples is different than the full size @Kim888. Could it be a change of seasons? Hopefully you can get it to work okay or maybe return it. Sticky skin isn't too appealing.

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Have you tried removing the SF with a damp makeup eraser? @Kim888 I find that using those to remove wash off masks really gets any excess off wonderfully

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@lmaster I haven't tried that! I will give that a go!

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@Kim888 oh my gosh,, they are amazing for wash off masks!! Especially charcoal masks too

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Love those lookatme masks! Always a delight. I still have yet to try a summer fridays mask. Itโ€™s on the short list after I actually start running out of wash offs. Curious is it a cream texture? @Kim888 

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@Weetart it's like a night cream texture, very smooth

This is the only one I've tried so far out of the 3 pack. There was papaya scent detected. Not my favorite of scents because I could smell something else, maybe a clean scent mixed with papaya ๐Ÿค” the mask was a medium thickness, but this one was decently saturated with serum so it stayed on well. There was extra serum in the pouch. Wear time was 20 minutes, after removing, my skin felt a bit more hydrated, not much moisturization... And I didn't notice brighter skin at all. No lasting tackiness. Unless the other 2 are incredible, I wouldn't consider repurchasing. 

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@lmaster  Awe man, sorry to hear this one was a bit of a bummer! I almost picked this set up - sounds like I'm not missing much so far! I'll be interested to hear what you think of the other two! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

This one was not impressive to me @Shosh85  ๐Ÿ˜”

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Good luck with the other two ๐Ÿคž or maybe not, if your goal might be to not repurchase @lmaster 

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@ShortErica unless they start selling them as singles that probably won't be too tempting to repurchase the set at this point

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Ick that smell does not sound good @lmaster - sorry it was disappointing ! Hopefully the others will be better 

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Yeah it was not what I expected @Kim888 ๐Ÿ˜”

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Also from last week, figured it isn't in that same line of Mitomo so I'd make a different post, is the Diamond Essence - thanks for sending it to me @eshoe!

My face

Since I forgot to mention it below, eye flaps - oh, I just don't understand. All folded down nicely but I'd rather just have a complete eye hole with no flap. The scent was baby powder with perfume for me. The fit seemed good - less folding and didn't get into my hair. I wore it 30 minutes. Shame on me - I did not look for brightness but the big yes! moment for me was that I had a hard pimple I had popped a few days earlier that left a little red dot by my upper lip that was driving me nuts and after wearing the mask, it looked smaller and less red. A-. I thought my face looked good but I was distracted by other results. I do wish the scent was less prominent on it. I kinda want to try it again and look for brightness. I still have a little extra serum in the pack - perfect for a morning use so maybe I can test if there is radiance from it. I'll share what I find or if someone else has used it, let me know what you saw for results - thanks!

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@ShortErica  Boo! to the scent, but yay! for your blemish looking better! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ™Œ

I know exactly what kind of scent you're talking about, and it's definitely not my favorite either ๐Ÿคฎ

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

The eye flaps @ShortErica ๐Ÿ™„ The last thing I want in my eyes is serum, yikes! You are a good sport, finding the silver lining in an otherwise marginal mask:)

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@eshoe thanks! It is nice getting to be picky so I don't need to buy them all.

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

@ShortErica I've only tried one,, maybe two different variations of this mask. I would be curious to try the others. Good to know they are all pretty similar

Re: 2020 Mask of the Week Challenge

Yeah, I'm all for gotta try them all @lmaster. If only TJ Maxx/Marshalls sold a variety pack vs 10 of the same mask.
