💕😌 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💗

favourite for sure @Weetart !

[lmaster]

@Weetart yep this one is a favorite for me 😆

[Shosh85]

@Weetart  I think out of the 7 I've tried, this pleas one of my favorites!.... but I agree, they are all pretty nice 😃

[ShortErica]

I have this one I still have to try @Weetart. The watermelon was really nice but I thought the aloe was just meh. 10 packs at TJ Maxx are so awesome at those prices!

[Weetart]

@ShortErica I absolutely never find them at TJMaxx, I think I have someone else in the same area who as is much of a fiend as me and beats me to it.... I need to ask the staff about their stocking date and time.

[ShortErica]

I'd accuse @sonnydee but I don't think you live in the same place @Weetart 😂

T is for thyme. (It’s an ingredient waaay down the list) After a driving all yesterday i woke up with puffy under eye bags. Moments like this definitely qualify for taking out a Skyn Iceland hydro cool firming eye gels. Oooh they feel way better. I love how they don’t slip and have that foam consistency. Always need a pack of these on hand. skyn ICELAND Hydro Cool Firming Eye Gels 8 x 0.11 oz/ 3.2 g pairs of eye gels 

[eshoe]

There are good masks for when you can’t sit still, @Weetart 😂 Love how well they adhere to your skin!

[Shosh85]

@Weetart  Love these! Glad to hear you feel the same! 😃

[ShortErica]

Really enjoy the Skyn and got them for 50% at Ulta but keep forgetting to use them. Thanks for the reminder @Weetart!

[PrettyPaint]

@Weetart  These are quite nice. Fortunately I seem to get a lot of them in ulta gifts! 

[Weetart]

Same @PrettyPaint ! And they are 50% off at Ulta all the time. So one way or another there are a handful in my eye mask coffer.

G is for Grapefruit. This A’pieu mask was very relaxing and has a fresh grapefruit scent. Most certainly qualifies as a filler mask. Fits terrible areojns the nose. No matter how adjust there are large areas that remain uncovered. The sheet is thin and well saturated with left over serum. Overall I like it and would buy again if cheap. 

[eshoe]

Even if it’s just a filler mask, @Weetart - the scent has me so curious!

[Weetart]

@eshoe @lmaster yeah, great filler. I have a few peaches left, the grapefruit is so refreshing though!

[lmaster]

@Weetart I'd love to try this one!

[Shosh85]

@Weetart  I haven't tried this one yet but it sounds nice! I really love the banana one! 

[Weetart]

@Shosh85 yaaas on the banana!

[Shosh85]

Placenta for gross week....... but it really isn't that gross, since it's just soybean placenta- it just sounds gross. ETA: oops, the last placenta mask I used had soybean placenta (soybean phytoplacenta extract) so I just assumed this one was the same - but this one has "hydrolyzed placental extract," which I guess comes from some kind of actual placenta? 🤔😳

Mediheal Placenta Revital Essential Mask Ex

This is a thin cotton sheet mask that soaking in a silky serum and had a light floral scent that wasn't too noticeable while the mask was on. I kept it on for about 25 minutes. When I removed it I pressed in the remaining serum that felt slightly tacky, but it all absorbed in a couple minutes. My face looked brighter and felt a little plumped and moisturized.

This was great mask, with some great results. I'm not so sure I'd pay retail for this one, but I'd definitely repurchase at a good discount or if spotted at TJ Maxx/Marshall's.

Okay so as a soybean placenta mask I was just meh on it, but now that it's actual placenta and therefore the gross factor has been upped... I'm waaaayyy more interested to try it @Shosh85 !

[Shosh85]

@missjeanie  Haha! Right!? Definitely makes it more exciting! 😃
