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 💰mask 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 masks💗
@sonnydee I am always astounded by the number of different variations creme shop has! Glad this one worked well for you!
@sonnydee This one sounds nice! The Fusion line is definitely my favorite from The Creme Shop! 🌹
So excited to do the theme - Gross/Odd/Unusual Ingredients! Last time I was busy playing the expiration game but this time it's spirulina and snail and donkey, oh my!
Thanks to @quspork for the donkey and Leaders snail! I used the donkey one first
Next is Leader snail. You really can tell the difference between the lines. Insolution is superior to the Mediu line I picked up at TJ Maxx/Marshalls
Next was spirulina from @lmaster - definitely not something I've run across before
I tend to buy 10 packs and then not try them until later on, you know, too many masks problems. I figured it was a good time to throw in the Yadah Royal Snail I bought not too long ago
I took another snail out of a Masks on the Move box. I am familiar with the Frudia blueberry, grape, etc. line but this one was intriguing with its different style
Glad you were able to try them, @ShortErica! I do agree with you about wishing more of the serum was on the actual mask with the Elizavecca one. That seems to happen (for me at least) with some of the thicker cream serums.
@quspork I'd say I've only tried a handful of masks with thicker serum. Good to know it's typical. It has been so fun trying so many different masks this year thanks to all my sweet BIC friends. 😊
Nice mix of masks, @ShortErica! @quspork sent me that mask last year and I can almost guarantee that had it been labeled anything other than ‘Donkey Steam’ I probably would have left it on more than a few minutes😂 My stomach is just not that strong. The serum was fantastic, though.
HAHA, @eshoe! It can be hard to get over some of the more squeamish ingredients!
You have helped ease my fears a little bit, @quspork 😉
Yes, the creamy lotion serums are very nice @eshoe. Next time have you daughter open the mask so you dont know what it is 😂
She would probably pick that one out because it looks interesting @ShortErica. She is not squeamish at ALL😆
excellent theming @ShortErica . I didn't even realize there was a Yadah snail in that line. I used the snail one from Frudia the other day and remember thinking that it was good, but not amazing. I wonder if I'm getting a lot harder to impress with sheet masks lately? A lot of them fall into the 'fine' category, but aren't anything wowing like this one.
Agree @missjeanie. There are so many where it is an enjoyable masking session and the mask was nice and I'd use again but don't feel motivated that I need to buy it. That's probably a good thing since I went wild last year.
Great reviews and I love the masks you used for theme @ShortErica
@ShortErica Looks like a nice round of masks!
I really love the masks with milky/creamy serum and the Donkey Steam mask is one I've always wanted to try! I'm super intrigued by your description of the scent - I think I'm even more interested in trying it now 😃🤔
I plan to do a showdown between those 3 Yadah too! I think I remember liking the Aloe the most, but it would be good to refresh my memory. 😉 I was so excited when I saw that Yadah Royal Snail mask, but that scent is kind of a bummer. I definitely would be more excited and motivated to buy it if you had said it smelled like honey!
I know I can be picky about scents like I don't like tea tree at all so maybe someone else would appreciate it @Shosh85. I was hoping for honey with whatever snail is (usually I feel they do some floral fragrance with it). Now I want to compare them for results. I've been not analyzing my before and after faces as much as I used to.
And yeah, I was so not expecting that scent for the donkey one. I'll be interested in what you think.
Missha Real Solution Tencel Sheet mask featuring Glutathione that claims “Pure Whitening.” Hard to tell about the brighter skin claim, other parts of my routine already successfully have been handling that. But it felt nice. Soooo much serum, enough for tattoos etc. It suggested 10-20 minutes. Can certainly stay on longer. But I was in a rush. I recommend. Left my skin soaked and the tackiness when away with a little pat pat here and there.
Ooooh, a Tencel fiber sheet mask @Weetart? It sounds wonderful. 😁 I used a daily sheet mask pack that had hyaluronic acid and glutathione as the key ingredients and really liked it. *adding this one to my list of masks to try.
@itsfi Yup yup! It's a great one and great ingredient combo for sure. So, did you include that daily sheet mask pack on the thread? There are so many posts I miss quite a few. I've been using the Murad Age spot remover to even out the skin tone at a faster rate... working like a charm. so I've been really careful mask wise. Buuuut. That sounds like something I'd be way into after I'm done with it.
@Weetart, I used that particular daily sheet mask pack a year ago - A'Pieu Hyaluthione Soonsoo Daily Sheet. It looks like it's out of stock in most places but you can sign up for notification of any restock at sokoglam (dot) com. At the time, I didn't know what "hyaluthione" meant but now I know if it's a combination of the ingredients hyaluronic acid and glutathione. Good grief! I was slow on the uptake with that one! 😆
