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 ๐ฎ
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
Want to Unclutter some before the new year. And this lil ds (forgot to take a pic but it'll be in my empties)๐คฆ has been hanging around. Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Sukari Babyfacialโข AHA + BHA Mask Mini 0.5 oz/ 15 mL I've tried it before & I woke up the next morning to even more texture. Will update tomorrow if any negative results pop up but I plan on using Herbivore Lapis Blue Tansy Face Oil - For Oily & Acne-Prone Skin 1.7 oz/ 50 mL #lapis tonight to hopefully counteract anything. Still won't buy, I'm perfectly happy withHerbivore Prism 12% AHA + 3% BHA Exfoliating Glow Serum & plan on trying out the mask. Will say if you have any "open" blemishes ๐ณ๐ฌ๐ you will know. It burns! I thought i was far enough in the healing stage but guess not. It didn't last to long & I was able to keep the mask on for 20 min, used a cloth to wipe it off. I have others I feel do a better job at exfoliating, still pretty meh....๐ค for ease of spread. Dont care for the smell or taste, ๐คข if you accidentally get it your mouth or lip.
@sonnydee I do like the DE but I only use it once a month, mainly due to the price, and I have so many others I need to get through ๐
@sonnydee I enjoy the DE Babyfacial, but I can completely agree with you that the taste is horrible! I've got a sample of the herbivore that I'm curious to try to see if it can replace the DE for me as it's not available in Canada. I'm glad to see you enjoy the line.
I have enjoyed a lot of the line @missjeanie Herbivore Jasmine Green Tea Oil Control Toner 4 oz/ 120 mL not sure. It reminds me of the chloraseptic throat spray & I don't "see" or feel what it does. But i have a fs๐คท so plenty to see how i really feel about it.
@sonnydee Sorry to hear about your experience with Babyfacial! I hope it turns out better this time!
FYI: the Babyfacial doesn't taste good either ๐คฎ
I got it on my lip & didn't know it. Soooooo bitter @Shosh85 ๐คข but no issues this morning
Love your "U" @sonnydee! Yay for uncluttering. I need to get to that soon - your enabling powers have no limits, do they?! ๐
Fingers crossed you don't experience any negative effects from DE Babyfacial! ๐ค
๐ค I try. @itsfi I'm just glad to be done with it & more empties before the new year, the merrier.
That looks like a foot mask @itsfi ๐ did it smell good?
It does look like a foot mask @lmaster! ๐ The smell was fine just very very faint and not long lasting. I had to put my nose right up to it to pick up what subtle scent I did, and then it was gone.
well this is interesting @itsfi . Did you use the mask post wash or pre wash? I always think I like the idea of these masks, but find that I end up grabbing the tubs of thick conditioner like masks instead. Maybe I need to pick a month to concentrate on the cap versions. Super cool of the company to send this along with the replacements.
@missjeanie, the directions say to wash with shampoo and then use the hair mask which I find is a pain in the patoots from a practical standpoint. ๐ฉ I ended up jumping in the shower to shampoo my hair, what with having gotten sauce all in my hair and on me - yaaaay me! After towel drying my hair, I used the hair cap and then rinsed it out of my hair.
It was super generous and thoughtful of them. Excellent customer service.
I'm with you on the pain in the patoots here @itsfi . I always prefer to just leave the mask in while I'm finishing my shower.
@itsfi I was curious about these! The cap shape is quite interesting! The second photo looks like a foot mask bootie ๐ค My head is pretty big and bulbous so it probably wouldn't work for me either ๐
What did it smell like?
@Shosh85, โbulbousโ is a great descriptor for the cap! ๐๐ผ The scent was suuuuper subtle, along the lines of the skin on grapes ๐, maybe. Itโs not a full on sweet, grape scent at all, and is very fleeting. I was trying to see if I could pick up an apple ๐ scent, but nope.
I like the idea of the cap.๐ค I always have a hard time using hair masks because I would want to use it in the shower....may have to use just a regular cap dedicated to my hair masks. Have to admit, feel a bit dumb not thinking of it before๐คฆ @itsfi happy to hear about the good results though. And grapes are delicious! Would've happened at my house too๐
@sonnydee, I highly recommend having a shower cap just for hair masks. ๐๐ผ It took me a while to think of it but it really comes in handy. It doesnโt have to be a fancy one either. I use the plastic ones that I can just rinse out after using a mask. The complementary shower caps that are in hotels work too.
Ohhhh good idea about the plastic hotels ones. I do have the cheap ones lying around since teeni likes having her hair colored crazy. @itsfi I don't know bout you but I take everything from hotels when I stay. Within reason of course๐ but I did go to HS with a girl when we were at state competition, fell head over heels with the down comforter & she took it home with her. ๐ฉ
