[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💗

@Kim888, completely agree! The packaging on this one is super fun! I love that the mask itself also gives excellent results! ♥️

V is for Vegan. Today I remembered to include both my morning and evening masks in a post. I picked two Huangjisoo masks. In the morning I used the Red Fruits Brightening, and in the evening I used the Broccoli Plumping. As with all sheet masks I’ve used from this brand it smells a bit ugh, reminds me of the smell of a herbal medicine shop. Nasty but effective. My skin really looks great after using these. I am totally a fan of the line, mask is juicy and I have enough extra and it can stay on for eons before I remove it. Sad thing is, these are my last two. Gotta get some more once I put a bigger dent in my sheet mask drawer. I have one drawer and I do not allow myself to have more than can fit in it. And my last Missha haul filled up a lot of the empty spots.

@eshoe @Shosh85 Okay. It’s one drawer for sheet masks. I have little sock holders I got from amazon I put in them to hold them up. I have two little crates for eye masks.. one for heated (I use one nightly) and the other just, other eye masks. Then in the bathroom I have an undersink set of drawers dedicated to wash offs. And I have my night mask (face and lip) in my bedside stand drawer. So it’s not allll in one drawer.

 

 

 

[eshoe]

@Weetart hey at least you know where to find everything! It sounds like you have a good system in place👍🏼

[Shosh85]

@Weetart  Nice! Love the organization! I just downsized from 3 drawers of masks to 2, so I'm getting there 😂 I love that you have a spot just for the heated eye masks - those are definitely great to have on hand! 😃

[Shosh85]

@Weetart These sound so great - minus the scent! I've only tried one mask from this line, but really enjoyed it as well.

Good for you for keeping to your one drawer rule! Definitely seems like a great system ... and eventually I'll get myself there 😂

[missjeanie]

These sound great @Weetart , I recognize the packaging so I may have one from the line somewhere.  I'll have to take a look. 

[quspork]

Glad to hear these work so well for you, @Weetart! And I commend your restraint on sticking to the one-drawer rule.

E is for Escargot

Lapcos Escargot is a new to me mask, it's a medium thickness yet more flexible, fit was typical, snips in inner eye corners, a bit long at the chin. The scent is like perfume, it could be too strong for some,, it was almost too strong for me. Extra super bubbly serum, it does dry tacky, but fades within 5 minutes. 15 minutes wear time, my skin did feel nicely hydrated and moisturized and felt wonderful. Nice results, but not one I would prefer from the brand.

@lmaster, I was all on board with escargot but then you said the perfume scent was almost too strong for you, and that was it. This’ll be one snail mask I’ll pass on - that’s a rarity but really helpful to know about the scent. Sorry this one didn’t work out but there are more escargot masks out there waiting for us, right?!! 🐌 

[lmaster]

@itsfi I usually don't mind a light perfume scent, but this one was a bit too much to enjoy

[eshoe]

Well that’s a bummer, @lmaster. This brand is usually better, boo!

[lmaster]

@eshoe I know! The scent though... They need less perfume,, maybe more of a fresh scent 😣

[Kim888]

I don’t think I’ve seen this version before @lmaster- sorry it ended up being meh!

[lmaster]

@Kim888 yeah I'm bummed it wasn't impressive 

[Shosh85]

@lmaster  I've been wanting to try more from this line, but it sounds like I'll be passing on this one! I'm always down for some snail, but that scent definitely does not sound like my cup of tea 😬 Happy to hear you got some nice results!

[lmaster]

@Shosh85 they just need to cut the scent back a smidge 😒

[quspork]

Escargot makes it sound so much more fancy than a regular ol' snail mask, @lmaster 😄

[lmaster]

@quspork were classy around here 😆

[missjeanie]

@lmaster  I think @quspork is right... Escargot sounds so much fancier!

[lmaster]

Oh yes @missjeanie so high class 😉
