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
@lmaster too bad this was a touch disappointing. I absolutely love snail masks. Bummer it didnโt make the cut.
If they just eased off the perfume scent @Weetart it would be much better
Last night I used the creme shop Hello Kitty Tea Time mask. I was bummed I can't smell it and hit myself in the nose with it trying to smell, and not realizing how close I was. It seems like an ok mask. My face was super red after. But in the morning my forehead was super slick and oily, the rest of my face looked fine though.
@Samtian can you still not smell anything?? What about taste?? You feeling any better?
@lmaster For smell I can very very very faintly smell two things. Bum Bum Cream and Meteorites, and I can't smell them for long. If I spray perfume I smell for .0001 seconds and that is it. I cannot smell anything else at all. Taste is iffy. I can faintly taste a few things, but it is mostly liquids.
Oh no @Samtian! So sorry this one didnโt work out for you. I wonder if thereโs an ingredient or more than one that your skin is sensitive to. ๐ค
@itsfi I know Vitamin C but beyond that I don't know.
Bummer you couldn't get the scent from this one @Samtian . If memory serves I only get a faint scent from it. I'll have to try it again soon to make sure my memory is intact.
Aw, I'm sorry this ended up being disappointing for you, @Samtian. I hope your redness faded quickly!
@Samtian Man, it seems like you have the worst luck with masks! Do you have sensitive skin? ๐ค Glad this one was at least ok for you. I feel like all the Hello Kitty masks are just ok. ๐คท๐ป
Have you tried any sheet masks you like?
@Shosh85 Haha I have been having not the best of luck lately. Oh I've had masks I love. My skin isn't usually so sensitive until the last few months. Tea smelling things always smell good so that made me sad.
Tonightโs masking with Volcanic and Vita:
After leaving it on for nearly 45 minutes, it still had not dried, nor was it tight. After rinsing, my skin felt smooth and refreshed, highly unusual for a clay mask. I can see why this one is a favorite, it will be a repeat for me for one!
The Orjena Moisture Essential Vita Mask showcases โCellulose Maskโ at the bottom, which I hadnโt noticed when purchasing. I was pretty elated and opened to inspect it closer. It did not appear to be a biocell mask, although the material conformed similarly well to my skin. It also felt close to one, although definitely not on par with the strict adherence of one. As with the innisfree, I did not detect a scent. It fit well on my face, and I left it on a good 30 minutes before removing. No remaining tack, plumped skin - this was a lovely mask and one I would repurchase in a heartbeat! I have a couple of others from the brand which I am now very excited to try.
Is this the same mask as innisfree Super Volcanic Clusters Pore Clearing Clay Mask ? @eshoe
The Innisfree mask is a nice one @eshoe. Good to hear it worked well for you.
I am (very) late to the game with that one, @itsfi, but happy to have tried it. I believe I have seen it in a pump, so I hope to try that after finishing my Pacifica Charcoal mask.
@eshoe I felt the need to keep repeating to myself... "I don't need more masks right now" while reading your review lol. What a great set to put together though!
It must be the new thing in masks, @missjeanie. I am using another one tonight that acts like a hybrid. Feels great but the fit is so awful๐
The Innisfree volcanic mask sounds so nice, @eshoe. I love seeing clay masks that don't overly dry the skin.
