💕😌 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?

I'm glad to hear this combo helped your skin, @missjeanie! I love the Oozoo bear for a nice hit of hydration. 

[missjeanie]

I swear sometimes I forget how much I enjoy a mask then when I do use it again, I'm extra impressed all over again @quspork ! lol

[itsfi]

I agree - Oozoo is a great name for a band. Love it @missjeanie! ♥️♥️♥️ Love your mask choices too! That’s good that they gave you a heads up about the shoot. You’re a celebrity missjeanie! 

[missjeanie]

Lol... it was a long day but pretty fun @itsfi , not something that happens in small town Northern Ontario very often!  And my skin was looking great.. under my mask lol

[Kim888]

@missjeanie @Both such great masks for sure!! The too cool one has always been one of my favorites 

[missjeanie]

Such a good one every time @Kim888 ! I need more masks like this! 

[lmaster]

Ohhh @missjeanie great choices!!

Wishtrend Hours-long Moisturizing Gauze Sheet Mask

This is a two piece mask that they say is gauze, but it seemed more like tencel and was coated with a slippery gel serum that felt kind of like firm jello. It reminds me exactly of  the MISSHA Ice Sorbet Cooling Moisture Sheet Mask I've used a couple times and really love. (I think eshoe has mentioned the same thing before too 😉) The scent was light and was a mix of fruity and floral - I thought it was pleasant. It fit good - just a smidge too long at the chin, not quite wide enough by the ears and the mouth hole was a bit too small. The mask was super comfortable to wear and adhered well except for the extra length at the chin that popped up occasionally during 25 minutes I had it on. When I removed it there was a little serum left that was just slightly tacky, but it all absorbed in a few minutes. My skin felt soft, plumped and moisturized and had a nice dewy glow.

I really enjoyed this mask! I'd definitely love to order more! 😃

@Shosh85, this is such a marvelous mask. I love the material on it. Happy to hear it worked so well for you! 

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  Happy to hear you enjoyed this one as well! The texture of it is so unique, I'd definitely love to find more like it! I'm pretty sure the Missha mask that is similar to this is discontinued, otherwise I'd be stocking up on both!

[itsfi]

@Shosh85, yes, it is similar to the Missha and a couple of some lanseal masks I used a year or so ago that I really liked. 

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  Yes! I knew there had been another mask like this! The "Your Peace Lanseal Glow Mask" you gave me was very similar as well! Thanks for reminding me of more mask purchases I need to make! Haha! 😂

@eshoe 

[eshoe]

Adding this to my list now, @Shosh85 😙

[itsfi]

Hahaha @Shosh85! It’s so fascinating how many masks we *need*! 😆 That Your Peace mask is my favorite. The Wishtrend one is what I recommended to folks on this thread in lieu of it. 

[lmaster]

@Shosh85 when I see gauze mask,,, I'm immediately intrigued,,, has there been a gauze mask you didn't like? 

[Shosh85]

Me too @lmaster. Anytime I see the word "gauze" on a mask I immediately want to buy it! I haven't tried too many gauze masks, but I definitely don't remember disliking any! I think my favorite one was The Saem Natural-Tox Apple mask - and of course it's discontinued 😢

[lmaster]

That's so super sad too,,, that was a wonderful mask @Shosh85 😒

[eshoe]

Oh yay, @Shosh85! I was so excited when @PrettyPaint sent this one to me, I had to share:D The texture was different than I expected, but in a good way. This is the only other mask I’ve tried that mimics the Ice Sorbet one, which is very cool indeed. Happy to hear your skin enjoyed it, too!

[Shosh85]

@eshoe  Thank you so much for sending me this one! I never thought I'd run into one that was so much like the Missha mask! The texture of it really does feel so nice! 

[eshoe]

That is so great to hear, @Shosh85!
