6ADE6F2B-300D-4DE5-8A89-DEBA0CC45743.gif

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 ๐Ÿ’ฐmask that is share-worthy? Or find a dupe that works even better than the original? Details, please!

Spoiler
JanuaryFresh Starts - Time for a re-set, or morning masking? However you see it, this month is all about new beginnings.
FebruaryWinter 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.
MarchMarch 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!
AprilSpring Fling - Baskets and bouquets, showers of much-anticipated rain...this month's focus is herbal and floral sensory delights.
MayDew 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.
JuneSummer 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?

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Totally thought that was gonna be a pickle mask @eshoe ! lol, glad it wasn't!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Hey I could go for a pickle mask, @missjeanie! If I end up with a mask maker, Iโ€™m going to try it just for the fun of it. In the meantime, I guess I could use pickle slices instead of cucumbers for soothing my lids?

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@eshoe I totally expect a pickle juice mask to the first one you test out!  lol I'm sure there's a study somewhere advocating for it... pretty much just vinegar and cucumbers no?

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Add some pickling spices and youโ€™re set, @missjeanie! Somehow I donโ€™t think the scent would be soothing though;)

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@eshoe  Oh, the rollers sound so refreshing! I bet it's even better in the summertime!

 

So sorry to hear your skin didn't like the Innisfree mask! That's never a fun a surprise! ๐Ÿ˜ข

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Yes the rollers can seem extra chilly right now, I am so excited to try them in the summer months @Shosh85! And another positive about the innisfree at least it was just a one/two use pod๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

C is for Cookie. ๐Ÿช (Any one else think of Cookie Monster when they read that?๐Ÿ˜‚


C is also for coconut oil, dark chocolate and The Creme Shop

The Creme Shop My Melody Softer Than Cookies Sheet Mask

This is a pink cotton mask with cute little animated pictures on it. (I took a picture, but I can't seem to find it now) I'm not too good at describing scents, but to me it was a very sweet, floral-perfumy smell. I'm usually pretty sensitive to anything floral or perfumy, but I think because of the sweetness of this one it didn't bother me much. It had a classic Creme Shop fit โ€“ too wide, too long at the chin, a tiny bit too long at the forehead, and the bridge of the nose between the eyes was too wide.

I kept it on for about 25 minutes. When I removed it my face was noticeably brighter and so refreshed. It didn't take long for the leftover serum to absorb and I was left with incredibly soft and smooth skin โ€“ I mean it was seriously sooo soft! The hydration from this also seemed to last quite awhile.

I didn't love the scent, but the results definitely make up for it.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@Shosh85, there are a host of good masks in the TCS x Hello Kitty and Friends collab and this particular one is among my favorites within that collection. ๐Ÿ˜ Happy to hear the results were good for you too!  Awwww, cookie monster!!!! I would support a collab between The Creme Shop and Sesame Street. ๐Ÿ˜

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@Shosh85  Ahhhh the mask is the cutest! I love the Cookie Monster reference I totally thought it before I red your comment!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Love the Cookie Monster reference @Shosh85 ๐Ÿ˜‚  one of the best parts of Sesame Street, besides my favorite Oscar the Grouch:)

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@eshoe  It's so hard to pick a favorite, I just love them all! Haha!

 

..... went to look for an Oscar the Grouch meme and this is the first thing that came up: ๐Ÿ˜‚

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

hahahahhaha @Shosh85 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

I seriously get that song in my head every time I see this mask @Shosh85 .  Every. Time.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@missjeanie  Haha! Right?! "Cookie, cookie, cookie starts with C".....๐Ÿช๐Ÿ˜‚

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

I have a few posts that apparently didnโ€™t actually post. Iโ€™ll get them up later. But just wanted to show watermelon love with my Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Sleeping Mask Set . The rest is my basic nightstand, I switch out perfumes regularly. Scents help me sleep. And that is a lip plumper from the seasonal Too Faced mini set. I use it every night under a lip mask.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@Weetart  Great choices! I love the heating eye masks! 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

This does look like a relaxing routine, @Weetart - that sleeping mask is especially cute!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Thanks @eshoe @lmaster @Shosh85 @missjeanie @itsfi . I have a variety of sleeping masks. But this is definitely one my favs.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@Weetart Looks so cute!  Do you use the steam eye mask under the watermelon mask, or use one then the other?  Also... Am I the only one who noticed the white claw and thought... ya... that's a good sleep routine! lol

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Hah! you spotted it ๐Ÿ˜‰ and I put it under the sleeping mask. I find it smooshes against my eye sockets better sleeping mask over top. @missjeanie
