Welcome to the Skin & Body Care Masking Challenge!
Feel free to join in whenever and wherever. Share your thoughts and observations on a mask you have tried, we need all the details, please! Most importantly - have fun!
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💗
@lmaster, thank you! The mask was fine; I think it suffers from having to compete with lots of really great masks used over the years. Also, just because it wasn’t great for me doesn’t mean it won’t be a wow for someone else.
@itsfi That's an interesting one. I don't think I've ever noticed coenzyme Q10 as a mask ingredient before.
@PrettyPaint, it’s usually listed on ingredients list as “ubiquinone”; I didn’t know they were the same thing for the longest time! What would we do without the internet?!!
@itsfi Ahhhh! I'll definitely be looking for that in the future. I wish I could say I was a little bit more thoughtful about looking through all of the ingredients list, but sometimes I just scan the first five or so...
That’s completely understandable @PrettyPaint! I usually just skim through the inci list to make sure it doesn’t have any ingredients I know my skin might react poorly to. Some days I do a better job of skimming than others. 🤷🏻♀️
@itsfi Hmm, I don't think I've never seen a Tofu mask before! Another mask ingredient to add to my bucket list. 😉 Too bad it wasn't anything special. I feel like this brand makes a lot of filler-type masks
Yeah @Shosh85, it's the first I've seen of a tofu sheet mask. That's actually why I purchased this one; had to give it a try, you know?! I feel like there might be one or perhaps a line of sheet masks from Mitomo (though I could be mistaking the brand) that I liked more than the others, which as you said, seem to make for good filler masks. I think that makes sense in some respects as filler masks can make for good daily sheet masks and that (daily sheet masking) is, for the most part, fairly common in Japan and Korea. I have a few more from this line that I'll work through, but after trying two from this line, my expectations will be that these are fine masks but not necessarily standouts.
Still rolling with the healthy food tie ins eh @itsfi ? lol, I know what you mean about being picky on moisturizing and hydrating masks. I find that I almost defend 'brightening' or 'firming' masks as needing more time/consistency to have an effect on my skin while I expect a moisturizing one to have an immediate effect.
Hahaha! I think that's my last food themed masking for the week @missjeanie! I had half a cupcake this week, some ice cream last weekend, and pizza last night (so good!), so maybe the healthy food tie-in is probably my attempt to balance out the other food happenings in my life the last couple of weeks. 😅 Rest assured, there will be a less healthy food tie in at some point. 😉
That is so me - oh, a hydrating or moisturizing mask, you say? Or both are claimed? Hmmm... Better be good. 😂 And then there's brightening and anti-aging, a single, isolated use is hardly enough to test the accuracy of the claims... Yeah, I can see the double standard there. Oops. 🙄😮😣 But seriously, sheet masks are ordinarily intended to help with hydration so if really needs to meet that minimum standard stat, right?!
@itsfi I've only been doing groceries every two weeks so my ice cream supply is nil at this point. However I did have ingredients on hand to make snickerdoodles this morning... I could be eating one right now? Salad for dinner though lol!
And yes! I get a bit of brightening from any sheet mask I find, a bit of a plumping, but I expect any sheet mask to act as a bit of an essence or serum and I unless it says clearing or some other form of acne control on the mask, I expect to leave feeling more hydrated... and if you're claiming hydrating.... I want some juicy skin! The double standard is real in this house, you are not alone.
B is for Blueberry
@lmaster This looks lovely and is really making me want to try out some goodal masks!
@PrettyPaint I honestly feel like this is a perfect mask
Oh so nice that there was no tackiness with this one @lmaster , I know how much of a bummer it is to so many. And a nice light blueberry scent sounds just lovely this time of year.
I don't mind a mask that's tacky only if I knew in advance @missjeanie that way I could use it as a primer mask for makeup
This is the "flavor" from the line that I'm most keen to try @lmaster! Love blueberries! Love Goodal. Making a note that this is a winner for you!
B is for Broccoli
@missjeanie, doesn't this make you want to have a plate of broccoli right about now?! 🤣
