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
We'll be mask twinsies this week @missjeanie! ๐ค TCS eye masks are so good - the size of these masks has really worked out so well for me and my skin type.
I did tell myself that maybe I should look into picking up more artistic masks in 2021. But the stay-at-home has really helped to reduce the number of sheet masks I have and while I can pick up a few more, I want to keep my library more manageable and on the smaller side. Well, smaller compared to what I had before. So, maybe just a handful of artistic masks in the bin at any given time. ๐คฃ
@missjeanie, I've had percolating in my mind for a few years now, the concept of a curated collection of masks that I would set up like a mini library. I do mean "mini" because I can't have the library be too large. I mean, the sheet mask library version of the Smithsonian, it cannot be. ๐คฃ
@itsfi Lovely concept Gorgeous and wonderful results!
@tjffc, when I first used these eye masks from The Creme Shop, I thought they were just so large but the size has really come in handy for me. It covers the areas where I'm prone to be more dry. It doesn't hurt that with this one at least, the scent is amazing! Highly recommend these eye masks. ๐
@itsfi Oh yes, this is such a nice one! I remember the first time I tried it I was surprised how good it smelled!
The scent seriously needs to be bottled @PrettyPaint! ๐ An example of when added fragrance is done right.
Im embarrassed to say I have yet to try these. Maybe I'll wear one tomorrow while I'm cooking/getting ready for a party.๐ I think i have all the variations too. @itsfi glad to hear its a good one, im just so bad about using eye masks. And I should since i always get the "you look tired". Duh, people. Duh. ๐ณ
What @sonnydee?!!! People tell you that you look tired?! ๐ฎ I hope they were discreet about it. I shouldn't be surprised; in the past, there's been more than one occasion where I was told "oh, you really don't look so good." Thank you for that; no really; thank YOU! ๐คฃ Hahaha! The things people say. I've have these in my mask bin for ages it seems. I sometimes forget they are there but after using this one, I'm reminded how well these will come in handy when periodic breakouts or maskne means it might be better to not use a sheet mask on my chin / jawline area. Hope this one works out well for you. Have fun at your party!!!
Not really discreet ๐ณ@itsfi. and i even had that comment come up not just from family or "friends" but even acquaintances. And even if I have a newborn. Smh. ๐ฅ i havent heard it fairly recently since weve been at home more but I'm sure it's coming
Its ok @itsfi just helps me sharpen my wittiness/sarcastic responses. And if i don't like the person...๐พ...im not even joking the things I come up.with. Some people just lack common sense/manners/courtesy.
Excellent outlook @sonnydee! ๐ค Itโs good to have a healthy dialogue of wit and sarcasm with yourself every now and again! Keeps the mind sharp! ๐
B is for Benton
Benton Goodbye Redness Centella Mask Pack
Material:
Thin cotton
Serum:
Clear and watery. A little extra in the pouch for hands and arms
Scent:
None that I could tell
Fit:
Almost perfect- just a smidge too long at the chin/jawline
Wear Time:
Half hour
Tack:
Very light and only stuck around for less than 10 minutes
Results:
Soft and smooth, lightly hydrated skin and a brighter, more even complexion.
I used a Biore nose strip right before this mask and it cleared up the redness I got from it.
Repurchase?
Yes, definitely! I would actually love to have permanent backups of this one. It makes a great soothing mask and a perfect one to have handy when my skin is acting up.
@Shosh85 Yay! I really like centella as a mask ingredient.
@PrettyPaint Oh, me too! It's definitely one of my favorite skincare ingredients! ๐
I'm in 100% agreement with you on having permanent backups of this mask @Shosh85! ๐ Benton has a small curation of sheet masks but they are so good! โค๏ธ
@itsfi Happy to hear it's a love for you too! I would definitely love to try the others from the brand! ๐
@Shosh85, is this the first Benton sheet mask youโve used? They have an aloe one that I really like - it along with this Cica one falls into the category of โmasks to keep on hand for skin emergencies.โ Both are in my skincare first aid kit. Benton also makes a sheet mask version of their popular snail bee serum.
@itsfi Yup, this is my first one! I remember you reviewing the Aloe and Snail-bee ones and I would definitely like to pick those up sometime! I also saw a Fermentation one I'd like to try as well. ๐
