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

@Shosh85

Me before reading your review on this one: "hmmm, I don't think I have this one." ๐Ÿค”

Me after reading your review on this one: "yeah, I won't need to pick up this one." 

This sounds like it might have been fine, maybe even a good mask, if you haven't been using sheet masks for a while. ๐Ÿ˜† The shosh85 seal of approval (or lack thereof) makes for an excellent roadmap when it comes to my future sheet mask purchases! ๐Ÿค— Looks like I'll just stick to my supplements to get in my B12. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@itsfi  Haha! Yeah, I've definitely gotten more picky about masks!  I wouldn't say this one was bad at all, it just really didn't seem to do much of anything. Kinda felt like a wasted a half hour. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Well.. you just saved me 10$ @Shosh85 .  Lol... every now and again I look at TCS masks again and think that I have enough of them already, but then other times I'm on a "gotta try em all" race.  

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@missjeanie  I totally know what you mean! The Creme Shop masks are so hit-and-miss and yet I just can't keep myself from buying them. ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜ฌ 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@Kim888  This was really a neat theme this week. Thanks so much for thinking of it! 

 

I didn't have to search in my stash too much, but I felt this one fit the artistic theme nicely.

 

NOHJ 24K Gold Mask - Peptide.

 

I used this earlier in the week, so I unfortunately can't remember all of the details. I believe there was a bit of a floral smell, but nothing too terrible. The actual mask was lovely, and it seemed hydrating. While wearing it, I felt like my skin felt the tiniest bit itchy (it could be from the lavender or lemon extract), but honestly it could just be my skin. If I'm feeling anxious, my skin tends to freak out in general. That being said, I would have liked to have kept it on longer, but I removed it a bit sooner than usual just in case.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

So pretty, @PrettyPaint - it's a shame it caused a little itchiness. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@quspork  Yes - so fancy! I am prone to itchiness, so I imagine most people would be totally ok. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@PrettyPaint @Thats disappointing to hear! I do have this in my collection so Iโ€™ll be sure to be pay extra attention when I try it !!

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@Kim888  I wouldn't be too worried about it, but I'll be curious to hear your thoughts. My skin is extra sensitive this time of year and when I'm stressed, so I anticipate you'll be totally fine. ๐Ÿ™‚

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@PrettyPaint  Oooh, this one's so fancy! I'm happy it turned nice despite the itchiness! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Thanks so much @Shosh85. It was a nice treat.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Thats one classy looking mask @PrettyPaint !

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@missjeanie  Haha! I know. I felt like I should be going out somewhere afterwards. In reality I just stayed home in yoga pants.

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@PrettyPaint What a gorgeous mask!   I'm glad to hear it was hydrating. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@tjffc  Thanks so much! I always get excited when a mask has a print. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

Now, that is an artistic mask @PrettyPaint! Gorgeous!! ๐Ÿ˜ Sorry it gave your skin the itchies. Hopefully no other adverse effects from it. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@itsfi  I was glad I was able to find it in my nearby stash for the week! ๐Ÿ™‚  My skin is doing fine currently, so no negative reactions. 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

B for Black

This came from a MOTM box & I love Erno so I was really looking forward to it & have been looking for it at the TJ/M I visit

 

Fit? Its a 2 part,slippery mask that sandwiched between layers. If you are a frequent masker, its no trouble-you are pretty used it it by now. Some of the reviews however must not be frequent maskers. They knocked off stars for this ๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜’

 

Smell? It was just last night. And I don't remember. ๐Ÿ˜‚ it was pleasant enough

 

Consistency? The mask itself is black. The serum is on the thicker side, almost gel like. It as net like texture on one side, i guess to hold the serum better

 

Ease of use?no issues. I think i left this on about 40 min..i couldve went longer. I did have some pilling on my neck but the everything soaked in eventually with very little tack

 

Would I  purchase/try again? I did have some tingling, not unpleasant but noticeable. {From past experiences I take note & pay attention in case it gets worse. It didn't & actually went away. My pores did look smaller after removing. I think will continue to look for it as a set in a box at a TJ or M.  @@ a deal, in other words would make me pick this mask up. I don't think I would pay full price for 1 mask. You can get the same immediate results with a much cheaper mask. Can't say whether or not long term results. I did like it though. Thank you to whoever put it in. ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@sonnydee sounds like a pretty nice one! 

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@sonnydee  I've tried a few of these and I feel the same as you about them - they're nice masks, but not nice enough to pay retail prices. Glad it worked out well for you! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Re: Mask of the Week Challenge

@Shosh85 i don't think i have tried a expensive mask that i would pay full price for yet.๐Ÿค”
