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?

Thank you @Aaliaa for starting this thread, and giving us a place to share our love for masks๐Ÿ’—

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Ok I was every curious about the Facetory mask, @Kim888. I wanted to try it to see what their waffle sheet is like, to compare it to the Kocostar. Thanks for the ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ I will add this one to my list, also!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888  The Chamomile mask sounds great! There have been a couple Facetory masks that have surprised me! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

The Chamomile mask sounds really lovely, @Kim888.

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888 I honestly wouldn't expect a nuetral scent looking at the packaging of both of these masks, good to know!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Tonightโ€™s masking was thanks to a little nudge from @Samtian, who convinced me to try this Cooling Leg Wrap:

Spoiler
It is the boots version of foot masks. Kocostarโ€™s Leg Relax Therapy seemed intriguing with its promise of a cooling sensation. They are indeed quite lengthy, with identical โ€˜bootsโ€™ running clear up to my knees. Each has three sticky tabs for a decent fit. I was expecting them to slip/slide partially down, but they both withstood my constant motion without a hitch.

After a few minutes, I began to feel a cooling around my legs. This was nice; subtle, but very refreshing. Unlike the Dr.Jart+ foot masks that only warmed when still, these provided a constant soothing coolness. I left them on for over an hour. I did not want to remove them; they were much to comfortable. I finally did, and found my legs sparsely covered in a pale, milky lotion-like serum. I massaged it to help it absorb and noticed a slight minty/eucalyptus scent that was completely undetectable while worn. My legs did remain tacky for a few minutes, and retained the โ€˜coolโ€™ feeling a bit longer as well.

This is one of those masks that is just fun to try ( remember the Bawdy ones๐Ÿ˜‚) at least once. Would love to try this in the summer, after a day of being out in the sunshine โ˜€๏ธ, would definitely repurchase!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@eshoe  It definitely sounds like a fun one to try, especially in the summer! Glad you enjoyed them! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

I think you would enjoy them, @Shosh85. Ideally they would be best if you could just have a seat and relax for a bit, but not sure how feasible that is in real life๐Ÿ˜†

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@eshoe   Oh my gosh I could really use that one right now! ๐Ÿ˜ญafter hiking up a mountain yesterday my legs are going to fall off.  Iโ€™ve got kyusoku Jikan cooling sheets stuck to my shins and calves which is helping but boy do those look good!   

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Oooh I had to research those, @heartsmyface - sounds like a must-have for summer! If they last at least 30 minutes, it would be so worth it. I bet that exercise felt lovely. Cathartic might be the word I am looking for๐Ÿ˜Œ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Oh how interesting, @eshoe! I bet these would be a nice relaxing mask after a day out in the sun. 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Yes I agree, @quspork! I questioned whether or not trying them in the winter would be a good idea, but Iโ€™m glad I did. Summer would be even better;)

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@eshoe I forgot about those!! Do you have any idea the circumference of them?

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Samtian approximately 8โ€ at the top. Nice find, these are so fun!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@eshoe 8!? Dang I won't get to try those lol. 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Oh bummer, @Samtian ๐Ÿ˜• they really should make more than OS, you know?

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@eshoe That would be nice.

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Oh this looks so cool!! @eshoe 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

It most definitely is cool, @lmaster ๐Ÿ˜‰ I bet you would get a kick out of these!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Haha!! Kick ๐Ÿ˜‰ @eshoe 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@eshoe @Oh wow Iโ€™ve never seen anything like that!! That sounds interesting though - feet masks always feel so luxurious 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Foot masks are great and I rarely use them, so this was a very special treat, @Kim888 ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ I recommend!
