💕😌 2024 Masking Challenge 😌💖

[eshoe]

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 💮

Spoiler

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?

@eshoe ohhhh all these products sound really cool!! The crystals, the lip mask and eye mask!! The illustration is too cute

[eshoe]

Thank you @lmaster, love trying new ingredients like this! Yes the print on TCS mask is adorable, thanks again, beautiful ☺️💖

The Starskin Orglamic Pink Cactus Mask is a two step mask.  You start with applying 3-4 drops of prickly pear seed oil.  It had no scent.  The mask itself is super saturated in thin milky serum that smells fresh  and tart.  The fit is nice and it conforms well.  I felt a bit of tingling on my lips and around my mouth from this.  Nothing uncomfortable but I’m not sure that’s supposed to happen.  My skin felt a little sticky after using this.  I applied some more oil afterward like the package suggested and that seemed to help with the stickiness.  My skin has a nice glow to it and feels very hydrated.  I’d buy this again

Ooouh, milky serum? I’m intrigued @heartsmyface. Putting it on my list. For someone working on working through what masks I have, I probably shouldn’t me making a list. 🤣 Have you used other Starskin masks? I’ve seen them in the store but don’t think I’ve ever tried one...yet.

[heartsmyface]

@itsfi   Ha, i know!  The list kinda helps though cause then I feel a little like I am shopping but without pressing purchase.  

I actually have a couple other starskin masks I bought in HK.  they’re not cool and multi step like this one though.  I can’t recall if I’ve tried them but am sure I have...  there was a time I could recall

every mask I’d tried.  

[lmaster]

@heartsmyface super cute packaging!

[eshoe]

Ooooh this is a nice mask, @heartsmyface - love the extra little oil pack. I liked it too, I think I snagged one from the motm box a while back. They have a celery cleansing balm that is extra gentle, too;)

[heartsmyface]

@eshoe @It’s becoming a blur where my masks came from.  I maaaaay have got it from a motm box but am not certain.  I know I’ve picked this brand up in London so it’s either a traveling box or from there.  
I haven’t tried any of their actual skincare but i tend to like most cleansing balms and I am in love with the volition celery moisturizer so my interest is peaked.

This sounds pretty nice, @heartsmyface. I don't think I've seen a pink cactus mask before. 

[heartsmyface]

@quspork   Me neither. It smelled enough like dragon fruit I had to check to make sure they weren’t the same thing. They’re not. 

[Shosh85]

@heartsmyface  Oooh, prickly pear oil and pink cactus sounds so nice! Glad to hear it turned out great! 😃

[heartsmyface]

@Shosh85   It was such a nice combo!  my skin was so happy the next day too so I forgive any stickiness.

C is for Callyssee

• The sheet is a thin to medium flexible thickness that was a bit long around the jaw and chin area. The philtrum area did not adhere well at all, it would completely come off the area. 
• Thin white milky serum, not much left in the package
• The scent was phenomenal!! Honestly,, one of the best scents I've had the pleasure smelling from a sheet mask. You can smell the coffee bean scent along with a raspberry fruity scent....pure heaven!!
• Wear time was 25 minutes
• After removing I massaged the remaining serum, I felt more hydrated and definitely nourished and moisturized skin
• The tackiness did not go away immediately, I purposely did not apply moisturizer right away to see how it would feel as time progressed. It did get better with time, but took over an hour for the tack to not be noticeable
• I did really enjoy this mask, and would order a pack of these at some point, but I'm not rushing at the moment

I like this mask @lmaster! Hard not to like it with its coffee bean scent and milky scent! A treat for the skin and the nose! 😃

[lmaster]

@itsfi it's fabulous for sure!!

[eshoe]

Yes @lmaster the raspberry ketones! @itsfi mentioned this as another mask that had that ingredient, so glad you reviewed it:) making my list and I definitely want to try this one!

[lmaster]

@eshoe it's worth it!! Its a lovely mask

[Shosh85]

@lmaster  I got this one in my Ipsy a while back and definitely fell in love with that scent! Happy to hear you enjoyed it too! 😃

[lmaster]

That had to of been where I received it from! @Shosh85 😆 isn't the scent just.... Ahhhhhh

[heartsmyface]

Ouhh the scent of this sounds wonderful.  ...Why do I feel like I’ve tried this before yet I simultaneously have no recollection of it? 😅. 

[quspork]

This sounds pretty nice, @lmaster. I can totally get behind a nice coffee raspberry scent.
