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
I love your collection of green tea masks, @itsfi. You've got a great idea about using the letter of the week to do an ingredient focus across several different masks. That can be really helpful to compare different masks and see which ones are worth the repurchase!
Thank you @quspork! ๐ค It was helpful to try them out so close to one another; made it really easy to tell which performed better for me. Now that my mask supply is more manageable, I plan to have more weekly maskings centered on one ingredient.
@itsfi This all looks so soothing.
Love a cup of green tea and a green tea mask @heartsmyface! ๐๐ต
This is from the theme from @itsfi last week (the sample-sized mask that you had to have immediately):
I'm way behind on reading posts so I'm guessing this has been posted a bunch, but this is one of my winter masking loves:
Farmacy Honey Potion Renewing Antioxidant Hydration Mask
I'm sure I've written about this one before, but I enjoy everything about this mask. I love the gentle warm feeling after you rub it in, and it keeps my skin soft and hydrated throughout the day. I also love honey stuff, so this is a nice, comforting treat for me each time I use it. ๐
@PrettyPaint Such a great mask!!!
@ather Glad you love it too! โค๏ธ
Truly one of the best masks, @PrettyPaint!!
@haleyvvvv I think I will keep repurchasing this one forever!
@PrettyPaint love the warming sensation
@lmaster Me too. It's just perfect for this time of year.
@PrettyPaint Such a good one! I especially love to use it in the winter! Glad to hear you're loving it too! ๐๐ฏ
@Shosh85 So perfect for winter!
@PrettyPaint @Definitely one of the best masks!!
@Kim888 Totally agree. They better never discontinue it!
Glad to hear this one works well for you, @PrettyPaint! I can definitely see why so many people love it in the winter.
@quspork Yep! It's the perfect winter evening mask for me.
I love this mask @PrettyPaint! ๐๐ฏ So good, especially in the colder seasons. The warmth from it feels comforting and I love how soft, smooth and hydrated my skin looks and feels afterwards. ๐ฅฐ I have several DS of this one and itโs been one of the wash off masks that Iโve been rotating through this month and last month. ๐
@itsfi It's definitely a mask that I don't think I could ever get sick of! And so nice for cold winter nights.
REN Evercalm mask - This isn't my favorite calming mask, but its okay. It slightly reduced redness and provided a bit of hydration and softness. For me, despite my dryish skin, it just kinda sits on top, but also sinks in too much and makes my skin a little greasy. I had a DS open, so I finished it off at the beginning of the week when my skin was feeling still a bit in need of tlc. Definitely not a DS that made me buy the full size, unlike my more preferred calming masks (Origins Original Skin and FAB Rescue Mask).
Mediheal A:Pe Soothing Mask - Can trying a single mask and then buying a 10 pack count toward a sample that made me buy a full size? Thats what I'm going with. This is my favorite sheet mask. I love it. I use it after my weekly peel type treatments or when my skin just needs some more tending to.
Skin's Boni Yogurt Bonimini Wash Off Mud Pack with Green Tea - I got this in a skincare set, so wasn't seeking it out. It was very dry. Like so dry i couldn't spread it (the expiration date is at the end of the year). I mixed with a but of water and was able spread some on my face. I kept on for a little over 10 min and it was very dry and my face was already too tight. It took a lot of effort to rinse off, but did leave my skin looking clear and my pores looking smaller. The green tea made this mask have an off scent (like a sickly green tea with the mud, it wasn't for me). I don't recommend.
Midflower Hyaluronic Hydrating Mask - After my mud mask, I needed a super hydrating mask. This fit the bill. This was a great mask, I'm really glad I got it from Ipsy. The fit was large, but didn't bunch very much, and didn't slip because it was bigger. So much serum, I was able to spread all on my upper body. Fragrance is last ingredient, but didn't really have a scent. Definitely tacky, but I mask at end of day, so doesn't bother me. Wore for 30 min. Definitely have hydrated and softer skin after. A
@haleyvvvv I always have the A:pe masks on hand too. I really enjoy them! Interesting the yogurt one was dry I would have thought it would be more gooey.
