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’–

@heartsmyface, I'm on a sheet mask (or any mask, for that matter) no-buy until the end of March. I went off of it briefly to pick up the JLo sheet mask but am going to refrain from buying (or try to) any sheet mask for the next couple of months. I should hopefully ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿผ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿผ be closer to where I want to be with my sheet mask count by then.

DillyDelight mask for D week (and I have another packet for E for Egging next (this?) week). I got this a while ago from Ipsy and it needed to be used. I think I put off using it because the packaging was too cute. This was a really good mask.  It was messy, especially to mix with the included spoon, but it was nicely hydrating, cooling and a creamy gel consistency. B+ for results and A+ for cuteness. 

 

2 masks for numbers week, I think I've mentioned both before:

 

24k Gold Glow mask from Kazuo Beauty. The best part about this mask is that the serum is gold speckled. It is mildly brightening but the mask is itchy, ill fitting, and didn't hydrate or soothe. D-/F

 

I think almost everyone's reviewed the 111 skin rose gold brightening masks recently. I really like these masks. I love a hydrogel, they're brightening and just nicely prep the skin. They're a good special occasion mask IMO. Or you got a couple boxes in subscription boxes and now you've got some to use before they expire. I usually have enough work conference presentations or publicity shoots (cringe) to use them, but the first event like that I've had in a year should be next month, so I have to use a couple in the meantime. So, hello Sunday night start the week off with bright skin. A-.

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

@haleyvvvv that Dillydelight mask brings the biggest smile to my face ๐Ÿ˜„ @lmaster @Shosh85 Love that packaging!!!

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

Same!!! ๐Ÿ˜‚ @haleyvvvv @Shosh85 @eshoe it's too cute to use!! 

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

@haleyvvvv  I have a DillyDelight Egging pack too and the cuteness is definitely the reason for not using it yet! Glad you enjoyed it!

The 111 Skin mask sounds so great! Do you remember what it smells like?

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

Like, mine expires soon (like in a day or two, lol) so it was finally time. I'm glad I finally did, though, cause the inside is also SO CUTE.

 

The 111 skin doesn't have much of a scent from what I recall, @Shosh85 

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

@haleyvvvv omg that packaging is so funny! Glad to hear it was nice and hydrating!

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

Its so cute and funny, just A+ packaging. Thank you, @Kim888!!

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

Oh, numbers masks from each end of the rating spectrum @haleyvvvv! Yikes to to that Kazu Beauty mask - an itchy mask does not sound good at all, but that 111 Skin mask sure is a treat! 

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

An itchy mask is no good, @itsfi!! I didn't even notice that my number masks were both ends ๐Ÿ˜…

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

Image hydrating bio sheet mask ๐Ÿ˜ my fave for my clients and at home. Especially love to apply to my clients after a microderm for that glow and plump and normalizes and rednesa from tx๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿคฉ

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

Love a good bio cellulose mask, @Kimberlyfs! Thank you for the new mask suggestion, will be off to researchโ˜บ๏ธ

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

@Kimberlyfs  Ooh, I've never heard of this one! Definitely love the sound of plump and glowy skin! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

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

@Kimberlyfs, I love following up a peel or microdermabrasion with a bio-cellulose sheet mask - T.L.C. for the skin.๐Ÿ˜ This is the first time I've heard of Image; I've jotted the name down so I can look up that mask. It's always fun to hear about a new-to-me brand. 

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

This is for D

 

Dr. Jart+ Dermask Water Jet Vital Hydra Solution. I took a photo, but then I realized I could just be lazy and tag it instead. Yay.

 

I could be wrong, but I feel like a lot of people like this one. I can't make up my mind about it...haha. The fit was not too great for me - It was pretty large, particularly along the nose bridge. I liked the cellulose fiber material (it felt comfy). I am a fan of hyaluronic acid, and it was quite refreshing and slightly hydrating. I think the main turnoff for me was the high alcohol content (it's #4 on the list). When I was trying to determine the scent, it reminded me mostly of hand sanitizer (hence the alcohol). Anyhow, I kind of like it, but I think it would probably be a better summer mask for me.

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

@PrettyPaint  I haven't tried this one yet, but it's good to hear you like it despite the alcohol! I think my favorite from Dr. Jart so far is their Cicapair sheet mask! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

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

@Shosh85  Oooh, I love cicapair. I don't know if I've tried the Dr. Jart cicapair mask...I think just the color correcting treatment in the jar.

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

I think this may have been the first Dr. Jart mask I ever tried @PrettyPaint! At the time, I thought it was wonderful and, while it is a good mask, there are other Dr. Jart sheet masks that I like more, like the water replenishment mask for hydration; the ceramidin mask for moisture; and the V7 for brightening. Notice that I didn't list the Dr. Jart creepy baby face rubber mask?! Hahaha! Because ... creepy baby face. Are there hyaluronic acid based sheet masks that you like a lot?

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

@itsfi  I can't remember...have you actually tried the creepy baby face one? Back in the days of TJ Maxx I remember seeing that one--And as tempting as it was to buy Dr. Jart on sale, I could not bring myself to do it.

 

H.A. masks I like...I'm sure I am forgetting some or just don't recall it being in the ingredients. Definitely the Mediheal N.M.F. comes to mind. I like the Farmacy one as well. 

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

@PrettyPaint, I've tried 2 of the creepy baby face masks - the one in the yellow and blue packaging which I think is for hydration and then I think there's one that orange and teal, but I don't recall what the purpose of that one was. So (and I have to tag @Shosh85 about this), I just typed "creepy baby face mask" to do a search and those Dr. Jart masks pop up!!! ๐Ÿคฃ True story.

 

Another true story . . . a while back I was in a Sephora store and they had the creepy baby face masks on one of the shelves. I don't remember exactly how many, maybe half a dozen? And they assembled them in a pyramid of sorts with all the creepy baby face lid facing outward, so that that is what everyone saw. ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ˜ฉ  Let's just say that someone rearranged the display so that the cups were all standing upright with the creepy baby face and the "straw" poking out of the baby's mouth was facing the ceiling, rendering it not visible to passersby. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚ 

 

Ahhh, Mediheal N.M.F., that is such a great mask! ๐Ÿ’™ The Farmacy one too! 

 

 

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

@itsfi  Oh you are hilarious!! And brave for trying them. I also just googled creepy baby face and there were these disturbing clay macarons and even more scary food-related creepy baby face items. Apparently this is a thing.
