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?

Too Cool For School Egg Cream Mask

 

Material:

Medium thickness cotton

 

Serum:

Milky

 

Scent:

Sort of a combo of clean & fresh and floral? It was light and I thought it was pleasant enough

 

Fit:

Just a bit long at the chin

 

Wear Time:

Half hour

 

Tack:

Very light tack and it only stuck around for about 5 minutes

 

Results:

My face looked a little brighter and felt soft and nicely hydrated.

 

Repurchase?

Yes, absolutely! Just maybe not at retail price, because I'm too cheap to spend $6 on one mask ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜‚

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

@Shosh85 I might just be the lone voice of dissent on this one! Too sticky-icky for me ๐Ÿ˜‚ The Egg Mellow Cream Moisturizer is ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ, if you get a chance to try it sometime.

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

@eshoe  I remember you mentioning that about this one! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Good to know about the moisturizer - will have to give it a try sometime๐Ÿ‘

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

@Shosh85   These were my first absolute favorite mask!  I love how slimey and effective they are.  Theyโ€™re hard to find this side of the ocean nowadays. Where do you get them over here?  And yeah, agreed $6 is a little steep.  I know theyre only $4 in Japan and Korea so I have a hard time swallowing the markup. 

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

@heartsmyface  "Slimey and effective" is a perfect description!๐Ÿ‘ŒIt is soo good! The very first time I tried it, I was lucky and found them at TJ Maxx, but that was awhile ago and haven't seen them there since then. I got this one online from the RoseRoseShop (in Korea) and even with their shipping prices, it still came out to be cheaper than retail.

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

Totally love this one too ๐Ÿ™Œ @Shosh85 

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

@lmaster  Glad to hear you love it too! Definitely seems to be pretty popular around here! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

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

@Shosh85 I love the egg cream stuff!

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

@Samtian this mask is the equivalent to an avocado one for you ๐Ÿ˜ it is sooooo slimy!

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

@eshoe Ahahahaha.

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

@Samtian  I can see why! Haven't tried anything else from the line, but would definitely like to! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

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

@Shosh85 this is one of my faves as well!! Always a repurchase for me 

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

@Kim888  I can definitely see why it's one of your favorites! It's so good! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

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

This is such a good mask @Shosh85! I was bummed when Sephora stopped carrying TCFS. ๐Ÿ˜ž For sheet masks, what price range is the most comfortable for you?

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

@itsfi  Don't get me wrong, I have definitely splurged on some expensive masks, but I think now that my collection is so huge, it's hard for me to spend more than $3 on one. Maybe when/if I get my collection under control I'll feel better about spending a little more. ๐Ÿ˜‰

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

@Shosh85   $3 sounds about right for solid cotton or tencel sheet masks.  If itโ€™s biocellulose I am happy to spend between $6-10 but Iโ€™d rather buy them in packs of 4-10 to get a deal.  I splurge mostly when travelling cause I can rationalize itโ€™s part of the travel expenses ๐Ÿ™‚ 

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

@heartsmyface  Yep, I totally agree, it depends on the mask, or maybe even the mood I'm in, lol! I know there are some masks I've loved so much that I'd be willing to pay more for! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

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

I hear ya @Shosh85! It definitely depends on the mask and it makes perfect sense about the size of the sheet mask collection. $3 sounds like a reasonable price. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ When my sheet mask no buy has been permanently lifted, maybe Iโ€™ll keep track of what my spend is on sheet masks. ๐Ÿ“ 

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

@itsfi   I have solidified my mask buying ban after going through my sheet masks and decluttering 54 expired masks.   It was painful but I feel better now that theyโ€™re gone.  Iโ€™ve got my masks sorted by  expiry now so that should t happen again. 

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

Oooh, Iโ€™m intrigued @heartsmyface. What are you thinking about for your ban? All year? Months? 

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

@itsfi  Well right now itโ€™s going to be at least two months before I have room for anything new. I donโ€™t want to have as much as I still have so even then Iโ€™m going to have to keep it down to ten new masks every couple months for a while.  
how about you?  What are your rules?
