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
@ather if you like green tea or tea scents, this is a great choice
Oooh, I love a true green tea scent in masks @lmaster! ๐ต
@itsfi oh yes!! The scent was perfection โบ๏ธ
@lmaster Mmmm...the scent on this sounds really nice!
@PrettyPaint it was such a great tea scent
I don't really consider snail to be an unusual ingredient, but this is the first mask I've seen/used that specifies it as black snail, so I'm counting it ๐๐
Jigott Real Ampoule Mask ~ Black Snail
Material:
Thin, sort of gauzy cotton
Serum:
Clear, thin, watery. A little extra in the pouch
Scent:
Light floral
Fit:
A smidge too wide at the forehead, a little too long at the chin, and the mouth and eye holes were just a tiny bit too small. The adherence was ok, but not the greatest - had to occasionally re-pat different parts of the mask down, mostly at the chin.
Wear Time:
Half hour
Tack:
Light. Stuck around for about 10 minutes.
Results:
Soft and smooth, lightly plump and hydrated skin with a subtle glow
Repurchase?
Yes, I probably would. The scent just makes me a little less excited about it.
Ingredients:
@Shosh85 Iโve never heard of black snail before. Glad it worked out. Itโs to bad about the scent
@ather Yeah, floral isn't my favorite, but it wasn't so bad on this one - I think the adherence was more annoying. ๐
@Shosh85 Iโm with you Iโm not a fan of floral or strong scented masks.
@Shosh85 I've not seen a black snail sheet mask before - how interesting! I wonder whether the snail secretion filtrate varies by species.
@PrettyPaint I totally need to research more on this. I'd be interested to know if there's a species of snail that's more commonly used in skincare ๐ค
@Shosh85 I need to research this more as well. I did a tiny bit the other day and couldn't find too much detail about specific species...if only I could get an internship with a skincare/masking company.
Ohhhh black snail?? @Shosh85 yep that's definitely a first I've seen ๐
@lmaster Yeah, it usually just says snail. Makes me wonder what species of snail is typically used in skincare. ๐ค Will have to do some researching!
I love a snail mask but havent done one in awhile. I will have to check this one out.
@ChrisCupcakes I love snail too! I wouldn't say this is my favorite though - I think my favorite one so far is by Etude House ๐
That is such a good snail mask @Shosh85 @ChrisCupcakes! Checks off a lot of boxes - snail ๐, good quality - thin sheet, nice serum consistency, excellent price point...
This sounds like a nice one, @Shosh85. I'm with you though, gone are the days of snail being an unusual ingredient for me now haha!
@quspork Yep, snail is nothin' new! This mask makes me wonder kind of snail is typically used in skincare..... will definitely have to research that ๐ค๐
100% with you @Shosh85! The snail isn't unusual to me either - it's actually a staple in my collection. Can't be without it. ๐ I've seen black snail as a skincare ingredient but I don't think I've use a mask with that particular species (is it a species?! Will need to look that up.). Your mask also fits the letter of the week challenge - G for gastropod!!! ๐๐ The material and results from this one sound good! ๐
Curious, have you tried other masks from this brand? I like the aesthetic on the packaging. Ummm, not that that would be the sole reason that I would pick up a mask... ๐๐คฃ๐ But let's be real, it does catch my attention!
@itsfi Oh my gosh, how could I forget G for Gastropod?!! Haha! ๐๐
I have tried 5 from this line and have 8 more left in my stash to use. So far I would say they're in the, good-not-great, filler-type masks category. ๐
