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?

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

This one sounds really nice, @faeriegirl! You've got me trying to remember if I've tried a knit mask before... darn this poor memory. 

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

@faeriegirl  Oooh, this one looks and sounds great! I can't remember what knit mask I've tried, but I remember it being pretty comfy ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Happy to hear you enjoyed this one! 

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

@faeriegirl  Oh my goodness, this mask looks so cool! I never really connected knitting with masking before, but that might actually be a nice combination.

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

@faeriegirl  Ooo this one sounds good. The package really caught my eyes too!

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

Love the packaging @faeriegirl sounds really nice

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

@faeriegirl, one of my first introductions to Neogen was this knit mask; they also have a pink version. Glad to hear you liked this one; ๐Ÿ’› the brandโ€™s white truffle line also has a lot of good, nourishing skincare. 

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

Wow this one has so many good ingredients, @faeriegirl! The imagery is fun, too. Good to know Neogen makes a line specifically for sensitive skin, adding this to my to-try list!

A. by BOM Ultra Royal Glow Queen Mask

 

Material:

Thin tencel

 

Serum:

It looked like slimy honey and felt sort of soft and silky

 

Scent:

I loved how this one smelled - like sweet honey

 

Fit:

Just a little too long at the chin and a bit too wide at the temples

 

Wear Time:

40 minutes

 

Tack:

Super tacky, stuck around for about 15 minutes

 

Results:

My face looked brighter, more awake, had a nice glow and felt soft and smooth. The hydration from this was also excellent and lasted for quite a while.

 

Repurchase?

This was actually my second time trying out this mask, and I loved it this time as much as the last! I'll definitely continue to repurchase!

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

@Shosh85  I love everything you described about this mask! It must be really nice for 40 minutes wear time. If you remember, how is the fit around the eye holes? I don't like wearing masks for an extended amount of time unless they fit nicely in that area.

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

@PrettyPaint  Darn it, I didn't really pay close attention to the eyeholes ๐Ÿค” - which means they were probably a good size though, because I usually make sure to jot down if they're too small. 

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

@Shosh85  The smell of honey with a silky texture. Sounds perfect. Looking at the package I thought it would have been some sort venom mask. But I was pleasantly surprised when you said honey!

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

@ather  I have tried a bee venom mask before, and while I actually did like really like it, it definitely doesn't beat this one! Loved pretty much everything about this one! ๐Ÿ˜

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

@Shosh85 look at the cute bee โ˜บ๏ธ

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

@lmaster  I know, right? The packaging is what first sucked me in! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ๐Ÿฏ

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

This sounds like the best one so far from that brand, @Shosh85! Adding another one to my post-no-buy listโ˜บ๏ธ

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

I really loved this one @eshoe! Definitely one I'll be stocking up on soon! ๐Ÿ๐Ÿฏ

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

I loved this one @Shosh85!๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿฏ

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

Isn't wonderful @faeriegirl? Definitely an all-time favorite for me! Glad to hear it's a love for you too! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿฏ๐Ÿ

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

This sounds like it hits a lot of the right spots- tencel, honey scent, good results. I can see why you're liking it, @Shosh85!

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

@quspork  It's sooo good! Definitely checks off a lot of boxes for me! ๐Ÿ‘

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

@Shosh85, so happy to hear you like this one - the repurchase test is a great indicator of a good mask. There's a lot of fabulous things with this mask - Tencel (ohhh, one of my favorite types of material), smells like honey ๐Ÿฏ and those results this one gave you are wonderful! This one is probably my favorite of the A by Bom sheet masks I've tried, though I haven't tried that many - something to work on. ๐Ÿ˜ It's been a while since I've asked ... but I'm going to ask, what's your favorite honey sheet mask that hasn't been discontinued (Because I think the Secret Key Banana Honey was a favorite of yours, right? Sooo good that one!)? Or favorites, because I would completely understand if there were more than one favorite honey mask. lol ๐Ÿ˜‰
