💕😌 2024 Masking Challenge 😌💖

[eshoe]

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 💮

Spoiler

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 masks💗

It never fails, @heartsmyface. I put it off for so long, even though I distinctly remembered enjoying the other one. I suppose I was saving it for a special day? Like the day I couldn’t buy any more? Time to re-evaluate my masking strategy 🤷🏻‍♀️ 

That’s very sweet of you to offer, also-though you may enjoy it just as much as I did😉

[heartsmyface]

@eshoe   I don’t have it!  I think I had one and decluttered it thinking it was a mud mask cause that packaging is looking sooooo familiar.   Did it feel squishy like a mud mask?   

[eshoe]

It wasn’t like a mud/clay sheet mask @heartsmyface. More like a jelly one, the serum, anyway. That’s ok, so thoughtful of you to even think of doing that! 

btw I see holo taco has a peel off base, that seems very cool. Also the glass nail files! I bought the Sephora one and let my daughter use it as soon as I opened it. It fell on the tile and broke. Never even tried it. It looked like it would have worked well, though.

[heartsmyface]

@eshoe  Oh my gosh the peel off base is addictive!  Prepare to need to paint your nails everyday if you’re a nail polish picker!  It’s so satisfying!  

also get your glass nail files on Amazon!  They’re way cheaper for the same thing!  You can get 3 for $12!  I love how they buff your nails super shiny with minimal effort too!  So addictive! They last a little longer than sandpaper ones and work better and are more sanitary so I’ll never go back!  
That’s maddening you didn’t even get to try it!  I’ll be forever afraid of dropping them now!  

[eshoe]

Ahhhhh that’s exactly what I was hoping to hear, @heartsmyface! I wonder how well it would work with glitter nail polish. That stuff is a real hassle to remove, and I have so much of it that I don’t wear for that reason alone. Thanks for the introduction:)

[ather]

@eshoe  Oh no! I hate when they discontinue a love. 

[eshoe]

It’s the saga of masking drama, @ather 😭 

[itsfi]

@eshoe, I enjoyed using the few masks from this line that I tried. It's too bad it's being discontinued, but of course, it is. I for inevitable.

[eshoe]

@itsfi I let out a little chuckle at your comment. I for inevitable, indeed!

[pinyo]

Good enough to eat challenge! 

I didn’t know I could fall in love with a sheet mask! these are one of my favorites and it smells good!! Win!!! I really need to restock. I keep checking my stores hoping that I’ll find more or other flavors to try! 

it smells so good. It gave me flashbacks of this Japanese gum I ate as a kid. It’s making my mouth water. 

[lmaster]

@pinyo this is a goodie for sure!!! Reminds me of grape laffy taffy 😆

[heartsmyface]

@pinyo   Oh yum!  I can’t resist a grape scented mask!   

[ather]

@pinyo  Ooooo I didn’t know it came as a grape one!!! 

[itsfi]

@pinyo, isn't it great when you find a mask you love?!! And then to top it off that it has a bit of nostalgia for you! That's just perfect!!!

Whenever I see these masks, it makes me want a boba drink. 😁

[eshoe]

@pinyo oh yes, this line is definitely good enough to eat😋 I haven’t tried the grape yet, but the mango and strawberry? Yum!!!

[Shosh85]

@pinyo  I have several of these that I haven't tried yet, but I've heard they're great,  especially the scents! So happy this was enjoyable for you! 🍇

[Samtian]

Ooh I'm on theme for once! The Sephora x Moschino Honey bear mask. This was cute, I definitely smelled a little bit of heaven...I mean honey. This ended up being an ok mask. Nothing good nothing bad. I sent a funnier pic to my brother named Freddy Fazbear lol. If you played that game.

[eshoe]

This mask has monster ears @Samtian 😂 man, so sorry you weren’t able to get the full scent of this one. I hope your body is recovering otherwise.

[Samtian]

@eshoe Thank you! So far, just mostly have to figure out where my chest pain is coming from. 

[eshoe]

@Samtian I wonder if it affected your electrolytes. My potassium was low for quite awhile and it gave me awful chest pains. It’s probably not the same thing, just something I thought about.

[Samtian]

@eshoe My blood work came back ok. Thank you though!
