💕😌 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💗

@PrettyPaint I think they're basically the same thing.  But I'm not opposed to doing a side by side comparison sometime!  I've been ordering my groceries for almost a year now and at first I was having a few items here and there cancelled, but I think the grocery store I use has had their site upgraded a bit.  More of the stock items have been added in and it's much better at telling me if something is low stock or if they need to kick something out of my cart.  Thankfully my ice cream hasn't been booted yet lol!!!  I was just saying that it feels so weird not going into the grocers anymore.  I used to go three times a week and now I'm at once every two weeks online.   mmmmmm might need to get me some ice cream again now lol

[PrettyPaint]

@missjeanie  Oh, I'm glad the grocery ordering has been going better. I'm really not sure how the system works. The one we use is mainly through the store (not instacart), so they basically just make random substitutions without approval if you permit it. For instance, on the most recent order, they actually substituted chicken breast with turkey breast haha. That seemed a little weird.

[itsfi]

@missjeanie, it could just be me (doubt it!) but I feel like a side-by-side comparison of ice cream 🍨🍦 is very much warranted. Necessary even. 😉 If not for yourself, do it for science. 🧪🧫🧬🔬 @PrettyPaint 

[PrettyPaint]

@missjeanie  @itsfi  Science for the win! Yes, please do a comparison...haha 🙂

[missjeanie]

@itsfi  The sacrifices I'm willing to make....

[itsfi]

Love the attitude @missjeanie! 💖 It's for the greater good. Take one for the team!!! 😄

[itsfi]

Haha! @missjeanie, I really didn't think the ice cream should feel left out of the review. 😂 Yes! to including ice cream to the shopping list. 🛒 Great way to go into the weekend! Mmmm...heavenly hash ice cream. I have not had that in ages!

[Samtian]

@itsfi Oh man that's messed up haha. That mask looks great!! You made the ice cream? It looks and sounds delicious!!! 

[itsfi]

@Samtian, oh no. I didn’t make the ice cream. My talents really lie in ordering and eating ice cream. 🍨 

[Samtian]

@itsfi That is still a fine talent to have!

[itsfi]

Thank you @Samtian. It’s certainly one I will keep working on. 😆 Practice makes perfect, right?!!! Hahaha!

[Samtian]

@itsfi Most definitely!

[lmaster]

🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 why..... @itsfi  why must you tease me so???? 

[itsfi]

Ohhh @lmaster, I'm getting to a point where finding out a sheet mask has been discontinued is no longer a surprise. Sigh. ☹️ I will just console myself with more ice cream. 🍨 lol Oh my goodness, if I could send you some of this ice cream, I would!! 😍 When I went inside the ice creamery to see if they had any of the chocolate in stock, they told me they had just made and packaged up a batch. Yesssss!!!!!! 😋

[lmaster]

😋😋😋😋 @itsfi my favorite is chocolate with chopped walnuts

[itsfi]

Ohhh, that sounds delicious @lmaster! 😋

[keana1]

I’m sorry that this sheet mask is discontinued @itsfi ! That ice cream sounds tempting, I could eat ice cream all day! The fanciest brand in grocery stores is Haagen-Dazs ! We use to have Baskin-Robbins but not anymore ( so sad... ). I’m doing the groceries tomorrow, guess what I’ll be buying... ICE CREAM ! Chocolate or Cookies & Cream .... 😋

[itsfi]

“Chocolate or Cookies & Cream”? Do you have to get just one @keana1?!! 😆 

[keana1]

I couldn’t find any Cookies&Cream last week @itsfi , so I need another option! If they have both, I won’t have to choose! Hehe 😉! The first time I ate HD Cookies & Cream was in 1989, it became available up here in 2019 ! I waited 30 long years ! 🤦🏻‍♀️

[itsfi]

Well then, if that’s the case, you should pick up 2 pints of HD Cookies & Cream if you can find it. 

I first tried HD ice cream in Hawaii. Mango sorbet. Yummmy! 😋 Then I had their strawberry - soooo good!! at home. In honor of my first taste of HD on the islands, I do find my way to a HD whenever I’m in Hawaii. It’s a tradition now. 😉 

[Kim888]

Omg this packaging is amazing @itsfi ! Glad it worked well for you but sad to hear it’s discontinued
