6ADE6F2B-300D-4DE5-8A89-DEBA0CC45743.gif

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?

Thank you @Aaliaa for starting this thread, and giving us a place to share our love for masks๐Ÿ’—

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

@eshoe, I may have fallen asleep ๐Ÿ˜ด  before I could check. Oops. Sorry. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ It felt like the Steambase one took longer to warm up though. 

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

@itsfi  I'm not a big fan of these interactive masks either, but I do enjoy these! The honey one is definitely my favorite ๐Ÿฏ

I have one of those Steambase eye masks I've been waiting to try, so the comparison to the Megrhythm ones is helpful!

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

Oh yes, the honey one is really nice, I agree @Shosh85! ๐Ÿฏ Iโ€™d love to hear your thoughts on the Steambase Steam Mask. I have another and will give it a go just to make sure this one wasnโ€™t a fluke. 

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

@itsfi you're reminding me to pull out a steam eye mask for my bedside table, and my eyes will thank you tonight!  I'm always so torn on these oozoo masks.  I kinda like that the interaction is low and it's all done in the pouch (no need to bowls and mixing spoons etc) but I never seem to get all of the oil out of the blister pack, and I wonder if I've massaged it long enough or well enough to have it permeate the entire mask.  This sure is a nice one though, solid theming! 

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

Yes @missjeanie!!! I keep a handful of these steam eye masks on my nightstand, along with the various lip balms / masks and sleeping masks, and now oils. Ha! The blister packs are what get me every time. There's always a few interactive masks that go awry because I can't pop open the packet to release the serum or oil  and the packet looks mangled by the time I finish trying. Or, I have had it happen on a couple of occasions that poof, I popped the packet, but not into the space with the mask . . . and now the serum is running down the counter...table ... my arm. Hahaha!

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

mmmmmhmmmm @itsfi I was nodding along while reading.  lol.  We should do a thread of 'whats on your nightstand?' I looked at mine the other day and had the same thing, sleeping masks, lip balms, lip masks, a few sprays.  Oil to come! 

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

@missjeanie, you should do it!! Tag me!

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

I've not used that origins honey charcoal mask @itsfi I do have it in my loves list to try after I get through some already opened products ๐Ÿ˜Š

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

@lmaster, I completely get that! I like the Origins mask because the charcoal does a nice job of clearing out the junk in my skin but it doesn't dry it out, thanks to the honey. Super helpful when my skin is combo, which with the stay at home last year, my skin felt like it was some form of combo or another on any given day. lol. If you do get around to using it, would love to know your thoughts. Or if there's a similar type mask you like, would love to know that too. 

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

Good to know!! @itsfi Im not sure if I've ever used anything like this, I'll have to check out the ingredients and think about that ๐Ÿ˜†

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

The mask sounds great @itsfi ! Interactive ones can define hit or miss for distribution of serum but this sounds like it was a winner 

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

Have you tried this one or any of the interactive ones from The Oozoo before @Kim888?

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

@itsfi maybe? Nothing sticks out it my mind but I think of the Holika Holika tea ones and sometimes itโ€™s hard to get an even distribution on those without really massaging them 

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

Hahaha! ๐Ÿ˜† I completely understand โ€œmaybe?โ€ @Kim888. Sometimes certain sheet masks all sort of blur together. 

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

O is for +OneC Hydrogel Face Mask

O - One C.jpg

 

Spoiler

+OneC Hydrogel Face Mask is a thin 2-piece hydrogel that adheres very well. I can experience some slipping and sliding with hydrogel but that was not the case here. Fit, too, was really good all around. I only had to make the slightest of adjustments to the inner corner of the eye openings. The mask claims to rejuvenate and nourish skin and that it does. My skin has been extremely dry and irritated of late and this mask both soothed it and gave it the TLC that it needed. I would happily repurchase this but for the fact that it contains an ingredient that I'm looking to avoid and that I hadn't realized was there until I did a translation of the inci list after using the mask. @lmaster, you will not want to try this mask. 

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

@itsfi๐Ÿ˜ณ 

On a lighter note, your notebook is beautiful!

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

Thank you, @eshoe๐Ÿ˜€

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

@itsfi  Well, now I'm super curious to know what ingredient that is ๐Ÿค”  I was impatient and looked it up (I also somehow missed the spoiler below)...... I don't like that ingredient either ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ข

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

Yeah. It was disappointing @Shosh85! ๐Ÿ˜ž if only it didnโ€™t have that ingredient! 

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

Ohhhh yikes!! Thanks for the heads up!! @itsfi 

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

Yeah. I'll learn the hard way so you don't have to @lmaster! It was all going so well until I researched the ingredients. Ack! ๐Ÿ˜ซ This was a gift from a friend, so I don't feel so bad about having it. This one could certainly do for a slight reformulation.
