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’–

I just grabbed the Briogio S&C and I would have LOVED to have had a honey bear option!  I've got to think that after the success of the Honey Bear mask they'd have someone working on a whole line @itsfi ???

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

Right @missjeanie?!!! I just think a honey shampoo and conditioner would be an excellent choice for the brand; the mask has already performed well. We cannot be the only ones who consider a honey shampoo and conditioner to be a winning next product!! I guess we will just have to wait patiently, but it's nice to know I'm not the only one who feels that the honey bear hair mask should have siblings added to the family in the form of shampoo and conditioner. ๐Ÿ˜‰

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

@itsfi @Shosh85 You guys I just broke into my last jar of the Amika yesterday!  I miss TJ Maxx!!!! lol  I was just trying to contemplate today if I should be looking at picking up another hair mask before next sale.  I assume I won't get to a TJ's this year, but a Winners will likely be possible this summer!  Do you guys like the regular Briogio?  I wasn't huge on the Fructis ones I tried, but maybe I'll need to look into testing some more.  

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

@missjeanie, at first I read your post as "I just broke...my last jar of the Amika" and not "broke into" and there was a deep intake of breath and an "oh nooo!" Then I reread it and was quite relieved...well, more relieved than when I thought your last jar fell apart. 

 

I'm a big fan of the original Briogeo. From that brand, my favorite is the LE honey bear one (please, oh please, come back for the holidays like last year . . . and maybe in the summer too, if I can be so greedy to ask?! ๐Ÿ˜‰) But for that honey version, my next fave from Briogeo would be their original hair mask. I'm curious about the new Olaplex one. I have a promo DS size that I've yet to open - I'm being good and going to first finish up this full size hair maksk that is close to being done.

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

@itsfi @Shosh85 I agree, I quite liked the Honey version and would have picked that up without even second guessing.  I do go through a lot of hair mask (my hair goes down to my hips and has quite dry ends), so the low volume on the Olaplex one had me wondering if there would be enough to make it worth it. 

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

@itsfi  I almost always have drink it up in stock!! The sheet mask looks amazing for the dry months!!

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

@ather, I used the Drink It Up mask as my moisturizer today. ๐Ÿ˜ Held up well through mask wearing too. Well, so far at least. Yes, this sheet mask was very nourishing. 

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

@itsfi Haha definitely not. The packaging on the one looks like a butt from the thumbnail. 

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

Hahaha @Samtian! ๐Ÿ˜† That's funny. Fret not mods, I am not posting in violation of the rules. lol. 

 

Whenever I use an avocado mask, what runs through my mind is which maskers here might really love it and, of course, I think "oh. this will not be a mask samtian likes." 

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

@itsfi That makes me happy! Whenever I see yuckycado stuff while shopping I think of you guys lol.

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

My mask this week the Azure Rose & Collagen face mask. This was ok, but left my skin tacky even the next day, I don't like that feeling.

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

@Samtian yeah that's too long for tackiness to remain, sorry to hear that

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

@Samtian  Dang, that's some long lasting tack. Sorry to hear this didn't work out so well for you! 

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

Wow, that is some serious tack, @Samtian! I can definitely understand not being in a hurry to use that particular mask again. 

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

@Samtian  Darn that it left your skin tacky! 

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

@Samtian  Yikes, that's some long-term tack. 

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

@PrettyPaint I was surprised haha. 

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

@Samtian, I'm so sorry that your skin and your mom's stayed tacky overnight. I completely understand not liking that feeling!! I'm wondering if it is the niacinamide in the mask. It's the third ingredient listed so that suggests there would be a higher volume of it in the mask. Looking through the inci list, that seems to be the ingredient that is more likely to be tacky and take longer to be absorbed. Interesting. 

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

@itsfi I'll have to keep an eye out for that, thank you!

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

Your skin was tacky the next day, @Samtian? Did you moisturize afterwards? Yikes, no thank you! 

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

@eshoe Yes I did. My mom's was tacky too and she didn't.
