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 ๐ฎ
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 masks๐
Awwww how cute!! Sounds like you definitely found a pre mask product!! Great idea โบ๏ธ @eshoe
Yep I am loving the multi-functionality of it, @lmaster! Extra goodness in less steps๐
@eshoe, that's a cute panda mask. ๐ผ It'll feel good when you are all done with the SF mask; that one felt like a never ending tube. It smelled wonderful and I liked it so I didn't have any complaints. By the way, is that the Summer Fridays R + R Mask 2.25 oz/ 64 g? The tag product looks like their pumpkin-based exfoliating mask.
Interesting that you found the R+R to be a little harsh; I've read other reviews that have mentioned similar experiences. With your next use of the mask, you might want to try adding a little bit of cleansing oil to the pads of your fingertips as you massage and rinse off the R+R mask. I would do that to help tone down the filmy/waxy feel that would sometimes remain from the jelly part of that mask.
Oops, good catch, @itsfi! I did tag the incorrect one, thank you. The oil cleansing cloth sounds like a solution I wish I would have known about oh, maybe a year and a half ago ๐ I will remember to put that to use for the remaining product.
@eshoe Oh, what a great looking panda mask! ๐ผ The results sound great and the Violette_Fr Boum-Boum Milk sounds like it was a wonderful addition! ๐
@Shosh85 it is always a relief to open a mask and find a fruity scent; even more so when the packaging has no clue as to what it will be like ๐
The Boum-Boum has found just the right place in my routine, I am happy to say. I might even try diluting it a bit for summer, or use it 1-2x a week as it is heavier than just my Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Ultra-Fine Mist 2.53 oz/ 75 mL and Pixi Milky Toner. It will be interesting to see how it performs during the winter!
One more pretty packaging
โthe sheet had gold flecks throughout
That does have some pretty packaging, @lmaster. It sounds like the mask worked out nicely as well.
@quspork I was extremely impressed with this one,, more will be needed ๐
@lmaster, this one looks and sounds nice. Definitely a fitting choice for the pretty packaging theme. A fresh scent is always good but especially in spring/summer.
I do like the brand in general @itsfi but this one knocked it out of the park!!
@lmaster Oh, this one looks and sounds so great! I love that has gold flecks! ๐คฉ
@Shosh85 this one has to be my favorite from the brand! Hands down!
@lmaster what a luxe touch, the little gold flecks are so pretty! Makes me want to search out this brand again!
@eshoe this one is awesome!! By far my favorite yet from the brand
Closing out last week's letter theme with an X for x-factor in the fight against maskne: propolis
@itsfi Love all the products you used here! That BHA 9 is the best!
I'm happy to hear the sheet mask worked out well for you! I really loved the serum in it. ๐
@Shosh85, it's surprising how that BHA9 serum can be so effective without drying out my skin. ๐ Loved propolis before and my love for it just grew by leaps and bounds during the pandemic. As much as I love it, I'm very much hoping that I'll need to incorporate it into my routine with a lot less frequency now. ๐ค
@itsfi I wonder if there has been a spike in acne dot sales over the past year. It certainly seems like they have been in more frequent rotation around here, unfortunately!
@eshoe, I would not be surprised at all if there was a huge uptick in 2020 and this first half of the year in acne dot purchases and demand. ๐ I know for myself, I was going through them at an alarming rate at one point. Ugh.
A couple more masks with cute packaging; this time with a honey bear theme.
