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
@Shosh85, I've tried both the rose and the honey mask and like them both, but reach for them on different occasions. The rose mask has a thinner consistency than the honey mask, which has much richer texture to it. The rose mask is one I can keep in a rotation without having to think about it much. The honey mask, on the other had, I tend to reach for when I'm looking for more of a really deep conditioning hair mask, and I have more time to work with it.
If you're debating over the two, would you say your individual hair strands are on the thin side? Or normal? Thick / coarse? My individual hair strands are on the thin side but I have a lot, so either of these hair masks are fine with me, though with the honey one, I do need to work it in my hair a little more because of the consistency, and I go through an extra "rinse" cycle when washing it out because the consistency is heavier than the rose one.
Do you have an Ulta or Sally Beauty store near you? If you do, you may want to call to see if they carry the honey mask in the packet size (1.75 oz) - that might be a good way for you to see if the consistency is too heavy for your hair. If it works out for you, then your hair will like either the rose or the honey one. If you find the honey mask to be too thick, then the rose is the way to go. The rose one does smell like roses; it's not a bad smell but I know that floral scents are more a product-by-product thing for you.
I don't know if I have another packet of the honey mask at home, but I'll take a look tonight or over the weekend. If I do, I'll take a pic of the consistency of both for you.
ETA: Shosh, the honey mask has been reformulated. The new formulation does not contain silicones. The honey mask that I tried is the original version (with silicones). I've heard that many prefer the original version.
@itsfi I saw both of these in TJ Maxx but didn't pick them up because they didn't have a seal and I just don't trust that, but I did smell them and liked them both. My hair is super thin and fine, and normally I go for the more thicker masks, but I do think I read somewhere the Honey one was reformulated and not quite as good as the original. I was leaning more towards the Rose one anyway, but I do see online that they have packets of the Honey one and it's online only... so I'm thinking I'll buy a FS Rose and a packet of the Honey. ๐ Thanks Fi, you were very helpful! ๐
@Shosh85, good call on passing on the masks at TJ Maxx. No need to risk it. Will be interested to know which of the tgin hair masks you like more. ๐นvs ๐ฏ
@Shosh85 I've not tried the honey, the rose version is absolutely amazing!!
@lmaster I thought I remember you saying you loved it! This is the one I was leaning more towards! Thanks! ๐
Awwwww so cute!! I agree, they would make great gifts!! @itsfi
@lmaster, a filler mask with a fun factor to it isn't a bad thing at all. ๐ I forgot to include a photo of the masks themselves when I originally put up the post, but have added it. โฌ๏ธ There's definitely a cuteness quotient to these sheet masks. ๐
@itsfi Zombie mask sounds awesome!
@Samtian, the Zombie mask is super cute! ๐ I edited my original post to include pics of both sheet masks. โฌ๏ธ The mask really does match the illustration on the front of the packet.
A is for apple ๐ This one was gifted to me from the lovely @Samtian! ๐
Remiina Moisturizing Apple O2 Soda Mask
Material:
Thin and meshy cotton
Serum:
Clear and watery
Scent:
Not really much of a scent on this one - maybe just a typical sheet mask kind of smell
Fit:
A little too long at the chin, a smidge too long at the forehead, and the mouth hole didn't line up right and hung too low. Despite the folding and scrunching up I had to do, it was pretty comfortable and adhered well.
Wear Time:
Half hour
Tack:
None
Results:
My skin felt moisturized, a little bouncy, soft & smooth and had a nice glow.
Repurchase?
I really liked the results from this one, so I probably would!
@Shosh85 Glad this one worked out for you!
Thank you, @ather! I definitely results from this one! ๐
This would be more awesome if it smelled like apples ๐ @Shosh85 sounds really good
@lmaster Haha! I agree! The results were really great though, and that's what is most important! ๐
@Shosh85 Ooh I can't wait to try it!
I really loved the results! Thanks again @Samtian! ๐
The results from this mask sound great @Shosh85! ๐ And the packaging looks so refreshing. Signature mask scent is better than (and much preferred over) a really bad one, but I was hoping you'd say it had an apple or apple soda scent. ๐
@itsfi Yeah, an apple scent would've been really nice, but no scent or a signature sheet mask is not so bad either... definitely better than floral/perfumy ๐
Z for zippy, zany, and zero waste?
@itsfi I can see where the issue would be. The material looks like it will more soak up the serum but doesnโt really deposit it on the skin. Too bad. I like that itโs more eco friendly
