| 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💗
Some recent masking, with a couple that I have been longing to try for awhile now!

This was from last week, after hearing how much @Shosh85 enjoyed this brand, I picked this up and was not disappointed. First, I finished up a little DS of the #Kiehl's Since 1851 Turmeric & Cranberry Seed Energizing Radiance Mask 3.4 oz/ 100 mL. I enjoyed this exfoliating detox mask, and would repurchase at some point if I ever ran low on that category of masks. Which doesn’t seem likely for the next couple of years. I used REN Clean Skincare Evercalm™ Ultra Comforting Rescue Mask 1.7 oz/ 50 mL on my cheeks, something I have learned to do whenever using a harsher mask on my T-Zone.
When I opened the Vitamasque Vegan Collagen Lychee Mask, I had one thought: I want all of my skincare to smell this good. It was very fruity, yummy, and sweet. It reminded me of passionfruit, but sweeter - ridiculously sweet! The sheet itself was a little oversize on the bottom, flapping away from my chin. The rest felt like Spanx for my face 😄 After removing 25 minutes later, my skin felt only minimally tacky. I will be trying out others, I hope they are scented as wonderfully as this one!
Ingredients:
I finished with PAT McGRATH LABS Lip Fetish Balm Tin and the Glow Recipe Watermelon + AHA Glow Sleeping Mask 2.7 oz/ 80 mL (thank you, @SportyGirly125!).

Last night I soothed my skin with the Nuori Supreme Moisture Mask. This has been for the most part a nice hydrating mask, although at times it has caused a bit of redness. My skin just seems to be sensitive at times, but thankfully last night, it was not.
The Bioderma Atoderm Lip Stick is extremely soothing and has such a pleasantly soft scent, which I never would have discovered unless @missjeanie sent it my way (thank you so much! <3). The Jeju:en Lip Hyaluron Hydrogel Lip Masks are always a kick, and I wish I remembered to use them more often. I applied one under my sheet mask, and left it on for the remainder of my masking. I couldn’t say for certain if this really does much, but it feels lovely.
I anticipated the Glamfox Ice Aloe Vera Mask to mimic the Missha Ice Cooling mask, but this was not the case. It had a fresh, clean scent, and the medium-weight sheet fit my face decently. For the weight, I was surprised that it remained adhered so well. I left it on around 20-25 minutes, and upon removing, I felt a slight cooling to my skin. It left a slight tackiness, nothing too noticeable. It was a decent filler mask, but not one I would seek out again. On the positive side - no irritation or redness!
