💕😌 2024 Masking Challenge 😌💖

[eshoe]

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 💮

Spoiler

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💗

@haleyvvvv When masks are nice, but the chin flap does seem to be a persistent problem! 

[haleyvvvv]

Agreed, @eshoe!! I just used another one and it was the same issue. But other than that it was pretty good fit!!

[itsfi]

@haleyvvvv, the Simply When sheet masks are nice. This one does sound like it would make for a fabulous neck serum. I find myself often wishing that brands would bottle the essence / serum from a mask as a standalone product. 

[haleyvvvv]

@itsfi I'm really impressed with the sheets themselves!! I have 4 more made on the same type so I'm excited to see how those work!! 

Yes!! There's quite a few mask essences that I would just buy. 

[Kim888]

I’ve never seen this version before @haleyvvvv ! 

i agree though, the firming masks are kind of hard to judge because what could happen in one use! It sounds like it was nicely plumping though !

[haleyvvvv]

@Kim888 I got it as part of one of their sample packs!! I just checked and it's still a mask they make. 

[Shosh85]

@haleyvvvv  When makes some great masks! It's been a while since I tried this one, but I remember liking as well! 😃

[haleyvvvv]

I have a few different When masks with later expiration dates in my stash that I'm excited to try, @Shosh85!! 

[lmaster]

@haleyvvvv the ingredients sound really good!

[haleyvvvv]

Yeah, I just wish some of them were higher up in the ingredient list, @lmaster.

J for a jelly mask...

SNP's Fresh Vita Water Jelly. This one is very jelly-like in consistency (no surprise), and there's a ton of serum. It's a cellulose sheet that adheres very well. It's quite hydrating, though it's a bit sticky/messy. As a result, it's one I'd probably avoid if I had to apply makeup afterwards because it didn't fully sink in and left a bit too much film on my skin than I would prefer. It's a good stay at home/weekend mask, though. 

[eshores]

@PrettyPaint - the drawing looks refreshing; it's too bad about all that film that it leaves.

[eshoe]

Film seems to be the issue of the day, as I am catching up, @PrettyPaint. Bummer about this one. You sure have a positive attitude; that can sure come in handy when masking!   

[missy94612]

@PrettyPaint 

Sticky, messy and too much film definitely sounds like it's better to use this when you don't have anywhere to go.

[PrettyPaint]

@missy94612  Oh for sure! I don't think it would be possible to apply foundation over this one. 

[Shosh85]

@PrettyPaint  The one I tried from this line was pretty decent as well! The picture on ir really makes me crave a smoothie 😋🫐🍌🍯

[PrettyPaint]

@Shosh85  Oooh a smoothie sounds so good. 

[lmaster]

@PrettyPaint love this mask!! 

[PrettyPaint]

@lmaster  Oh yay, glad you love it! Jelly masks are so nice for the summer. 

[itsfi]

@PrettyPaint, I love a good jelly sheet mask, although they can be sticky. This one looks like it has some really good skincare ingredients. 😍

[PrettyPaint]

@itsfi Yup, it was definitely pretty sticky. I think I have some more in my stash - I may see what it's like if I keep it on for a long time. Perhaps I could get my skin to absorb a bit more of the serum.
