💕😌 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💗

@itsfi  Sounds like your last minute run into target was a winner! Sounds like your reindeer mask sounded great!!

[itsfi]

@ather, going intoTarget a few days before Christmas is not something I usually like to do, but I got the reindeer mask out of it - and I managed to remember what I went into the store for as well, so a win-win! 😀 The reindeer mask surprised me.

@itsfi Love all the Z’s! I agree with you on the animated Creme Shop masks being mostly filler masks. I haven’t tried the Arctic Fox one yet, but the Cica Mend Tiger and the Clarifying Unicorn one have definitely been my most favorite as well!

Oh my gosh, I forgot about the “bearded” Zebra mask! Haha! That mask cracks me up!

I think it looks waay better on you though 😂👇🏻

Omg, i finally had a chance to click in to read this thread. I thought this was someone’s husband from the thumbnail. Hilarious! 🤣🤣🤣

[Shosh85]

@sister13  Haha! Too funny! I probably would've thought the same thing!  It makes me laugh every time I see it! 😂🦓

[sister13]

I’m SO glad I didn’t just scroll past! 🤣🤣🤣 @Shosh85 

[makeitup305]

@Shosh85 omg that's kind of terrifying lol 

[Shosh85]

@makeitup305  It really is. Haha! It’ll definitely haunt your dreams 😂

[itsfi]

Lol @Shosh85! I feel like with the zebra 🦓 mask, it’s really so easy to focus on the beady eyes that you forget about the bearded part! It’s definitely one of those masks that you have to see it fully to umm… appreciate it. 🤣

Ohhh no my friend, I’m calling this a tie all the way! Equally zebra-tastic! 🦓 

[lmaster]

@itsfi oh my gosh!!! How adorable are you!!?? These are all so so cute

[itsfi]

Ahhhh shucks; thank you @lmaster! 😚 Even though I know these will probably end up as filler masks, the cuteness factor of this mask series gets me every time!! 😍

 A couple of favorites.....

Spoiler

Peripera Juice Time Grape Sheet Mask

Material:

It didn't specify what material it was, but it looked and felt a lot like tencel to me.

Serum:

Clear, almost like a thin jelly. Not much extra in the pouch

Scent:

It smelled like grape soda - sooo good!

Fit:

A tiny bit too wide at the temples and a little too long at the chin

Wear Time:

35 minutes

Tack:

None

Results:

Soft and smooth skin that was noticeably brighter and comfortably hydrated

Repurchase?

This brand won't be making masks anymore, but there are some websites that are still selling them ....... and I will definitely will continue to repurchase this one as long as I can! I really love everything about this mask!

A. by BOM Ultra Royal Glow Queen Mask

Material:

Thin tencel

Serum:

Slimy, honey-colored serum that had a soft and silky feel

Scent:

I loved how this one smelled - sort of like sweet honey

Fit:

Just a little too long at the chin and a bit too wide at the temples

Wear Time:

40 minutes

Tack:

Super tacky, stuck around for about 15 minutes

Results:

My face looked brighter, more awake, had a nice glow and felt soft and smooth. The hydration from this was also excellent and lasted for quite a while.

Repurchase?

This was actually my third time trying out this mask, and I’ve loved it every time! I'll definitely continue to repurchase!

@Shosh85  

Another honey mask to put on my list! Sounds awesome.

[Shosh85]

@elleb810  It's definitely on the top of my list of favorites! 

[elleb810]

@Shosh85

then I'm moving it to the top of mine. 🙂

[sister13]

Nice masks! @Shosh85 

[Shosh85]

Thanks @sister13! They're definitely winners in my book! 😃

[Samtian]

@Shosh85 Bummer about the Juice mask but that honey one sounds lovely!

[Shosh85]

@Samtian  It is definitely a bummer! The Juice and Smoothie lines from this brand were my all-time favorite masks!

The honey mask is fantastic! It'll be the mask I repurchase once I've made a dent in my stash! 🐝

[ather]

@Shosh85  Great masking sesh!! Too bad the juice one isn’t being made anymore 

[Shosh85]

@ather  Yeah, super sad about it. They made some of my most favorite masks 😢
