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
I hope your skin calms down quickly, @sister13. I love the Caudalie Detox- so good for helping clear out pores.
@sister13 oh no!! Hopefully you will heal soon!!
@sister13, I hope your skin is on the mend. It's so tempting to want to use all our new treats at once, isn't it? I think having sensitive skin and after many hard lessons with poor reactions to using a bunch of new skincare at once, I've finally gotten to the place where my knee jerk reaction isn't to put everything new on my face at once. ๐
@sister13 Been there and likely will be again... it's so hard when newness comes in!! Glad you're doing some pampering now!
Yes, and when multiple products ran out at a similar time! My skin isnโt overly sensitive but I really do have to start only one new product at a time. @missjeanie
@sister13 So many products, only one face! I've definitely done this a few times. It's so easy to get excited about all the newness!
Exactly!! I do this like once every couple years. @Shosh85
Exactly!! I do this like once every couple years. @Shosh85
@sister13 That detox mask looks interesting! Would you recommend it? Also, hope your skin feels more balanced soon!!
This one is a staple I will repurchase once finished. Itโs a clay mask, a thin-ish pink clay, and it dries and you see it suck the oil out of pores. Which, typing it out, doesnโt sound all
that great for dryer skin (which I have) but somehow it just leaves my skin looking and feeling great every time! @txcatx
@sister13 I am still learning! There is always room to grow! I hope your skin forgives you soon.
Agreed! Ugh, I do this every couple years to re-learn my lesson! @Mellmars1185
Not going with any themes here, but I saw someone post Glow Recipe Avocado Fine Line Eye Cream with Retinol 0.5 oz/ 15 mL and it helped me remember that I had a forgotten, unopened jar of this somewhere! I use Trentinoin a few nights a week, so I don't usually reach for retinol products, but I decided to try this retinol mask on an off night. I really like the creamy, yet light texture, and it was hydrating. I'll definitely keep using this maybe a couple nights a week.
โ
@txcatxwhat a treat to have an unopened jar of this at home! Iโve been working my way through a DS and it (like many others here) will end up a purchase. Your photo is very soothing, too๐ต๐ชด
The texture sounds lovely for this one, @txcatx.
@txcatx I love this one!! The texture is perfect
@txcatx, this is a loved mask by many. That's great that it's one that will be a regular part of your skincare / mask rotation.
@txcatx I use tretinoin every other night as well, and have used a sample of this on off nights as well. I've convinced myself that it's conditioning my skin to go to nightly tretinoin lol. All totally unscientific! Glad to see this one getting use for you now!
@missjeanie Some weeks, my sensitive skin can only handle trentinoin twice, and I feel like maybe this eye mask will give me extra anti-aging benefits on off nights! I can't imagine ever using trentinoin daily!
@txcatx I was up to daily use with the lower percentage but now that I'm up to the higher one I need to alternate. I'm glad you have the same rational as me with the off days!
I think I have a deluxe sample of this one somewhere! Sounds nice. @txcatx
