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
@PrettyPaint, it would be great if those LuLuLun masks came in a pack, but that may be more wishful thinking. I read that these can be used up to 2-3 times per week so it doesn't sound like they're intended to be used every day but I have to say that this time of year, the creamy, oil based serum in this mask could be really nourishing as an every day mask for my skin.
@itsfi I love that your mask line-up is in coordination with the Jackson 5 song! That is one of those songs that just gets stuck your head ๐
All three of the sheet masks sound wonderful! I definitely know how it feels to fall in love something that's expensive! Lately, everything I love is either super expensive or discontinued ๐
I love that the brightening from Cocochi mask lasted so long. That's pretty rare for a sheet mask!
That Origins mask is one of my favorites! It smells and feels so good! Have you tried the Apricot one? That's a nice one too ๐
@Shosh85, it's such a catchy tune which made using these masks even more fun.
I was really surprised by how long the results from the Cocochi mask lasted - not complaining at all, just surprised. Oh, tell me about it. It's interesting how the masks we go for or the trends in our mask purchasing change over time, isn't it? I have found over the last couple of years that more and more of the masks I pick up have been discontinued with much more frequency than in the past. I'm not sure why that is the case, but there have been quite a few really good or great masks that I've used that are no longer in production - and it's not even that I purchased them that long ago.
Yes, I have tried the apricot version of the Origins mask - it smells so good. That version and this one could be part of a samples-turned-purchase theme for me. There are a small few Origins masks I would repurchase and those two are included in that group. Has the apricot version been discontinued?
Well crap @itsfi! It does look like it might be discontinued! ๐ฉ All the sites I see it on say it's "unavailable" โน๏ธ
Grrrrr ๐ @Shosh85, I see it available through eBay and Mercari, as well as Harrods which would make it a mighty expensive mask after factoring in shipping fees.
One more mask for the Hydrating Heroes theme..... also, E for Electrolyte ๐
Thanks to @itsfi for introducing me to the Vitamasques brand!
Vitamasques Electrolyte Watermelon Hydrate Sheet Mask
Material:
Thin cotton
Serum:
Watery, but not drippy. There wasn't any extra in the pouch, but the mask was fully saturated.
Scent:
Very light watermelon scent
Fit:
It fit great and was only a little too long at the chin. Super comfortable to wear
Wear Time:
40 minutes
Tack:
Light tack that stuck around for about 15 minutes
Results:
My face looked a bit brighter and felt soft, hydrated and little bouncy
Repurchase?
There's nothing I can really complain about - this is one I'd definitely repurchase!
I could never turn down a good watermelon sheet mask. Where did you find this one?
@missy94612 Right? Me neither ๐
I got this one at Target, but I've also seen them at Walmart and if you're in the US you can get them online direct and they only have a $15 minimum for free shipping
I was in when you said it had a watermelony scent. The packaging makes me ready for spring.
@nuinui933 A good watermelon scent is definitely a weakness for me! ๐๐
@Shosh85 this mask is calling my name ๐
@lmaster I know what you mean - it definitely called mine ๐
@Shosh85 I was willing to add this mask to a list based solely on the packaging.... but after your review... well well.... what a wonderful watermelon masking session!
@missjeanie Yulp, I really enjoyed this one! I've only tried a few masks from this brand, but so far I've liked them all! Can't wait to try the others in my stash! ๐๐
@Shosh85 I don't know what it is about watermelon in sheet masks but I feel like it just works for me. One of my all time favorite masks (ever) is the SEPHORA COLLECTION After-Sun Mask - Watermelon Watermelon
@QueenMarceline Love a good watermelon mask! If it's scented like watermelon it's even better! ๐๐ That Sephora mask is probably the only mask from the brand I'd repurchase
@Shosh85 Honestly, it's hands down the best SC mask they'd ever offered. I liked some of the SC as filler masks but I find myself purchasing them less and less nowadays. However, that watermelon one... is stunning after getting a bit burnt out in the sun.
Sounds like a good one, @Shosh85!
@quspork Yup, definitely a winner! ๐
@Shosh85 Ooh pretty packaging and it sounds lovely!
@Samtian Vitamasques does a great job with their packaging - it definitely makes them harder to resist! ๐
