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
@itsfi it's so hot here, that I would love to drink that cold milkshake asap ๐คค๐ง sipping my hot tea now (yes, I drink hot teas even in spring/summer....because otherwise, I can't digest them well) ๐
@Skunk12puzzola, tea and sleeping masks, and milkshakes too ๐ can be enjoyed year-round.
I agree @itsfi I would love to add lip balms. Self care squad ๐
Hello! Been MIA from the thread for a bit, trying to get back into it.
I used the Dr. Jart+ Dermaclearโข Micro Milk Peel 5.07 oz/ 150 mL for an active, followed by The Face Shop Red Ginseng sheet mask to be in the right letter sequence for the month.
I love the Micro Milk Peel for a quick pick me up. The cotton pads have a scratchy side and a soft side.
The red Ginseng was cooling and had an earthy but pleasant, light scent. I got a bunch of these at The Face Shop in Hawaii a couple years ago, should probably use them up but they have all been fine so far.
Happy Monday!
@sister13 Great mask paring!
This sounds and looks interesting!! @sister13 is it gentle? Drying at all?
@sister13, the Dr. Jart Micro Milk peel is such a nice, gentle-but-effective and quick at-home peel. ๐
For both Peels and โT,โ a handful of Tula to hopefully soften my skin:
I was not surprised when I woke up to rather tight cheeks, and added a dollop of a heavier cream to my face to tide me over until I could do my normal routine. This will make a great neck cream, however!
Wondering if using both the toner and scrub weakens your skin barrier, makes it sensitive? The matchy matchy colors make for an easy pic.
I think you are absolutely on to something, @elleb810. It is sometimes more fun to create a photo than anything else, so I may be guilty of that! But I also learn how to work around unexpected issues better that way, since I have already committed myself to a routine. At any rate, something is learned during the process โบ๏ธ
@eshoe I love your picture!!! Hmm 10% glycolic that seems high. I donโt remember seeing that product here Iโm wondering if itโs to high Canada doesnโt allow it. I have the scrub now Iโm excited to try it. I remember trying the cream and not feeling like it was overly amazing so Iโm happy to hear itโs not just me. How has your skin been lately?
@ather that definitely might be the case. Seems like the acids are really under control there!
My skin has been a-ok until I tried GLAMGLOW BRIGHTMUDโข Dual-Exfoliation Treatment Mask last night. It ended well thanks to Dr. Jart+ Ceramidinโข Body Lotion 6.76 oz/ 200 mL and Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin โข Moisturizing Cream 1.69 oz/ 50 mL. Thankful I had those on hand to help soothe the madness!
How about you? Any fun/interesting skincare adventures lately?
@eshoe Well in March I woke up one Friday and my eye was swollen almost to the point I could only open it a tiny bit. I had a really bad infection in my face. Not sure how I got it or where it came from. I had to be super careful so basically no makeup and minimal skincare until it healed. Since my face has been good. Very dry but Iโm guessing itโs due to the season change. I switched my foundation to the Kosas oil and it seems to be better. Iโve also been using lawless set the stage primer which I feel works like skincare so double win!! I finally feel like Iโve gotten my skincare routine down perfectly! I used a mask and I added a retinol in last night and my face seems to be ok this morning. Shani Darden Skin Care Mini Retinol Reformยฎ 0.3 oz/ 10 mL I wish the foil had enough for more than one use because it felt so nice. Hope all is well with you and the fam!!!
Oh @ather, that sounds awful! How scary, too. I am very happy to hear that it has healed completely.
I have tried that retinol as well. It was working fine (no irritation at 1x a week) until I bumped it up to twice a week. My skin was NOT happy! I havenโt tried it again since that (a few months ago), but maybe now I will give it another shot. Good luck with it, I hope it is smooth sailing from here!
@eshoe thanks for the reviews on the tula products, I loved one of the cleaners I received so much, so it's nice to see how other products perform
Oh thatโs good to know about the cleanser, @lmaster. Would love to know which one it was!
@eshoe I think it was the cult classic purifying cleanser
@eshoe, I found the Vitamasques gemstone masks I tried, including this jade one, to be options for filler masks. Nice that it's a repurchase for you. I see them at Target so it's accessible for many.
Thatโs good to know about the gemstone line, @itsfi. I picked up a berries one and am hoping ๐ค๐ผfor a positive experience out of that one, too!
PSA: early access available on Sephora app, today (5/16) only
@itsfi Oooo such a great set!!! I didnโt know they had watermelon under eye masks!!!
