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
@heartsmyface I'm pretty sure it's just the strong amount of lavender oil (possibly some peppermint oil too). I quite enjoyed it and so did my tired feet, haha ๐
@QueenMarceline I love the feel of peppermint โteaโ spritzed on my legs in the summer so feel like Iโd enjoy this:)
I love a strong lavender scent. ๐
@missy94612 Haha, honestly... same.
This one works for both @keana1's fruit theme from last week and this week's band name theme from @PrettyPaint - anyone up for listening to a set from The Electrolytes? ๐ I can also get in a V for Vitamasques, vitamins A & C, and vegan-friendly, along with a U for UK - the company is based in the United Kingdom; their masks are made in South Korea.
tl;dr: soft, thin-leaning cotton sheet carrying an ideal amount of a clear, cooling, viscous and faintly scented essence that leaves skin feeling and looking hydrated and bouncy, with a fresh-faced, dewy glow after half an hour of wear. A great mask for all skin types; best suited for normal, oily or combo skin types year-round, and for those with more dry skin in the warmer months
Ingredients List: (from Vitamasques US site)
@itsfi Yum! This mask sounds great! Iโm wondering if there would be enough moisture to use after a day in the sun since it has a cooling effect. And the faint scent would make for a great relaxing nap!
@ather, a good watermelon sheet mask (and an actual watermelon, for that matter) after a day in the sun is great for re-hydrating the skin. ๐ I think this Vitamasques one would have enough of the essence to infuse hydration back into oily, normal and combo-leaning dry skin types. Someone with dry or dehydrated skin might need a more, depending on the dryness or hydration level of their skin.
This sounds great @itsfi And I like watermelon in a sheet mask ๐
@Cissy63, watermelon sheet masks are wonderfully hydrating, which my skin benefits from all year round. โค๏ธ๐
@itsfi sounds great and the watermelon is making me hungry!
@Mellmars1185, there's always room for watermelon. ๐ As a sheet mask or snack; or both. ๐
@itsfi Yay you made all the themes work! I think I have a few masks from this brand floating around in my stash though Iโm sure which ones. watermelon is always a pleasant fragrance and it being amore natural scent is appealing:)
@heartsmyface, I've been pretty impressed with this brand. If you have the lychee one, definitely tear into it - it's a favorite. I recently picked up the blueberry one - it has niacinamide in it - and am looking forward to giving it a try.
LOL, The Electrolytes - love it. The watermelon, too - a refreshing treat.
@missy94612, I love watermelon, as a fruit and in masks! โค๏ธ๐
@itsfi the electrolytes ๐ love it!!! Mmmmm watermelon!!!
@lmaster, The Electrolytes will put on a highly charged concert! ๐๐ I love watermelon. I think I'm going to make it my goal this summer to eat so much of it that I turn into a watermelon. Hahaha!
@itsfi both the mask AND your bowl of melon look amazing!
@CookieGirl1, I love spring and summer fruits. The watermelon and sheet mask were both refreshing! โค๏ธ๐
@itsfi The Electrolytes - I like that! I am also loving that bowl of watermelon - it looks like a good one! I'm glad that the mask was refreshing. My skin is also combination right now. I think I need a combination sheet mask that is detoxifying/clarifying for the nose/chin and hydrating for the cheeks.
@PrettyPaint, I love watermelon! ๐ I've no idea how to pick the best ones; this one turned out to be really juicy and delicious! Oh my goodness, how great would it be if there was a mask that was both detoxifying/clarifying for the nose/chin and hydrating for the cheeks?!! Definitely let me know if you run across one like that. It would be, in the words of Chandler Bing when he was stuck in an ATM vestibule with Jill Goodacre ... "perfection". Hahaha! (Just ignore that Friends reference if it doesn't make any sense to you).
