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!
March Madness - Competition is in the air. Find a worthy dupe of a ๐ฐmask that is share-worthy? Or find a dupe that works even better than the original? Details, please!
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 I agree. I also love this mask! It is usually my Saturday mask but I didnโt get to use it on the weekend. Thank you for your kind words on my picture! I am trying to get as good as you!!
@ather, itโs been a while since SF released a mask; I wonder if they have anything in the works or if the 3 that they have is what theyโre good with for the time being. oh my goodness, thatโs sweet of you to say but I could never capture the angles like you did here. Itโs a fab shot!
What a great night of fun, @missy94612 - and topped with masking, too! Could not ask for anything better โบ๏ธ
The mask sounds great!! A girls night of fun sounds great too๐คฉ @missy94612
@missy94612 ohhhh what a fun night!!
@missy94612 This is such a great mask! I always bring it with me when travelling! I even wear it on the plane (pre covid)
That's a great idea - I'll have to send my husband off with one of these the next time he travels for work. He won't wear it on the plane but will use it one of the nights he is away.
Such a good one for a boost of hydration, @missy94612!
@missy94612, oh, this is a good hydrating mask!
Spotlight Ingredient: Rice
This rice-centered masking sesh, consisting of a sheet mask boasting the inclusion of 7 kinds of rice, and a DIY rice milk hair mask, has been in my weekly rotation for the last 5-6 weeks. Hadn't thought of it for any theme in particular, but I put the little noggin to work and this masking sesh has V for Vecua and vitamins all over it. Specific vitamins in rice include vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, B9, K and E.
Very interesting DIY project, @itsfi. Love the use of the condiment bottle for even distribution, too.
@eshoe, I really became interested in rice based products after using the Iโm From Rice Toner and liking how my skin looked and felt after finishing a bottle. The rabbit holes ๐ณ we find ourselves going down. ๐ This one happened to have some great results ๐๐ผand a way to repurpose extra empty condiment bottles that I donโt recall purchasing one of, let alone two. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ It did come in handy. ๐
You mean you end up with multiples of things in other categories besides beauty, @itsfi, and have no idea how? I think it is safe to say you would be prepared no matter what the emergencyโฆfood, beauty, or otherwise ๐
This is so different. Sounds terrific @itsfi ๐ฅฐ
@Cissy63, it was different than what Iโm used to, which was fun. Itโs fairly simple but I still watched the YT video a bunch of times before actually trying it out. ๐
I remember my mom and gran making their own rice water face and hair rinses. I should try doing it myself.
@nuinui933, I love that. Did you do rice hair rinses along with your mom and grandma? My hair was soft and shiny. ๐๐ผ If you end up doing a rinse yourself, Iโd love know how it goes.
I did them sometimes. I was a tomboy growing up and not at all into things like that but my gran and mom would also include me and I'd do it because I had to. That stuff was all lost on me but I want to give it a try now. I will let you know for sure.
@itsfi - interesting! I never really think of rice as a skin care ingredient but I do love oatmeal as an ingredient so I guess itโs not that far off! Glad you found the mask hydrating and plumping !
@Kim888, I had heard about rice as skincare and had tried a couple of rice sheet masks but I didnโt start to really give it more attention until I went through a bottle of the Iโm From Rice Toner. Itโs now one of the skincare ingredients that will catch my eye if I see a rice-based skincare product. Great, one more thing to be distracted by. ๐
