6ADE6F2B-300D-4DE5-8A89-DEBA0CC45743.gif

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 ๐Ÿ’ฐmask that is share-worthy? Or find a dupe that works even better than the original? Details, please!

Spoiler
JanuaryFresh Starts - Time for a re-set, or morning masking? However you see it, this month is all about new beginnings.
FebruaryWinter 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.
MarchMarch 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!
AprilSpring Fling - Baskets and bouquets, showers of much-anticipated rain...this month's focus is herbal and floral sensory delights.
MayDew 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.
JuneSummer 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 masks๐Ÿ’—

@QueenMarceline Whoa that photo is stunning. 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Samtian Thank you, I think so too definitely matches the vibe of the mask. I did however find this photo on the internet, I forgot to take a photo of my mask and didn't feel like going back into my bathroom to take one ๐Ÿคฃ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

D is for Dust 

Spoiler
I thought the JC Anti-Dust Therapy Mask was an interesting looking mask. They are redoing my apartment hallways right now so there is a lot of dust about, although upon further research I believe the anti dust may be referring to environmental pollution, which Iโ€™m sure my skin also needs since I live in a city. 

The first part of this mask was a thick and foamy cleanser which left my skin feeling very clean though I think itโ€™s the kind of cleanser that might strip my skin if used long term. Part 2 was the sheet mask. This was green, super soft and well saturated. The fit was a bit large but fine. It was still saturated after 30 minutes. The scent was a clean fresh scent. Part 3 was lotion; this had the same sort of clean scent and was a medium thick texture. 

overall, I would say my skin felt very clean, hydrated and brightened after using this. The only con was it took about an hour for it to fully absorb. I would use this again, though I donโ€™t know specifically if itโ€™s actually doing anything to protect from the environment

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888  Sounds like it turned out pretty great - an hour for absorption is a bit much though!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

The package is beautiful @Kim888 ๐Ÿคฉ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888  Ahhh I sometimes take things very literal. So Iโ€™m glad you figured out what it ment. I would have been confused why I need an anti dust mask. An hour wow thatโ€™s a true commitment!!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888 I love the name anti dust! ๐Ÿคฃ

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888, whoa! The results sound good, but it took an hour to fully absorb the serum? ๐Ÿ˜ณ Thatโ€™s a long time. Was it particularly humid the day you used the mask? 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

I guess it feels like everyday is humid now @itsfi @so itโ€™s hard to say - I guess I have to try it during the winter 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888 Wow! This is such a unique mask, I've truly never seen anything like it advertised as a "anti-dust" mask. I recently-ish started to work for a large company that has stocked products in many large (dusty) retailers which I often travel to visit and stay extended amount of time in. I've seen it's effect not only on my sinuses but also on my skin just feeling overall "meh". This is definitely something I'd be willing to give a go after my no-buy is over. Where can I find this? ๐Ÿ™‚ 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@QueenMarceline, verishop has it but in a 10-pack. Masksheets(dot)com usually stocks both a single mask and a 10-pack but both are currently out of stock. You might want to check back in at masksheets as it restocks from time to time. iHerb may do the same. 

 

@Kim888, itโ€™s both convenient ๐Ÿ› and trouble ๐Ÿ’ธ to have a store nearby that sells sheet masks. 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

Lol luckily itโ€™s not that close to me @itsfi , I saw it on the way to a friendโ€™s place! 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@itsfi Thank you so much for the info, I've been meaning to make an order from masksheets dot com for a while now. I'll check to see if it's in stock after my no buy is over in a few months ๐Ÿ™‚ It would be great if they restocked by then haha!

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@QueenMarceline I bought it from a local mask bar store so Iโ€™m not sure where online! 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Kim888 Thanks so much, I'll keep my eyes peeled. ๐Ÿ™‚

My Thoughts:

Spoiler
I had an entire post/review written out but my internet failed for a split second and everything got erased. It's 5 am, this is a belated post and I don't have the energy to retype everything so I'll just get straight to the meat and potatoes.

Smell: Coffee and Chocolate Mix (Mocha Scented), LOVE this scent. Super Unique!
Fit: Covers entire top half of the face (similar to a masquerade mask). Way too big on the nose, had to flip the mask up. Kind of tight around the eyes. Overall, fit was not great. 
Saturation: Nicely Saturated, not excessive and not sparse. Tiny bit of leftover serum in the pouch. 
Wear Time: Approximately 25 minutes
Feel: Nice, soft cotton sheet mask. 
Print: Masquerade style decor printed on the mask. 
Experience: Can smell this scent throughout the masking experience, felt nice and hydrating. Woke me up a bit.
Effects: Eyes felt de-puffed and overall more lively throughout the day. Nothing miraculous from the effects but overall pretty good results. 
Repurchase?: Very decent mask with some imperfections. Wanted to repurchase for that lovely scent alone but cannot find any in stock, possibly discontinued? 


Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@QueenMarceline  This was one of my favorites from the brand! I loved how large it was and the scent was seriously delicious! Glad you enjoyed it! ๐Ÿซ

 

P.S. - the last time I picked these up I got them from Bed, Bath and Beyond and it looks like they're still selling them. I have a feeling they're on their way out though ๐Ÿ˜ข

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@Shosh85 Yes!!! When I posted this they were out of stock on BB&B but now I see it has been re-stocked (which is a good sign, I think?) However they are pretty much gone everywhere else, sadly.

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@QueenMarceline 

The masquerade mask theme is cool. 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@nuinui933 It really was ๐Ÿ™‚ I enjoyed the mask overall. 

Re: ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Œ Mask of the Week Challenge ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ’–

@QueenMarceline  Why must all the good ones get discontinued??? Mocha scent. Like Urg my favourite!
