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
Ooh I've never heard of this line before, it sounds like a really good one! I'm glad you enjoyed it @Shosh85 it sounded lovely ๐ฏ ๐
@CynthieLu This is a pretty solid line! I haven't really been disappointed by any of them so far! ๐
@Shosh85 This sounds like a perfect mask! I love it when a mask makes my skin look brighter and feel softer. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
@PrettyPaint Yup, it's definitely worthy of a repurchase! Makes a great morning mask!
@Shosh85 What a combo! The results sound amazing!!
@ather Honey makes everything better! This definitely turned out great! ๐ฏ
@Shosh85 Ooooh, ginseng and honey? This mask sounds like an absolute dream!
@QueenMarceline The results really turned out nice! ๐
@Shosh85 I really like this brand, I bet it was lovely
@lmaster Yup, I agree, this is a great line of masks! I'd definitely repurchase most of them!
I love the masks from this series @Shosh85! ๐ It was one of those sheet masks where I started with one sheet years ago, loved it, picked up another one, loved it, then another one and... yep, loved it, and ... A honey ginseng scent gets a thumbs up from me! ๐ Way to check off those letter themes. Have you tried all of the "flavors" from this series?
@itsfi Yup, these have been really great! I think there is 10 varieties in this line and so far I've tried 7. I still have Mugwort and Tea Tree to try, but never was interested in picking up the Lotus one. Have you tried them all? Would love to know what your favorite has been so far?
@Shosh85, I've tried 6 - I still have citron, green tea, tea tree and lotus to try. All but tea tree are somewhere in the bin. I'm not sure I will try tea tree; tea tree isn't my favorite ingredient for skincare but I do like the idea of the mask being a honey mask (and you know I love honey as a skincare ingredient) that is infused with tea tree, suggesting the honey is more prominent.. All the ones I've used have been good but I think my faves are blueberry, apple, ginseng and raspberry ones. I probably need to use them all or most of them in closer proximity to one another. Any ones that particularly standout for you among the ones you've tried?
@itsfi It's so hard to pick a favorite from this line. I think if I had to choose it'd be the Raspberry one, but really, I like all the ones with milky serum pretty equally. Basically, I prefer the "honey infused" ones over the "water infused" ones.
Also, thought it was interesting that in the list of ingredients on the Raspberry mask, it shows it contains strawberries (it even smells like artificial strawberries to me) - but I don't see raspberries listed? Am I missing something? ๐ค
There is a Raspberry version of this mask, @Shosh85 ๐ that sounds like an easy winner! Even though it sounds like it may be โpseudo-raspberriesโ ๐
@Shosh85, hahaha! You are not missing anything. ๐๐ผ I remember looking up a couple of the extracts that I was not familiar with to see if they might be another way to say raspberry but nope. They were definitely not raspberries or even raspberry related. I even checked to see if the โbeach strawberryโ was in fact a strawberry ๐ just to give โem the benefit of the doubt and itโs a strawberry alright. ๐ At one point I wondered if there was / was supposed to be a strawberry infused honey mask - how great would that be? ๐๐ฏ
Back to raspberries, I know I see some masks with raspberry ketones as an ingredient but not so here that I remember. I also donโt remember coming across many raspberry masks in general - thereโs the old raspberry yogurt one from the fusion line from The Creme Shop which I liked, and Laneige made/makes a wash off raspberry yogurt one that was alright. I think Origins had one in their flower line but that series is too heavily fragrances for me - my eyes are watering just thinking about the scents on those. ๐
@itsfi Yup, I did the same thing! For a second I thought maybe "Beach Strawberry" was a type of Raspberry.... I was seriously so perplexed with one ๐
It's been awhile, but I do remember really liking that Raspberry mask from The Creme Shop!
If I'm reading right the theme right now is 5 minute wonders? Oooooh what masks are nice for a quick little pick me up?
My entire collection is 15+ minutes easy ๐
I did go shopping at Marshals and find these gems to try thou
**never used these ones before but I've heard very good things ๐ **
โ
Beautiful composition, @CynthieLu! Ceramide masks are are a must to have on hand ๐๐ผ
@CynthieLu Great find!!! I always see those shot ones but Iโve yet to try them too!!
I've seen them around alot too @ather so this one will be the first try, lol well see how it turns out when I give it a go lol
