💕😌 2024 Masking Challenge 😌💖

[eshoe]

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 💮

Spoiler

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 masks💗

@itsfi I have to do that to my double chocolate donuts too,,, and sometimes m&Ms or crunch bars ughhhhh gooey goodness 🤦

[itsfi]

@lmaster, I have never had warmed up M&Ms or Crunch bars. Ooohhh… 😍

[lmaster]

@itsfi I don't over do it by melting them, but literally 10-15 seconds and they melt in your mouth

[itsfi]

That sounds perfect @lmaster! I think I’ll give it a try this weekend! 😍

[lmaster]

Some people don't like that warm out of the oven goodness,,, I'm not one of them 😂 I love to heat up everything so it's like it's fresh baked @itsfi 

[itsfi]

Yes to fresh out of the oven yummy goodness @lmaster! 😋 I am 100% on board with that! Way back when I was in school, I lived on this block where I had a 24-hour donut shop on one corner and a sourdough bread company on the other corner. 

[lmaster]

@itsfi ughhh that sounds like a great combo

[quspork]

This sounds like a nice one to have on hand, @itsfi!

[itsfi]

@quspork, agreed. I plan to keep one of these in my skincare emergency kit. The Innisfree store in my city closed permanently and it’s currently out of stock online so I will have to find an alternate way to source it. 🤔   Will also have to look into the other products in this line.

[Kim888]

wow high praise @itsfi ! I will have to add this to my list!

[itsfi]

@Kim888, I was hoping it would be good but this exceeded my expectations. 😃

So for O I am going to use Oh no i forgot to check my expiration dates mid year 😱

 

It is 100% cotton. Very comfortable and fit was actually perfect. I was nervous because it said not to use on irritated skin. Most of my issues are gone and it didn’t seem to irritate my skin anymore. It says power relaxation with moisture so I am happy it was very moisturizing. I don’t think it’s enough alone for where I live but it did help with a little boost! I would use it again but probably not seek it out. 

[PrettyPaint]

@ather  that's a cool looking mask, and great that the fit was perfect. I have definitely used an expired mask before...I had to do a major sorting project so fortunately all of my 2021 masks are gone at least. 

[ather]

@PrettyPaint  Oh that’s awesome!! I had 27 that were super close or already expired. I’ve been doing one a day to catch up. I have another pile that expire by the end of the year. And another pile with no date 🤪

[PrettyPaint]

@ather  I never know what to do about masks with no date. I usually just put them with the masks that will expire that year (just in case). I'm guessing I have a ton of powder makeup that is technically expired, though, so I guess it's not a huge deal! 🙂

[ather]

@PrettyPaint  I struggle with makeup expiring. If you take the 12 months after you open an eyeshadow palette that’s crazy. I barley pan in a year. 

[eshoe]

@ather what a huge relief that your skin is on the mend! Bummer this wasn’t a hit, but thank goodness it didn’t cause any further irritation.

[ather]

@eshoe  Yes!! Now if I can get rid of my maskne I’ll be all set

[Samtian]

@ather Ahahahaha that's my kind of O. Pretty package!

[ather]

@Samtian  Lol. I’m the worst

[lmaster]

@ather pretty packaging! Sounds really nice
