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
@ather Yeah, super sad about it. They made some of my most favorite masks ๐ข
I love both these sheet masks @Shosh85, and it's all thanks to you for turning me onto them! ๐ค I'm still so bummed that peripera decided to close its sheet masking division. ๐ I get that, particularly in South Korea, the sheet mask market is huge but their sheet masks are so good!! This juice collection, the smoothie line, etc. So good. ๐
Love, love, looooove that A by Bom honey mask - that one is definitely in my group of favorite honey masks. ๐๐ฏ๐๐ฏ
Oh, forgot to ask - are there any other A by Bom masks you like @Shosh85?
@itsfi I actually havenโt tried any other ones - but I definitely want to. How about you?
@Shosh85, I've tried the A by Bom Ultra Cream Mask which was nice (it's a cream mask!!!) but I don't see it anywhere online, which makes sense - must be discontinued. Ha! There was one I had on my list to try, it came with leaf shaped slice masks and a lyocell sheet mask which was meant to be worn over the slice masks. I imagine that is something you could put together yourself with a Kocostar slice mask (or a similar one from a different brand) and a lyocell or Tencel sheet mask.
I love that A by Bom mask! Even the packaging is great! This one I could see myself buying a box of
The Peripera discontinuation kinda crushed me. ๐ฅ I love both Juice and Smoothie lines, but the Smoothie line was my most favorite. My son really like them too! He likes to raid mask drawer, and every time he takes out the same ones - I think he just likes all the colors ๐
So with you @Shosh85!! ๐๐ผ Iโve been at this point where Iโm trying to gauge whatโs is a good mix of new-to-me individual masks and boxes of tried-and-true โflavorsโ, all without having an overwhelming amount of sheet masks. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ ๐ค I have really liked having a more manageable number of masks this year but I have to say โฆ the struggle is real. ๐ณ๐ฌ๐คฃ
Ahhhh, I love โฅ๏ธ that your son is so fond of those masks - the colors and design is very fun on that smoothie line. Do you both share the same favorite flavor? BTW, how cool are his jammy pants?!
@itsfi I think I remember liking the blueberry one the most..... my son doesnโt have a favorite- he just likes to stare at all the colors together ๐
@Shosh85 - grape soda mask looks and sounds refreshing. That's such a bummer that the brand isn't making the sheet mask anymore. Sounds like one to stock up on now.
@eshores It always seems to be my most favorites that get discontinued! There are two lines of masks from this brand that I love almost every single one of ๐ฅ
@Shosh85 @Yum grape soda sounds good! Sad when a good brand stops making masks !!!
@Kim888 Itโs SO sad! This is my most favorite brand of masks! - Itโs always the masks we love that get discontinued ๐ข
Wow, the third time with the A by Bom mask, @Shosh85 - that sounds like a possible favorite! ๐๐ผ
@eshoe Yup! Definitely had to squeeze it in for favorites week! ๐ฏ๐
Favorite mask of all time has to go to the Eminence Snow Mushroom & Reishi Masque. Eminence is an organic skincare line from Hungary, I usually buy their products at my local salon/spa but they are also available online at retailers such as Amazon. This mask targets anti-aging and goes for $70-80 so it is quite pricey for your typical mask. However, a little goes a long way, it lasts a long time and its absolutely divine on the skin. No mess, no smell (completely unscented) and no fuss. It's almost a thick cream-like texture and you mix it with a few drops of water to get the "masque" effect. Most masks are quite messy but this one is not due to it's color and consistency. Having this on your skin almost makes it feel like your face is being hugged by a cloud. When it goes on it's almost completely clear, so it does not even appear as if you are wearing a mask. I always keep this mask on for ridiculous amounts of time because of how gentle it is and how nourishing it is, which is something you usually cannot get away with while using other anti-aging masks. The effects are also great, my skin always feels so soft and regenerated. This is a great mask that I reach for all the time and I love that I can use this anti-aging mask even on the days where my target skincare routine is somewhere else (such as combating acne). For example, I recently used a new product that caused a severe and painful breakout and after many days of salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide treatments I reached for this mask because of how gentle it is on the skin. It really calmed down some of the pain and redness in my face from the breakout and it almost had an "aloe vera on sunburn" effect. I love this mask for that reason, it's the star of my beauty regime and I think it is worth every penny-definitely will continue to purchase this for years to come.
@QueenMarceline So glad you have a mask you love so much!
@QueenMarceline Thanks for the great review- this one sounds wonderful! I bought a bunch of samples from the brand and am slowly working my way through them, but so far Iโve liked what Iโve tried! Will have to remember this one ๐ข
@Shosh85 OOOH, what's your favorite product you have tried from them from your samples so far? I'm super curious.
@QueenMarceline I've only tried 3 so far - the Blueberry Soy Night Recovery Cream, Sour Cherry Masque and the Hungarian Herbal Mud Treatment. I loved the Night Cream and am definitely considering purchasing the full size. I liked the other two, but wouldn't say I loved them.
This is what I have left to try:
@Shosh85 I've honestly been eyeing that blueberry soy cream, it's usually on my recommended page on Amazon. That chocolate masque looks super interesting too. This brand definitely get an A+ from my on creativity and scent. I want to try everything ๐
@QueenMarceline I totally agree - A+ for scent! All three of the ones I've tried so far have smelled great! ๐๐
