💕😌 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💗

I haven't tried a lot of the newer clean masks, but I remember liking the pineapple more. Watermelon is definitely my fave. @itsfi I'm going to test again on a different day when my skin isn't as annoyed, but maybe it makes a better average filler mask (a C is an okay grade!) than a responsive mask for me.

[itsfi]

@haleyvvvv, I haven’t used the regular watermelon face mask from the clean line yet, just the after-sun version. I picked it up along with some others from the clean line that I haven’t tried. Will move the watermelon one up in the queue. 🍉 

I’m really sorry your skin is annoyed. Grrr!!! I was doing pretty well and then bam! My skin decided to rebel the other day. 😔 

[haleyvvvv]

Oh, I definitely mean the after sun version!! I just use it not only after the sun, lol. 

My skin is actually doing okay, it was just like one night I left a brightening mask on a little too long for my skin so it was all red and sensitive. It went away by the next morning. I'm sorry your skin decided to rebel, @itsfi!!

I think it's looks very good to have skincare discussion with useful tips can really make the difference ..

K is for Kokostar 🍓🧇

Kokostar Waffle Mask ~ Strawberry

Material:

Thick, waffle weaved cotton, that was comfortable and breathable

Serum:

Pink slimy jelly - the consistency was sort of in between thin and thick. There was a lot extra in the pouch

Scent:

Sweet imitation strawberry scent - it was super light and could barely detect it while it was on

Fit:

Just a smidge too wide at the forehead and a little too long at the chin.

Wear Time:

35 minutes

Tack:

Light, but stuck around for about 20 minutes

Results:

Soft and smooth skin that felt nourished and moisturized and had a nice glow.

Repurchase?

Yes, definitely! There really isn't anything I have to complain about with this one, except for maybe the strawberry being so far down in the ingredients list...... I also wouldn't mind the scent being a little stronger 😉🍓

[eshoe]

Yum for strawberry scented-masks, @Shosh85! I broke out in a grin reading that you wouldn’t mind if the scent were stronger. I whole-heartedly agree🥰

[Shosh85]

@eshoe  This is such a nice line of masks! Definitely love a good fruity scent! The serum and material were so great too!

[missy94612]

@Shosh85  

The packaging is adorable. I think waffles will be in the works tomorrow morning!

[Shosh85]

@missy94612  Yup, they definitely nailed the packaging - it's actually what lured me in in the first place!

What's your favorite waffle topping?

[missy94612]

@Shosh85 

LOVE that question! 😂😂😂 Strawberries, chocolate and powdered sugar. Yum! I think I'm going to make waffles for dinner tonight. LOL.

[Shosh85]

@missy94612  Mmmm, yum! That sounds delicious! 😋🧇🍓

[ather]

@Shosh85  I like the packaging. It just looks yummy and the fact there was it least a little strawberry scent makes it even better! Plus who doesn’t love pink slimy goo 

[Shosh85]

@ather  Ha, yes to the slimy goo!! Not much to dislike about this one! 😃

[PrettyPaint]

@Shosh85  Ahhhh - this sounds so nice! I really like how you described the serum and the texture of the sheet. Sounds like a fun one to try! 🙂

[Shosh85]

@PrettyPaint  Yup, this one was all-around pretty great!! I definitely don't regret buying this line!  🧇

[lmaster]

Oh oh oh!!!! @Shosh85 and it has a light strawberry scent,,,, yes most definitely sounds great

[Shosh85]

@lmaster  Yup, it was most definitely a good one!!

[haleyvvvv]

I can't tell if I'm into the mask or just craving waffles, lol. Waffle wave cotton is intriguing, does it like hold extra serum in the grooves? Looks like a good one, @Shosh85!!

[Shosh85]

@haleyvvvv  These definitely make me crave waffles too! 🧇 I do think the weaves in the material helps hold more serum - it certainly feels a bit heavier right out if the package than most masks do! 

[PrettyPaint]

@haleyvvvv  I know! This is making me crave waffles. I don't think I've had waffles in at least five years. 

[ather]

@PrettyPaint  What!!!!!! I’ve been making waffles every day 😬
