💕😌 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 💮

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]

Yeah @eshoe, I could see not being so sure about this one if it only lifted the skin by 252%. 😂🤣😂

[eshoe]

@itsfi that is serious stat! I would have loved to have been in on the study. Maybe someday😄

[itsfi]

@eshoe, we should do our own study. I wonder if we'd come up with the same percentages. 🤔

[eshoe]

@itsfi @ather it is on my to-do list!

 

[ather]

@eshoe  Hmmm I love when my dresses have pockets maybe masks with pockets is the next cool thing 🥶

[eshoe]

I love pockets, @ather, don’t we all? I am appreciating the value of hidden ones more and more, too. They tend to not lose stuff. I was out in nature this week and when I didn’t have on my sweatshirt with pockets, I kept trying to place my hands there. Thankfully I had backup pants’ pockets.

[ather]

@eshoe  Oh no I hate when I do that and I’m wearing leggings. So no pockets to be found!! 

[eshoe]

Yeah, the key pockets are nice but I need lipgloss pockets @ather ☺️

[itsfi]

Excellent point @ather @eshoe ! I ♥️♥️♥️ pockets in my dresses or skirts. It could be a huge plus with a sheet mask. Even better if there was a feature on the mask that let you snack or drink while masking. 

😂 

[eshoe]

Those might be called two-part hydro-gels, @itsfi @ather 😂

[ather]

@eshoe @itsfi  I guess we can always dream 💭 

[PrettyPaint]

@itsfi  Thank you so much for the added info on this. I agree that the "data" sounds a little sketch, but I'm still interested in trying it out. 

[itsfi]

@PrettyPaint, definitely let us know how it performs if you pick it up. The cooling sounds like it would be nice when the weather heats up 

[lmaster]

@itsfi thank you for your extensive research!!

[itsfi]

@lmaster, no problem. Hope it was helpful.

[Sunnysmom]

Thank you @itsfi . It sounds like something to try that’s for sure. I love those % CT use! 😂 But firming! Lifting! I’m in! Will be looking for feedback if some of you guys get it too. 

[missjeanie]

@Sunnysmom @itsfi  I scoffed at the percentages too… like how do you even come up with that lol! I think I prefer the ‘Fi’ measure X out 10 maskers extraordinaire better lol

[Sunnysmom]

😂me too @missjeanie ! Agree, much better new scientific term- ‘Fi’ measurement! 😄

[itsfi]

@missjeanie @Sunnysmom, I almost didn’t include the percentages they claimed because I had no idea how they came up with them. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Or how they could arrive at them. I’m not great with numbers but I furrowed my brows when I read it. Hmmm… maybe that’s what they want - creasing / wrinkling my forehead at the numbers and then “needing” the mask to help with the wrinkles. 😂 

[Sunnysmom]

Probably exactly what they want @itsfi ! 😆 They clearly want us to know how very precise they are too with those numbers! 

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  Oh nice! Thanks for looking this up! It totally sounds like something I'd love to try - it sounds wonderful! Now I wonder if it's reusable forever, or if there's a certain amount of times they suggest you can use it for 🤔 Either way, I'm sure I'll buy 'em!
