💕😌 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💗

@lmaster  I didn’t know Dr. Jart did a bubble mask! I am with you I feel the need to wash the bubbles off. Especially if it gets super bubbly!! 

[lmaster]

@ather I'm so glad I'm not the only one 🤣 it just doesn't seem right 🤷 thankfully it wasn't a waste, I did have good results washing it off

[Cissy63]

I am with you @lmaster!  I have only used 2 bubble masks.  And they were wash offs   I would have done the same 🌹. Good to know your skin had good results with it!

[lmaster]

@Cissy63 I had good results leaving it on for 15 minutes and washing it off, thank goodness 😂 I just couldn't pat bubbles into my skin and leave it to dry 🤷

[Mellmars1185]

@lmaster Ooo, a bubble mask! I like how they pop on the skin. It feels so refreshing. I have only tried the Sephora Bubble mask.

[lmaster]

@Mellmars1185 bubble masks are fun to me 🙂 and they leave my skin feeling smooth and soft

[eshoe]

I thought this looked familiar, @lmaster - I have this one! I will try it tonight and report back. I think you made the right call on washing it off, that's just...weird? I wonder if I should leave it on to see what happens 🤔

[lmaster]

I was scared I would have a reaction @eshoe like turn red and itchy 😂😂 my instinct would not let me keep it on 🤷 please let me know how you feel about it

[eshoe]

I have had it out to try since Saturday @lmaster but it was a crazy weekend. My daughter has been sick and needing extra comfort so my nighttime routine has been a little off! Hopefully tonight. I did read the package though, and it is so odd...I do not see any instructions to wash it off. Maybe I will be brave and leave it on half of my face so I can compare 😆

[lmaster]

@eshoe no it definitely does not say wash it off,,, but I just couldn't leave it on without fully knowing what leaving it on would feel like 😂😂😂 awwww take care of your princess, you know where I am 😘

[eshoe]

Thank you @lmaster ☺️

So I did use it last night, and do you know, that mask just refused to bubble up! It was the first time I had that happen, too. I checked the expiration date and it was well within the time frame (exp in 2024). Just because of that, I did not worry about washing it off, but how weird.

[lmaster]

That's so interesting!! Well, you tried and I agree you @eshoe 

[CynthieLu]

I have never used this one, but when masks don't have clear instructions 🤪 that's tough right?

That's a hard guessing game @lmaster 

I checked online and one site , Stylvana, had a How To Use Tab, to expand on this one. It says after to pat it in and not rinse, but if every other bubble mask you've used is rinse off I'd still be hesitant ‌😅‌

[lmaster]

@CynthieLu yeah I felt so uneasy leaving it on 😂 my instinct said nope

[CookieGirl1]

@lmaster I've only used one bubble mask and it was utterly unimpressive.  Have you used any that REALLY bubbled?

[lmaster]

Yes, as a matter of fact, the ones I've used bubble so much they usually get in my mouth or eyes @CookieGirl1 😬

[CookieGirl1]

To help with my tired, dry undereyes: the Wander Beauty Baggage Claim Gold Eye Masks.  Gosh, these felt amazing a couple of nights ago!  They unfortunately slip around a bit so it's hard to actively work on something else while wearing them but I applied them right before bed and let them work their magic while I read for a few minutes in bed before going to sleep and it was SO relaxing.

[Shosh85]

@CookieGirl1  So happy to hear you liked these! I got some in a subscription once and really loved them too! 😃

[CookieGirl1]

@Shosh85 I actually have a box of the regular Baggage Claim eye masks (not sure if they're really different from the gold masks or not) that a friend gave me awhile back and I haven't even opened them yet!  After trying this pair I'm convinced that I need to break into that box 😍.

[ather]

@CookieGirl1  Sounds perfect! 

[Cissy63]

I absolutely love these eye masks @CookieGirl1 🌹 So glad you enjoy them too🌹
