💕😌 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?

@CynthieLu 

This is a popular for one. One of my daughters loves the entire brand.

[CynthieLu]

I was researching them, I think they have a whole peach line 🤩 @minathayes 

[Samtian]

@CynthieLu Ooh sounds like a winner for sure!

[CynthieLu]

Oh yes, that glowy skin after was a really happy surprise 🤩 @Samtian a huge winner!🏆 

[lmaster]

@CynthieLu I'm all about that peach scent!! Sounds like a keeper

[CynthieLu]

Mee tooo, yum! 😃 @lmaster I think this one was all around fabulous 👌 👏

[Cissy63]

@CynthieLu  Sounds like a terrific mask.  Love peach scent 🍑

[CynthieLu]

Meet too @Cissy63 I loved it sooo much 😊

[eshoe]

@CynthieLu @this one gets a lot of live around here! A lingering peach scent sounds just fine to me 🍑🥰

[CynthieLu]

Scent is hard becuase it's so personal and fragrances can trigger skin reactions etc.. I'm so lucky in all my skins sensitivities, fragrance has never set me off *phew!* that's an obstacle I don't have to dodge. 

@eshoe I'm sensing it is well loved 😍  and I can see why, it was a treat to use this one 😄

[Shosh85]

@CynthieLu  Love this one! Happy to hear it turned out great for you too! 😃

[CynthieLu]

I'm getting the sense it's well loved 💗 @Shosh85  I feel like this would be great on every son type,  but definitely a great fit for dry/sensitive

@CynthieLu, this is one of my favorite masks. I love the peach scent and the milky serum. I bought all the different peach sheet masks from the brand after trying one last year. 

[CynthieLu]

It's sooo good right? I was so happy with it and it really did leave me glowing ✨️ 💛  @itsfi  it was a highlight in my skin care life this week

There were 21 sleeps left until Christmas when i took this photo. I was just late to upload.

The jelly-like texture of this SNP Diamond Water Sleeping Mask is what initially stands out. It comes out of the packet looking like a gel toothpaste and melts upon contact with the skin. As I spread the product across my face, I can see soft chunks of jelly material that pop up randomly that themselves emulsify into a smooth gel with the warmth of my fingertips. 

The product sinks in smoothly into the skin, without tack or stickiness, but I can feel there is something on my skin until the mask is fully absorbed, which occurs quickly, leaving a slight bounce to the skin. 

The next morning, my skin feels soft and hydrated, smooth to the touch. I like that this mask comes in a small packet. It reminds me of to go sugar packets. The packaging makes it very convenient for travel; there’s a lot of product in a single pack - I can get 2-3 uses from one packet. 

Would I repurchase? Maybe. I have plenty of sleeping masks, more than I need really, so I’m not in the market to purchase another one. That said, this is a mask I would be happy to use again. I’d like to see how it performs in the warmer months.

@itsfi 

Sounds interesting. Is this hydrating enough for really dry skin types?

[itsfi]

@missy94612, I wouldn’t use this in lieu of my moisturizer, but in addition to, as a last step of my evening routine. That said, I sometimes use a sleeping mask as a daytime moisturizer. This one could work out nicely for that for dry or very dry skin in the warmest part of the summer.

[lmaster]

@itsfi very interesting description, actually appealing 

[itsfi]

@lmaster, it's a good one. I just have a few too many sleeping masks open at the moment and I really want to work through some of those as well as the ones that haven't been open yet. 

[Cissy63]

@itsfi  This one sounds interesting 😀

[itsfi]

It was @Cissy63; I sure wasn't expecting jelly bits to form while I was applying it. If I didn't have a set of open sleep masks I want to use up first, I would consider picking up a few more packets of this SNP sleeping mask.
