💕😌 Skin & Body Care Masking Challenge 😌💖

[eshoe]

Welcome to the Skin & Body Care Masking Challenge! 

Feel free to join in whenever and wherever. Share your thoughts and observations on a mask you have tried, we need all the details, please! Most importantly - have fun!

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?

Oufff @heartsmyface i hope you are feeling betel!!

[heartsmyface]

@lmaster  Oh much!   there’s nothing like getting over being sick to remind you how good it is to be healthy:) 

[Shosh85]

@heartsmyface  Awe, so sorry to hear you were/are sick! Hope you're feeling better!

Glad to hear ExfoliKate works great for you! I still have yet to try that one!

[heartsmyface]

@Shosh85  Just catching up on responses.  It’s been so long!  I’ve been healthy ever since though! 

oh wow!  No sample has ever made it your way?  

[Shosh85]

@heartsmyface  So glad to hear you've recovered!!😊

I actually might have a sample of this, I'm honestly just too scared to use it! 😅

Last time I used an exfoliation product I got a bad chemical burn that took forever to heal 😬 I don't even remember what product it was, and I'm pretty sure it was operator error, but the experience was traumatic enough to keep me away from anything exfoliating 😢

[heartsmyface]

@Shosh85  Ohhhhh!!  Yeah that’s no good.  Ouch!  I had a fear of First Aid Beauty for a while after being burned badly by a soothing mask. It felt like fire that wouldn’t subside until i got some lanocaine on!  I still give them the side eye even though I know I likely had an allergic reaction.   It’s never happened again.  

If you ever are curious in the distant future, maybe try a dab on your neck behind your ear. It’s nice and sensitive there so you can get an honest feel for how it would work on your face but it can be hidden if it is too aggressive on you and leaves you red. 
It is a pretty powerful exfoliator though.  I like to think my skin is pretty tough and even I feel intense tingling. The thought of the extra strength one scares me. 

[Shosh85]

@heartsmyface  Oh dang! That's not something you'd expect from a "soothing" mask! 😯 Glad to hear it's never happened again!

Dabbing the product on another area is a great idea! Will definitely have to give that a try sometime! 👍 Thanks for the tip!

[AVAnocado]

I love Marshall’s I got the Dr.Jart there and I got SUPERGOOP!

[lmaster]

@AVAnocado yes yes!! That's the best place to score face masks
