💕😌 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!

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?

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?

You? Scooping up 10 packs of masks at maybe TJ or M..I don't believe it @sonnydee 🤣

Mmmmm, and how is the lime-mint, @sonnydee? I have t tried a potted Fresh scrub. Curious how they compare to Lush.

[sonnydee]

you really smell the lime while in the pot, & putting it on. But once it's on you smell the mint. I don't know how they did it but it's magical!😍💚💚💚💚 @eshoe

[eshoe]

I sounds awesome and like I totally need it, @sonnydee. Mentally tagging it because I need to reign it in for a bit😉

The Creme Shop Hello Kitty Ready Set Glow Sheet Mask

This is a medium thickness cotton sheet mask that that had cute little pictures on it. It was saturated with a watery and shimmery serum that had a light perfumy-floral kind of smell. Not my favorite scent, but it was light enough it didn't bother me much. The fit was ok - just slightly too long at the chin, a tiny bit too wide at the temples and the space between the eyes was a little too wide. The adherence was good and it was comfortable to wear the 20 minutes I had it on. There wasn't any tackiness after removing and my face looked brighter and less dull, and my skin had a nice glow and felt soft and smooth. It also claims to provide hydration, but my skin actually felt just a smidge on the dry side.

I didn't like the scent and that it didn't live up to it's "intense hydration" claims, but I did love the results I got and the fact that there's snail in the ingredients is even better (half way down, but still, I wasn't expecting it at all😉🐌) I am happy I still have more to use up and might consider a repurchase if spotted at TJ Maxx/Marshall's again. 😃

Darn. I tried to post a picture of the mask and the ingredients, but the site wouldn't let me. I'll try again later. 🤨ETA: I even tried posting from the app and it still didn't work. 🤷🏻
ETA: Yay! It worked posting it from my MAC!

This entire line is just so cute isn't it @Shosh85 !  I hope you find more out and about!

[Shosh85]

@missjeanie  It really is so cute! The results are pretty decent, but honestly, the cuteness factor is what compels me to buy these! 😍

[missjeanie]

I'm a sucker for the cute too @Shosh85 , no shame in it! lol

[meou]

@Shosh85  I'm such a sucker for sanrio and this is so cute 

[Shosh85]

@meou  Oh my gosh, me too! The cuteness kills me! I want to buy them just for the packaging! 😂

[meou]

@Shosh85 I've definitely done that before 🤣 

[eshoe]

Easily one of my favorites between the two, @Shosh85 . Sorry you weren’t able to post a pic, those are always so helpful!

[Shosh85]

@eshoe  I'm probably just being slow, but which two are you referring to?

..... and I was finally able to post pictures- just had to bring out my MAC!

[eshoe]

No you aren’t slow, @Shosh85 - I was comparing this and the glow HK one in my mind, didn’t capture online🤦🏻‍♀️ 

I love my old Mac☺️

[lmaster]

@Shosh85 have I used this one?? It's so cute!!

[Shosh85]

@lmaster  I feel like I have the same question every time someone on here uses a Hello Kitty mask. Haha! 😃😂

[itsfi]

Oooh. 🤩 I like the results from this one too @Shosh85! Glowy, brighter complexion! 😍 It’s hydrating 💦 but I don’t know about “intensely” so; at least not for my skin type. 

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  I didn't like the scent, but everything else was pretty nice! This is the second time I've used it, and I didn't experience "intense" hydration either time. Last time I used it, (around the same time last year,) there was some light hydration, and this time my face felt kind of on the dry side. I guess that means it may not be for my skin type either 😉🤷🏻

G for Goodal Fit? I didn't look closely so I thought they really screwed up on this mask. it only covered the lower half of my face. and even that was a odd fit. the nose was really wide😷 Smell?I honestly dont remember...I was too baffled with half of a mask. it must've been pleasant enough to be not distracting Consistency? I thought this was a mud sheet mask, not at all. it bubbled. Boy did it bubble. 😬 And i like bubble masks Ease of use? didn't even think about talking, it bubbled up alot. I spent the last 3 min or so standing above the sink...waiting, it felt like it was slipping off. i kept it on for about 12 min, then I just gave up (it only calls for 10min). I had to rinse out my ears, i was careful to keep my mouth closed but during the rinse ( where it turns into a soapy consistency) i got some in my mouth & eye. It tried to clean out my nostrils as well.🤦😲 Would I  purchase/try again? no, this was not for me. I did spread some of the bubbles on my forehead and may be it cleaned out my pores, but only ever so slightly. My skin didn't feel dry or stripped, but the trouble was unfortunately not even close to the reward. This was a gift from the ever so generous @itsfi & I thank you very much for sharing this with me! i enjoy trying new things but this was too messy for me.🖤🖤

[missjeanie]

Hahaha... I'm just picturing you standing over the sink with an enormous bubbly beard mask @sonnydee !  Too bad it wasn't amazing, I would have been wondering where the other half was as well... but it sounds like you were a good sport about it!

[eshoe]

The print on this package reminds me of the Ruth Asawa forever stamp, @sonnydee .
