Lush "cupcake" face mask

"your'e my pumpkin pumpkin, hello hunny bunny" ! This is the most irritating, nauseating, pestering jingle/song I have heard till now....I literally clinch my fist when I hear this song....anyway, today's review is on a lush face mask that I have been using since past month......

Lets see how it fared in my books !


WHAT THE PRODUCT CLAIMS

Our chocolate scented mask which is ever so good for break outs and removing excess oils.

With anti-microbial, deep cleansing rhassoul mud and effective mint oils; mr. Lush does make exceedingly good masks

PRICE

INR 489.60 For 100 gms

MY TAKE

Ingredients:

Rhassoul mud, linseed infusion, glycerin  talc, cocoa powder, cocoa butter, fresh mint, sandalwood oil, vanilla absolute, spearmint oil, peppermint oil, perfume


1. First lets talk about the packaging, Its a convenient container type packaging which is quite easy to travel with and easy to store too. You have to keep it in the fridge or it will go bad.

2. I want you guys to warn you that "Do not buy" 100 Gms. at once as, you will not be able to finish it and it will go bad after 1 month. So, you will end up throwing away a lot of product, so its not worth buying 100gms at once.



3. HOW I USE IT: I mix 1 teaspoon of product with a few drops of gulaab-jal and lemon juice. The consistency of the mask becomes smooth and it becomes easy to apply



4. It smells of pungent chocolate...lol...like the chocolate has turned bad or something...the smell is quite strong and lingers on for the entire day and night. I don't mind the smell but it may bother people who have sensitive noses



5. It dries off pretty fast, and after I wash it with luke warm water, my skin feels fresh and dewy.

6. I can see visible changes even after 1 application and my skin glows and feels really soft after using this.

7. You should ideally use it only once a week, hence, I recommend buying only 50 gms of the product

LIKES

1. One of the best face masks I have used till now
2. My face glows and becomes soft and supple
3. I have seen that my skin doesn't break out after I use it, and it also prevents break outs
4. Controls excess oil on the face for the entire week

DISLIKES

1.Smell is strong and pungent
2. as it does not contain any preservatives, it expires after 1 month and then you have to throw the excess with a heavy heart

FINAL RATING 

4.5/5

It is a must try for oily and combination skin girls atleast once.I am definitely repurchasing this

Take a look at what Lush has to say about it !



till the next post

  4. Lush do not sell less than 100gms. You can make it last longer by keeping it in fridge. I am using it right now and very happy with it :)

  5. People always rave about Lush products so I always like to see the reviews. Sounds like a face mask that I would try, except for the chocolate smell. That would totally bother me.
