Hellooo! I have never really shopped at LUSH before, but the other week, I went in and decided to try out the Mask of Magnaminty. I had heard loads of good things about this mask, mainly from my old college friend Keera (check out her blog here!) so I just couldn't resist picking one up!
The Mask of Mag (as the man in LUSH called it) claims to fight outbreaks and return your skin to tip top condition as it has all natural ingredients; including Peppermint which is supposed to wake up sluggish skin, honey which is antibacterial so it helps to fight spots and aduki beans which are an exfoliant so they remove dead skin cells!
I decided to get the self-preserving formula which has more honey in. This makes the texture of the mask a lot more gooey (I can't think of another word to use) so its easier to rub into the skin. It also lasts a lot longer than the non self-preserving formula. Although after reading some reviews and comparisons online, apparently the non self-preserving one is a lot stronger so you'd see results quicker. So I'll be trying that one out next!
I was told in the store that your skin will take about a week to get used to using the product, so it will be about 2 weeks before you see a difference in your skin. So far, I have used it everyday for a week and a few days and my skin does feel a lot smoother and it does look refreshed after I have rinsed it off.
To use this mask, all you do, is apply a layer onto your skin (this can be all over or just in problem areas - such as your T-zone and can also be used on your back, chest or anywhere else on your body) You then leave it on for up to 10 minutes, after this time it should be dry. Then you just scrub as you are rising the mask off.
So so far, I have been really liking this mask, not only does it smell amazing, but it also seems to work really well! I also donated a pound to LUSH's charity, which helps towards fighting animal testing, and received a free Hand and Body Lotion! Woop!
Let me know what other LUSH products you'd recommend!
P.S. I have now moved to university so my my blog posts won't be on a Monday and Wednesday anymore. I'm thinking they'll be on a Tuesday and Saturady (or more days in between depending on my timetable) But just keep a look out and follow me on Twitter or Bloglovin' to keep up to date with what I post!
