Catastrophe Cosmetic Fresh face mask
Lush has
been one of my favorite brands for a while now. I love their soap bars, bubble
bars, and my absolute favorite: The Jumping Juniper shampoo bar!
Perfect for
an oily scalp.
As I needed
to replenish on my shampoo, I made a quick trip to Lush and decided to browse their masks. One of the lovely
ladies at the counter approached me and
we talked about my skin concerns. She ended up recommending the Catastrophe Cosmetic mask.
This particular
one, is packed with blue berries, calamine, rose absolute and chamomile blue oil
to soothe redness, irritation, and cleanse without stripping of its natural
oils. From the first use, I noticed immediately that it calmed my irritated
areas due to acne. They looked less red and my skin felt really clean and even
brighter. I have been using it for over two weeks and it is perfect for my sensitive
acne prone skin. No irritation or itching so far.
This mask needs to be refrigerated! I really like the cooling effect it gives once applied.
Price:$6.95/2.1 oz
As far as
application goes it can be a little tricky to put on because it does not have a
super smooth texture. It feels a little grainy due to the blue berries chunks
that it has. This didn’t bother me though. To rinse it out, it takes a little
work as well but then again, I have to do the same with the Mint Julep mask which
it was the one I was using before. I grabbed a small towel, damped it in warm
water and gently got the mask left overs off. My skin felt really smooth!
I have been
noticing less break outs, and the ones I am getting are not as big. I am really excited about what this mask can do for my skin along with
my other skin care routine!
Pros:
*Smoothes skin from first application
*Soothes redness
*Deep cleanses, less breakouts
*Smells great
*Natural ingredients
*Natural ingredients
Cons:
*It expires
pretty quickly. It can be used up to 2
times a week so I am planning on doing
it like so to get the most out of it.
*The price
is pretty doable but since it expires so quickly some people may not want to
spend the $6.95 on something they will be throwing away sooner than with other
masks.
* It comes
in a pot. You have to make sure your hands are clean to prevent the product to
get bacteria.
* Sold online only
I give this mask a high five and totally recommed it!

Sounds like a wonderful mask but I'm so lazy when it comes to actually using them - mine would simply go to waste as Lush masks expire fairly quickly, don't they?

They do expire quickly... but they smell and feel so good that I bet once you do it once, you will get hooked!
Deletei love it- this and cosmetic warrior are one of my repurchases.,
ReplyDeleteI have heard so much in the bloggersphere about lush products recently but I have to say that one of the cons you mentioned (how quickly it goes off) really puts me off... I want a mask to used on a pampering night & not just to use it up before it expires! Great review, thanks for sharing <3
