This is just a super snappy, ultra quick post to share with you what I’ve
recently picked up from one of the loveliest shops around; LUSH! I’m a massive
LUSH fan, the products are all vegan, the packaging is always recycled, and the
store interiors are always instagram-worthy. I’m a bit of a skincare addict
and, while I have dabbled in LUSH haircare and body creams, I always find
myself coming back to their skincare. It never ever disappoints, and I’m trying
to work my way through their entire face mask range. So far, I’ve tried Cupcake
(loved it, even if it was a little harsh) and BB Seaweed (which was a little
bit meh, and also harsh). I had originally only intended on picking up a new
face mask, but then I got sidetracked by the toner water too. Oh well!
The lovely girl in LUSH recommended Catastrophe
Cosmetic to me, as I explained to her my skin worries. I’ve got quite
sensitive skin, oily in my t-zone and I get really big, really sore spots every
now and again. She said that the ingredients in Catastrophe Cosmetic would work
really well for my skin, as it isn’t an exfoliant, and the various bits and
bobs in the mask work to reduce redness and mattify the skin. LUSH’s website
says it is: “a calming and moisturising fresh face mask packed with
blueberries, calamine and chamomile, rose, and almond oils to soothe and soften
the skin. We use wholesome blueberries as they are rich in vitamins and
minerals, including the antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E that help to protect
the skin from damage.”
I’d also been eyeing up the toning waters online for a while, so asked a
little bit about them. Again, I wanted something gently cleansing, something
that smelt like angels, and that wouldn’t cause my face to question my actions
and turn bright red in retaliation. The lovely sales assistant pointed me in
the direction of Eau Roma Water,
which comes in this spritzy bottle. It’s not one I’d seen before, but she said
it was gentle and that she’s used it religiously for ages now. LUSH says Eau
Roma Water is: “an elegant formula that’s suitable for even the most sensitive
skins. Rose water will help to calm and reduce redness, whilst lavender water
will balance and soften the skin. This was created as a way to hydrate and
soothe the skin both gently and effectively.” As far as I can tell, it smells,
well, lush.
What have you been eyeing
up at LUSH lately? What should I be trying next?
Lots of love,
