It's been years since I've used a Lush Mask. I was really working on trying them all out...but Lush is kinda far from me no matter where I have lived and sometimes I get too lazy to drive. And I realized I was wasting money trying to pay for them...it's best to get them for free when you bring back 5 of the empty qualifying Lush pots.So far I have one. But I was lucky enough to get it completely free in my last order. I'm pretty sure it was because it was about to expire but I'm grateful for it. Who doesn't love free stuff? Also...I usually use the Face Masks past expiration as long as the smell and look the same. I just chucked this empty Lush tub in the fridge and so far so good.
Lush claims:
A rich and relaxing mask for dry and sensitive skin packed with cleansers, moisturizers, fruit juices and more for a truly luxurious skincare experience.
Inspired by the quest for a good night’s sleep, Beauty Sleep is just the way to relax, restore and look radiant for tomorrow. This decadent mask is composed of calming lemon verbena and valerian root extracted in honey, soothing fresh coconut and a hydrating mullein leaf and linseed decoction. And, if this mask wasn't dreamy enough, we've added a dollop of Lush’s most exquisite moisturizer, Gorgeous. Wheatgerm oil and the cold-pressed oils of avocado and evening primrose nourish and moisturize, while neroli oil and myrrh resinoid keep skin feeling beautiful and bouncy. Freshly-squeezed orange, lemon and pineapple juices compliment the mask's polishing effect by offering smoothness and radiance. Fake a little shut eye with this extra-indulgent approach to self-care.
100% Recycled Pot/Contains Glitter
This only came out a few months ago...and I planned to try it. Especially because it's purple and sounds like it would make a really nice relaxing treat before bedtime. I'm all about relaxing and unwinding.
It's made specially for dry/sensitive skin. Neither of which I have but I don't think that's a dealbreaker and you never know until you actually try something whether it will work for you.
Now...let's start with the scent.
It's smells kind of odd. And like nothing I have ever smelled before. I wouldn't say it's a favorite scent but it doesn't bother me and for some reason..it's really relaxing and calming. It's like magic. Which even though I don't love the scent...I kinda love the scent if that makes sense. I have a hard time sleeping/falling asleep and I really and truly believe this helps.
Its main claims are that it's hydrating...which it it. You can tell it has honey/humectant in it. It really restores moisture and is like a big drink for your skin.Supposedly it has a little of their extremely pricy Gorgeous moisturizer in it, which I read somewhere was formulated especially for Princess Diana. Pretty Cool...
The second claim is radiance. And I would have to agree...my skin does look more radiant and glowy the next day.
It is chock full of goodies that are amazing for your skin. You can definitely feel a lot of the ingredients in the actual mask, I think the Adzuki beans are meant to be the main exfoliant. It's easy to rinse off and also you can rub it around for a bit of gentle exfoliation which makes it almost a two in one.
