Lush Cosmetics | Cupcake Facemask

Hi guys,

After falling head over heels in love with the Lush Mask of Magnaminty (from £5.50) I decided to try out a few others from their range. I bought The Sacred Truth (£6.50) and Cupcake (£6.50) both of which sounded divine.

As you know, I have purchased a few skincare products to help combat my dry skin but I have noticed a few breakouts along my jawline, forehead and chin. I know this may be down to my period or college stress but its been a massive pain in the arse.

Cupcake has been made for oily skin sufferers so I knew I needed this. The scent coming from this mask is marvellous. It actually smells like a cupcake, one you cannot eat! It contains vanilla, fresh mint, Rhassoul mud and cocoa powder. All ingredients help to draw out dirt and impurities as well as giving a deep clean. As well as this, it will help to moisturise and soften the skin. Sounds divine. To prepare my skin, I double cleansed and layered this all over my fresh clean face. I focused this on my problem areas as I wanted to absorb the oils and help with the breakouts. I waited with baited breath for 15 minutes before removing this. I was going to go in with a face cloth but lukewarm water and my hands done the job just fine.

I was a little sceptical about this as I don't truly believe something can work after one use but I swear, after using this once, the large cyst I had sitting on my chin had reduced by almost half its size. This impressed me to no end as I felt as though it had done its job and actually helped to draw out excess oils and dirt that were trapped deep within my skin. My skin felt nourished and soft too.

It’s hard to find fault with this mask. It does exactly what it says it will. It smells like cupcakes and really treats the skin.

Have you tried this mask?
