I needed a cleanser, because I'm sick and tired of the ones I buy in drug stores drying my face out. I have combination skin, a very oil nose and chin, but everywhere else is fine... until it gets wet and then my skin becomes really dry. I dread using face wash and cleansers sometimes because they just make it worse. *sad face* :-(
So the nice woman in LUSH told me to try the Angels on Bare Skin, which I have been doing for about five days. It's great, in terms of results. For the first time in ages I've been able to wash my face without having to stick it in a tub of moisturiser afterwards. This morning I even forgot to moisturise, something which hasn't happened in years. It makes my skin feel amazing, the texture and application is worth it for the results... as I seem to be finding with a lot of LUSH products! :-)

Also, there seems to be a whole field of lavender in my pot!!! You're supposed to add water to make it into a paste, but I have yet to perfect this art, so I'm getting clumpy bits in my hair and all over the sink. My morning routine is now;
Apply face cleanser
Shower and massage my face there, so I don't get clumps of stuff all over the sink and floor.
The first time I used this I had showered the night before, and ended up going out with bits of the cleanser in my hair. Not a great look! So now I don't use it unless I'm showering.
If anyone has had any success with any other LUSH cleansers, or even store bought ones that aren't LUSH, please let me know! I'm on the hunt for something that won't dry my poor face out!
I use this in the shower every morning. I apply it in the shower and either make a paste in my hand or just rub it between my palms. I also use 9-5 at night which doesn't dry out skin and removes make up :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one using it in the shower! Thank you :-) I will make a note of the 9-5 and pick some up the next time I pop in. :-) How long does the 9 - 5 last you? Is it worth getting the bigger of the two bottles? (sorry for the bombardment of questions haha).
