Put your best face forward with Lush

Put your best face forward with Lush

Lush by name, Lush by nature! The wonderful aroma of the store can be sensed for miles around, leading beauty junkies to their Mecca! By using Lush products not only do you look gorgeous, but also you get to feel great about yourself. Their products and vegetarian ingredients are only tested on humans, in recyclable packaging, with all fragrances hand-blended by their happy work force.

Do not be put off by the basic black packaging. At Lush you don’t pay for fancy marketing campaigns headed by A-list celebrities, you pay for the product. And boy do they pack a punch! photo1

Loaded full of deep cleansing and invigorating juice of lime, lemon and grapefruit, combined with coconut and sea salt. The Ocean Salt Face Scrub is not for the faint of heart. If you love a gritty exfoliator that is sure to leave dead skin cells shaking in their boots, then this facial scrub is your new best friend. Use twice a week by massaging in upwards circular movements around the face, neck and décolleté, avoiding the delicate eye area. Continue massaging for a couple of minutes, concentrating on areas prone to congestion, then splash with cool water to remove. photo

Post-scrub is the optimum time to apply your chosen mask. With dead skin cells removed, anything you apply will penetrate the layers of skin more effectively. If radiant is the look you’re going for, then the Sacred Truth is your mask of choice, boasting an anti-oxidant rich blend of wheatgrass, ginseng and green tea to rid the complexion of those dulling free radicals. This reviving and brightening mask feels cool upon application, and although it dries with a clay finish, its nutritious butter ensures the skin is left plumped and hydrated. photo2

To complete your twice weekly at-home facial routine, apply Gorgeous Moisturiser. Guaranteed to make your skin feel “happy” with its blend of six carefully selected essential oils; the aroma is sublime. Suitable for any skin type, it adapts to suit each individual’s needs. 3

To maintain the effects of your at-home facial, use Ultra-bland Cleanser in the morning and evening. This wax and oil-based balm removes waterproof mascara, grease and make-up without stripping the skin of its natural oils or altering the PH balance. Massage the cleanser all over closed eyes, face and neck with gentle upwards movements. Then remove with a muslin cloth soaked in hot water.

Now wait for the endless compliments to come flooding in!
