Firstly, I'd like to apologise for not blogging in so long! I have been extremely busy with uni work recently but I'm going to make it my New Year's resolution to be more organised so I have time for blogging and uni work. Anyway, I better get cracking with today's review...
Introducing you to Cosmetic Warrior from Lush. This is the first time I've bought this face mask (and to be honest I meant to pick up Catastrophe Cosmetic - the similar names confused me!) and I'm really enjoying it. The face mask contains tea tree, which is an ingredient that has always worked well on my face, garlic, grapes, eggs, and honey. This product cools my skin and tightens it - thanks to the grapes and eggs. I suffer from quite oily skin but after wearing this face mask for 10 minutes my skin feels drier (without being unbearably dry) and cleaner. If I have spots, I find that they heal quicker after using this face mask than when I don't use it at all, however, it's not a miracle overnight worker. Also, if my skin is really bad, I can use this product on consecutive days without it being too harsh for my skin and my face won't become too dry. The only downside to this face mask is the smell - it's probably due to the garlic but I really dislike the smell of it. Although, you might like the smell of this face mask; it's just not my cup of tea!
In the future I think I'll stick to Catastrophe Cosmetic because it has a similar effect on my skin as this face mask does (but with a nicer smell!). Have you tried any of the Lush face masks? If so, which one is your favourite?

Same! I've been using tea tree products for years and they always manage to improve my skin x
DeleteHi Emma! I just found your blog and it is amazing!! LUSH is one of my favorite brands, so I was so excited to see that you made a post regarding one of their products! I started a blog yesterday and would love for you to check it out! www.saloniguptablog.wordpress.com Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm a massive fan of Lush too, I've just had a look at your blog and I'm excited to see what you're going to post on it x
DeleteOohh I don't think I'd like the garlic smell either - what a shame! xx

It's not the most pleasant smell! I'd definitely recommend Catastrophe Cosmetic if you're looking for a face mask with similar benefits to Cosmetic Warrior x
DeleteCatastrophe is my favorite cold cream from Lush. The smell is just wonderful and it always leaves my face feeling super soft and brings down any blemishes I may have.
ReplyDeleteYes I love Catastrophe Cosmetic so much, I've already gone through 5 pots of it! x
DeleteThis mask is sounds INCREDIBLE! I love using their masks but often their smell is a bit of a turn off, which is why Catastrophe is my favourite mask too :)
ReplyDeleteJust stumbled across your blog and excited to see what else you’ll be posting this year! Looking forward to keeping in contact!

Thank you! You've got a lovely blog :) x
DeleteI really like this face mask but you're SO right about the smell!

Yeah it's a great face mask, shame that the smell isn't very pleasant x
DeleteA great, honest review! The garlic scent must be a real pity and especially as Lush are renowned for such gorgeous smelling products!

Thank you :) this is the only Lush product that I've bought and haven't liked the smell of! x
DeleteI've tried a few Lush face masks in the past and really liked them, but not sure I would be too on board with the garlic smell!

Lush make great face masks - and this is a great face mask too, it's just the smell that isn't too great! x
DeleteI have been meaning to stop into Lush! I'll probably avoid this one (I think I'll stick to using garlic for my food) but the Catastrophe Cosmetic sounds great!

I'd highly recommend the Catastrophe Cosmetic face mask (and the Cosmetic Warrior too if you can stand the smell garlic!) x
DeleteI've heard a few people talk about this mask, and it looks like I'm going to have to give it a go because I need this in my life! adaatude.com
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely worth giving it a go, it left my skin feeling great! x
DeleteThis face mask looks incredible.

It worked really well on my skin :) x
DeleteI used to love this mask! May have to buy it again to rekindle my love for it :) x
ReplyDeletehannatalks
Go for it! My skin felt so clean after using it x
DeleteI'm not sure I'd like the smell of this, which is a shame! Catastrophe Cosmetic is my favourite Lush mask, I love the blueberries :) xx
ReplyDeleteToasty
Same! It's an amazing face mask x
DeleteI love Lush face masks!
ReplyDeleteSo do I! I really want to try more of them because I've only tried Catastrophe Cosmetic and Cosmetic Warrior x
DeleteI've not heard of this one before, it's a shame it didn't suit you so well. My skin tends to respond well to tea tree so maybe I'll still give it a go xx
ReplyDeleteJasmine Talks Beauty
Definitely worth giving it a go! It left my skin feeling really clean x
DeleteThis sounds so good but I know what you mean about the smell. I can't stand the smell of any lush face masks and I remember the garlic one in particular haha. At least it's natural I guess!

Yeah this is great for your skin, just doesn't smell too good! x
