Product Review: LUSH Oatifix FreshFaceMask

Ladies... for years i have searched for a face mask that
1) My uber sensitive skin doesn't react badly to (we're talking red splodges and soreness)
2) Exfoliates away dry patches of skin
and
3) Nourishes my skin and makes it feel silky smooth

And just as i was about to give up the search i found this baby! It is absolutely, undoubtedly the most incredible face mask i have ever tried! Here's my view!

First off it looks (and smells) like you could eat it! When you put it on your skin it doesn't dry out and crack like clay based masks. Its made with Oats and almonds to calm your skin and exfoliate away dryness, and Bananas and Illipe butter (that's a type of nut found in Southeast Asia if you were wondering) so soothe and reduce redness. It also contains vanilla making the smell even more incredibly sweet but not too overpowering.

The best thing about it is that IT WORKS! Tried and tested by yours truly, it is simple to apply and wash off, when you do wash it off you don't loose the moisturised feeling it gives your skin.

At £5.25 its reasonably priced but unfortunately does have an expiry date (usually within 3 weeks of purchase) as all the ingredients used are fresh. It should also be kept refrigerated in order for it to stay fresh. I would use it once every 3 days and most definitely at night as the smell is so sweet and dreamy. But depending on your skin you may choose to use it more frequently or less often. LUSH also dont test any of their ingrediants or products on animals!

The best part is that once you have used it all up wash out your pot and keep it safe! Once you have 5 black pots (not just from face mask but from other products too) you can take them back to LUSH and get a free face mask as a thank you for recycling your pots!

I give this product 5/5 because for me there is just no faulting it! 

If you have used this or any of the other LUSH face masks then comment below and let me know what you think! And if you are still unsure on weather to buy it or not, the lovely ladies at lush will usually give you a little sample pot free if you ask them very nicely!

Take care guys! xx
