Hi there again!
As I promise you all before, that I will make more of beauty
products review and here I am coming in with two new products that I wanted to
review since last week!
First of all is the Lush’s famous chocolate-scented mask:
Cupcake.
Actually, this was my birthday present last week; my friend baited me
with a very subtle question when we visit Lush’s store and he was like “Hey If you were to try on one of the
mask (displayed) here what would you like to try?” and I weightlessly said “Of
course the chocolate one! Just for the sake of having chocolate all over my
face LOL”. And then next week he came by and gave me this. Quite surprised but
yes I’m excited. Thank you so much!
The complete ingredients and other what-nots are here, so read it beforehand so you get the full image of what’s this product is like!
I get this much for 60 grams of product:
And what I love about Lush product is that they usually (not
always) put the portrait of the makers on the packaging; so I knew that my
product were made by Ino-san. Thaankies!
How does it feel during usage?
Since this product should be keep refrigerated, I had a hard
time to smear it off my face smoothly as so many natural flaky ingredients were
there; however it was not until the point that it fall out all over, so that’s
good. Note to myself to keep it outside the fridge for several minutes before
application so that it will go smoother.
As for the smell, it was such a pleasant smell! I thought I
will get sick of the cocoa smell as I have to leave it on my face for 10 plus
minutes, however, when I use this and let it sit for several minutes, the cocoa
smell is not so strong but somehow it
changed more of sandalwood smell and a slight bit of mint in the middle. Thank
God it was such a refreshing (and rather masculine, I have to say) smell that
all of my worries lifted in an instant.
How does it feel after usage?
As the purpose of the product is on deep cleansing and oil
control, the end result was a squeaky clean feeling after washing. I don’t know
how “deep” the cleansing this product can do as I’ve just use this once,
however I fell my face a little bit brighter than before.
Rate and Re-purchase?
7 out of 10.
For me, I won’t repurchase it. It was purely not because of the
product problem, but for me personally I love masks or products that have
moisturizing effect as my skin were quite dry; for example I love this Lush
Face Cleansing Angel’s on Bare Skin as it was very moisturizing (and can be
used to scrub at the same time). Maybe I still can use it during summer where
the weather still tolerates my dry skin. I think this was perfect for people with oily
skin or combination skin with squeaky clean end result. So, for people with a
very oily skin, this maybe will be a great product for you.

Finish with the Cupcake Masks, just a quick review on the
Sakura Bath Bomb! Quite excited with this one too!
This one is Japan’s spring limited edition so I think they
won’t have it on the shelf anymore these days. The product itself is so pretty:
This one said to be made by Mako-san.
How does it feel during usage?
The color was not as pink as I expected it to be and it kind
of turned me down as I like Lush bombs that usually gave magical colors every
time; it turns a little bit to clear white but not as milky white either. It
stays on the clear white color. The smell was pleasant, but again, not as
strong as I expected it will be. Especially after it dissolves; I smell more of
a fresh powder smell rather than the sakura itself.
How does it feel after usage?
Nice but not that “urgh so great” one. It moisturizes in an
okay way but it gone when you pat dry yourself with towel. The smell, maybe,
gone? I don’t know. I didn’t notice such a good smell afterwards so I conclude it
must be gone without me knowing it. It
was different when I use their Karma Bubble Bath as I keep thinking of “what
a great smell this product had” several times even after my bath.
Rate and Re-Purchase?
5 out of 10.
Since it was a limited edition, I think it was worth buying...once. I won’t buy this anymore and will just go to the other limited edition
one or maybe the all year series one.

So...this week’s review turned out to be not a very satisfying
one, I suppose? However I won’t gave up on Lush’s product as I know that they
did some great sh*ts like the Angels on Bare Skin face cleansing which I’m
still using right now and I believe that they had some more on their stash of
products.
That’s it for today! See you on my next one!
