A small haul : Lush

Lush. Lush. Lush. Don't you just love saying the word Lush? or am I the only weird one here? hahaha When I first discovered Lush, the store, I was filled with joy and excitement. A beauty shop that believes in natural ingredients and against animal cruelty, need I say more? I love the fact that the products are all homemade in the UK and it has an expiry date! It justifies how natural their products are. 

I went in and I literally had to control myself from spending on every single thing in the shop! Every thing smelled amazing and I had to contain myself. I narrowed down my choices from 10 items to just 3. I was sad but I was happy with I got-- Oatifix fresh face mask, Sea Spray hair mist and Popcorn lip scrub



I love the simplicity of the packaging and on the bottom of each product, there's a sticker of the person who made the product! How can you not love that? It makes the experience even more personal and you appreciate it even more

Oatifix Fresh Face Mask: I've used up all of it right before the expire date! I was scared that I was not gonna use it all up before the expiry date. So yeah, woooohoooo achievement unlocked!
There's oatmeal, fresh bananas, ground almond, illipe butter, and vanilla. It smells like breakfast and somehow the smell gets me hungry for french toast. I'm not a fan of the texture tho. I don't know how else to explain but i'll try. Hmmm. Ok it's like making oatmeal for breakfast. You know, when you didn't put enough water to the oatmeal and it becomes all clumpy. Yeah, that's the texture of this face mask. It just gets all over the place. I feel like I'm wasting it when it gets in the sink (I know it's such a petty thing but I guess it annoyed me a tiny bit) I personally prefer masks that has a texture like a moisturizer. That's the only downside of this mask. Other than that, it makes my sensitive skin super soft and I don't need to put on moisturizer afterwards. This mask helps to reduce any redness on my skin and calms it down :) 
Verdict: I don't know if i'll repurchase this. Definitely wanna try other masks first! There'so many to choose from 

Sea Spray Hair Mist: I have been looking for a cheaper version of the Bumble and Bumble sea salt spray. I honestly think it's way too expensive to pay £21 for a hair product! Anyways, when I saw this and I saw the price tag. I just went ''WINNNNN!!'' I tried it on my hair and I fell in love with the smell. It smells of something fruity and it wasn't overpowering. I hate hair sprays that smells too strong. This product is great to add a beachy wave to your hair. I don't mean to brag but I have been blessed with curly hair and this spray defines my curls and lifts it. I love to use this to touch up my curls when it starts to get out of shape.
Verdict: YES! I will definitely repurchase this.

Popcorn Lip Scrub: I really don't need to say anything about this one. This product had me at "Popcorn." It's winter and my lips are dry and chapped and I hate it. I use this twice a day and my lips are getting softer annnnd it tastes amazing too. Maybe you're not supposed to lick it off but how can I not when it tastes like popcorn? This is my favorite purchase out of the 3! It looks small but trust me, this product can last you for a long time! 
Verdict: A BIG YES! It's my favorite buy, definitely will repurchase! 

What's your favorite face masks from Lush?
