Lush Dark Angels, Face & Body Cleanser Review.

This review on Lush Dark Angels face and body cleanser is going to be rather quick!

The Outer Packaging...

In short: I did not like this.

Okay so the good points:
-You get a tonne of product in here, this pot is going to last you a while!
-The Smell is AMAZING. It smells like aniseed & liquorice-ey and is just so good to the nose ;)
-It feels very natural, almost like you're exfoliating your face with cooled lava!? Haha
-It's very exfoliating, really, really exfoliating-so if you like that, this is for you

The not so good points:
-It's waaay to exfoliating for my skin and made my chin and nose area break out really badly-Horrible big red sore spots...not nice
-A bit....fiddly? So, you break off a tiny bit and make a paste in your hands. I like to cleanse/exfoliate/wash my face when I am in the shower and this is very difficult to use in the shower not to get water in the pot or too much water in your hands so it's no longer like a paste more like just black water...

So I am just going to have to give this product a....3/10. As the fact it broke me out so bad kinda overshadows everything else for me. Unfortunately all the lush face products I have tried have seemed to make my skin worse rather than better :/ Might stop trying them now.

Have you tried any Lush face masks or scrubs? What do you think of them?
Thanks for reading guys! x x x

Still technically December, but oh well!

So I got X2 Cream eyeshadows (£14.50e) and X1 Liquid Lipstick (£14.50e).
 
Firstly, "Lifted" Eyeshadow: compared with Benefit's LemonAid by the woman in the shop (much to my dismay!). Its nice and creamy but is too sheer with not enough initial pigment. Builds up well but I feel like it needs a good shake before every use and the applicator is only good to get it out of the bottle rather than to pat and blend it onto the lid. Too Expensive, but very cute bottle!
Overall: C-

 



Seconds! "Sophisticated" Eyeshadow: Be.A.U.Ti.Ful <3
Such a gorgeous colour! Soft, shimmery can't wait to use more of this and layer it up with soft, buttery eyeshadows like Benefit's Velvet ones etc.
Overall: B+







Lastly, "Glamorous" Liquid Lipstick: Reminds me of MAC's Nicki Minaj Lipstick for some reason :D. Creamy. Matte and HUGELY pigmented <3 much more worth the money than the eyeshadows I feel. Overall: A (but I kinda wish you got a slightly bigger bottle!)








Last few thoughts....I wouldn't mind trying the eyeliners from this collection, maybe they should release a cheek tint?? I haven't tried using the lipstick as a tint, but I wouldn't want too as it's too matte.
