Lush Cupcake Face Mask

The title says it all really! But let me tell you why I don't like it.

The mask comes in the usual small tub, and even though its 60g it goes a long way because it's quite thick. The mask is chocolate brown and looks like, well, cupcake mix! But it's a lot thicker than cupcake mix, and I find it quite hard to apply. I started putting a bit of water with it to mix it through, and then applying it, as well as applying it to a wet face.

Inside the mask is some gritty goodness, I'm not entirely sure what, maybe almonds? It smells like peppermint chocolate but the smell is about the only thing I like about it. The mask goes on and dries fine. I hate removing it, I don't know why but for some reason this mask from Lush is no beuno.

This also did nothing for my skin - it made it slightly softer but it did nothing for breakouts or anything. So I'm not impressed, and I won't be buying it again.

smells amazing (like the cadbury mint chocolate drinking chocolate) it's has the finest granules that exfoliate without being too harsh. It reduced my breakouts a lot.

I originally bought this for my little brother who was going through an teenage-oily-skin-breakout phase, but found my skin was starting to get a bit oily. I am so glad my brother barely ever uses this now, because I absolutely positively love this. The chocolate smell is gorgeous, and my fiancé always comments (nicely) on how I smell after I've washed it off. It seems to soak up the extra oil without drying out your face and leaves it feeling super soft and beautiful. I mix this mask with the Love Lettuce, putting the Cupcake on my oiliest parts, so I get a mix of the oil soaking Cupcake and the more exfoliating Love Lettuce, leaving my skin absolutely to die for.

I am a teenager, so this is fantastic for me. I Have oily, combination skin and this helps lessen the amount of oil... Quite pricy considering one tub expires after 2 weeks, but if you have 5 tubs you can get one for free! smells amazing though, and really leaves your skin soft and supple.

This is the first ever Lush product I ever used, while I no longer use this mask because I've moved onto a better suited one my skin seemed to actually clear up alot while using this! also my skin was less red and I felt clean and ready for the next step in my skincare routine. The smell is so yummy which was what actually made me start using this, (along with the fact is is armed for young oily skin)but the only thing is you can't leave it on for really long because it starts to get quite flaky. I got so many uses out of it so the price us definitely very good for what you get out of it! I would definitely recommend this to anyone that whats to feel like they're in a spa and have acne prone oily skin.

I used this mask after hearing rave reviews about the lush face masks - boy was I wrong! I spent the next week in hiding as my skin had broken out in places it never breaks out in! Had massive pimples everywhere, would not recommend to ladies with sensitive skin!

I love this face mask! I got this as I use a mask 2-3 times a week, depending on what my skin needs. I use this one every weekend. Have been for about four months now. It smells GREAT! My step daughter likes to sniff my face every time I have it on and she cannot wait till she is a teen to use this. (Eeeek please NO).

It is such an amazing face mask and my skin is so much clearer after using this. I hardly breakout at all!

Imagine smearing yourself in rich chocolate with a hint of mint....mmmmm. This mask smells divine and is perfect for a calorie free chocolate treat. The clays seemed to help with my oily combination skin, with the mint leaving my skin fresh.

I was lucky enough to receive a voucher for Lush along with a tub of my all time favourite Lush product- Lemony Flutter as a gift from my little brother for Christmas. As I usually just order off their website I'd put off using my voucher until I had a free day last week and decided to take a trip to the Newmarket store for a day out and Cupcake Face Mask was one of my purchases. As my skin has been a bit unpredictable and oily the past six months from medications, I decided this mask sounded like it would be fantastic for my skin and I'm soooo glad I purchased it! It smells amazing, when it dries the scent reminds me of lolly slice which happens to be one of my favourite childhood treats!! It instantly feels soothing as it's cool from being kept in the fridge and the mint in it gives a tingling feeling which feels like it gets the blood flowing through my skin properly. I really can't fault this stuff aside of maybe the price and the short expiration period. I will have no problem at all using it up but it won't be a monthly purchase for me, I will buy it as a treat every now and then though :)

I love how this product was formulated for my exact skin type (oily teenage skin). I'm always sceptical when buying from Lush as they're quite pricey but I was desperate, and they gave me a free sample of it! I love the sample so much that I got the full size. It has such an amazing scent and consistency. I feel like this made my pores a lot smaller and cleared up my skin really well, I just feel like it cleans my skin really well, It's slightly exfoliating so I like to jump in the shower after I've put it on and rub it with warm water so it gets deep into my pores.
