LUSH Angels On Bare Skin Cleanser review

-♥-

When I was in my teens my skin varied I use to have weeks when I would have randomly have loads of spots and then next none. I had a spell though when my skin completely cleared up and wasn't too dry or too oily, however recently for past year or so my skins condition has been changing all the time. From stopping using face wash products I began slowly buying different ones in hope of trying to clear my skin up and none did the trick.

When I was shopping with my friend the other week I stumbled across Lush I had never properly been in it to buy anything, people had bought me the shower and bath bombs sets but I had never bought anything myself. So I found myself explaining to the sale assistant that my face felt really grainy and wasn't smooth as well as having recurring spots that just wouldn't go away. Well she advised me on this little beauty:

Ingredients taken from Lush's Website:

Ground Almonds, Glycerine, Kaolin, Water, Lavender Oil, Rose Absolute, Chamomile Blue Oil, Tagetes Oil, Benzoin Resinoid, Lavender Flowers, *Limonene, *Linalool

*occurs naturally in essential oils

Angels on Bare skin fresh facial cleanser is my Savior.  The tub is £6 and it apparently lasts for 3 months, I think I will definitely use it up before 3 months. As above states it has Ground Almonds in it which are effectively used to gently exfoliate the skin and improve skin tone and colour. The product also features Lavender which is an aid to heal damage skin. I really like the fact that on the Lush website it fully details the ingredients and shows how naturally made the products are.

At first the way this face wash works is very strange. It is a good job the woman in the shop actually showed me. 

You get a small pea size of product which in these photographs I took a little bit more just so I could show the full effects of the product. Once picking up the blob lets call it you put it in your hand and dab water (I use hot) over the product and squash it in your hand to break the blob up and make a milky liquid in your hand. As Lush's website explains 'The ground almonds in this product release their goodness and turn to an almond milk on your hand when you add water.' What I like is you can see the actual seeds in once the product is broken up.

When the product is broken up before doing this you should wet your face prior to the squashing of the product. You then rub it in your skin, I try to use circular motions and massage it in. Here is a few photographs of the product on my face as you can see it is grainy.

After using the product my skin feels and looks loads better. It has been able to get those pest of black heads to come out making my whole face look more healthier and soft. I have been using it twice a day and seems to have done quite a good job of getting rid of my grainy forehead and making it smoother.  

 

So I have been using this product for over 2 weeks now and really happy with the outcome, my skin still feels soft and no noticeable spots have appeared. I am so happy with this product and think I will definitely repurchase it when I finish the tub.

Even thought I really like this product and would most likely buy this again after using this tub up I can only fault two things about it. 

1) As the product needs to be placed in your hands first to make the liquid milk formula this process at times could be considered time consuming. If I am in a rush I would just use one of the other face washes I have but if I do have time I think this product is worth the time as the way your skin feels after wards is so soft and smooth.

 

2) The other disappointing factor is that this product isn't ideal to be worked alone when taking make up off. After or prior using this product I would recommend either using face wipes or other products you usually use to take make up off properly. 

Have you use this product? If you have what are your thoughts on it? Is there any other Lush products I should be trying let me know. I love trying new products!
