I had jacked up Worldofsooziewong to get me a comforter gel and she threw in some samples for me. I wasn't expecting alot of samples and it was a lovely surprise. I haven't really explored Lush cleansers before. I thought this sample was a great first impression into trying it.
My sample pot I got given is reminiscent of the full sized pots. Black sturdy little pot that holds lots of product safely. First appearance of this cleanser is thick beige paste with herbs running through it grainy texture. This scent reminds me of freshly crushed herbs but on a mild scale.
With application I pick a bit out of the pot place it in my palm. Bits fell everywhere, kinda messy. I mix a teaspoon of water into it making it form into a workable paste. I lather this on my face. I can feel this grainy paste working its way into my skin. I like to warm a cloth to help remove this.
After trying this my skin has a healthy glow after it.Normally my skin dries out after cleansing but didn't with this one. So far Im using it in conjuction with my skincare products and haven't had any skin irritations or problems.
Overall it was kind of tricky to apply being quite dry. But I managed to make this work for me. I think this is priced fairly. I like the way my skin feels after using this. I would definitely try more cleansers from Lush.
This is one of my favorite cleansers ever! The pot that it comes in is great and it comes with a lot of product, especially because you only need a pea sized amount per use.
It lives up to all it's claims, providing a gentle cleanse and exfoliate with soothing properties for all skin types. My skin is combination oily-dry, and it works great for me!
The packaging is average, a small black screw pot which holds the cleanser roll. One of the god things about this is that if you have 5 of these black pots you get a free face mask, which is great and really promotes recycling.
The scent is also lovely, a fresh natural smell that just makes the experience better. It cleanses nicely, not over-drying my skin but still getting out all the dirt and oil that's there.
I will be buying this again as soon as I can afford it, as it is quite pricey for me but the benefits just win me over. I can definitely tell why this is a classic favorite of Lush.
