Catastrophe Cosmetic was recommended to me by the girls at lush as I get break outs. It comes in a cute little pot and looks and smells delicious - like blueberries!! It doesn't last long as its only 75g so I only use it once a week as it is a little pricey. It has a nice texture on the face, feels like clay and actual pieces of blueberries! its divine! And my skin feels so calm and soft after washing off. I would love to use it twice a week but it just wouldn't last :( but I am so happy with this face mask it calms my breakouts and makes my skin feel lovely :)

Tips: Read the expiry date! mine only lasted 3 weeks from when I bought it! but if it looks and smells ok its fine to use :) oh and keep in the fridge!
I have been watching the forums mention Lushes products which sparked up my curiousity about their products. Lush is an animal cruelty free brand . Most of the contents inside of it are sourced from natural ingredients.
Packaging comes in this small tub. Reminds me of the size of a pottle of youghurt. Maybe slightly bigger than that. The black little containers were easy to open. They sealed well when closed too. They suggest that you refridgerate this product to keep it fresh.
Consistency of this mask is reminds me of a clay mask with shards of blueberry scattered through it. It's a smooth feeling clay. Now the smell of my mask smelled like chamomile essential oil. I did not have a blueberry scent smell at all. I cleaned my face beforehand, put this mask on. It settled on my face and dried out. As it dried bits of clay was falling off my face like snow flakes. It was quite messy.
My results were smooth clear skin. Felt so hydrated from it. The smell didn't bother me. Was the mess that was annoying. Other than that, was a really good product. I'm not sure about price as I brought it from a marketplace. Definately want to buy more Lush products.
Wow this stuff is amazing. I love how it is fresh and feels really cool when you put it on (has to be stored in the fridge). It feels really nice, not too tight as some masks can be. Only downside to this is that it has a short shelf (fridge) life so if you don't get to use it all, its recommended that it be thrown away.
Tips: I found the first time it made my skin itch and thought I was allergic to some ingredients. So the second time I sprayed Lush Tea Tree Spray onto a cotton pad and wiped all over, which removed any residue left over from the mask and didn't itch this time. Make sure you apply a nice moisturiser. You can use the spray on any of these types of masks or cleansers as recommended on the back of the spray bottle.
I cannot rate this face mask high enough! It smells so gorgeous, and feels even better on your face. At $18.90 I think it is very reasonably priced, considering it goes a long way - plus if you save your LUSH pottles (like the one this one comes in) and bring 5 into the store, they give you a face mask for free!
Tips: If you have sensitive skin, once the product has reached its best before, you can use the mask on other parts of your body that are less sensitive, such as your shoulders or chest.
Absolutely amazing! A little goes a long way, smells gorgeous, feels gorgeous and leaves the skin feeling great. Nice refreshing, cool feeling. Beautiful!
Tips: Remember to keep the mask in the fridge.
Went and bought this after reading the reviews on BR. Only 3 words to describe it A-MAZ-ING! You keep it in the fridge then slather it on as a wet face pack. It dries to a degree, but not really "cakey". It feels spectacular. As it has been really hot lately the coolness of this mask is really calming and your skin feels fresh and alive afterwards. Wash off with a hot flannel.
Tips: As it is fresh it has a two week life span although the girl in the Lush shop said it will probably be ok for another week after that. The pottle isn't huge but a little bit goes a long way so i'd say you'd need to use it twice a week for 3 weeks to fully use it. So just don't put it in the fridge and forget about it.
Funnily enough I'm writing this review with this on my face! I love this mask - smells amazing and so nice to put on from the fridge, especially in summer or a hot day. I find this is really good at getting my skin to calm down if it's freaking out about something (long-haul flights, for example) and is really good for taking some of the redness out of any blemishes I might have. Highly recommended!
This fresh face mask is divine! Love this smell of it and it's texture. I find it is really cooling and soothing to the skin. I tend to use it when I have bad acne and need something to give my skin a bit of a pick me up. Leaves my skin feeling really soft and smooth as well as taking away any redness I may have had
Tips: Keep it in the fridge, feels a lot better on the face when you take it straight from the fridge!
Use this at least once a week. Because it is so natural I trust it 100% if my skin is a bit broken out. Its so gentle and calming but also flushes out my pores. I always notice a huge difference in my skin/acne after using this. Totally recommended, especially for senstive/acne prone skin.
Tips: Apply with a flat foundation brush for even coverage and to keep your hands clean!
I have sensitive but acne prone skin too and find a lot of acne specific things agitate my skin and just make it worse. this product clears it up with the anti-oxidants and soothes it as well. I think it's great for any one. the smell is amazing too.
Tips: Freeze it. Put it in the freezer and just scoop or cut chucks when needed. It makes the product last far longer and you don't have wastage or have to worry about it's short expiry.
