Lush Catastrophe Cosmetic Face Mask

While my skin isn't really In the catastrophe bracket i have started getting annoying little pimples around my chin and since changing my skin care regime around a bit my normally very dry skin is behaving itself and its nearly normal still a little dry but much better. But I do love the ingredients that are in this and ultimately made me buy it.

Blueberries, they are full of antioxidants and they smell good (and taste good) chamomile, yes let me sit down and relax while I have a face mask on. Irish moss I love eating it, not sure about skin but I'm sure if it tastes good it will smell good.

This is a 'fresh' face mask so it does need to be kept in the fridge also the fresh masks don't have a very long shelf life this one has 21 days so I am using it twice weekly just so I'm not wasting it.

The colour is a mix of grey and blue with big chunks of blueberry In it. It's quite thick and hard to apply its almost like a putty. If you held it in your hand and rolled it into a ball it would easily hold its shape.

Once I get this spread over my face I sit down and relax, the smell of this is beautiful it almost has a bit of a floral scent to it. I leave it on for 20 minutes and then wash it off, it was quite dry and most of it just fell off into the sink making the rest easy to wash off.

Once dried My skin has that 'pregnancy glow' look to it. It's even, soft, and looks amazing. It hasn't dried my skin out or left me with more breakouts. Just healthy looking skin. I really like this face mask and will buy again

The name is so fitting. My skin was horribly dry and spotty my friend came up for a girls weekend with two pots of the "catastrophe" we sat in the spa for 20 mins with out face masks on. They reduced the redness and moisturised our skin. Relatively cheap. Easy to apply and get 2-3 uses out of each pot. I would recommend this as a gift as they smell beautiful, work really well on different skin types

Lush make the best face masks and I have tested them all out of course! The Catastrophe Cosmetic mask is the best smelling mask I have tried, it leaves the skin feeling so refreshed and soothed. The blueberries in it make this mask complete. So if you are looking for a good pamper night mask that leaves your skin feeling smooth - look no further!

Every once and awhile I like to treat myself to a fresh Lush Face Mask to pamper my skin. I was recommended Catastrophe Cosmetic by a friend who loved it and now so do I!

The first thing you notice when you open the tub is the lovely pastel blue colour of the mask, which is dotted with bits of real, fresh blueberry. The second thing you notice is the smell! Fresh, fruity, and you guessed it - blueberries! The mask smells delicious both in the tub and on your face, making the entire experience of using it delightful!

As the mask is fresh, you have to keep it chilled. This means that when you put it on, it provides instant, cooling relief. The blueberry bits make it a little bit difficult to smooth on evenly, but once the mask is on it feels fantastic!

It has managed to calm my skin even at its most angry, and always leaves it feeling smooth, soft and glowing. This is the perfect, gentle face mask for problem skin!

I got this for free as I took back 5 empty clean pots (the loyalty scheme they run), and I am definitely not disappointed! This is super soothing for sensitive skin, rich in antioxidants. It leaves your skin smooth and takes away redness. However I do find it a little drying so I moisturise after use. 5 mins is definitely all you need to get the benefits of this fresh facial mask, and it isn't stubborn to wash off like other face masks! Great little addition to my skin care routine. The smell of the product is not over powering, with hints of herbs and blueberries. The texture is soft with bits of real blueberries, so its best to keep it in the fridge.

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.

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 :)

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.

This mask has a mud-mask like quality, and smells like citrus and blueberries. Once on, you can feel it tighten as it dries and works its magic. Great for oily skin and blackheads as it draws it right out of the skin.

I love trying out face masks, and lush Catastrophe Cosmetic Face Mask has such a yummy look that I knew it was going to be fun. I invited my hubby to try it as well and we had an unplanned"Halloween" party, both of us looking like smurfs, and it was so nice... The mask has a wonderfully fruity smell to it and you can see the actual pieces of blueberry as you spread the mask all over you face. Although very easy to spread, the mask has a scrub feeling to it and acts as a relaxing massage while the strong fresh fragrance fills your lungs. It dries up pretty fast and stays in place without falling apart or cracking with a surprisingly uniform texture. Your skin will feel really dry very quickly - think Sahara desert -but after you remove the mask with warm water you start feeling the almond oil still working to make your skin feel soft, maybe not so moist as one could expect... The Catastrophe Cosmetic Face Mask was not a Catastrophe at all. The smurf colour of the mask made me smile and it does seem to work well on the skin making it feel smooth and tight. Overall a good pleasant product.
