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.

Lush Cupcake Face Mask
Invented with teenage skin in mind
Cupcake is our one Fresh Face Mask that was created for a bit of fun. At the time, our inventor’s daughter was a young girl having slumber parties with her girlfriends every weekend, so he whipped up a chocolate mint mask for young, oily skin (officially solidifying him as the coolest dad ever). If you suffer from oily or spotty skin, slather it in this cocoa concoction. With spearmint oil to cool, vanilla absolute to calm redness and Rhassoul mud to deeply cleanse- Cupcake is a sweet savior for young faces. Smothering yourself in chocolate for clearer skin? Every teenage girl’s dream. .

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.
Tips: These masks have I think a 3 week shelf life, but I always use them for much longer than that otherwise you waste alot and they're still fine! If the mask dries up a bit just add a tiny amount of water and mix with your fingers and then apply. I also find only leaving the mask on for a few minutes not 10 works better otherwise the flaking doesn't feel very nice.
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!
Tips: Try it out!
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.
Tips: Perhaps not the most gentle lush mask for sensitive skin.
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 :)
Tips: Does going to the Newmarket store count as a tip? I've always had great customer service at Lush stores both here and in Oz, but the girls working at Newmarket the day I went in were so amazing and knowledgeable!
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.
Tips: Try not to eat it!
I had to try out this mask after seeing all the great reviews on here and hearing incredible things from a friend. To sum up my reaction in one word - WOW!
I am normally a huge fan of anything from Lush, but at the moment this one takes the cake. The mask is from their Fresh range, which means it's made with all natural and fresh ingredients, expires sooner, and is kept in the iced area of the store. I personally love the idea of a product so fresh, even if it does put a little pressure on in terms of using it up!
The scent is AMAZING - this mask actually smells like a rich chocolate cupcake! What I love about this scent, however, it that it doesn't overwhelm you with rich chocolatey-ness like other masks have done (eg the Freeman Chocolate and Strawberry mask). There is the perfect amount of mint in this mask as well to balance it out with some freshness.
Cupcake comes in the typical black, recycled, screw top Lush container. It's texture is very thick, and the product is a dark brown chocolately colour. It applies easily to your skin, and dries within 10-15 minutes. I found no tightness or irritation on my skin after use, which was great because my skin is quite sensitive.
I absolutely noticed results from this mask. I use it in the evenings before going to bed, and wake up with calmer skin and fewer breakouts. Definitely works! Now, if only this came as a daily cleanser...
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.
Tips: Put it in the freezer when you aren't using it. It makes it last longer, just cut junks or scoop out what you need, let it warm up a little and apply.
Also collect the black pots and take them in for a free face mask!
