I was introduced to this mask many years ago. It is one of the first masks I used that didn't hurt or react with my skin.
It looks like porridge so not all sexy! Keep it stored in the fridge in the original wee pot it comes in. Place all over your face and giggle at the sight you look! It smells fresh not overly sweet like banana. I put it on and leave it to sort of dry. If you leave it to dry fully the oat bits fall off and can get messy.
I like to use it when my skin is really dry, it will have a red irritated look. After leaving this on for awhile you can feel your skin calm down. When you wash it off your face it is left feeling smooth and moisture rich as well.
I've tried quite a few of the masks from Lush. This is definitely one of my favourites. My skin is dry and sensitive so this suits me perfectly.
First off it looks like porridge, there is nothing pretty about it. It smells really good though! I like to use a brush to apply my masks but you can't do that with this.....you just have to kind of smush it all over your face lol. I recommend doing it over the bathroom sink as bits fall off.
I let this sit while I literally lay down in fear of it getting everywhere. After 30 minutes it's time to wash off. Ugh this is the next messy part....I recommend jumping in the shower to wash it off. Super easy and less messy.
After use my skin looks amazing! It is super soft to the touch and my makeup applies like a dream. This is so good for dry skin! Remember to keep your pot in the fridge to keep it fresh. Highly recommend Oatifix!
