A Cupcake Review



I won a lush raffle on twitter, & my prize was cupcake! I thought id do a mini review on it, I'm saying mini because there's not much to say! Ive used it twice so far so il tell you what I think so far :) So what is it? Its a face mask, a FRESH face mask. Which means it only lasts 3 weeks, you have to keep them in the fridge so they don't go 'off' that's how fresh they are! I have purchased Oatafix from lush, + even tho it was brilliant on my skin, I couldn't stand the smell, it actually made me gag! so I only used it once.
This is what cupcake looks like....


.... Look's like chocolate ice cream doesn't it? it smells like chocolate too, but not a pleasant chocolaty smell, (to me anyway) the smell is quite off putting for me! I don't know weather its because the mask was left out of a fridge too long whilst in the post..
It's very thick, like most lush masks. it actually felt like I was putting ice cream or mud on my face! it is very refreshing nether the less. I know its very tempting to eat, as it looks like chocolate moose, but please don't :) I got a bit on my lip and it tasted awful, anyway its not edible ;)
If you notice on my last FOTD i had some spots come up around my mouth, (due to the time of the month) sorry guys if your reading this! haha! I sometimes get them as you do... anyway I used cupcake and they went.. so quite pleased with cupcake :) just the smell is making me think twice. Il smell a new one in lush next time I go and see if its the same.
I'm hoping to get Catastrophe Cosmetic next time, it smells like blueberries! I'm excited to try that. Over all I give cupcake a 3/5 of lushness :)
Have a nice Day!

This was the first Lush Face Mask I tried, and it very nearly put me off them for life!
The smell of mine was terrible, and I couldn't even think about putting it on my face! I kept it in the fridge until it's expiry date, hoping that it might get better, but everytime I opened the lid it made me feel sick :(

The next time I went in I bought the Love Lettuce one and I lovedddd it :)

I really like Lush face masks, I haven't tried this one yet. I've seen a few good reviews- I will have to give it a whirl. x

I'm glad its worked for you huni, to be honest I hate this face-mask im not a happy bunny I tried it and it smells aweful and didnt really do anything for my face either. I left it on for a couple of hours but had to wash my face because every-time I moved Id smell it.

I might try a different Lush face mask tho, but have to try smell it in store lol x
