LUSH- FRESH face mask, "The Sacred Truth"

Wait, what?  Has it been almost 2 years since I wrote on this??  Yes, sadly- I have been MIA on my blog.  BUT my new year resolution is to get this going again.  (I will do another post to explain what I have been up to for the past 2 years later.)

But anyways.. what a better way to restart the blog then with a post about LUSH!!!  Are you a lush fanatic?!? I am!  Hands down.  I am what you would call a "granola mom."  I love anything natural and organic.  Why?  Because I believe that our bodies only deserve the best!  I think my "tree hugger" side came out more when I had my babies.  As parents, we always want the best for our kids.. hence, becoming a "granola mom." Kinda.  LOL

So what is LUSH?  Lush produces soaps, shampoos, shower gels, lotions, moisturizers, scrubs, masks and other cosmetics for the face, hair, and body using VEGETARIAN recipes.  They also use as little packaging as possible or packaging that is recycled/recyclable.

I love their "Cup o Coffee" face mask to use every other day in the morning to give my skin a refreshing boost!  If you are on the fence about trying a mask from Lush (because they are pretty pricey), I would highly suggest starting off with this.  It is friendly on the wallet and it leaves your skin feeling amazing.  Plus, you can use it on your body as well.  Oh, and it is made with coffee.  Coffee.  Yup, need I say more?! Coffee lover in the house!!  If you have sensitive skin, use it one or twice a week.

Anyways, like I said.  I tried their FRESH face mask for the first time tonite.  Let's pause a moment to say "THANK YOU" to the mad scientists you created these amazing products!  All of their fresh face masks are made with fresh fruit, vegetables, butters, clays and the world’s finest essential oils- so they need to be refrigerated and only have a shelf life of 3 weeks.  So before you buy it, check the expiration date.  Since there a many different face masks to choose from I asked the sales associate for something to help with my wrinkles (yes, Asians get wrinkles).  She recommended "The Sacred Truth."

Taken from LUSH website: "Can you handle the truth? The truth is, your skin needs more regular maintenance and care as you get older. As you age, your dermis is thinning, losing its elasticity and ability to retain moisture, which can make the skin appear dull or sallow. Don’t fret! Taking care is easy thanks to this nutrient-packed mask. The Sacred Truth contains a powerful combination of rich, softening ingredients like linseed, eggs and shea butter to deeply moisturize and nutritious wheat grass, papaya, green tea and ginseng root to restore essential vitamins and brighten skin."


(Kailea saw me taking a selfie, so she wanted "IN" on the action!  Gotta love my mini!)

Let me say, this was absolutely amazing on my face.  It does not dry or harden on your face like most face masks do.  It stays the same creamy consistency.  The green tea gives it a calming, herbal scent and I loved the way it made my skin feel after.  It felt really, really soft.  Since it was my first time using this, I can't say that it made my wrinkles go away.  Maybe after a few uses? I mean, one can only hope right? LOL  However, my skin did look "refreshed" and have a "glowing" look after.  I can see this being a regular addition to my nighttime regimen.  Well, maybe 2 or 3 times a week.  The product is small, so you can probably get 5-6 uses out of it.  But remember the fresh face masks are only good for up to 3 weeks!

For $7.95, I highly recommend treating your face to LUSH's fresh face mask, "The Sacred Truth."

Oh yea, MAHALO Jordan for making it! LOL
