Today Is a Facial Mask DAY---------------- Review of Lush's Mask Of Magnaminty

Hey Superfly Gorgeous ones. When I woke up today, I felt the need to do a mask.

It smells so Good :D

The mask I am doing is Mask of Magnaminty from Lush Cosmetics. It has honey, peppermint, talc and all these wonderful other ingredients to help cleanse and tone this beautiful face of mine (well, my cute face, not trying to be too vain )

Pre-Mask...Not happy

 So as you can see above, there is my bare face. (I know I dont look happy but I forgot to smile)

Here is the lovely Mask.. Isn't pretty?

Smiling and Masked up

I wet my face first, then applied the mask. I would suggest doing this only because Mask Of Magnaminty is thick so without a little water, it may be a bit difficult to apply.

I let the mask sit on my visage aka face for about 10 minutes. What I love is how great my skin felt as the mask tightened and dried.

Here I am after rinsing

 My skin after rinsing feels toned, tighter and just refreshed.

I recommend this for most skin types. If your skin is on the sensitive side, you may want to just leave the mask on for 5 minutes.


Now to go show my fresh face to the world. Have a great day loves.

BE GORGEOUS. BE WONDERFUL.BE YOU

So you are in the Zone...T-zone that is

Hey My Gorgeous Loves. Now I have covered dry and oily but what about my beauties who fall in the middle. You know who you are. You have that T-zone drama going on.. Shiny forehead, shiny nose, shiny chin and then Sahara desert everywhere else.  Combination skin is not fun because you have two things to take care off and may not be able to find the right cleansers to help you effectively.

If you have been reading my posts, you may have noticed I mention lavender A LOT. This is because it is the most wonderful sebum balancing agent there is.  Other great ingredients to look out for are calamine, glycerine, kaolin and algae. Calamine is known to help calm (hehhe) the skin from irritation and soothe. Glycerin softens and moisturizes which is great for your dry areas. Algae can provided needed nourishment and Kaolin is a wonderful clay cleanser. Clays to do help in drying out your oily areas.

Once you have cleansed, of course you know you need to tone your skin. I suggest finding a toner that has lavender. ( See I told you)  It will help balance your moisture needs.

After toning, finding the right moisturizer. Lavender , olive oil, glycerin will work again.

Giving your skin balance and moisture that is so needs.

Also, I will mention.. doing a facial mask once a week can also help get your skin to where you want it to be. Masks that have clay base, Kaolin, talc, calamine are fabulous masks bases to help dry those oily areas and moisturize your sahara ones.

I do hope these skin care posts have helped.

BE GORGEOUS. BE WONDERFUL. BE YOU.
