Due to the holidays that passed, I recently decided to play the part of doting wife and bought a few unconventional treats for my husband in hopes of it secretly benefiting me ;)
I popped into Lush in Mirdif City Center and bought a few things, first of which was the Brazened Honey. It was a facial scrub that when left on the face to dry can act as a mask as well. I always believed that a Scrub should do just what it's name suggests; SCRUB. Therefore I made a specific request to the wonderful ladies at Lush to recommend something whose mixture should be more abrasive and less "soapy" and "bubbly''.
The first few times I used this scrub I was impressed with the results, but the longer I used it the less impressive the results were. It was just as I requested, abrasive enough and made my face feel tingly when left on to dry. I guess the proof that it did work was my face felt more moisturized throughout the day but then again, that meant that my face has become unusually oily whenever I had makeup on, and no amount of retouching with a face powder solved my dilemma.
I would however, still recommend it to those who want a good face scrub that is organically made and PETA approved. I do love knowing that the stuff I put on my face has a clear expiry date.
