I had first tried on this mask a few weeks back when i had bought this item, at the time my skin was feeling quite sensitive and sore around my under eye area which i guess it was due to the change of weather or that i was just being a bit too harsh while exfoliating... The cooling sensation made my skin feel like it was burning..(I guess its from over exfoliating which exposed my skin a bit too much..oops!) But as crazy as i sound i still kept the mask on.

About a week later my skin seemed to have recovered, so i thought i'll give myself a Lush Mask pampering.
Luckily this time my face wasn't burning although the peppermint effect can still feel a bit over powering.
I was quite surprised with the effects of this mask it had on my skin, after each time my skin truly looked revived, felt Smoother, looked Brighter, felt Supple, Refreshed and my spot which i had on my chin for aggggggess looked less red!

 If you are familiar with HK, you may notice that everywhere you go the air conditioner is turned UP! Full blast.. No matter if its Spring, Summer , Autumn or winter (Full blast all day. Everyday!).

The effects of the AC can be really drying on my skin, so these are the products which i have been using to help maintain the moisture in my skin:

Make-up:



1. Mineralize-Moisture-SPF15 Foundation . Fix +
I had only recently started using these products, however i can tell a significant change.

Usually by the end of the office day i can feel the tightness of my skin around my cheek area, i believe it was due to the reason that the AC was sucking my skin dry of what little left of moisture there was..
Prior to using M.A.C, I did use a BB cream which is infused with moisturizing ingredients.. However it wasn't as great of an impact. (I do believe there was some drugstore product which are better then luxury)

After using these two M.A.C combo.. I don't think i can go back to using the BB cream.

2. Prep-Prime-CC-Colour-Correcting-SPF-30
Orrrr this could've been the reason why my skin had been feeling more supple (in a non greasy way), in combination with the products i had mentioned above.

3. Sugar tulip tinted lip treatment sunscreen spf-15 . Sugar lip treatment advanced therapy
MOST MOISURISING LIP BALM EVER. Seriously. Very rich and long lasting.
I bought a tinted pink and a translucent balm from Fresh, these where my first ever purchase from the brand (as well as the lychee body cream which wasn't as good as i thought) I'm seriously in love!

The scent reminds of the Refreshers sweets in England which is quite nostalgic to me (Do anyone remembers these sweets!?)
One of my pet peeves are when my lips are so dry and i have nothing to use to moisturise them.. so i would start licking my lips which makes them even more dry… These balms keeps my lips well conditioned for long periods therefore a well deserved spot on my winter essentials.


What are your Winter must have?


With love,
