First of all, I love the scent of this product -- I think Lush does a smashing job of really making their products smell wonderful, and this mask is no exception to that. It contains natural oils like avocado and evening primrose, orange, lemon, and pineapple juices, plus neroli and myrrh essential oils, so as well as being super moisturizing it smells delightful. It's designed to be helpful for dry and sensitive skin, which I definitely need during the winter months here. I find that it has a nice moisturizing effect, and doesn't dry my skin like some other face masks have a tendency to do.

There's no pussyfooting around it -- this is an expensive product. At 2100 yen for a 125 gram tub of the product, it's definitely something I have to be mindful about the frequency I use it. There's another size of the product as well which is 4000 yen for 315 grams, so if you find that you like the mask you might want to get the larger size for better value for money. As we head into winter, though, I'm really trying to nourish my skin -- and part of that involves trying to prevent dry skin issues before they arise. If that involves spending a little extra ¥¥¥ then I'll do what I have to do!
