LUSH - Angels On Bare Skin cleanser REVIEW

Saturday, 4 May 2013



On a trip to Southampton at Christmas I popped in to Lush to buy some goodies for my friends (everyone loves a Lush goodie box at Christmas, let's face it).
I was about to reach the till when I remembered a product that has been causing a little bit of a stir in the beauty bloggersphere: Angels On Bare Skin cleanser.
The sales assistant looked to see if they had any in stock but they were all out, she did however give me a small sample to take home for free, how nice is that? Thank you Lush Southampton! So, off I popped home with my incredibly gorgeous smelling bag of Lush goodies.



That evening I embarked on my Lush cleansing journey to the smoothest skin ever! Now, I have problem skin and always have, so the fact that Angels On Bare Skin is made with 100% natural ingredients was already selling it to me. I tend to find that after cleansing my skin feels dry and tight, and takes on an angry red appearance.
Angels On Bare Skin's main ingredient is almond milk, famed for its brightening and toning properties. When the cleanser is mixed with water the ground almonds act as a gentle exfoliant, suitable for everyday use. Alongside almond milk is kaolin to absorb oil, and glycerine to soften and moisturise the skin. The smell is decidedly natural, for obvious reasons, with the main scents being lavender and almond. I find this really pleasant to apply, the lavender giving a soothing aroma making this the perfect night-time cleanser (though I use it morning and evening!)

To use Angels On Bare Skin simply break off a pea sized amount of the solid cleanser, and mix with a little water in your palms. You can either make a paste or a milk texture, whichever you prefer. Massage this mixture onto damp skin, rinse off, and admire!





After using Angels On Bare Skin my skin felt, soft plump and supple. There was so little trace of tightness or dryness that I was even tempted to skip my moisturiser. Fear not, I didn't, but that just gives you an idea of the moisturising properties of this amazing cleanser.
Angels doesn't break me out, and throughout the day my skin is less oily than when using other cleansers.

I give Angels On Bare Skin by Lush two massive thumbs up, and at £6.25, so does my purse!

So, have you tried Angels On bare Skin? I'd love to know everyone's thoughts.

    1. Hi Nicola, thank you so much. My blog is definitely a work in progress. I'm certainly not a technophobe, but I'm no HTML whizz either! Haha. I will of course check out your blog, I always love a new read :D

      I love this cleanser, it's the first I've used that I had to repurchase. When I don't use it I can definitely tell the difference.

    1. Hi Lucy,

      The popcorn flavoured lip scrub sounds yummy! I love LUSH Whipstick lip balm. Tastes like chocolate orange, if you like that kind of thing it's worth a try! I got mine in a set at Christmas one year, and that's how my love of all things LUSH began!

      Of course I will check out your blog too :) love reading new things

      Natalie xoxo
