If you read
my last post you will know I recently bought a few things in Lush. I have
already posted about the Love Lettuce fresh facemask (read post here) but today
I will be sharing with you another product I bought that day.
LUSH’s Ultrabland cleanser
is something I have wanted to try for a while, but just haven’t got around to
it. After a quick demonstration on my hand by a lovely sales assistant I
happily picked up the large 100g tub to take home with me. Ultrabland is a soft
and oily cleansing cream made from almond oil, rose water, beeswax and honey
and it is suitable for all types. It claims to soften and thoroughly clean the
skin and after using this for almost 2 weeks I can safely say it delivers on
those claims!

I have to be
honest though, when I first used this product on my face I wasn't that impressed, it doesn't have the
greatest smell (it’s not an overpowering smell, it just isn't that pleasant)
and the texture of it on my skin was unlike anything I had experienced before. But
after using it a few more times I became a lot more comfortable with its
texture and I have well and truly fallen in love.
I apply it
over dry skin and massage into the face to lift off any make-up I'm wearing, it
is also gentle enough to massage over the eyes and it does manage to remove my
mascara which is quite impressive. I then add some water to my hands and
continue to massage into the face; there is literally no chance of you removing
any of the product with just your hands and water as it is so oily and seems to
cling to your skin. After a couple of minutes I take a damp muslin
cloth and remove the cleanser from my skin.
Some of the
oil from the cleanser does seem to get absorbed into the skin, but this is not
a bad thing and doesn't clog up my skin in any way. Instead it leaves my skin
feeling soft and well nourished which is everything I could want from a
cleanser.
As with most
Lush products, there is a 4 week shelf life due to the fresh ingredients and a
little really does go a long way with this cleanser. I would definitely
purchase this cleanser again although next time I will probably go for the
smaller 45g pot as I’m already 2 weeks in and I've barely made a dent in the
top so I doubt I’m gonna reach the bottom before it expires.
You can
purchase Ultrabland from any LUSH store for £6.75 for 45g or £10.75 for 100g or
you can purchase online.
Have you
tried LUSH’s Ultrabland cleanser before? Do you have any other LUSH products to
recommend? Let me know in the comments below…
