Lush Angels On Bare Skin ~ cleanser/scrub for all skin types

Ok, If there is one thing that I use to scrub/clean my face apart from normal face wash then it is this,,it will I guess "always" be this unless something even better comes out or I come to know about it :)

What Lush has to say about " Angels On Bare Skin"

Angelic and medieval cleansing wash with rose and lavender. Angels on Bare Skin is the Lush version of an expensive medieval skincare recipe. Rare, precious essential oils were first brought to Europe by the crusaders who encountered Arabian medicine. They were immediately banned by the church because their ability to alter states of mind was considered the devil's work! But the final result was Cosmetics 1, Church 0. Rose oil and lavender oil were discovered to do wonderful things for the skin, too. Almost a thousand years later you'd be hard pressed to find a better all round cleanser and exfoliator than Angels.


How to use it :

Dampen your face with warm water. Place a pea sized chunk in the palm of your hand and add water to create a paste. Apply to your face using small, circular motions. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry. For rest results follow with the LUSH toner and moisturizer that best suit your skin type.
Ingredients :
  • Ground Almonds (Prunus dulcis),
  •  
  • Glycerine,
  •  
  • Kaolin,
  • Water (Aqua),
  •  
  • Lavender Oil (Lavandula hybrida),
  •  
  • Rose Absolute (Rosa centifolia),
  •  
  • Chamomile Blue Oil (Matricaria Chamomilla),
  •  
  • Tagetes Oil (Tagetes minuta),
  •  
  • Benzoin Resinoid (Styrax tonkinensis pierre),
  •  
  • Lavender Flowers (Lavendula hybrida),
  •  
  • *Limonene,
  •  
  • *Linalool
    What it has done for me :
    I have a slightly sensitive skin and had acne problem for around 2 years but now thanks to THIS I am acne free now,, so I really think ten times before buying any cosmetic for my face as I do not want to make any mistake for my skin at this point in my life. 
    Anything that has the world Angel associated with it catches my fancy in a second and same happened with this cleanser,,I did lil research before buying it and I am glad I did. It really works wonder for my skin and after using it I feel like my face is squeaky clean, not even a single trace of dirt remains on my face. 
    It comes in a small tub and seeing it your first impression can be quite ,,ummm,,,,blahhh!! yep this is what I did but since its Lush I had faith in it.

    Only a small amount (as seen in the pic) is required to clean your face and neck at a time. You really have to squish the product in your palm and make a paste with water to apply it on the face. Massage in circular motions all over your face and neck to get optimum results.
    Do not use it extremely close to the eyes.
    Ok now this one not only cleanses my face very well but also moisturize it nicely. I have never experienced any strecthy feeling on my face after applying this even in winters. This has never caused any acne on my face and I give all my love  to it for not doing that.
    I use it every other day , but depending on your skin type you can use it daily too. The fragrance it has is like you are smelling herbs in the jungle :D yup but it disappears fast as soon as you wash it off with water. 
    Always store this one in a cool and dry place and screw the lid tightly after using it.
    After using this you can tone your face and then moisturize it with your normal moisturizer. I skip the toner part here but yes I do use my moisturizer for sure.
    Recommendation : yes please for everyone,,for girls having slight acne issue you can try it too :)
    Personally speaking when I had Acne on my face only this thing saved me and worked wonders ,,I swear by it,,  check it out HERE ,,

what Lush has to say about it :)


A soap that is bursting with colour and a sweet fruity smell. One of our Christmas bestsellers that returns year after year, by popular demand. A huge golden man on the moon sits atop this soap and wraps around a huge pink block of soap, with more decorations than a Christmas tree. With random blocks of colours, silver glitter, gold glitter, iridescent glitter and a lovely gold lustre, you never know just what your slice is going to look like. But what you do know is that you’ll get a soap that is universally appealing, with sweet orange essential oil, tangerine oil and a fruity fragrance. It brings a little bit of summer sunshine into the winter and makes you feel like you’ve been visited by angels. If you want a stunning centrepiece to your family Christmas, then why not phone us to ask about the price of a whole block.

My take on Angel's Delight Soap

m in luv with this, the aroma, the appearance all is so festive, so fruity , so sweet...
This soap as the above description states is not going to look like in the picture shown on the website.
Basically lush makes a huge block of soap and then cuts them into desired quantity. So, everyone gets a different looking soap block .
Mine is golden and navy in color and has golden glitter on its rough end which looks fab..
The fragrance is definitely fruity/orange but sweet too,,
even if you keep it in a room it fills the room with its fragrance which i love,,,,, :)
This soap doesn't lathers much like many of lush products  but cleanses  skin very well for sure.
and it lasts really really long..


Also since lush soaps are big n chunky thus one must cut it into pieces and then use it, it lasts long this way :)
To cut a lush soap all you have to do is take a sharp knife, dip it into hot water and then place it on the top of the soap and cut it into desired length and width. I normally cut a 100g soap into 3 pieces. 
Since the knife blade is warm it helps in slicing the soap easily.
Also store the rest of the pieces in a normal container, this way it stays more fresh.
