How to use

Cleanse your face and pat dry. Smooth a good dollop of Fresh Face Mask over your entire face, making sure to avoid the eyes and mouth. Leave the mask on for about ten minutes (do not let the mask dry completely). Now is a good time to read the latest LUSH Times…And finally, wash off with warm water and follow with your favorite toner and moisturizer.

I have uber sensitive skin that is affected by anything and everything from food to climate, skin products, change in water, and hormonal cycle. So many skin products that people swear by have caused break outs that I've pretty much settled on the few products that do actually work on me. I not only get acne in my thirties, but also red blotches and general roughness.

I tried BB Seaweed expecting it to either cause the usual break out or be too gentle to have any effect. Boy was I wrong! I generally credit any claim of immediate improvements to a placebo effect, but BB Seaweed really smoothed out my skin and reduced redness with one application.

The instruction said to leave the mask on for about ten minutes, but to not let it completely dry. My skin ate up the moisture and the mask was almost completely dry within ten minutes, but when I washed it off, my skin was noticeably smoother, and didn't have any irritation. For the first time, I even contemplated going out without makeup.

I used it yesterday evening, and after 24 hours my skin remains smooth and I notice a more even skin tone.

As some have mentioned, it is a bit clumpy and the little pieces of seaweed make it somewhat difficult to apply a thin, even layer, but I don't think this affects the results.

If you have sensitive skin that either (or both) doesn't respond to skin products or is easily irritated, give BB Seaweed a try. I'm assuming it probably won't have the same effect on everyone, but considering the sensitivity of my skin, it seems like a pretty safe bet.

I purchased this product because the lady at the store said it would be great for my combination skin (Oily, Dry, and Sensitive) this product was extremely drying on my skin. I didn't want it and didn't want to throw it away so I gave it to my friend. After using this product, her skin was GLOWING!! She has typical skin, gets a breakout here and there, her skin is sensitive. I would recommend this to someone who rarely breaks out with not oily skin that is sensitive. This was NOT the face mask for me, but it worked wonders on my friend. Now, I just have to find a good face mask for me!!

    Comments about BB Seaweed fresh face mask:

    I LOVE BB Seaweed. I've only used it twice and I'm already in love. It doesn't dry out my face or make it too oily. I have very sensitive skin and a fair complexion, so my face gets red easily and the mask helps even out my skin tone a bit. It didn't irritate my skin whatsoever. It leaves a very pleasant herbal smell that lasts, so I get to smell my own face for hours! I definitely recommend using this face mask while enjoying a bubble bath. It's just like a day at the spa!

      I am a lifeguard during the summer so my skin get really dry. Every 2 to 3 days I use this to give my skin some moisture and it works so well. It has a texture to it that feels so good when putting this onto your skin. Also it smells amazing.

          I absolutely adore this product! I used the cupcake face mask as my first introductory product in this line, and when I went shopping yesterday, I saw the BB Seaweed in the fridge and grabbed it. I only just used it a little while ago, and my skin feels so incredibly soft and I feel very calm and clean right now. My only problem is that there are pretty large chunks of seaweed in it, but I don't mind at all because it just adds to the effect. For anyone looking for a great face mask to introduce yourself to the products, absolutely use BB Seaweed!

          I did like using this products but it did not do much for me. It has a great scent and leaves my face looking clean and helps my oily skin. Yet it also left me with a few breakouts and sometimes after use my nose area becomes very shiny. I have mixed feelings about it

                I was concerned at first because it was a little more watery than masks I have done in the past, but it hardened up just the same. When I took it off my face was so soft! Beyond the softness, my face looked more even toned and bright. Definitely a "feel good" mask.

                Sure, BB Seaweed removed all the nasty stuff from my skin after a long day at work-- BUT, the huge seaweed chunks are a bit much. They dry out immediately after application and fall all over the place, thus making a huge mess. Very refreshing after a long day however, cleaning up after this mask is not remotely refreshing. Definitely not impressed, I've moved on to Cosmetic Warrior as it provides a nice, smooth application and does the job.

                      Comments about BB Seaweed fresh face mask:

                      The associates at the Lush store were super helpful and friendly. I have very sensitive skin and was looking for something to moisturize and they recommended this. Though it is partly an exfoliant, there are also bits and pieces of things that makes the whole mask experience less pleasant. I felt a slight burning when I applied it and a few hours after I took it off, I got these strange wheels/zits without heads around my chin, mouth, and forhead. After almost a month, they are just now healing up. I usually love Lush, but I think this particular mask may have too many ingredients for my baby sensitive skin. I will still try other Lush masks in the future and love their other products. Even a company as great as they are can't be 100% perfect all the time for all people.

                      I love this mask. It really calms my sensitive skin, smells good, reduces redness, and is cooling from being in the fridge. The seaweed can be hard to get down the drain and it's pretty expensive for the amount of product you get. However, I would never use another face mask but BB Seaweed!

                          I used this in the dead of Winter, when the cold dries out my skin considerably. This mask helps my skin stay hydrated, healthy, and helps my face tighten up in a very pleasant way, and shrinks my pores. Very nice and enjoyable. The only con would be the pieces of seaweed can be kinda twiggy, and awkward. Also, some of the pieces are too big to go down the drain and must be thrown away by hand.

Trust me, this might smell weird at first and the seaweed is unusual BUT it definitely works and my skin felt cleaner after use. The seaweed doesn't do much and it's a bit hard to wash off, but it's magic and I will definitely buy this again!

                              This product was absolutley amazing. This is my first time trying this and I have a feeling it wont be the last time. After putting on this product and taking it off I looked at my skin and it was clear , very clear. Most of my blackheads faded out and I was completley in awh at the miracles it has done to my face. It also made it very soft and afterwards it has a nice cooling affect to it . I thought it was pretty nice. But at the end i found it a little difficult to get the residue off without seeing little bits and peices still on my face but other than that it was pretty awesome.

                              This product is really good. Usually when using LUSH masks, I put them on after I shower or rinse my face with warm water to open up my pores before I apply the mask on. When putting on BB Seaweed, it made my skin feel really nice. It is slightly difficult to wash off, but when there's still a small layer on my skin is usually when I start exfoliating/scrubbing it off. The only problem I have about this product are the really large pieces of seaweed inside the mask and the smell of my face after I use the mask.

                                      This facial mask is my favorite! It smells very fresh and is very smooth and easy to put on. My face is literally glowing and so smooth after I wash it off, and effects me days after (in a good way!)Absoloutly no negatives, except the seaweed bits get a bit annoying washing them down the drain. I haven't been out to the mall, therefore Lush, in a while (to get more facial masks), and I swear my skin is definetly not as clear as when I use my facial masks (I also reccomend Oatfix!. This is an amazing price for something so great, so get it, you will not regret it!! :)

                                        This is so far my favorite face mask! I swear I can feel the vitamins working their way into my skin. I have an oily T-zone with dry patches everywhere else. This seems to treat all of the above! It makes my skin feel fresh and renewed.

                                        I just wish it smelled a bit nicer, but hey, it's natural so I can't complain!

                                        When I started using this product at the beginning, I didn't notice much of a difference, but my friends were telling me that my skin was glowing. Then, I realized it's the magic of BB seaweed.
                                        Thank you LUSH employee who talked me into it!
                                        What I like to do in order to get some extra moisture into my dry skin is to first apply the BB seaweed mask. Wash it off and then apply the brazened honey.

                                            I purchased this product because the lady at the store said it would be great for my combination skin (Oily, Dry, and Sensitive) this product was extremely drying on my skin. I didn't want it and didn't want to throw it away so I gave it to my friend. After using this product, her skin was GLOWING!! She has typical skin, gets a breakout here and there, her skin is sensitive. I would recommend this to someone who rarely breaks out with not oily skin that is sensitive. This was NOT the face mask for me, but it worked wonders on my friend. Now, I just have to find a good face mask for me!!

                                                The fresh face masks have a shelf-life of three weeks. Each one has a sticker with the date it was made, the name of the person who made it, as well as the date it expires. It doesn't contain any preservatives, so it also needs to be kept refrigerated at all times.

                                                Apply a thick layer of the mask to dry skin. Leave it on for about 5-10 minutes (not long enough for the mask to dry or start cracking), and then rinse off. Some people cleanse before using the mask, and then tone and moisturize after, some people cleanse, tone and moisturize after using the mask, and some people skip cleansing altogether when using a mask! I personally cleanse after using a mask, to make sure that I have removed everything from my skin, but as long as you rinse thoroughly, it isn't a necessary step.

                                                This mask has a shelf life of 3 weeks from the date that it's made. You can check the face sticker on the bottom of the pot to see what date your mask was made on, and see the best by date as well. Shops get fresh deliveries once a week, which means that you will have at least two weeks to use your mask once you purchase it. We generally recommend using about 1/4 of the pot per use, twice a week, to make sure that you use it in time (and that you get a nice thick layer of the mask when you apply it!).
