    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.

    This was the first Fresh Face mask that I purchased from Lush and while I was pleased, I think I would like to try others before choosing a favorite. I love that they are made fresh in-store and I don't mind storing it in the fridge because the coldness is so refreshing.

    A lot of people don't like the seaweed bits in it, but I actually enjoy it and don't mind it at all. The smell is pleasant and not strong at all. The application feels tingly and 'fresh'.

    As for the results, I have normal/combination (and sensitive) skin and although my skin feels soft afterwards it did feel a bit drying. I would like to try other masks, but I wasn't terribly impressed with this mask.

      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!!

            I use this product once a week to nourish, calm, and exfoliate my usually blemish-less but highly reactive skin. A stiff breeze, change in water, or the wrong laundry detergent can make me red, blotchy, and itchy. The seaweed and rose in BBS is like Mozart for my face. It soothes, smoothes, and makes my skin more resilient and supple. This product is a must-have for the fair of face.

                I have tried several masks from lush and even though love lettuce was my absoulte fav i needed something that would tame and brighten my sensitive skin. After reading the ingredients on the packageing for this i was hook. I think alot of people under estimate this mask but to me it is really good. The smell is not bad at all or atl least the batch that i got was good. It leaves the skin very soft, moisturized and when i wake up in the morning it is bright and clear. I think this in congunction with my tea tree toner and coalface soap help clear my breakouts tremendously. I have combo skin and the mixture of all three really help to but my skin at bay. I will diffentitly repurchase

                  I LOVE this stuff! It looks a little weird in the container, like mayonnaise with weird bits of seaweed in it, but once you get past that you're good to go. Spreading this on your face evenly is a bit hard because the texture is smooth yet bumpy at the same time... but when it dries most of it disappears, like your regular mask. When I washed it off, my face felt AMAZING. softer, smoother, brighter--but not tight like some face masks leave your skin feeling! Heaven for your face. Thumbs up all the way!

                        My favorite face mask so far! I purchased this mask at my local store and I have to say all workers are so nice, definitely make the time shopping in the store pleasurable. As for the mask I have tried others such as Brazened Honey and Cupcake, which were good, but I can feel the it working in this one. And my skin feels absolutely fresh after use. Love so much! I recommend it greatly!

                            I went to a local Lush and found this mask. My skin is sensitive and needs a lot of hydration after the summer trips. I found this online and asked the SA to help me try this out.

                            I immediately noticed how it hydrated my skin. I usually use this following Aqua Marina cleanser and I love how clean my skin feels but well hydrated. Most of the commercial products, even if they say "for sensitive skin," irritates my skin. This one was not one of those.

                            If your skin is a trouble like mine, you've got to try this one!

                            I thought I would like this product because I like seaweed and I love lush products but I just can't stand the smell. Once I had to go to dinner with it on because I was in the middle of putting it on and then I was called downstairs for dinner and my family refused to eat because it smelled so bad. But the product does Moisturizes the skin but it disturbs me when I put it on my face. So I do not recommend this product.

                                      I started using Lush skin products as a last resort for my acne-prone skin. Since puberty, my skin has been very sensitive with lots of acne, so if I tried any product promising to get rid of my acne, my skin would burn and get red. I currently use Aqua Marina, Breath of Fresh Air, and Celestial daily on my skin and they cleared up my skin! So, when I was recommended to get this mask, I knew it would probably work fantastically - and I was right! The mask didn't irritate my skin at all. Instead, it left my skin soft and exfoliated. Buy this mask! You can't go wrong with it!

                                        I bought this after an associate recommended it for my dry skin. The first time I used it was a rather interesting experience. The texture is just plain weird, there is no denying that there is some serious amounts of seaweed in there. I was like, "what the heck am I putting on my face?" It can be hard to spread due to it's chunky texture. However, that will not stop me from buying this over and over! It leaves my skin soft, moisturized and glowing! This is a great gentle and exfoliating mask! The texture takes some getting used to, but it's worth it for the results!

                                        Trust me here, I'm not a Lush "fangirl". I find Lush products to be very hit and miss, but this one was totally a hit. This is the first face mask I've tried from Lush. I have extremely dry skin and it's sensitive as well. This face mask was awesome. Many times I've tried a face mask and it's made my skin itchy so I couldn't leave it on long enough for it to do anything. I didn't have that problem here.

                                        Another bonus I didn't expect: My face got a little sunburnt as well. When I used this, not only was it incredibly cooling (probably because I've never tried a cold face mask before), but it also took most of the redness away!

                                        My skin looked so soft and dewy after I used it, and that lasted for a while.

                                        One pot is enough for two uses, so unlike a lot of things at Lush, I thought the price was very reasonable as well. I will definately be buying more of these!

                                        This was the first Fresh Face mask that I purchased from Lush and while I was pleased, I think I would like to try others before choosing a favorite. I love that they are made fresh in-store and I don't mind storing it in the fridge because the coldness is so refreshing.

                                        A lot of people don't like the seaweed bits in it, but I actually enjoy it and don't mind it at all. The smell is pleasant and not strong at all. The application feels tingly and 'fresh'.

                                        As for the results, I have normal/combination (and sensitive) skin and although my skin feels soft afterwards it did feel a bit drying. I would like to try other masks, but I wasn't terribly impressed with this mask.

                                            Very nice face mask. I have pretty normal skin. No breakouts. But i like to use products for sensitive skin to keep my skin the way it is. This mask is great, made my skin soft, radiant, and moisterized. No irritation, no redness. Im always really iffy with face masks since my skin is pretty good i get scared to use something that might mess it up. But this is a really great product. Would def purchase again.

                                            My skin feels fresh and smooth even before using a moisturizer. I'm able to use this product about three times a week without any irritation. Seaweed pieces are kinda weird but aren't a problem. Will be repurchasing this face mask. Overall wonderful product.

                                              To start off, I am 20 and have normal/combo skin. I walked in intending to get an exfoliating mask, but the sales guy persuaded me into using this mask. I was hesitant at first, because the seaweed did not sound appealing; After coming home and using it, I immediately found my skin to be smoother, my dry patches gone, and woke up the next day with no breakouts and an even skin tone. HIGHLY recommended!

                                              This was recommended to me by a Lush employee in the Herald Square store in Manhattan (the staff there is brilliant, by the way - really sweet and helpful). I told her I had normal skin with a bit of breakout around the chin area every once in a while. She said she used the product herself and she loved it, so I thought I would try it - and I'm so happy I did!

                                              I like to use this mask once or twice a week in the evenings, substituting it for my regular face wash. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and clean and I can still feel and see the results in the morning. I LOVE this! Only downfall - I'm three hours from the nearest Lush store and it's not available online! :P

                                                  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!).
