When I bought this product I didn't really know how to use it and how it worked so I left it on my window sill in the lush bag. I come back later and find out it melted everywhere! Managed to save some of it and it made my skin feel nice.
I usually use this once I've cleansed and toned my face before bed. I don't have spots but my skin can sometimes be oily. But this makes my skin feel really soft in the mornings
This feels very nice on the skin but, as others have reported, it goes mouldy very quickly even though I keep it dry and covered. It's such a shame really but I won't be using it again.
I love this! It really helps with breakouts. I use it at night. A tin for this bar would be really nice. I am using my massage bar tins for these in the mean time.
Had the same problem with our bar going mouldy within a week or so. Our store offered to exchange it for free but have not got round to going back yet. Once this mould problem will be sorted, I think it will be brilliant as it saves having to take leaky runny pots of moisturizer on holiday, and it made my skin feel moisturised without the dreaded breakout three days later.
Loved it a first, but my bar developed a lot of black spots after a while, looking like mould, even though I kept it perfectly clean and dry - apparently that happens quite often and some Lush employees advise to not use it anymore when it does, but it doesn't really seem that Lush is doing anything about it (at least there hasn't been an official explanation). Won't buy it again in the near future.
I love this product!! Feels so moisturising and nice to massage into your skin. I look more glowing and fresh faced when i wake up after applying the night before.
it leaves skin feel extra mouisturised and is a good base to be used under any night cream it only enhances the product which is used over top of it
I have dry, sensitive skin but found Full of Grace to be a bit oily (I now know to use it differently and store in the fridge so I will try again) Saving Face smells amazing and using it daily as my night moisturiser has really helped with it's complexion. LUSH PLEASE BRING OUT A SERUM BAR TIN!
Love this! I have oily but sensetive skin and this really works.
I got this for free after having it used on me during a Facial. I hadn't bought it separately because my skin can be a little sensitive and I didn't want to waste my money.rnrnI am so glad I bought this. I use it as a night cream after removing the day's dirt with Baby Face. It leaves my face matte and so so soft, and it smells lovely - really fresh and limey. It is a bit melty, especially in this heat wave!, so I'm currently keeping it in a tupperware box. Maybe a tin for these would be good?
LOVE this stuff! I have combination skin that does get quite oily sometimes too and my skin just drank it in completely. Was abit worried it might leave an oily film but it doesn't at all and my skin is very picky about which products it likes! Lovely fruity smell too and feels totally luxurious to apply.
This product has worked wonders on my skin! I have combination skin, so I actually melted this and the Full Of Grace serum together in my hands prior to my face mask (BB Seaweed being a favourite) and, having used the product for two weeks, already my skin is clearer, smoother and my make up goes on so much easier. It's nourished my skin without clogging up the pores. I'm definitely addicted now!
I recently got a fringe and suffered from a very spotty forehead for the first time in my life. I went into my nearest shop and explained about my forehead and they recommended this. After just three days ALL the spots were gone - this serum is an absolute life saver and WELL worth the money. I can't stress enough how well this works to get rid of spots and clear up an oily T zone!
Wow! I ordered online and when it arrived I was a bit disappointed in the size for the price. however after my very first use, i was so impressed! It was an impulse buy and i wasnt sure what to expect but it feels and smells wonderful on skin and you only need a tiny amount. i use it after cleansing and toning and before moisturiser, and as i had heard, it is amazing to use under a fresh face mask. i wondered what the point of this was but just try it. its amazing
smells great, makes the skin soft but mine got whiteheads after :/ my skin is funny sometimes with oily/dry patches depending on what i am using so i'll see how it goes on the long run or will simply use it under the mask.
I got an oily forehead and I tend to grow spots at my chin. I sooo love this serum as it made my skin wonderful. I will buy it again for sure! :)
I have 'complicated' skin (i.e. spots, and dryness and oiliness and a tendency to sensitivity etc) and I have tried many, many products to try an sort it, but using this has really helped my skin. It is much softer, old scars are diminishing and new spots aren't appearing. Needs something to store it in, though, as at the moment, it is in a very non eco friendly snaplock bag to keep it safe in my gym washbag!
I read the reviews and noticed that people were using it as a night treatment. I tried the same and my skin developed spots over my chin :-( rnI normally use Fresh Farmacy + vanishing cream and this combo works, but I am not sure whether the enzymic action is too much for my skin. It felt lovely/smelt devine but if your skin is prone to acne or has suffered with acne in the past I would be inclined to stick to using it as it was designed - under face masks.
wonderful product. i use it instead of night moisturiser and it works a treat. my big brother uses it for his razor rash too, he has even more sensitive skin than i do and it has no bad effects on him. great for eczema and spots and will be in my winter survival plan. never get rid of this product please :D
Okay, this is amazing. I was a little sceptical at first, considering the size, but it really works wonders. I use it after cleansing and toning in the morning, let it sink in, then put on my moisturiser - and my skin is so soft for the whole day! I put it on at night, too, and it does what it says on the tin - leaves your skin baby soft by the morning :) It seems to be helping some old scars I have so that is a bonus, & definitely does not make my skin oily. Love this stuff! H x
Absolutely fantastic stuff. My skin is complicated at the best of times but this really does the trick. rnrnSo why only four stars? If it had a tin or something else to live in rather than having to keep it in the bag, it would get five!
This is the best product I've ever bought from Lush. When I first applied it to my face (which is oily on the T-zone, but really dry/ some eczema elsewhere), I was skeptical that it would help (it's quite oily at first). But after a few moments, my skin was amazingly moisturised on the dry bits - the eczema is actually clearing up - and nowhere near as greasy on the oily bits. This lasted for most of the day. I'm very VERY happy with it!
wow what a fab lush product! ive been using this for a week my skin has never looked beter!
I have VERY oily skin. We're talking "danger to marine life" proportions here. Firstly it smells beautiful, really summery.. Secondly used as an intensive night cream and under a face mask makes my skin softer than a baby's proverbial. I don't thinks it really stops my skin getting oily, but it certainly doesn't make it worse and the softness is sooo definitlely worth it. Reasonably priced too. All we need now is teeny weeny tins to carry it round it... crack on with it, lovely Lush minions!
I love this product! It's AMAZING! Especially for me who is far too lazy to moisurise! it leaves my skin super soft! my new favourite product!
This is the BEST £7.50 you will ever spend. Its great! I read a review about putting it on at night and in the morning everything will be all lovely and rosy and thought yeah right but its TRUE!!! The smell is gorgeous, ok it feels strange and gets in your hair BUT IT EVEN WORKS ON HAIR! rnrnTop tip, if like me you have slightly sensitive skin when using a scrub, put some of this on first, hop in the shower and then use your scrub as this acts as a barrier cream and takes away the sting.
I love this product it is amazing, it really does work!!!!! My oily skin is now lovely, it doesn't stop spots though.
My skin is very oily and I was concerned that Saving Face would make it worse. After a week of using it as my night moisturizer, I am impressed! It has kept my skin clear and soft. My favorite use is under a Cupcake mask. It really cleans out my pores and smells lovely, like Key Lime Pie with chocolate!
This smells fantastic and leaves my skin super smooth and soft. I currently use this on a night and find in the morning my skin hasn't accumulated a little grease like it does usually.
Oh my gosh. reall REALLY amazing. bought this today, and tried it straight away. left it on for 20 mins and then put oatifix face mask on, and my skin is SO SMOOTHH. and my pores on my nose and cheeks have really calmed down almost vanished! cannot wait to leave it on all night and see the wonders it does then. truly AMAZING PRODUCT.
I didn't think I'd use the serums but I've heard such good things and read such great reviews I thought I'd give it a go! I have a lot of scarring and redness (broken capillaries) on my face. I heard that Full of Grace is best for redness but I'm prone to breakouts too so decided to go for Saving Face. Well, it's definitely saving my face!!! The redness on both the scarring and broken capillaries is fading after just 3 nights of using it! No spots too! Awesome product! Smells lovely!
You've done it again Lush - a product that lives up to the hype. I bought this, wondering if it would be any good, and put it like this - this little gem will be going on holiday with me! A real winner, and well worth the money.
i've only just got this and already my skin feels lovely, i used it as a base before i put my face mask on and i also use it as a night cream
this is a serious must have...i have thw worst skin you can imagine however have developed a lush routine that has worked wonders on my skin and this is just the perfect addition... works wonder on my combination skin that can border on extremely oily and irritated some days... my skin is baby bum smooth... no breakouts no exessive shine .. just a healthy glow... perfectly compliments any face mask helps it go on smoother and somehow feel penetrate deeper... it is a wonder...
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!!!! It smells so divine and i have had no break-outs or spots ever since i bought this wonder!!! I use before bedtime and wake-up with soft, smooth skin. Also i use it under a face mask. At first i thought:WOW sounds good but is that tiny thing gonna last and be worth its price????Anwser 100% worth it!!!!!
I will be buying this product forever, it's fantastic! I have never had baby soft skin like this before! This is a must to purchase!
All I can say is WOW WOW WOW - my skin is sooo soft & smoothh & blackheads have gone from my nose after 4 days of using
I dont see why everyone complains aboutt he size, it's for the face not the body! it's more then enough for the face! infact, this is my new must in facecare. feels amazing, smells amazing, doesnt break me out and really moisturises my face. Strange enough, all those oils seem to help my oily T-zone! Amazing.
I got a sample of this with my order. It is completely amazing. I put on this before I put on my Mask of Magnaminty. It really makes a difference. My face seems brightened after using it.
Amazing product, there's nothing like it! I can't believe my skin after using Saving Face, no spots, no redness, just smooth skin like it's never been before. I used it after Dark Angels and left it on for bed, not sure if that's what you're supposed to do but it worked for me. Top marks!
I was a little bit nervous to use this product because I tend to break out easily, but it worked wonderfully! It seemed to even out my skin tone a bit, and it made my face feel really smooth. I've used it three times and no breakouts yet. Great product!
It smells gorgeous, it's smaller than I expected for the price however a small bit does go a long way. Overall i'm pleased with it.
I have really oily shiny skin so was wary about putting anything oily on my face, especially over night, but this product is amazing. I've used it the last two nights and my skin has felt amazing soft when I woke up in the morning and not oily at all. I wanted a really good night cream and LUSH you have done it again. Thanks you!!!!!
