Lush Cosmetics Grease Lightening

I feel it appropriate to start this blog off with my new favourite product. I've recently started a new obsession with Lush cosmetic products. If you don't know what lush is, basically it's a cosmetic company who make things such as bath bombs,bubble bars,facemasks, anything you can think of really. They do not make fake tan or things similar as they believe in natural skin. They do however do bronzes. They are mainly vegan, but some products are vegetarian as they contain honey. They are against animal testing and their products smell amazing!

Instead of reviewing the usual bath bombs etc, I've decided to start with a product called 'Grease Lightening'. This is classed as a concealer. It claims to be a very fast spot treatment, showing results rather quickly. 
I went into my local store for a general nosey at some products. I got asked what id say is my biggest problem with my skin. Mines is certainly dry skin and spots. I don't get bad acne or anything like that,but I do break out every so often. 

The man gave me a tester(lush are good for giving out free testers if you're genuinely interested in a product). So I took my sample and off I went. 

A few days later my mum came to visit. She has very bad spots and I gave her my sample. The next day she ordered herself her own one and I tried the sample. I had a spot, that had a head and was not quite ready to burst. I put a dot of serum on the spot, and no word of a lie in the morning it was almost gone! I was blown away, and told my partner about this. He has very bad back acne, and a recurring spot on his chest that it massive and looks agonising. So the next time I was in lush I bought myself a full sized serum. To my surprise my other half bought himself one. Now that's the three of us bought our own-so it must be doing something right! 

It's quite thick to touch, like a gel but not overly sticky. It smells like tea tree and witch hazel-a beautiful musky scent. It's priced at £6.50 and will last a long time-well worth the money! I am still using the tester pot which is the size of a 5p! What's also great about this product is that you can use it as often as you want. I have found that if a spot has burst the serum does nothing to reduce the redness,but then again that's not its purpose! I give this a 4.0,as I'm still new to using it, and though it's done wonders for my odd spot, we will have to wait and see what it does for my others halfs moderate spot problem! Would highly recommend and have now interested another friend with this- 4 people now have bought this on my recommendation!
