Is it a Scam? Does It Really Work? Check Ingredients, Side Effects and More!

Lush Dark Angels Facial Cleanser is a charcoal and black sugar product that is meant to exfoliate and absorb excess oils from your skin. It promises to make oily, dull, or acne-prone skin matte and fresh. Even oily skin can be sensitive, so they have made a soft and soothing formula to calm irritation and redness, as claimed on the official website. Its rhassoul mud deeply cleanses to prevent breakouts, while cold pressed organic avocado oil supplies the skin with essential vitamins leaving it lightly hydrated and soft. But can this product really make your skin perfectly smooth and bright? To answer this vital question, we will need to take a look at the ingredients of the product, as well as customer reviews and possible allergic reactions. Speaking about the manufacturer of this facial cleanser, it seems to be not a well-known or popular company in the country. So, it cannot be trusted to the fullest. However, they appear to manufacture some other skincare products.

Lush Dark Angels does not contain any parabens or preservatives. The smallest tub contains 100g of the product. The color of the cleanser is black, while the texture is neither solid nor liquid, kind of powdery solid. Most customers like the smell of the cleanser. The method to use is simple enough. You will need to take a pea-size on your palm and add some warm water to make a paste. Massage it onto your dampened skin and rinse it off with warm water. You may keep it for some time before washing it off. The application is very messy, so the owners of a white sink may be about to faint. Your sink is never safe. Once you rinse the mask off, you will remember how while your bathroom sink was. The product leaves black stains all over. The worst thing is that the Lush Dark Angels stains not only your sink, but it also leaves black residue on your skin. You will certainly need to use another cleanser to remove the stain. It can be micellar water too.

Lush Dark Angels

As we can read on the official website of the Lush Dark Angels Cleanser, this product is enriched with black sugar and charcoal used mainly to exfoliate the skin. Rhassoul mud is used to deeply cleanse the skin. Vegetable glycerine and cold-pressed avocado oil are responsible for moisturizing and softening the skin. Rosewood and Sandalwood oils give the cleanser an earthy fragrance and have an antiseptic and cooling effect on the user's skin.

We have made our own research of some ingredients in the product and have learnt some interesting facts about activated charcoal and its effects on the skin. While some healthcare providers who specialize in natural medicine say that this compound can help to clear the skin of toxins and improve the look of skin, many medical professionals don't agree with this belief. They are concerned with the safety and true effects of activated charcoal on human skin. The data that back up the benefits of activated charcoal for skin conditions remains unclear.

Black sugar is mainly used for scrubbing effects; however, scrubbing can cause damage the skin, according to the warnings of experts to Ismat Tahseen. Most people use scrubs as their weekly routine but sugar scrubs can damage the skin making it dry and irritated. Besides, some scrubs can block pores and even cause infection of hair follicles (folliculitis). Dr Sharad claims that it is wrong to scrub dry skin as this may disrupt the barrier function making the skin very sensitive. Scrubbing may also cause post inflammatory hyperpigmentation and darkening of blemishes. Scrubs can be used in a spa once in 15 days. Rhassoul mud found in Lush Dark Angels is hyped as a beauty product due to its high content of Silica (58%). Silica helps to increase the skin's moisture. Rhassoul mud also has iron, magnesium, sodium, lithium, potassium, and other trace minerals. The major side effect of this mud is dry skin.

Customer Reviews - Does It Have Any Side Effects?

There is not a word about possible side effects or allergic reactions of Lush Dark Angels on the official website, but it does not mean that the product is safe to use for everyone. In reality, there are many reports that people experience skin redness, irritation and appearance of whiteheads and blackheads after application of the product. Let us take a look at what users are writing about their experience of using the product. Many of them say that they had high hopes for Lush Dark Angels but this product turned out to be not worth a penny. What they did like, though was the smell and gritty texture. However; the major complaint about the product was that it left black residue all over the users' skin. They say it is rather hard to remove the cleanser. Some people had to wash their face several times and scrub it with a wash cloth. Another disadvantage of this cleanser is that it clogs pores and your face will be probably covered in black dots, especially if you have large pores. Here are some real customers' testimonials.

"Beware of Lush Dark Angels: this product can leave a black residue on your face! It looks just awful! I only used this product once in the shower and I rinsed it thoroughly; however, my face was still covered with black dots. I didn't know what to do and used a white scrub. It has improved the situation significantly. I did not notice any just didn't enjoy using it and didn't see any positive results on my skin."

"LushDark Angels facial cleanser was too rough for my skin. It caused serious skin irritation and dryness. Besides, this product stains my face every time I apply it. As a result, I have to use another cleanser to get rid of the black residue left on my face. This is annoying and irritating for my face. Therefore, I had to stop using the product. I cannot recommend it to anyone."

"Lush DarkAngels has a great smell but, unfortunately, it expired after just two weeks. Now I am left with my whole shower and tub stained black. I saw no results. This was one of the worst skincare products I have ever used in my life. Save your money and don't believe the advertisement."

Where To Buy Lush Dark Angels?

The product can be purchased directly from the official website of the manufacturer. The price for a 100g container is almost 20$. Lush Dark Angels can also be found at all Lush stores and on some retail stores online.

My Final Summary

Taking into account everything we have learnt about Lush Dark Angels, this facial cleanser does not seem to be worth your money. It has a lot of disadvantages. First of all, it does not appear to effectively cleanse and soften the skin. It leaves black residue on the face after usage, so you will have to apply another cleanser additionally. The application process is very messy and makes the tub really dirty. Most customers report that it smells good; however, some customers find its smell awful. There are many reports that the product makes the skin dry and irritated after usage. With all this in mind, I cannot recommend the Lush Dark Angels to usage.
