LUSH- Herbalism review

I must be one of the biggest fans of the cosmetic store LUSH! And lately, I have always wanted to purchase  something, every time I'm in there. I know that with a lot of their products, its like marmite, you either love them or you hate them, but if you find something you love, you can't help but got and buy it again. 
I am fully aware that this product doesn't exactly look 'welcoming', but if you're brave enough to give it a try, it's worth it!
My skin is oily around the T-Zone, so I need to be careful about the moisturizing and cleaning products I use on my face, i don't want anything that will dry it out completely, but then again I want to try and prevent the oil as much as possible. 
Herbalism is made up of antibacterial herbs such as rosemary, thyme and nettle, and absorbent rise bran. The rice bran is used to absorb the oil off of your skin leaving it fresh and nourished. 
As I mentioned, it is perfect for oily skin, but it also helps to prevent breakouts! 
As well as the product not looking very welcoming, I am not a massive fan of the smell, however once you've washed it off, the smell doesn't linger on your skin anyway. 
The product comes in tubs of 100g, and it is reasonably priced at £6.25, considering the product seems to last forever, I think it is a very good deal.
I would highly recommend it to anyone with oily skin or with regular breakouts, but I know that everyone's opinions of the product are different, so let me know what you think of it in the comments!

Lots of love, Lexx   xx
