A Chance At a Happy Ending - S5-E16
Other mistake: After Amenadiel's necklace pin is removed, Chloe tells lucifer to get the blade, and he picks it up with the hilt still attached. But we saw in an earlier season that without that pin to hold it all together, the hilt just falls off.

Continuity mistake: A guy with a face tattoo is in the opening scene, then the tattoo isn't there when the guard gets up.
Answer: As Cain theorises in a later episode, it's Chloe's love, not presence. This early on, Chloe had no strong feelings for Lucifer, so had no effect on his immortality. In fact even more recently he's back to being invulnerable around her after speculation that he chose to let himself be vulnerable. So while there's a degree of flexibility / retconning going on, it's all explained in-show.
