They aren't so nice in store about freebies, they were when they first arrived in Melb but then they got all Nazi-ish about it. Right about when the profit-making thing kicked in...

PS will eventually be transferring my MUA Lush reviews to hear, will keep all LUSHies posted.

Aww thank you so much! But as you're in Australia I can't ask that of you -- too much shipping. You guys already pay more for cosmetics as it is! Thank you again though, you're very generous. I'll have to try to sneak a sample next time :loveya:

I LOVE Sonic Death Monkey and Flying Fox showergels. For hours after using Flying fox, I smell like honey and jasmine...very sexy. Sonic Death Monkey is chocolate, coffee, and a bunch of other stuff that smells slightly of hippie, but very chocolately too. The bottle says it is also a hair gel (??!!??!), so I added a dime size amount to my other hair products, and my hair smells great! no stickyness or anything. I love the products, but not the prices so much...hopefully I'll get some for the holidays

DAMN now I need the shower gels too

You guys are sucking the life out of my already near-empty wallet.

That's ok visivo - but you MUST try it.

I adore Flying Fox shower gel! Bit harsh for my skin so I don't use too often.

Just tried 2 of the buttercreams - Almond & Heavenly Bodies. They seem really similar as they have a lot of citrus oils & juices in them. I'm a bit disappointed about that, but they are very moisturising, great if you can't be bothered putting on body lotion post-shower. Will try Emperor of Ice Cream later on.

Has anyone tried the Coalface face wash?!? Love IT! Not too dring, but gets everything off. Yay! Also, the Ooh Lah Lah and Coconut Soap are to die for. I'm going there in a matter of minutes! Huzzah!

Coconut soap, you mean I Should Coco? I loved it but it gave me this horrid burning rash. Shame, as it smells heavenly.

My faves are the Candy Fluff & Silky Underwear Dusting Powders and the Eau Roma toner. My husband used to use some crappy shaving cream but is now hooked on the Ambrosia shaving cream... which is actually quite a big deal considering how he usually tries to cheap out on toiletries.

I use EVERYTHING LUSH!!! shampoo, conditioner, bath products, skin care, etc. I LOVE their skincare items, I'm 41 years young and my skin has never been as healthy as it is now. I now have dh converted and he only uses lushes too!

Hi ambriel! *waves*, I definitely converted my mother and brother to Lush, we all three are addicted to the coconut & almond smoothie.

Just want to rave a bit more about LUSH...I've been VERY good about taking care of my skin ever since I "discovered" LUSH a year ago, and my skin just GLOWS now! I use Sweet Japanese Girl, Breath of Fresh Air toner to remove the excess cocoa butter and almond bits, and then Celestial moisturizer. I also used to trash Buffy the Backside Slayer (for the smell, I couldn't get past the smell), but I gave it another try and WOW. The smell doesn't bother me nearly as much now that I see the results!

Just found out about them and I am in love. So far my favorite is the Bohemian and Honey I Washed The Kids. I have a LIST of stuff I want to buy. Might go Monday!!

I just got £30 worth of Lush this week and got £30 worth of Lush free.

I got
Dream Cream (love this)
Imperialis moisturising cream (love this too, great for combo skin)
Snowfestival BBS (smells like Snowcake soap)
American Cream conditioner
= £30

and got
Almond Kisses (worth about £18 )
Rehab shampoo (worth about £11)

...for FREE!!

I don't know if US Lush's are doing Free '05 but if they are then get yourself down there quick, you can have anything that was made in 2005 free (apart from normal gift boxes) and any Xmas gift box free, if you spend £15, some people have ended up with £50 gift boxes free for spending £15! I really wanted Gorgeous cream (worth £35) but ofcourse those were snapped up as freebies on 1st day and i went on 2nd. An

I just started using Lush's skincare products. I use Coalface, Tea Tree Water and Imperialis moisturzer. It's too early for me to tell if it's working right now, but we'll see in a month.

Does anyone know if the freebie thing (where you spend 45 & get last years products free) is just a one day event? I am near the SF stores... man I hope it's still going on

New raves: I've just started using angels on bare skin (thanks to ALLISWAN! <3) and it's amazing -- the smell, the texture, everything. My skin is looking great. Though -- in the latest lush life says that their cleansers should be used once a day, at night. I wash my face twice a day and Im wondering if any of you girls use em twice a day like me or what

link: http://www.lush.com/lushlife/cleansers.htm

I am slowly converting like, every type of product I use to LUSH -- discovering new things all the time to take over for the so-so products of yore :P AoBS for an exfoliator, breath of fresh air is nice as a toner, but i also like the sea aloe toner ive been using by Zia skincare. The strokes is amazing for my hair, and the masks are f'ing incredible. I also just got smitten handcream and well, you can guess how i feel about it!

I want to find an awesome moisturizer by them! I currently use clinique DDM GEL because i have combo skin that is relatively sensitive, but it's not cutting it now for the dry patches I have. Recs? I am eyeing Ultralight...

Sadly, LUSH has become my absolute obsession, surpassing even mac; I haven't even HEARD of or looked at Lingerie til today ! And the last thing I bought was Dame in a Dress Lipgelee -- the only thing ive purchased in a long while.

Now for all my co-lushes/mac fiends -- What are your LUSH/MAC must-haves?

The Big Free event (spend $45, get a free Xmas gift or bulk item) IS indeed going on still, not sure how much is left at different locations so get down there. Orlando (Florida Mall, not the airport) still had a couple BIG gifts left, but some other stores are only giving away soap bars or BBS, call and ask for availability....if you go to LUSH forums (link is at the top of the NA website, to the right a bit) and sign up, you can find all KINDS of crazy deals. I have two coupons for a buy one get one free offer LUSH is doing for their top 5 selling products: Ocean Salt, Dream Cream, Avobath, and two others I can't remember off the top of my head. I don't think I'll be using them, is anyone interested?

It lasts till the '05 products run out.
