Re: Lush

i was so excited to try their stuff (I got fresh farmacy, tea tree water and some soap that i forgot the name of) and i was so disappointed. Now even the smell of the stuff gets me nauseous

Re: Any LUSH lovers? Need some recs please!

I like Lush masks, oddly enough it is not mentioned here but in my place, people are crazy about Cupcake mask and I also love Mask of Magnaminty, if your friend likes facial masks and minty smell, I think I'd go for it.

I think Lush massage bars are really good, smells all day long, my favourite ones are glitterbug sparkle (smells vanilla and has shimmers) and shimmy shimmy (smells vanilla and lavender and has shimmers).

I also love shower jellies unlike most people, my whoosh had a really refreshing smell and lasted forever..

Re: Any LUSH lovers? Need some recs please!

I don't care for the shower jellies. They're a fun concept, but not really practical or easy to use. I was always dropping mine and when it gets under hot running water, it melts and you can lose a lot of product.

I'm a total Lushie, so here's my recs:

Flying Fox shower gels smells divine.

Buffy is a body scrub/moisturizer in bar form and will give you the smoothest softest skin. May feel greasy at first, but sinks in within 10 minutes.

Lemony Flutter has kept my cuticles so moisturized, esp in the harsh winter. No more hangnails!! Lasts a long time too.

Bath bombs - Sex Bomb, Big Blue (reminds you of the ocean), Blackberry (purple), and All That Jas (teal).

Bubble bars, you can't go wrong with Comforter to start.

I also love Floating Island, MMM, and the other bath melts.

Thanks again guys for all the recs... Unfortunately, that original post was from 2 months ago. So I've kinda already gone. Lol...and didn't care much for it. WHOLE OTHER THREAD about that experience...lol.
Thanks again guys!

Re: Lush

The only lush products I have stuck with is the hair care. Squeaky Green Shampoo Bar/Veganese Conditioner = perfect combo for me. The bubble bars/bath fizzies dry out my skin and make me itch

Total shame because I LOVE THE SMELL OF 'POP IN THE BATH' BUBBLE BAR...mmmmm....

Re: Any LUSH lovers? Need some recs please!

I used to work for LUSH and I still love all of thier products.
Right now I only use thier soaps, shower gels and body butters/massage bars.

My tub is too small to take baths in so I dont use the bombs or bubble bars anymore.

Every Holiday they come out with an amazing shower gel called Snow Fairy. They just released a soap (this week) called Godmother that smells just like it.

Re: Lush

Their massage bars are my fave product from them. Soft Coeur, Wiccy Magic Muscles, Mange Too...yummy, they smell good and leave your skin soft and warm. I buy this to every girl mate as a bday present

Re: Lush

so I've used most of what I've bought and I thought I'd make an update....

I've used the up-you-gets emotibomb... it didn't scent my shower as strongly as it hoped it would... I love the smell (love citrus!) but I probably won't buy it again since my funds are low at the moment.

I absolutely love the scent of sexy peel but unfortunately it dries my skin out! does anyone know of an alternate use I could use it for? I love the smell and I'd hate to waste it...

I've tried ultra-bland cleanser and it's not for me... too much work to get it off and sometimes it feels like I haven't gotten it all off :/

I love the comforter bubble bar and tea tree water and especially mask of magnaminty! I wish I could use MoM everyday!!

Re: Lush

unfortunately, i'm unhappy with my first lush purchases. I bought fresh farmacy cleanser and tea tree water toner about 3 weeks ago under the assumption that this stuff was amazing and would clear my totally problematic acne-prone skin, but it has not

its only dried my skin out big time and made me oilier in my t-zone. Even the toner isn't doing its job well. It feels nice to spray on after the drying effects of the cleanser but it doesn't get off any make up residue left.

anyway I am a little disappointed because I heard this stuff was a miracle worker an a "godsend" (lol from the reviews) but noo my face is worse than ever. booo

Re: Any LUSH lovers? Need some recs please!

Vanishing Cream! 100% I have combination skin with some oily patches, acne prone, and some dry spots in the winter. Its light enough that it doesnt cause excess oil, and it feels nice on your skin

 

[YSLGuy]

Re: Any LUSH lovers? Need some recs please!

Of Lush's moisturizers Celestial or Enzymion are probably the lightest.

Vanishing Cream is new and I have not tried it, but it sounds great

^ Agreed, in my experience...
I tried Enzymion before Vanishing Cream, and I found that its very moisturizing, to the point where it put a lot of excess oil on my skin. It will be great for me in the dead of winter when I have dryer skin, but I found that its just too hydrating for people with oily skin.

Re: Any LUSH lovers? Need some recs please!

Sadly they don't sell Vanishing Cream in here, at least not in the webshop.. They do have Enzymion but no Celestial either..

Don't give up yet! I would recommend that you try Coalface cleanser. Then use your tea tree water toner. I hate that it comes in a spray bottle, it's pretty useless. Instead just put some on a cotton pad and wipe your face down (after you use Coalface). Make sure you use a moisturizer after the toner. I use Cosmetic Lad moisturizer but I would talk to someone at Lush to figure out the best one for your skin type. This combo has made a world of difference for my face, but everybody is different, so I'm not sure if it will work for you, but I think it's worth a shot. Good luck!! =)
