Lush discussion

Re: Lush

I just went to Lush for the first time today, I was interested in more natural skin care products. I have exceptionally dry skin, even after about 3 deep moisturizers and primer my face is peeling and cracking within a few hours. I also have very large pores and t-zone breakouts.

I have a pretty intense face cleansing regimen that I started recently in an effort to really start improving my skin. Traditional toners with alcohol were too drying, so I bought the Lush Breath of Fresh air one, and have used it three times now, so far I like it. I also bought two masks, seaweed and the secret of (something, i forget), because both were nutrient rich and I think thats exactly what my skin needs. I used the seaweed tonight after doing microdermabrasion and it made my skin feel so incredibly soft and smooth.

I have only two complaints:

Price is terrible! Why are we getting robbed over here in Canada?

Second, I am extremely sensitive to smells and scents. I had a horrible migraine for the rest of the day after being in there for about 15 mins, due to all the scentsy bath products on display. I don't find the toner or masks scentsy at all though, which is a relief. I may look at ordering online from now on so I can avoid having to deal with the migraines from going in store.

Re: Lush

^^ I have now tried dream cream on my face and LOVE it.
I did a more in depth review of my 5 favorite products from Lush on my blog, also the one product i HATE from them, angels on bare skin.

I do not understand the hype on the product? Does anyone use this and like it?

Re: Lush

Do you like solid shampoo bars?? I can't decide which ones to get, I need a clarifying one to use once or twice a week, and a non clarifying one ( but still not very moisturizing) for the est of the times. I have normal hair with oily roots, and sensitive scalp that many times is itchy and if i use the wrong shampoo it completely dries out.

I was thinking maybe Squeaky Green or Seanik as a clarifying one and maybe Hybrid or Karma Komba as the non clarifying one.

What do you suggest??

Goin to Lush

I plan on going to Lush on tuesday with skincare on my priority list.
I want to purchase a cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and mask. Any recs would be great! I have combo skin and zits mainly around my chin. Thanks in advance

Re: Goin to Lush

get the package that is 20. that way u can try a cleaner, 2 different toner tabs, a mask and 2 different mosturizers. i bought it tonight
and ask for a sample of angels on bare skin. it stinks but it will work wonders on ur skin.

Re: Goin to Lush

Ocean Salt and Sweet Japanese Girl are both really good. Ocean Salt is really scrubby though, so if your skin is sensitive I wouldn't try it.

Re: Goin to Lush

I have oily skin in summer and more combo in winter.

I like and use their Tea Tree Water toner and Coal Face and Sweet Japanese Girl cleansers. Coal Face is the more drying of the two, so you might want to try a sample first.

I like Ocean Salt too (it tastes really good lol), but I'm not willing to pay that much for a salt scrub.

I used their Enchanted Eye Cream for a while and it sort of sucked too. It was very runny and didn't seem to do anything.

I've used Enzymion moisturizer (they recommend it for oily skin) and it is without a doubt the worst moisturizer I have ever used. I usually don't break out from skincare products, but this destroyed my skin. I then tried using it only on my neck and chest (where I never break out) and it managed to break me out and clog my pores there too. It also made me really shiny.

Re: Lush

I am in LOVE with Lush. I honestly think that Rock Star soap and Sweetie Pie Shower Jelly are the only two bath products that I need for the rest of my life, seriously. The scent = LOVE.

I love the solid shampoo bars!

I alternate between New and Seanik as my clarifying shampoo. For non-clarifying I've used Godiva which was too moisturizing for my oily hair and Ultimate Shine (which I really liked).

Re: Lush

Can anyone suggest a few Lush products to start out with as a newbie to the line? I've only been into a store once and it was quite an overwhelming experience...lol. Everything smells so good!!! I'm interested in a soap, face cleanser/mask, and one of the massage bars. TIA for any help you can give me!

Re: Lush

I think I might be the only person that doesn't own any Lush products. I hear so much about them and how amazing they are. I should try their products whenever I get the chance to.
