Re: Lush

I'm a complete Lush addict! I have to go in every few weeks & replenish my stash

There's not much in the UK range that I haven't tried- my favourites include Catastrophe Cosmetic facemask, I Love Juicy shampoo & Ultrabland cleanser.

I love that you can take back your empty pots & get a free facemask in return- except a couple of weeks ago I tried Cosmetic Warrior for the first time & it made my face swell up like a balloon

Re: Lush

Why can't Snow Fairy shower gel be available all year long???? I love it and just finished my bottle.

Has anyone tried the Vanilla Delite lotion? It smells amazing!!!!

Re: Lush

I had my first Lush haul ever on Tuesday

I just got "Honey I washed the kids" soap and "Aqua Marina" face cleanser. Even though I love how these smell, the soap has absolutely no lather (which I prefer) and the cleanser does not make my face soft, just smooth, if that makes any sense

Re: Lush

I just got my shipment from lush && I have to say I dont know why everyone is soo impressed with it. I got Honey I washed the Kids, Rock Star, and Godmother soap and they dont smell good at all. Maybe its just me, but i just dont like it. I also got the $20 A night in for 2 and I love the mask of magnaminty! I'm definately going to get a full size tub of this stuff, because its smells amazing. I also got Ultra Bland cleanser and that stuff is so hard to work with because its extra thick and doesn't come off without a ton of scrubbing.

I will probably order one more package for the skincare and to try a couple more of the shower gels. I will give lush one more chance

Re: Lush

I've actually never managed to find anything from LUSH that I wanted to buy, just because (like others have mentioned) the smell in the store makes me nauseous and kind of dizzy. I am a huge fan of creamy/candy smells, but I get overwhelmed by a whole room full of strongly scented items. Kind of like when Jim & Pam go over to Michael & Jan's house for dinner and they go into Jan's candle-making room, hehe.

Re: Lush

Lush is great. Just bought my first Lush stuff a few weeks ago. Which was the Honey Farm gift set.

Just took a bubble bath with 'Ma Bar' too. God, it smells like chocolate toffee!

Mmm Lush <3!

We sound like our skin is similar, I'd recommend:
-Herbalism cleanser
-Tea Tree toner
-Catastrophe Cosmetic mask

Good luck

i feel the same. I have spent upwards of 200 bucks on LUSH stuff and have NEVER been super impressed. I think its more of a novelty thing like "ooh i bought from lush" because honestly, the soaps dont smell that great to me or work that great either. I didnt care for any of the cleansers ive tried.

the ONLY 2 items that i have liked and rebought have been the bubble bars and imperialis moisturizer.

Re: Lush

I mostly use their skincare stuff, which I am EXTREMELY impressed with.

But I want to venture in to some of their other products.

FYI - the "twig" is a vanilla pod.

I LOVE Lush, I have used them for many years and had quite an addiction at one point.

My favourite soap is Sultana of soap.

The Gorgeous moisturiser is the only moisturiser I've found that I can actually use without a reaction and have now been using it every day for 4/5 months. LOVE IT.

I also use Ocean Salt exfoliator, Cupcake fresh face mask and Fresh Farmacy cleansing bar.

The toners are fab but if you take anything from this post, GORGEOUS is AMAZING. I know it's stupidly expensive but you only need a small amount.

What else? I've tried practically every product and have a MASSIVE stash, it's just an amazing company and I have a lot to thank them for.

I'm just sorry that the products are so much more expensive in the US.

Re: Lush

I recently went to Lush for the first time and it was such a pleasant experience! The lady who was helping me and my grandmother were very helpful, and we both got several samples filled to the brim! I went back the next day and bought Angels on Bare Skin Cleanser, I love it! I have very extreme combo skin and it solves both problems! Yay Lush!

They use a lot of essential oils and fruit/plant extracts in their stuff so if you have uber sensitive skin they may feel a bit harsh, however if you are normal to dry... OMG they are amazing!!! The soaps are heavenly and there is a scent for everyone and the body butters are fan-freakin-tasic! (although a bit pricey but in my opinion well worth it) Also I love the buttercreams (with are a soap but with more moisturizing properties). The dusting powders (like silky underpants) are awesome too and make your skin super smooth and soft!!! Also the massage bars are really good and the helping hands cream is my savior product!!! (especially if you are a MUA since our hands get all dried out from sanitizing them so often- it hydrates like a bat out of hell)

The skincare is very nice too but I don't buy it too often because since it is made fresh it goes bad kinda fast... but it's still worth checking out.


They are also very liberal with the samples so feel free to ask.

Sorry this response is so long... I just love lush sooooo much!

Hope it was helpful!

Re: Lush

I just went to the LUSH counter in my local Macy's for the first time and was really impressed by the customer service. The SA asked me if I had shopped there before and after saying no, she proceeded to tell me what her favorites were. After telling her that I wanted to try a small hunk of Rock Star, she gave me a bunch of samples (Rock Star, Honey I Washed the Kids, and Bohemian). Instead of pushing to make a sale, she wanted me to try some out before buying them. I did try them out and really like them so far. All I can say is, I will be back to buy some soaps and possibly some buttercreams.

We sound like our skin is similar, I'd recommend:
-Herbalism cleanser
-Tea Tree toner
-Catastrophe Cosmetic mask

I would use a light moisturizer with that...if your skin is oily as well as sensitive, then I'd put you with Enzymion. Otherwise, Celestial--which is made for sensitive skin.
