Lush discussion

Re: LUSH!?!? Please peeps explain...

I've been using Lush products religiously for a few months now. The store is about an hour away from my home, which justifies why their products are so awesome. I don't have to pay hefty shipping fees like with companies order from online. I love the natural ingredients and their innovation. I love the customer service and the quality put into each product.

Essentially, what makes Lush so great is that the products work, and work very well.

It is really one of those companies you have to try for yourself. I have dry skin and they work wonders without irritation or without clogging pores.

Actually, Indians use sandalwood to clear and tone the skin. I've been using sandalwood for a year and I love it. The scent is mild and non-irritating for my dry, sensitive skin. You can mix it with yogurt, strawberry powder or milk.

Re: LUSH!?!? Please peeps explain...

Hi all! I am new to LUSH since this past holiday season. So far I've used and liked very much: sexy peel soap, Snow Fairy shower gel, Sympathy for the Skin Body lotion, Rock Star soap, and Dream Cream.

However, I did try to use my sexy boy message bar and it was like putting Crisco on my skin. Does anyone use it that can fill me in? Should I have used it in the shower? I had to use another soap to get the slimy greasy feeling off of me. I was disappointed cause the soap is so cute!

Lush saved my life the other day!

I was being dragged shopping in London bored, pissed off and tired.

When we got off at one of the undeground stations I caught a familiar whiff and OMFG there it was, a BIG lush store in the underground shopping area. Just the smell was enough to remind me I could go home and sink into a tub of it.

London didn't seem so bad after that.

I can't remember the station, it's near edgeware road.

(my bolding)

I think you have misunderstood what the product is for. A massage bar is like a massage oil in solid form. You use it when giving someone or yourself a massage. (Though they work nicely as a body moisturizer too.)

It is not a soap.

What is Lush's policy on samples?

The first time I went I got 3 full products, plus 3-4 samples free. At a different store they looked at me like I was crazy when I asked if they had any samples. (I spent $100+ both times I went.) I just wonder if there is a policy or if anyone knows which stores hook it up?

The universal city walk (in LA) was the one that hooked me up. The Santa Monica store didn't give me any samples.

there's no policy some stores give them out some don't. It also depends on the SA. i went once and spent $100 and didn't get any samples i asked the guy and he looked at me funny to, but then he gave w/e samples i wanted. He's like okay i'll give u some. It really depnds on the SA, i think lush is not required to give them out .. but its always nice to get them

Re: Lush

If you go in during busy times E.G weekends, lunchtimes, christmas
you'll find they are alot less likely to give you any, also new employees and christmas temps often are told to not give out samples.

Re: Lush

I purchased the Dark Angels Black Sugar and Charcoal Scrub and I LOVE it. Really controls oil and makes my face feel soft.

Re: Lush

THey now have some LE bathbombs with the American Flag, and some hot green shower gel called " electo-" something, I forget. I dislike liquid soap so I didn't pay it much attention, although it smelled nice.

And OMFG OCEAN SALT!!! <3 why haven't I tried that stuff before? Pure heaven on my face and body...

Re: Lush

I'm a total Lush Virgin - ok, there goes, I've said it.

In my defence the nearest one is a 3 hour drive from me!

I am however planning on doing a large haul next week when I'm in Belfast, yipeee!

Just wondering what are the staples/must haves I should look out for?

So far on my rather small and meagre list is:

Ultrabland cleanser
Bubblegum lip scrub

Help me spend my hard earned monies there, what should I get?

you should get the godmother soap .. it has a sweet smell to it if you like that sort of thing.

seanik soild shampoo is AMAZINGG it makes my hair feel so clean and fresh and gives it a ton of volume.

Also if you like sweet smells also try yummy yummy yummy shower gel .. love this stuff.

American Cream conditioner is another one of faves .. lovee this stuff.


Check out the cleaners/toners to depending on your skin type

hope i helped you lol

Can't wait to actually get to the store and oooh the smells and fragances... can't wait!!

Re: Lush

I'll never forget the first time I ever went into a Lush shop - it was the one at Covent Garden in London and it was so amazing!

We now have Lush shops here in the US, but I'll never forget my "first time".

Speaking of, I need to stock up on bath bombs. A lot of other companies make bath fizzies these days, but Lush still makes the best ones by far, IMHO.
