So today I decided to take a container, and drop a small piece in my itty bitty room, and the smell is divine!
Goodbye Glade and Febreeze!



Did you put it in water or just a container??

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

I don't take baths, my hair regime is finally where my hair likes it, so anything else like shower or face stuff you all recommend? I don't enjoy baths personally and don't feel clean when I have one. TIA!

Re: Lush

I'm also pretty new to Lush, other than a few bathbombs that I don't specifically recall. Can anybody name some more must-haves or can you direct me to another thread or forum where I could acquire such knowledge?

Re: Lush

Y'know..I've always heard such AMAZINGGGG things about Lush that have made me want to try it for years. The scents sound like they'd be mouthwatering, the products themselves look fabulous and I love the advertising. I've always thought I've been missing out on this heaven-in-a-bar, miracle soap. Boy, was I wrong! I just got a good couple Lush products such as HIWTK, Snowcake, Rockstar, etc. Before receiving those I had even ordered HIWTK and Rockstar fragrance oils to make my own soap, since I figured they'd smell incredible and what better way to kick off this new hobby than with a #1 selling fragrance! But yeah, definitely did not work out for me. I don't understand why everyone's so crazy about these scents! Even my family and boyfriend thought they smelled awful. So yeah, I'm dissapointed to say the least.

The only product I was able to get use out of the lot is the American Cream conditioner, which I still wouldn't buy again. So boo, Lush just isn't for me!

I got a New shampoo bar yesterday. It will be interesting to try out. My scalp is so messed up from this cold, that Soak and float isn't really doing anything for me anymore, so I might as well mix it up.

Ordering from Lush UK

Hey everybody
smiles.gif
I placed an order last Tuesday at the Lush Uk site for a couple of items because with the current exchange rate it's cheaper. I ordered four things, one being a fresh lush mask. A couple days later I received an email telling me that they would be unable to ship the mask due to shelf life, which is fine. I emailed back saying that's okay as long as I'm not charged for it. On their website it says shipping to US is usually 5-7 business days.

Now, it's a full week later and my order is still listed as "pending", and the mask is still listed as part of the order. My question is, is this normal? And how long, if you order from the UK site from the US, does it usually take to arrive?

Thanks in advance! Hopefully I'm not just being overly neurotic about this....

I ordered once from the German website and got my order after four days if I remember correctly.

Has the UK site a hotline you can call and ask? Moreover we get a sending number here for every order where we can follow the order at DHL.

Hiya, I'm in the UK and order from the UK website. ALL of my orders still say 'pending' even after I've recieved them. I have 'pending' orders from two years ago!

I hope that your stuff has arrived (just realised you posted about three days ago!), just wanted to say it's probably best to just ignore that 'pending' message on your account.
Hope that's helped.

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

Okay so I'm going to swallow my words because I just purchased some products from Lush and they are not bad at all. I still don't care for their bath products because I'm just not into body products but I bought a couple of their face products and got some samples as well and I'm liking it! I don't care for them being "natural" and all that; I don't buy into it, but the products worked pretty well with my skin and I'm going to check out their other face products. The thing I don't like though is the solid products, a bit hard for me to get used to.

Re: Lush

Thanks both of you! My stuff arrived the day after I posted this. I was just worried because I live in the US, and I wasn't sure if that was affecting things.

Re: Lush

I have this idea of getting a bathbomb, splitting it in half, and using it in my shower as an "emotibomb" substitute. Because the emotibomb selection is so boring. I wonder how it would work out. Obviously I'd go for on that doesn't have any stuff (i.e. rosebuds) in it.

Re: Lush

I've been lurking at Lush products for years but never really purchased something.

Anyway, recently Lacquerized wrote about Lemony Flutter cuticle butter so I went to a Lush store and purchased it. Have to admit I adore it! I've been using it for only few days but I love the smell of it, and my cuticles do like nice and soft in the morning (I apply it before I go to bed).

And I have to admit I'd rather eat most of Lush products

They simply smell amazingly!

Re: Lush

i bought a bathbomb called... Celebutant or something?
It was part of their Canadian Promoted line... It was huge, FULL of glitter and stars and had canadian flags and streamers inside. It was SO much fun.

Re: Lush

I've just recently started getting REALLY into Lush and all I can say is I'm in love! I was using cynthia silvia stout shampoo and american cream conditioner and was starting to not like them so I switched to Daddy-o shampoo and veganese conditioner. Love this combo so much more! I also got another big shampoo, another dream wash, another dream cream, therapy massage bar, buffy, and a bath bomb, melt, and bubble bar to take my first bath ever! It's was so heavenly

Re: Lush

I love Lush skincare, I have dry skin with some oily areas on my nose and chin.

I use Angels on Bare Skin in the morning, which is a really gentle exfoliator and has lavender in it to balance the skin, the I use Eau Roma Water toner to remove any cleanser traces and then I moisturise with Celestial, which is a moisturiser for sensitive skin, my skin isn't that sensitive but I find it works really well with my skin, keeping everything soft and supple.

At night I take my make up off with Ultra Bland, which is a great product, don't think you have to use loads of it, literally a tiny amount on one finger can be spread around your whole face, rubbed into the make up to dissolve it, it's gentle enough to use around your eyes. I take this off with a hot face cloth or preferably a hot muslin cloth. I then remove any traces with Tea Tree Toner before moisturising with Skin Nanny. This moisturiser is pretty heavy so I wouldn't recommend it to anyone that doesn't have dry skin. Now that it's getting warmer, it's becoming a bit to heavy even for me, so soon enough I'm going to start using Dream Cream (the body moisturiser) as my night cream as it's lighter but still beneficial to my skin.

About 3 times a week I use Dark Angels all over my face in the shower (because it's so messy!) concentrating on my oily areas before rinsing off under the shower head with a face cloth. This stuff can be tricksey and leave traces of black on your face so I make sure there's nothing left in the mirror after I get out of the shower, before toning with Eau Roma Water and then moisturising. A lot of the time when I'm using Dark Angels in the shower I use a bit on my chest to get rid of any little pimples that might be lurking there too.

So that's my regime, I do use other Lush products on my face from time to time as well as shower stuff, massage bars, hair care etc. but these ones are the main ones. I'm looking forward to trying the new solid serums that just came out.

Re: Lush

I used Lush BIG shampoo today for the first time!

It does look gross, I don't like the smell - but the result is awesome!

My hair is really fine without volume and tends to grease - after using this shampoo it feels very clean but still soft and well moisturized.

I wish it would smell a bit better. I will definitely keep using it!
