Coconut soap, you mean I Should Coco? I loved it but it gave me this horrid burning rash. Shame, as it smells heavenly.

My faves are the Candy Fluff & Silky Underwear Dusting Powders and the Eau Roma toner. My husband used to use some crappy shaving cream but is now hooked on the Ambrosia shaving cream... which is actually quite a big deal considering how he usually tries to cheap out on toiletries.

I use EVERYTHING LUSH!!! shampoo, conditioner, bath products, skin care, etc. I LOVE their skincare items, I'm 41 years young and my skin has never been as healthy as it is now. I now have dh converted and he only uses lushes too!

Hi ambriel! *waves*, I definitely converted my mother and brother to Lush, we all three are addicted to the coconut & almond smoothie.

Just want to rave a bit more about LUSH...I've been VERY good about taking care of my skin ever since I "discovered" LUSH a year ago, and my skin just GLOWS now! I use Sweet Japanese Girl, Breath of Fresh Air toner to remove the excess cocoa butter and almond bits, and then Celestial moisturizer. I also used to trash Buffy the Backside Slayer (for the smell, I couldn't get past the smell), but I gave it another try and WOW. The smell doesn't bother me nearly as much now that I see the results!

I don't know if US Lush's are doing Free '05 but if they are then get yourself down there quick, you can have anything that was made in 2005 free (apart from normal gift boxes) and any Xmas gift box free, if you spend £15, some people have ended up with £50 gift boxes free for spending £15! I really wanted Gorgeous cream (worth £35) but ofcourse those were snapped up as freebies on 1st day and i went on 2nd. An

I just started using Lush's skincare products. I use Coalface, Tea Tree Water and Imperialis moisturzer. It's too early for me to tell if it's working right now, but we'll see in a month.

Does anyone know if the freebie thing (where you spend 45 & get last years products free) is just a one day event? I am near the SF stores... man I hope it's still going on

New raves: I've just started using angels on bare skin (thanks to ALLISWAN! <3) and it's amazing -- the smell, the texture, everything. My skin is looking great. Though -- in the latest lush life says that their cleansers should be used once a day, at night. I wash my face twice a day and Im wondering if any of you girls use em twice a day like me or what

I am slowly converting like, every type of product I use to LUSH -- discovering new things all the time to take over for the so-so products of yore :p AoBS for an exfoliator, breath of fresh air is nice as a toner, but i also like the sea aloe toner ive been using by Zia skincare. The strokes is amazing for my hair, and the masks are f'ing incredible. I also just got smitten handcream and well, you can guess how i feel about it!

I want to find an awesome moisturizer by them! I currently use clinique DDM GEL because i have combo skin that is relatively sensitive, but it's not cutting it now for the dry patches I have. Recs? I am eyeing Ultralight...

Sadly, LUSH has become my absolute obsession, surpassing even mac; I haven't even HEARD of or looked at Lingerie til today ! And the last thing I bought was Dame in a Dress Lipgelee -- the only thing ive purchased in a long while.

Now for all my co-lushes/mac fiends -- What are your LUSH/MAC must-haves?

The Big Free event (spend $45, get a free Xmas gift or bulk item) IS indeed going on still, not sure how much is left at different locations so get down there. Orlando (Florida Mall, not the airport) still had a couple BIG gifts left, but some other stores are only giving away soap bars or BBS, call and ask for availability....if you go to LUSH forums (link is at the top of the NA website, to the right a bit) and sign up, you can find all KINDS of crazy deals. I have two coupons for a buy one get one free offer LUSH is doing for their top 5 selling products: Ocean Salt, Dream Cream, Avobath, and two others I can't remember off the top of my head. I don't think I'll be using them, is anyone interested?

Yessss.

I went yesterday! I had a double your pleasure card too but thought I'd do the 45$ deal first as I won't be back in SF for a bit.

I bought:

sonic death monkey (i smell like a big chocolate orange mmmm)
angels on bare skin
celestial moisturizer (sooo gentle but very rich, i will use it as a night cream)
therapy massage bar

My total was 46 bucks and change (perfect) and i recvd the eat drink and be merry bath bomb set for free -- 23 dollar value? OH this wonderful woman working there gave me a free Wow Wow mask too

Love her...

I am loving everything I got -- now I have to decide what I want to get for the freebie deal -- maybe dream cream...

I found out yesterday that my brother absolutely LOVES Flying Fox shower gel! There was this amazing smell wafting from our bathroom and I thought, doesn't smell of what I just used in the shower, and it was him. No wonder my 500mL bottle was emptying faster than I thought!

Am a bit so-so about the buttercreams - could just be my nose but they all smell the same, citrusy! I don't mind, but it sounded like there was some variation...hmm.
