This is more a body soap and scrub for the shower! It smells deliciously like coconut. I usually don't like coconut smell, but this one is awesome.

Oh, and I want a L'Occitane hand soap for my bathroom soon!

^ aha! it sounds very nice! lol at myself though for thinking of chocolate before coconut when hearing coco!

lots of people talk about the porrige soap... apparently it has oats in it! sounds quite interesting!

I have been using Mask of Magnaminty and I am in love with it.

I usually don't go to Lush because of the smell of the stores - I find it strong and it annoys me. But I found this post and decided to try the mask. I use once a week though.

I haven't tried that mask yet because I feel like its an over priced version of the Queen Helene mask but I am a lush slut so I'll give in and end up buying it when my next tube of Queen Helene is uphaha. But try using that mask right after exfoliating. Exfoliating helps your blood flow which helps bring all the stuff in your pores to the surface, then the clay/mint combo after is really nice at getting all that gunk out. It always makes my skin feel brand new after.

Lush is awesome!! I went to the Lush inside Macy's last weekend and I was overwhelmed with the smell but I didn't mind. I bought two Think Pink Bath Bombs (used one and had heart confetti in it and it was awesome!!), Sakura Bath Bomb and Comforter Bubble Bar (a full size one since I received half of the bubble bar of the giveaway that I won) and I do want to go back and get more of Lush's products!!!!

You picked up awesome stuff. I think Think Pink is adorable, but I never smell ANYTHING once it is in use. But the other two items you got, LOVE THEM.

And agreed, Lush can be a little over powering.

Hopefully that's easier for you than it is for me hahaha. I've been trying to get my mom into Lush, she's been with me to the store and has tried some of their stuff. She just refuses to buy it, she says it's too over priced for what it is.

But now if I give her some of my stuff to try out then it's "oh thats so nice!" and asks for a slice of soap. Yet refuses to get her own.

But I did drag my male cousin to a Lush event because we were in the area and I knew it was going on, he was SUPER apprehensive about going in he kept say oh I'll just sit in the car. And I dragged him in, that boy is now in love with Miranda and Godmother soap hahaha. And he knows all about Retro items because of Miranda being retro so if he find out I am going to buy stuff online I always get a text "u r orderin lushonline? gimme some miranda" shit cracks me up.

I am absolutely loving Eau Roma Water and Fresh Farmacy cleanser at the moment, how much my skin has improved after using these products for around a month now is pretty insane. My breakouts have dramatically reduced and if I do get a blemish it's only one at a time, rather than a full-on break out. I'm beyond happy with the results! Plus I love the smell of Eau Roma water too hehe.

I did however have a bit of a bad experience with Ocean Salt scrub, it really irritated my skin leaving it red and blotchy which I was quite shocked at. I let customer services know about my experience through e-mail yesterday and they replied this morning (which I didn't expect!) and even offered to send me out some products as an apology. Their customer service exceeds my expectations again and again, I really do love going in-store the staff are so approachable and friendly. I was shocked (in a good way!) that even though they're a large company they still personally take on board the feedback of their consumers.

Lush's customer service is pretty good.

When you used ocean salt and is upset your skin was it on your face or body?

The first time i used it, i found it very harsh on my skin... but the second time it was really nice! my boyfriend said the exact same thing... its like.. teh alcohol in it was super intense.... it was weird

I got the foot kit today... OH MY WORDDDDDD! My tootsies are so nice

i put on the volcanic mask, wrapped my feet in plastic wrap and sat down for like an hourish. Your only supposed to leave it on for 10 mins or so, but my feet need the extra care! I then washed it off and gave them a scrub with the "to the embassy" scrubber/pumic dealie. I dont know how i felt about this product. It smelled fantastic. Seemed to help my feet, but its once of those products that going to be used up in no time flat... i dont know if i would purcahse is full size. I used it once, and theres already a big dent in it... its like it melts! I then followed with Peid de pepper foot lotion. First, lets talk about the smell. This is amazing!!! It smells like wonderful cloves and ginger and everything i would want to roll around in all day. you only need a little, but it has this fantastical cooling effect on your feet and leaves them feeling so nice, soothed and hydrated!! i then rubbed in a bit og lemon flutter. i rubbed it into my problem areas, ie the outside of my big toe, my heals and then a bit into my nails (hands and feet). While my feet still feel like a dream, my hands are pretty good too. i mean, i made dinner right afterwards, so i suppose the chopping and washing undid a bit of the effects, they still feel very nice nice!!!
in conclusion; get teh kit!!! get it!!! you know you waannnnt to!

I tested it out originally on my face, then I tried it out a second time on my cheek a few days later which gave me the same reaction again so I did a test on a small area of my leg which became red and blotchy too. I guess the ingredients are just too harsh for my skin/something just didn't agree with me.

Yeah I tested it out twice and just got the same result unfortunately

I really wanted to love the product too! It was one I was really looking forward to trying out.

i was eyeing the foot kit too, but i got the naked kit last time and i only ended up enjoying like 1 of the products (buffy---works nice and moisturizing, but disappears so quickly!) it was my first lush purchase ever, btw. i can't say i'm in love with the brand. it's okay. but not something i'd repurchase.

 

[Susanne]

I want to try their new Vulcano foot mask, their Stepping Stone foot scrub and Smitten handcream soon!

 

[Misoxx]

I love lush!! I think it's quite sweet they include free gifts when you order online, I got a free bathbomb! (supernova)

loveeee their lip balms.
