I second Susannes suggestion.

As for the Clarisonic, how do you apply your cleanser at the moment? Do you pour it into the brush?
I think you could make a solid cleanser work if you applied it first to your face and then massaged it out with the brush, or maybe you could try running the brush against the cleanser to get it on the bristles.

Does Lush make anything that works well as a makeup remover? I couldn't find anything on the site that was specifically for removing makeup.

The new cleanser 9 to 5 is apparently good for 'removing stubborn makeup' accordingly to the Lush website and I know a lot of people also like Ultrabland to take off their makeup.

On another note I got some Karma shower gel a couple of weekends ago and it's super lush, Karma is my favourite scent. I'm looking forward to getting some of the new LE Chameleon bath bombs tomorrow too, apparently they smell good. I like some of the other new bath bombs aswell, apart from Mrs Whippy, the scent just wasn't strong enough.

Summer Pudding? I can't decide if I like it or not. I love the fact it has exfoliators added so it's all lovely and scrubby but the scent is a bit sweet at times.

I was walking by the Lush in the mall and I saw the advertising for "Lovely Jubblies" and went in to check it out-it's 25 bucks for a pot of boob moisturizer. I was put off by this... with "firming" qualities. Nothing is going to tighten those suckers up but surgery-or fake it with a good push up bra.

Is it just me or has Lush changed a lot in the last 5-6 years? They seem to be more political , and the sales girls in my area (there are two stores in this town) are all over you. Perhaps I'm merely cranky in my old age.

My absolute fav Lush product is the seasonal body wash that comes out at Christmas, it is similar to "Rock Star" soap in scent. Too bad it's only once a year.

The shower gel is Snow Fairy.

Yum!

The Lush Spa parties, I've been to a couple of instore parties that were probably similar. The most recent of which was the weekend just gone. Basically it's after store hours, they have demos, special LE products (for example Karma shower gel was one of the most recent and Creamy Candy body lotion is coming up), drinks, competitions, other Lush freebies etc. We even made our own bath bombs! Was great!

 

[Susanne]

Yes, I want Snow Fairy this year as well!

I really wanted to try this last year, but they sold out at my Lush before I could get there, so this winter I'm definitely going to try to get my hands on some!

 

[Mabelle]

i like that lush is political. It's a store with a consience!

It's weird you say that because the last time I was at Lush, the sales people kept talking to me and asking me questions. I probably am being cranky but when I shop, I like to be left to my own devices.

I am in the North-West of Germany! And there are 25 shops in Germany:

Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics

There is no Lush in my town, but I can go to three during the weekends. And you can oder online as well.

I am sorry you have no Lush!

Thanks for the Link

I'm in Hamburg quite often, so now I can make a list for my next visit

Love the Honey I Washed the Kids soap. I keep some on hand to use when I have houseguests as everyone seems to love it.

I seem to be the only person who does not love the Ocean Salt face scrub. It leaves a greasy film on my skin, my skin just does not like it. I prefer Angels on Bare Skin for a scrub - but in general I prefer Lush bath and body products to the facial skin care. I do like the Tea Tree Water toner, that is quite lovely.

No, I am not a big fan of it neither. I also prefer Dark Angels or my VAE from MAC - Ocean Salt is just too much for my skin, even if it tends to be oily.
