I just bought:

Ultrabland
Caca Marron henna
Ambrosia shave cream (for my husband... he's a convert... which *really* says a lot for the appeal of Lush)
Angels on Bare Skin

... and received for free:

Flying Fox shower gel - 100ml
Lush Pud bath ball
Snowcake soap
Hybrid Shampoo/Conditioner bar
Christmas Kisses bubble bar
Letters to Santa bath bar

I think the freebies were worth more than $50 CDN, so that's gotta be a pretty sweet deal. Ooh, I'm gonna smell so nice...

Hi Ladies!!!

I'm soooo glad i found this thread!!! I, too, am a very big lush fan, and i can't believe no one has yet mentioned FRESH FARMACY!

I have extremely sensitive skin. I rarely wear foundation (just light pressed powder) because it almost always seems to make my face break out.... until i found Fresh Farmacy
smiles.gif
It finally curbed my breakouts!! It doesn't leave my skin feeling either slimy or cakey or dry or anything. It has become a PERMANENT staple in my beauty regime!

Coal Soap is good for my face, too. It really works well on my boyfriend, though.

I have tried the Celestial cream, but there's something in it that makes me breakout
ssad.gif
Which is sad because I paid about 20 bucks for it =/ Hate when that happens...

My favorite mask, which does wonders for my skin is, surprise surprise, Cosmetic Warrior! It is FANTASTIC! I also use Catastrophe Cosmetic, which is nice.

My shower gels are:
FREEZE - oooo love it.. you know that minty feeling your mouth gets immediately after you brush? imagine that over your whole body.. it's SO refreshing!!
Happy Hippy - It's a really lovely grapefruit scent. I love grapefruit.

I've tried Flying Fox, and it's not so bad either, but I wouldn't buy it probably. I just use it when I got to Pimptress's house. hehe

(she is a big lush fan, too, and turned me onto it!)

Dusting Powders:
Candy - It smells so sweet and good. My boyfriend loves it on me! It really helps to keep me fresh, especially in the sweaty, gross summer heat.
Sexy Underwear - NEVER put underwear on again without it! Especially useful during periods. My boyfriend hasn't complained

The scent is truly lovely.

Soap Bars:
Rock Star - It smells like sweet, pink candy. I'm crazy about it.
Alkmaar - It's soooo moisturizing, and if you like the way Sexy Undewear smells, this is like the bar soap version of the scent. It smells absolutely delish, and it makes my skin incredibly soft.

Massage Bars:
Each Peach - So refreshing! I apply it after I get out of the shower before I go to bed at night. It soaks into my skin all night and leaves me feeling soft and supple when I wake up. Plus, the scent is really great.. a really great pick-me-upper, and blends well with the Happy Hippy shower gel. Not to mention it leaves my bed linens smelling awesome.
smiles.gif

Fever - I like to use this after a shower when I'm going to be going out for the night. It has a really rich sexy scent that leaves my man wanting more!
smiles.gif
It also is great for when i'm feeling kinda crappy.. it always helps me to feel "sexier" hehe.
Soft Coeur - It's a gentle scent and fits well in the shampoo tin containers so that you can take it with you! It's great on hands! I enjoy it!

I have one of the shampoo bars, but i don't remember what it is.. i dont' use it anymore since I started spending quite a bit to get my hair professionally colored. but i liked it before that!

I have so many bathbombs it would be impossible to list them all...

The crumble bubble bars are great, and there's something called "elixir" or something that's a glittery blue block.. it leaves my bathwater SO cute! and if i dunk my head once or twice, it leaves glitter in my hair! voila! i love it!!!!
smiles.gif


my best friend has the roma eau toner (or whatever it's called), but I'm not sure how much she likes it... personally, I prefer Burt's Bees Garden Tomato Toner. it works WONDERS for collecting any leftover soap, and it tightens my pores nicely without aggitating my skin.

as far as freebies go the chicago LUSH store is really great about it! they ahve given me free samples of everything I've ever asked for (and sometimes i ask for 4 or 5).

anyway, i'm so glad i found this thread! i didn't know about the big freeeee! and i just checked their website, it's still going on! muchos gracias ladies!!

xoxo,
dg

OH i forgot several items!

Oceansalt - WOW I LOVE IT! It's the first "exfoliator" that REALLY exfoliates me!! I use it once a week (sometimes every other) on my face, and it helps keep any flakiness at baY!

Big Shampoo - it really does a great job of ridding your hair of product build up, HOWEVER, if you have colored hair, BE WARE! It will strip the color from your hair
ssad.gif
I found this out the hard way and haven't used it in a while now...

Daddy-Oh - It's awesome for blondes! It works just like Shimmerlights or like Paul Mitchell's purple shampoo. If you're like me and you have light blonde and darker colors mixed, it's still okay to use because the purple doesn't affect the dark colors, but it does still refresh your blondes!

Marilyn Monroe - left my hair sooo soft and silky and smelling FANTASTIC. I never used it to lighten the color like some girls have, but I loved it as a shampoo.


ok.. i think that's it... hehe.

Imperialis has caused my cheeks to breakout and I rarely breakout, so I won't be using it again. I'll stick to lushes bubble bars and soaps.

Yeah I can't use their face creams either, they've almost all got cocoa butter and it makes my skin FREAK. It's ok on my body, but it's too rich and heavy for my face

Just before Christmas I was walking back to Wimbledon (of tennis fame) rail station and got a very strong smell of Lush which I thought was a bit odd as I couldn't see a store and there certainly hadn't been one in Wimbledon previously. When I got home I checked their website and they didn't list a store in Wimbledon either. This week I walked further past the station and my sense of smell was correct - a new Lush store here in Wimbledon.

I absolutely adore lush.
And I work at Lush Winnipeg, so it's pretty much fabulous.

Not to mention we're in the same mall as The Bay.
MAC is but a three minute walk from me every day.

I'm in heaven.

I tried my Something Wicked Comes This Way bath melt - first time I tried it. It was ok, but wow, it's jam-packed with glitter, and it's the very fine sort that gets stuck everywhere. I do like the scent of this melt though.

I tried Crash Course in Skincare Fresh face mask last night and it was great! My face was so so so smooth afterwards without any exfoliating (and i love exfoliating me!) and my skin was all balanced and slightly matte in a natural way and it just felt clearer.

I'm trying to use up my stash, i buy so much there but never have time to use it all! Used Candy Cane BBS in bath with face mask.

They just discontinued the glitter ones of these...check out the website, they're bright purple with pink and blue cocoa butter chunks and in the same scent! I wish I liked the scent...
