hey have you tried the shower jellies? Those look soooo much fun! They did have a caution sign by them because they might melt. Most of the things in my bag at the moment are bath bombs (love them!) but i also wanted to try the dream cream as well. i'm decided to hold off on trying any shampoos/conditioners at the moment since i do have psorasis on my scalp and i FINALLY just got it under control with some medicated shampoo/liquid. Better not chance it! the soaps however -i'm game! What about hand creams? what's your favorite? I'm just going to put a few things in my "bag" for now sort of like a wish list and when i get some money i'll order them

oh man, Allie- you've you shouldn't have shown me the site!

Soaps:
My two favorites are Flying Fox (shower gel) and Coconut Almond Smoothie, which I use as a shave gel. If you like the smell of chocolate and/or coffee over jasmine and/or honey, then get Sonic Death Monkey. Those 2 are in my opinion, the two best shower gels, but Olive Branch is also mighty popular (the ONE I haven't tried! Tramp and Happy Hippy are good, but not AS good as FF or SDM) I use Happy (bar soap) in my bathroom in the soap dish by my sink, mostly because I like how it smells but I'm not into using bar soaps in the shower. I've had small slices of Ooh La La and Figs and Leaves too, and both were good, but Happy is my favorite bar so far, though I've heard Honey I Washed The Kids is awesome.

My best friend uses the jellies and buttercreams (they make my skin act up...a certain amount of glycerine and my skin'll do that

) and she swears by them and says they're really fun to use. So I'm missing out. She cannot get enough of the Ring of Roses buttercream.

There's hardly a bad bath bomb in the bunch, and I've tried a whole bunch of those. Romance in a Stone has a lot of little flower bits in there that you will have to pick out of your tub afterwards, and I BELIEVE Golden Slumbers does as well. Another good use for Bath Bombs is to crush them up and put them in a little sachet and use them as air freshners.

Dream Cream is totally awesome. Helping Hands is a wonderful hand moisturizer but the smell is really not that impressive. It's kind of so light it's nonexistent.

OOOH Totally!! I spend like 3 hours in there whenever I go. Plus I get gift boxes for xmas with the 10% discount vouchers they put in

I love honey I shrunk the kids and I buy flying fox by the truckload

It gives my DH a headache though

My daughter is completely obsessed with LUSH! She currently has blue hair and finds that the Lush conditioners are the only ones that dont strip the colour out. She also loves the bath bombs which look so pretty. The last one made the water yellow (yeah dont say anything!) and had really pretty sparkly bit and rose petals in it.
(I remember being 17 once!!)

silentnate · Mar 31, 2007

Heh- I've been shopping at Lush for over ten years, nice to see they have made it to the USA

Used to get my male macho friends to try their face packs whilst loved their shaving cream

Now I have a beard I spend ages trying get the glitter from their bath bombs out of it...

Getting glitter in your beard is a bit strange at my age

rosiemac · Mar 31, 2007

I love Lush!

The girl i work with gave all of us at her wedding a Lush bath bomb with rose petals in with a label on of the date of their wedding

kiwideus · Mar 31, 2007

I love Lush!!!!! I only use products from there - nothing else.

Right now I use:
Shampoo - Godiva - but I think I will try the Karma.

Soap - Demon in the Dark and Sexy Peel.

Moisuriser - Dream Cream - it works wonders for my dry skin.

I go there all the time, the girls there know me.

I always ask what their new products are every time I go there.

I love their bath bombs, my favourite is the Black Pearl - I love their little pearls of wisdom inside.

WHen I buy gifts for people, I always go for Lush - you can never go wrong with them!

That is so cool! I wonder if they do things like that in the US yet...it would be a good thing to throw in with their necklaces for my bridesmaids

It's still not very big over here, yet. Very limited in its availability...of course, they have a ton more ground to cover and way less population density.

All I can say is that I hope hope hope they never discontinue Flying Fox or Godiva or I will simply die.

How do you get your Godiva to not melt???

Thanks Allie!!!!!

We've always had LUSH stores in Canada but I couldn't get into the store since all the scents gave me a headache instantly. I found their online website last year and looked around and gave some gifts and all my friends love it. I can't remember the name of the face soap I tried, but it's black and I think made from seaweed? I loved it since my face is prone to be oily and it felt great after using it. I also heard good things about the Dream Cream.

The only thing I had to get over was using black soap on my face - it just looked weird!

I have to stay away from that place though, since I could spend a lot of money quickly.

The soap you have in mind is Coalface, which my sister is into.

And as for the spending money thing...well...my dad and I just went in there to get things for my mom for her Easter baset and Mother's Day and for my sister's Easter Basket and we spent nearly $150!!

Ok, ok, so I got a little treat for myself as well

Did you get a tin to keep the bar in? I keep mine in the tin and its fine.

kiwideus · Apr 7, 2007

I went to Lush today and got the Karma shampoo bar - it smells great! I was getting sick of Godiva.

Also got some sexy peel soap.

The lady in the shop recommends Mud Flats. The colour is not appealing but it is the most popular one at the moment. Apparently it is great on the skin. I might get that next time, if it is available.

minxie · Apr 7, 2007

Ah this stuff is heavenly...I love walking into their shops...the smell is so gorgeous!

My recent purchases were henna for a bit of colour to my hair and my addiction...bath bombs in every scent/colour possible!

chromodactyl · Apr 10, 2007

their hone soap and they used to make a psychadelic soap that u run under the bath tap for bubbles-is smelt amazing and turns the water blue.but check out the honey soap-its the best ever!!!!!!!You will eat it on toast,croissants,cats

kiwideus · Apr 11, 2007

I love their Karma shampoo bar, its so much better than Godiva on my hair!

althekitty · Apr 11, 2007

Hehehe, I love Lush too! All the stuff is great and great pressies for everyone. I have some vegan friends and I can always find something nice for them in Lush. My Boyfriend bless him, gets himself in a bit of a mess though. In the shower thinking that the moisturising bar is soap or that the shampoo is soap!!! He has been all glittered up before, lol. I have been called up to the bathroom a few times to explain to a confused boyfriend, hehehe. The stuff there is great, they had a lovely Valentines gift set this year, i had to have it!

chromodactyl · Apr 11, 2007

the chocolate heart massage bars

anakat · Apr 11, 2007

I was in Lush this morning I bought Ooh La La soap, it smells wonderful

ssmith0385 · Apr 11, 2007

I am a big fan of their bath bombs and bubble bars!! But by the time I pay US shipping it's realllly a splurge!

Am I the only one here that loves LUSH???
