For my sister and I, Lush is a very dear store. We first went to a smaller shop in London, where I was finally able to understand why so many people LOVE Lush! The atmosphere was one thing, but the quality and the ingredients used made the experience a super A++++... if it was graded.
Anywho, a Lush just happened to open around us and, as we haven't been to one in about a year, we decided to go together and see what trouble we could get into. The whole store was booming with music that people twenty feet away could hear, and it was troublesome to try and talk to the salespeople, but nonetheless I have an awesome haul to share with you!
Massage Bars
While I'm still learning as to how to use these (if you can give me a better idea, tell me in the comments!), these are the two that I picked up: Strawberry Feels Forever and From Dusk till Dawn.
I had seen From Dusk till Dawn featured in many Youtube videos and the reviews online seemed to give it a thumbs up, and it smells absolutely lovely. It kind of has this pez-like scent (do they still make those?) but it isn't overpowering. It also doesn't seem to make me sparkle which, surprisingly, Strawberry Feels Forever did.
The Strawberry Feels Forever is, of course, strawberry-scented, and I bought it on impulse. I knew that if I didn't buy it, I'd probably regret it, and it smells perfect! It's not overpowering on the skin (I have a very sensitive smell at times), and seems to give just a hint of scent when worn for a while.
This cute little display is called Bunch of Carrots (Bubble Bar). I'm pretty sure that this one is seasonal and, since I wanted to hit the fifty dollar mark (if you spent more than fifty, you had the opportunity to spin a wheel and get a free prize--who doesn't want that?!), I bought it, even though it was a little overpriced for my liking. Thankfully they don't smell like carrots, but rather "clean"--not strongly perfumed like some of their products. The smell somewhat reminds me of a plain Dove soap bar, which I rather love, but I didn't think this product was anything out of the ordinary.
Bath Bombs
Who goes to Lush and doesn't buy a bath bomb? Not me!--well, at least not this time ;). I have heard brilliant things about the Dragons Egg, which smells heavenly, and the Pink mini bath bomb was too cute to pass over! I was going to buy sexbomb as well, but I couldn't get myself to fancy the smell of it (sorry guys!). Bath bombs are totally fun and popular but, knowing that I can only sit in a bath for about five to ten minutes, I can't bear myself to use it. I saw a tip on Pinterest stating that you can crumple the bomb and place it around a room (placed on something like a bag, of course) and the whole room will smell delicious! I will most likely try this technique rather than using it in a bath and, if it's the best thing in the world, I'll tell you :)
I'm just adding this picture of the Pink bath bomb just because the flowers are so adorable on it, and it has a very nice presentation!
So, do you go to Lush often? Have you tried making any dupes of your own? I noticed that a lot of products were a bit pricey, and I probably will try making my own copies, but I felt like treating myself, and I strongly believe that every woman needs some pampering! Plus, does anyone else enjoy the fact that they show who made the product, with a sticker of their face? So cute!
