LUSH Products??

[pinkwolf]

Hello Everyone, :)

I was wondering if anyone uses these products and if so what is your review? I wanted to place a nice sized order next Friday (payday) :hamster:

I noticed that their products were a little high but very tempting to purchase nonethless. I am very interested in the "Trichomania " (which is like coconut cream pie moisturizing shampoo for dry, curly hair).

Thank you to all in advance. :sunny:

I've only bought one product from there, but it was great! I've definitely been enjoying my karma komba bar shampoo. I can't help too much, but you should definitely check out the reviews on the site to see if a product will be right for you. :)

I use the solid bar shampoo (when I can afford it) and I LUV it!

I've used a lot of their products and have been very happy! They have bubble bars that you crumble up to make bubbles in your bath that smell sooo yummy! I have had that hair bar and it was okay. I'm picky when it comes to hair products and I didn't feel that these conditioned enough for my hair.

i wasn't overwhelmed by the stuff of theirs i've used. the moisturiser was ok, but really not not worth the money. the toner was a bit blah, and the facial soap was absolutely total rubbish.

i haven't found anything else in their store that doesn't assault my sense of smell or wallet enough for me to want to try it.

i think Lush stuff is perhaps a bit overpurfumed, overpriced, and maybe seems a bit greener and less chemically than it is. but its better than The Body Shop by far, and i seem to be in the minority, so you'll probably love it. :)

do they have a store near you that you could go into and smell and feel and try stuff at? that might help. i guess if they did you'd not be ordering it online.

I adore LUSH! I use trichomania shampoo (I have curly hair) and I love the smell. However my hair is really dry and once a week or so I have to use a more moisturizing shampoo like 'Rehab.' I also use the Veganase conditioner. While I like the conditioner, I don't like the smell of it and trichomania together. So when my trichomania is gone I'm going to try another one to see if I can get a better scent combo.

I use Fresh Farmacy soap, and it's really helped my skin a lot. I also use Sweet Japanese Girl to exfoliate a few times a week and Tea Tree Water toner.

Hmm...let's see, what else...oh! I like King of the Mods for controlling frizz, but it doesn't style curls all that great on it's own, it's more like a smoothing cream.

As for bath goodies, the bubble bars are GREAT, especially Bathos, that one is my fave. :)

Yes, I am a cosmetic junkie.

I just started using these products and totally LOVE them!! Just made another big order and cannot wait to get it!

Me too!!

I just ordered more of the trichomania shampoo and jungle conditioner. It works great on my dry, sometimes frizzy curls. My daughter liked the shampoo bar that gives your hair shine, can't remember the name.

I've also tried their deodorant bar and they sent me a sample of the coalface...both were very good.

I like Lush products a lot. :sunny:

My house smells of Lush when we've all had showers!

We use the go green shampoo and veganese conditioner, I use the sweet japanese girl face bar, the imperialis moisturiser and dream cream body cream...

Len always chooses a bath bomb for us when we go in...I direct her to the vegan ones...she especially loves the lavender 'ikkle baby baff'!

Lush rocks...Chris uses all their boy products too, only way I can get him to moisturise!

I like Lush a lot as far as quality, variety, and their general ability to tickle my girly-sense appeal pink... my only complaint is the prices and how fast the bar soaps melt into nothing. I get 6 or 7 showers out of a bar if I'm lucky, and at anywhere from $6-$10 a pop, my bank account takes quite a beating from LUSH...

[Loulelou]

Where do you store your bars? They're best stored on a wire rack so they can dry, and then they last for ages! I use a shower puff with mine, and that makes them last even longer!
For hair: I have really thick, dry, curly hair, and I swear by Jungle conditioner. It's amazing! I never use anything else-tried one of the other lush ones for curly hair and was nowhere near as good. I can use it with either Reincarnate or Karma Komba shampoos, and it works very well. I'm a bit addicted to Lush... everything is from there! The make-up shop, B Never Too Busy To Be Beuatiful is amazing as well, and all vegan!

[Earthly Delight]

I got "demon in the dark" cus it says its vegan---but its got a seriously thick layer of wax on it!!!! I seriously doubt that's not beeswax. :( I also got I should coco

Their soaps dry me out I found, but smell amazing... I definately would never use it for my face, but hands and limbs are ok.

[tearhsong2]

I love the bath bombs from there. I'm on a pretty tight budget, though, so I haven't tried much else there but one of the soaps and that was a while ago (and I don't remember the name of it).

[Earthly Delight]

I got mine on a three for one sale!! I got 33 bucks worth of soap for about 11 bucks!

[pandora9kry]

I enjoy Lush products immensely, but they are very fragrant.

The Dream Cream is great for dry skin.
And if you're not allergic to lichi fruit, the deodorant is great. If you're allergic to lichi, it can give you a rash. Also, be warned, if for some reason you go more than one day without a shower, DON'T put more on. It'll keep working, and if you apply more it will give you a rash.

I kind of like Lush. They are nice on occasion, for a special bath or something, but I find them too strong and smelly to use on a regular basis. And too expensive!

[Badger_Lady]

The solid shampoos and conditioners are MUCH more economical than any liquid alterantive - I have thick hair down to my waist and a £5 bar of shampoo lasts me around 6 months (the conditioner slightly longer).

[Kiz]

Eh, I don't use them. They don't seem to suit my hair. I'm not big on their face products, either, I just like their luscious bath bombs and the like. I actually just got a huge load recently as gifts. I was very disappointed to find that the "Black Pearl" bath bomb has been discontinued.

[BelovedDreamer]

love it (:
they dont test on animals, they use minimal packaging, they recycle and its basically all good! go lush!

[Hope62]

What are the Lush products? I have been using the Veriuni

I've used the rehab shampoo, retread conditioner and american cream conditioner.. it leaves your hair smelling yummy and shiny!

I've been using their facial scrub 'angels on bare skin' for almost a year now, it seriously does wonders for the skin!

I wasn't too keen on their soap jellies, it just got too messy and gross.

^-^

My sister has bought them and I've tried her stuff. Not really impressed.

I LOVE Lush!
I use the Ultimate Shine shampoo bar (I alternate with a Henna/Rhassoul called Reincarnate, it smells SOOOO good) and Jungle conditioner. I'm in looove :)

I use Aquamarina on my face, I'm not crazy about the smell but I figure all that seaweed has to be good for something. I used Angels on Bare Skin for a while but found that even though I have very dry skin, I was getting small blemishes occasionally, so I switched. So far, clear great skin! I use Babyface at night to take off my makeup.

I also use Karma soap, and I alternate with another one...don't remember the name but it's purple and glitter. Lastly I use Coconut deodorant, Karma Kreme lotion, and Karma solid perfume (sometimes Go Green if I'm in the mood to smell REALLY earthy). I don't have any of the moisturizers, they're a little too expensive. I just use a kiss my face one. But beyond that almost my entire regimen is Lush...I LOVE it!
Someday, I want to try the body butters, and the fresh face masks. I'd like to branch out to other conditioners and shampoos as well, I'm going to dye my hair blonde for the summer (my natural color) so I might try the Blonde solid shampoo.

Really, the price is not that bad. My Ultimate Shine bar is only half gone and has lasted since November and I use it almost every other day. The Reincarnate bar is the same thing, the last forever! Even the soaps last for eternity. I keep them in a container OUTSIDE of the shower. If you leave them in there of course they'll melt!

When I tried the shampoo/conditioner it wasn't very good for my hair but pretty much everything else i've tried is awesome, love the soaps and moisturisers!
