and idk if you already know the whole deal about how creamed almond/coconut smoothie smells like neither almonds nor coconut.

but it doesn't.

it is still pretty okay tho. as its own thing.

no
but they are: yummy yummy yummy, which is strawberries (and basalmic vinegar!) it's AWESOME.
and rub rub rub, which is like ocean salt, but finer salt, and a better smell. imo.

i like i should coco, but it is indeed scratchy.
trichomania i haven't tried, but it smells pretty coconutty.
coolaulin, i echo clotty's sentiments here.
one of the shower jellys (i can't remember its name atm) smells like a pina colada, so kind of coconutty.
and nutts massage bar has a lot of coconut oil in it.

i don't like coconut personally, but we get heeeeaps of people asking for it.

I do not not not like coconut smells. Or attempts thereof. Fail.

And also: Dear Lush, FYFUCKIN I:
Patchouli smells are NOT GREEN SMELLS.

Chyia has decided they are brown smells. Brown.
So you can just stuff that, mkay?

Dear rest of y'all:
Now what?

:yuck:

Chyia, grrrrrrrr

Wow! I'm drooling with jealousy right now odessa. Which Lush store do you work in?

I'm dying to try yummy shower gel & vanishing cream

I bought that yum shower gel stuff for my sister. It smells so good. If you like the sweet smelling lush products you'll like it. ANd it lookes like strawberry milkshake!

so i've decided to splurge on some lush for myself.
the problem is, when i went to the store i absoltely couldn't make up my mind what to get (and my budget is very limited, so i could not just buy all the things i thought looked absolutely fabulous)

any recommendation about anything that is particularly good from lush?

i do know. but reading a 24 page thread is like going into the store - tons of good stuff and i suck at picking just one.

so i thought i'd take whatever recommentdation directly follows my post you see? or the first 2.

Has anyone tried the porridge soap? omg, it really does smell good enough to eat!

Herbalism (cleanser) is the only thing that keeps my skin clear.

Im kinda disappoined with Lush lately after finding out that some of their products contain sodium laurel sulphate and parabens; v toxic!

I never took a big interest in cosmetics, but I was quite eager to sample the Lush range after everyone here gave such good reviews. I got even more interested when I went onto the website and discovered that they were all-vegan! There are no Lush stores where I live unforch, but since I'm staying in Leicester I made sure to pay a visit. Wowee, did everything look ridiculously cute! I had great fun going around smelling all the different products The staff were really friendly and informative too. I bought the Ultra-Bland Cleanser on the recommendation of one girl. I don't really like it 'cause I like my cleansers to have a bihha LATHER. Leave me feeling REFRESHED, ya know? This one is very nourishing, but I can never seem to get it all off and it leaves my skin feeling kind of oily.

Over the past two weeks I have treated myself to:

Heavenly Bodies Butter Cream

Smells so delish, want to eat it + looks charming to boot. Again, it is lacking in the LATHER department but the smell more than makes up for it CHOCOLAAAATE

Nutts Masage Bar

Well, this is my first time using a solid moisturiser and I <3 it. It smells so gorge, I just want to eat myself up after using it. Am storing in the fridge, along with Heavenly Bodies butter cream.

Seanick Solid Shampoo Bar


Godiva Solid Shampoo Bar


Caca Brun Henna

By far the best (and also the messiest!) dye I've ever used. I grated three squares into a bowl, added hot water and mixed 'til it was smooth and gungey. I then worked the gunge into my hair like I would a normal dye and left for about two hours. Washing it off is very messy business. I went into the shower to do it. It's a lot of hassle and stained my nails green but it's nice to know that, unlike regular dyes, it's actually good for my hair. I couldn't be more pleased with the results, but I think I'll leave it in a bit longer next time.

Breath of Fresh Air Toner - Love it. Everything a toner should be, no probs here.

Vit-E Toner Tab - Have yet to use. Great value for 75p tho!

Porridge Oats Soap

Have yet to use but OMG IT'S MY FAVOURITE ALREADY PURELY FOR THE SMELL <333

lather is bad for your face skin.

i hart buttercreams.

i am fond of the non-lather factor of those too.

except i CAN get mine to lather bc i'm the lush genie.

I love the lather off the shampoo bars. Can't believe they last so long. Such good value!

Does the tub go all yucky when you use the Porridge soap?

well this is good news for me. because i really cannot use normal dye. not after last time. so it's a relief to hear a good review of something that won't make half my hair fall out. how dark did it make your hair?
