LUSH!!!!!!

I finally went to my local Lush store the other day. They were having 2 promotions going on and I of course did both. The first one was to bring in a used/new donation of clothing/shoes for Haiti. When you did this you would receive a free item. The second one was spend $50, you get your choice of leftover Christmas presents for free. I caught the sales people at Lush off guard when I brought in my donation, I guess I was the first one so they were really excited. The girl was clapping and all kinds of stuff but anyway, she told me that they hadn't put together anything so I could just pick out 3 items to sample. This was totally awesome....until.... the guy who worked there decided that was too generous so he put together the most stingy sample pack I've ever seen. Normally, I wouldn't mind but that fact was that the girl was offering for me to pick what I wanted to try out at home. Anyway, I got a teeny tiny sample of Helping Hands hand cream (barely enough for a full hand application), a bigger (still tiny though) sample of Charity Pot, and a small sample of Karma soap.

On to what I paid for:

• New! solid shampoo for my sister $9.45
• Porridge soap $10.40
• Butterball bath bomb $4.95
• Shimmy Shimmy massage bar $6.75
• Sex Bomb bath bomb (HUGE!) $6.15
• Sweetie Pie shower jelly $10.25

my total was $47.95 but tax brought it up to $50.83. I like how the promotion wasn't spend $50 BEFORE taxes. so that was cool. The Christmas Present I picked out was Stardust.

It included:

• a small Snow Fairy shower gel
• Double Fast Luck emotibomb
• Snow Fairy solid perfume
• Star Melt bath melt
• Fairy Tail sugar scrub
• Candy Cane bubble bar
• Angels Delight soap

The present was worth $50 so I got $100 of products for $50 so very cool. I will do reviews on things as I try them. I even made an online order because the USA site added more Christmas items for the buy 1 get 2 free promotion! Can't wait until it gets here!

Exploring the Lush Craze!!!

Over this last week, I have watched a lot (and I mean, a lot!) of videos about Lush products. I had never heard of this company before but it seems as though everyone is blogging about it and posting videos about it. So I ventured onto the website (http://www.lush.com/ ) and I really liked what I saw. The site is set up very well, it really catches your eye. Then I looked through the many products they offer which includes soaps, shampoo bars, body butters, shower jellies, massage bars and many, many more. Everything looks very fun to use, some of the bath bombs have glitter in them that float out into your bath, some change the color of your bath. So I made a mini list of items I really want to try, I eventually would like to try them all. Here is my list:

Pictures of products go in this order:

• Porridge soap (has actual oats in it for exfoliation)
• Honey, I washed the kids soap (everyone raves about the scent)
• Therapy massage bar (can be used to massage and as a solid lotion)
• Rockstar soap (I've heard it smells like candy plus its pink, my favorite color!)

All items listed can be found at: www.lushusa.com

I've heard that it is best to shop in-store since different scents appeal to different people so I located a store near me! I plan to splurge for my birthday :)
