LUSH Fresh Handmade Cosmetics

LOVELOVELOVE

I love Lush products, Not only do they smell AMAZING but they actually cleanse and work. They are extremely moisturizing and never drying. I would recommend this product to anyone who likes to be pampered and needs a destresser. view more

Caca Noir Henna

I?ve been wanting to color my hair black for so long now (and get rid of grays), but I was really hesitant to use chemical dye. After looking through tons of reviews, I figured I would give Lush?s henna a shot. The sales associate at Lush told me to use the whole block for my hair, since it is fairly long, but I chose to use half of it (3 blocks) not wanting to waste the whole thing in one go. I grated it with a cheese grater in a large bowl and added some freshly brewed coffee. I stirred it together until it was the consistency of batter. Applying it was a huge mess?chunks of henna were flying everywhere! And the smell is pretty terrible. After applying it, I wrapped my hair in saran wrap and then again in a towel and chose to leave it on overnight. Rinsing it out wasn?t too bad. Its a very odd feeling though because its so gritty. I was really surprised when I saw the color! I wasn?t expecting to even notice a change since my hair is so dark, but I saw right away that it was a shade darker?a shiny black! Most of the grays I had are gone, and the few that I could see were darkened and blended with my hair nicely. My hair is also extremely soft and shiny, although a bit greasy because of the moisturizing ingridients. All in all, I really love this and think it is a great alternative to chemical dyes...I will definitely be using it again! view more

Products that are worth it!

You can smell Lush coming from a mile away. I know that when I step into the store that I'm going to find something that I want. I love the face masks. They come in different formulas depending on what skin issue you are facing. All of the ones that I have tried smell so good and I always see good results from using the face masks. view more

Therapy Bars last forever

Have you any idea how long Therapy Massage Bars hold up? My first time intentionally walking into a Lush store was to buy myself a replacement for a shampoo bar that my friend had given me as a gift. Sadly, the kind I wanted was discontinued, but the ladies in the store introduced me to one of my favourite lush creations -- massage bars. Of all the ones I smelled, I took five of them home (business time, strawberry fields forever, therapy, wiccy magic, and a Christmas edition gingerbread boy one too). They're great! I keep them near my bedside table to moisturize my hands before I go to bed, I keep one in a tin in my backpack to moisturize after washing my hands, I slip them anywhere I can. It's so much more convenient than a bottle of lotion, and it has a lasting and soothing scent that many hand creams don't have. The therapy bar in particular has lasted me a long time. I've had it for more than 3 years and it smells great. Sometimes I just open the tin to smell it. The others melt faster from the heat of your hands than the therapy massage bar, and the others have stronger scents. You should go into a lush store and smell the therapy bar. It's definitely a keeper and a favourite to stock up on, plus it's organic! view more

Ocean Salt and Grease Lightning are fab!

I looooove LUSH Fresh Handmade Cosmetics! My very favorite product is the Ocean Salt scrub. It's got salt and vodka in it, what's not to love?!?! All joking aside, I absolutely love how it feels when I am using it, and after. It worked wonders during my pregnancy when I used it every other day, and still does now using it a few times a week. It's got a wonderful scent and leaves my skin feeling oh so clean! I also recommend Grease Lightning, tea tree spot cleanser. It deals well with my combination skin without drying my skin out or leaving that tight feeling on my face. I usually use it all over my face on the days I don't use the Ocean Salt scrub. Overall I am HIGHLY satisfied with the LUSH brand. Some items are a bit pricey, but in my honest opinion, totally worth the price!! view more

A bit much for lush

To start off, I have only used a few Lush products, however the ones I have used, I absolutely love. I love the massage bars and the facial scrub. So why the 3 stars? I find that I am overwhelmed by all the different scents when I go into the store, that it is hard to smell the scent of the product you are holding in your hand. I also find that it is a bit high in price, however I do love that you are able to bring the plastic containers back in and redeem them for free product. That is a fantastic idea for regular customers. I am eager to try more products from Lush and hopefully give them a higher rating. view more

I love it, but a little pricey for a col...

The vibe as you walk in the door is immediately effective. A store clerk will approach you right away asking if you have visited before, if the answer is no, the very knowledgeable staff will walk you through the variety of products, where the products are made, how to read the labels, and if you need assistance in picking out a gift, or buying something for yourself they are there every step of the way. The products are good, and many of them are giftwrapped adorably, which makes a great gift for a female or male. I love Lush, but unfortunately I can't take too many visits because its not a suitable budget for a college student. view more

Unique, handmade products, so/so scents

Lush is, in a word, fabulous. With a wide variety of handmade, fresh cosmetics and bath products, there's something for pretty much everyone here. It's a bit pricey, naturally, but if you like a little something extra in your bathing experience, it's worth it. There are quite a few different fragrances available at Lush, and in my experience, they're sort of hit or miss. Sometimes, you find something amazing, and sometimes, everything smells like Patchouli and star anise. I'm especially fond of their shower jellies. It's exactly what it sounds like... a thick jelly that you can use in your hair and on your body. It does just fine in my hair, but I prefer to use it on my body with a bath poof. It leaves my skin soft and lightly scented, and more importantly, it's just plain fun! view more

Heaven for serious bathers!

Lush, how do I love thee, let me count the ways... My obsession started with a thank you gift of Lily Savon. I am now an addict. My favorite bath bombs are Rocket Girl, Dragons Egg, and Twilight. But they are all good. Solid soaps dont last very long, but they smell really yummy and make your skin feel good. I do avoid all products with cocoa butter in them, becasue they leave a serious and slippery mess in your tub! Watch for the Christmas Sale... Often things go 2 for 1, including gift boxes. I can survive well into spring on my haul from the Christmas sale! view more

Hand made and fresh!!

I love shopping at Lush, the idea behing freshly handmade products is just great considering everything is usually made super fast and poor quality.. I like the scents of a lot of their products but surprisingly i'm not a fan of their bath stuff. Most stuff smells too strong. I love their shampoos in bar! they're awesome i just wish they had the matching conditionner. I also their body soap and cream. On the other hand some stuff is pretty pricey and doesnt last long. I got a foot scrub for like 5$ and it last maybe 2 or 3 times. That's an expensive scrub. I also tried their new toothpaste. It looks like pills. The reason i bought them is that's it Fluoride free...the taste though is not good at all. Overall though i have a highly positive view of this company view more

I am a total Lushie!

I was first exposed to Lush about three years ago- it started with Buffy and has slowly taken over my skincare, hair care, pampering, lotions, etc- even my fiance's regiment is including more and more Lush. It may be a bit pricey but it is so totally worth it to me. I have never had better skin, or hair or smelled better. view more

Great products

I am really on a tight budget now in terms of what I can buy for myself. These are really high quality products that send you into a total sensory zone. Highly recommended for someone if you have never tried them. view more

Fun bath treats!

LUSH is a great all-natural and minimal packaging brand. I love what they stand for and their products are worth it if you love fun scents and inivative product concepts. They are on the expensive side, but the quality really is there! view more

Love the Lush!

I'm a bath product connoisseur and Lush is high on my list of favorites. I've visited the factory and I have to say that I was impressed with the love and care the employees put into making these products. I was also impressed with how many of the ingredients are natural. They do use some synthetic ingredients, but they seem to try to keep it to a minimum and use the natural ones whenever possible. I'm a huge fan of all things citrus and I think Lush does citrus scents like no other. They are a must try for anyone who enjoys pampering themselves! view more

So many great scents!

I love LUSH! Although it is undoubtedly a bit pricey, I adore their products. I especially like the Honey I Washed the Kids soap and Angel's Delight soap. Snow Fairy is a fun scent, but can be a bit overpowering. Their shower jellies are a lot of fun! view more

Ring of Roses soap

had actually purchased this soap several years ago (I believe it was part of my first trip to Lush ever!). They used to categorize this under ?buttercreams? but now it seems to be under just ?soap?. But its not at all like what I remembered. The sample I received of it was very bright pink as opposed to the original color of baby pink, and it does not lather very well?its very difficult to get any lather at all. Worst of all, though, is that the rose smell is barely noticeable?even when putting my nose right up to it. I?m a big rose fan, so not being able to actually smell the rose was pretty upsetting. It seems like they definitely changed their formula from what it was originally view more

Loving Lush

I have always been a huge fan of Lush Cosmetics. The fragrances are clean and real. It never seems synthetic. The new gorilla perfumes are AMAZING!!!! and their body creams and bath bombs are great. Worth a try... :) view more

Great Bath Products & Customer Service

Their products are made with healthy, natural ingredients. I've tried several soaps but my favorite is their most popular, Honey I Washed The Kids. It's gentle enough on skin that it doesn't dry it out and works well on my kids' eczema prone skin. It smells great, too. They have a wide selection of bath bombs that are a fun way to enjoy a relaxing soak in the tub. Their products are pricey but are worth it. I feel like I'm treating myself to a spa experience every time I use them in the bath or shower. I'm impressed with their online customer service. The few times that I had to contact them re: orders was resolved quickly and in my favor. The representatives always seem so friendly! view more

H'Suan Wen Hua (hair treament mask)

I've recently started using this hair mask again. I hadn't purchased it in awhile because of the price, but I've found that my hair needed a little extra TLC because it was feeling very dry and damaged. You use this mask by applying it to dry hair and then shampooing it out. The amount you use depends on the length and thickness of your hair. My hair is rather thin but very long...even so I've noticed that I don't need as much as the directions require (definitely not half the pot!). I'm only halfway through the pot right now and I've use it 3 times. The smell, to me, is exactly like cinnamon. Its one of those smells that you will either love or hate. Many seem to think it smells like salad dressing, but I don't get that at all. The smell will also stay on your hair for a couple days afterward. My hair feels like silk after I use this, so even if you don't like the smell, give the product a chance! This is not something I would buy regularly (due to the price) but anytime I feel like my hair needs some extra help and pampering, I will be picking this up. :) view more

Loving LUSH!

I adore LUSH bath products. I purchased both their shower smoothies and massage bars and they are so moisturizing. I love the fact that I can bring the packaging in to be refilled rather than waste resources. The scents and formulas are lovely. The staff is always helpful. view more

lush

I LOVE THIS STORE! this is my favorite store for skincare, haircare, and bath and shower needs! i love it all! from it's natural and organic ingredients to it's lovely unique smells! especially the sympathy for the skin body lotion! so divine and softening for the skin! smells like banana pudding! view more

Luv the lush

Anyone that has had the pleasure of trying lush surely loves it. I will say that going to a store is the most wonderful experience. They let you try stuff and they demonstrate products. You can smell everything. It is definately worth the trip, if you have a store reasonably close to you view more

Bubblegum Lip Scrub

This lip scrub is a nice treat when my lips get really chapped. It works well to remove the flaky skin from my lips and leaves them nice and smooth. I'm not too big on bubblegum flavors in general, but I got this one because I loved the pink color! Overall, this is a very basic product that you could probably re-create with just olive oil and sugar (so most likely overpriced even by Lush standards), but the packaging and flavoring added makes this much more fun to use. view more

Lush

I love all the products I have tried so far from lush! Their soaps are incredible I have tried godmother and porridge they work great on my sensative skin and smell great! I also love their face bars such as coal i have an oily T zone and sensative skin and this product works wonders! view more
