Re: Lush
HSuan Wen Hua Hair Treatment is lovely! I got it last week and have used it twice so far. Since cutting all my hair off, I find that washing it every other day helps it look healthier and shinier, less pouuufy, and this makes my hair instantly soft, shiny and I can literally just rinse it out, shampoo, towel dry and go!
For longer hair, I loved The Strokes, but I don't know if it's available any more. Shame if it's not.
I also just started to try Herbalism, which is a more refreshing version of Angels on Bare skin, and perhaps a bit more astringent, though it still leaves your skin super soft and not shiny.
Love Coalface in the summer, and Fresh Farmacy if you're prone to breakouts (though it is a bit drying).

Re: Lush
My Mom has made my Lush problem worse - she bought me a Lush egg for easter. It smells lovely and I get the nice 10% voucher so I shall be fueling my #1 addiction.
I'm planning on getting:
Ultrabland
Ocean Salt
Either Fresh Farmacy/Sweet Japanese Girl (I'm going to see what the assistant thinks is best for my skin)
Almond and Coconut smoothie
Butterball x 3
Honey Bee x 3
Something Wicked
Any recs. for someone with combo skin, that struggles to find something that doesn't strip all moisture from her skin or just add to her oil bucket?
Thanks :]

Re: Lush
I had a trip to Lush on Saturday and I got a Big Blue bath bomb, the Comforter bubble bar, Happy Talk lip balm and Ocean Salt. Yay!
I hardly ever get to go there because the nearest shop is ten miles away from where I live. As is the MAC counter!

Re: Lush
My friend got me hooked on LUSH and now I can't live without it! I love Rehab Shampoo and Coolaulin conditioner for my hair, and Fresh Farmacy and Cupcake face mask for my skin. Buffy the Backside Slayer is a life-saver for winters in Calgary, which tend to be super dry. My favourite are the Bubble Bars - I've never taken bubble baths before where the bubbles actually stayed for the entire time! Comforter is the best - it's like being wrapped in a pink fuzzy blanket!

Re: Lush
I love Sexy Peel, I want to eat it, it smells so good! Buffy the Backside Slayer is dreamy...but it practically evaporates, and is expensive. I love the Each Peach and Soft Coeur Massage Bars. The are definately a treat. ($$$)

Re: Lush
I forgot if I ever posted here before, but I LOVE Lush.
In the last month and a half Ive spent $300 on bubble bars, ballistics and melts alone.
Not to mention the $150 I spent on this year`s discon round. All of us at the Lush forum consider that being very good, though

Re: Lush
I used to have a bath a couple of times a week with Lush bath bombs - candles and everything  . I don't have time for that anymore (shower girl!), but my favourite ones to use in the tub were Dreamtime bathmelt and Tisty Tosty bath bomb (hubby likes it too).
For skincare, it is most definitely Angels on Bare Skin. This stuff is amazing and I really do believe it has given my skin a nice equilibrium. And the chocolate Whip Stick lip balm, omg, I could just eat this stuff! It smells and tastes so good

Re: Lush
I just returned from a LUSH store grand opening (Yay! No more stalking the mailman!) and if I wasn't bordering broke, I would've gone much crazier. LOL. I'd post a picture of my haul, but my camera's on the fritz. Anyways, I bought:
* Herbalism (recommended by the saleslady)
* Tea Tree Water Toner
* Buffy the Backside Slayer
* Rockstar Soap
* American Cream
* Ayesha Bio-Fresh Mask (really, cause it was the only mask they had left, damn these things sell fast!)

Re: Lush
Demon in the Dark is deelightful!
I had the misfortune of having a shopper sniffinf thinks make a face,gag and shove a shower gel under my delicate probiscus. Ohmygod! Pilau! (Hawaiian for stink) Sonic Death Monkey smells like a cup of motor oil with a carton of ciggerettes extinguished in it! Horrid. The rest of the store is yummy.

Re: Lush
I'm a new lushie..but I"m in love. I love "snap the whip" body butter, if only it didn't go so quick. I"m also trying out Herbalism, which I like so far, but I'm not sure I'm getting the right "paste" consitincey. Others I've tried & love
Massage bars: Amazonia, each peach & sleepy head(think thats the name)
Enzymon moisturizer
Seanick solid shampoo
Tea tree water
I have some of the bath bombs too but I have a kitten living in my bathroom, and I don't want to take a fun bath in there if I'm going to have to fish him out every few minutes  I get to go to a real store at the end of the month, it will be fun!!

Re: Lush
I adore Lush! It's the only stuff I use now for cleansing and moisturizing. I own loads of stuff by them and plan on getting more. Also their hair gel that they just brought out is really great and Dream Cream is a staple product for me. I won't be without it. I love their bubble bars and soaps but they've discontinued some of my favorites  . And I also love what they're about as well with the recycling and their animal testing policy too.
My favorite massage bar is deffinately Soft Couer but each Peach And Two's A Pair is another favourite. And I have a lot of love for their Sweet Japanese Girl which I use everyday and is very gentle. I used to use Angels on Bare Skin but I fancied a change. I don't think their Lip Service lip balm is as good as it used to be though. And I love to use their glittery massage bars as well for when I'm going out. Hahah I could keep on about Lush for ages because I love it so much.
Oh and my feller loves Razorantium Shaving Cream and Honey I Washed The Kids Soap and I swear he's been stealing my Sweet Japanese Girl face bar lol

I recommend Imperialis. That's pretty good for combo skin in my experience.

For a toner I suggest Tea Tree Toner. It'll help balance you out. For moisturizer I'd say go for Enzymion which was formulated for oily skin. From personal experience I would suggest Angels on Bare Skin. However you could also get away with using Sweet Japanese Girl which will help to exfoliate and decongest your skin. HTH

For cleansers, I like Herbalism and Coal Face, and Ocean Salt is an ammmazing exfoliator. Fresh Farmacy is really drying, but makes a great spot treatment. Good masks for oily skin are Cosmetic Warrior, Cupcake, Mask of Magnaminty, and a couple others that I can't remember right now LOL. Lush's moisturisers aren't good for acne-prone skin, most of them contain cocoa butter and other oils that are comedogenic aka pore-clogging. I tried Enzymion and it made me break out like crazy.
