Hi lovelies!
If you follow me on twitter, you would have already seen that I had recently ordered some stuff from
LUSH. I got the parcel today and I have to say the shipping was very quick. I received my 'your order has been shipped' email late yesterday afternoon and it arrived this morning.
I have never ordered from them online before as I've always had a store close by, but now the trek into Leeds City Center every other week is a bit much. I was very impressed with the packaging that my products came in. With a little message from LUSH, it was more than just your regular plain brown box.
I ordered a butterball bath bomb and 100ml of the Snow Fairy shower gel because I totally wanted to see what all the hype was about this product! I have seen so many reviews on it, I thought it's got to be good!
I was really happy to find on my order review, information about the Ecoflo packaging they use. This just backs up their claims to be a very organic and ethical company.
Me being me, I had to test the packaging, and just as it said, it does dissolve in water.
On the inside of the box were also ways to recycle all of the other packaging the company uses, from recycling the box itself, to collecting the black pots, returning 5 to a LUSH store and receiving a free fresh facemask.
Also inside was the LUSH times newspaper, I had a quick flick through this morning but I really want to sit down and have a proper read.
Butterball Bath Bomb I have tried a good few LUSH bath bombs in my time, but I have never tried this one and I really wish I would have sooner! The smell is just amazing and even 5 hours after my bath, I can still smell the gorgeous vanilla and cocoa butter scent on my skin. When you drop it into your bath it fizzes away, leaving not only its beautiful smell but also the oil from the cocoa butter sits on top of the water. In my past experience, I have always found bath bombs to dry out your skin, but this does the complete opposite. When you're relaxing in your bath you can feel the oil on your skin, leaving you really moisturized when you get out. In no means does it feel greasy, just very smooth and soft.
I can definitely say that I will be buying this product again, probably as soon as next week in fact! I think I may even have to stock up on these babies.
Snow Fairy Shower Gel
As I said earlier in this post, I bought this product out of curiosity and I really haven't been disappointed! I can now safely agree with any other review I have read. The sweet smell of candyfloss and pears drops is quite a strong one, so maybe it isn't good for daily use, but it's great for when you want a sweet, girly scent throughout the day. I adore the colour of the shower gel and the addition of blue glitter is enough to make any sparkle loving person weak at the knees.
I haven't used this product yet, but as it's LUSH, I can't say that I am going to be unhappy with it at all. If you can get your hands on a bottle of this beauty, buy it there and then. You'll love it!
