Lush Cosmetics 30 Day Challenge created by LushiesUnite:
- 1. How did you find/get introduced to Lush products? How long ago was that? What was the first product you ever used?
- My sisters have been using LUSH for years. I received a 100ml bottle of snow fairy for Christmas 2 years ago, and that was the first LUSH product I ever used. Shamefully, I didn't even use it for well over a year after I received it because I was turned off by the glitter in it. Now I know that the glitter all sinks to the bottom of the shower gel and doesn't really stick to the skin at all. I had been in a LUSH shop with my mom/sisters probably 5+ years ago, but I thought the prices were ridiculous so I didn't purchase anything.
- 2. Top 3 favorite bath products? (Bath bombs, bubble bars, bath melts)
- I do not take baths. I like to buy bubble bars and use them in my shower puff to wash with. I also have a twilight bath bomb that I keep in my sock/underwear drawer to keep them smelling amazing. My favourites would be: twilight (for the amazing smell), creamy candy bb/candy mountain bb (same thing: amazing smell) and the magic wand! for its prettiness/fun/scent.
- 3. What’s one product that you REALLY want to try but just haven’t gotten around to yet?
- Hmm that's a hard one. I basically try everything. I guess I want to get into the haircare since it is the only area I haven't really bought into yet. I love the idea of their solid shampoo bars.
- 4. Do you use Lush skincare? What are your favorite products for your skin, and why do you love them so much?
YES! I have a ton of LUSH skincare. I've tried basically all of their cleansers and none worked for me. I use their tea tree toner on a daily basis. I use their moisturizers currently (imperialis, enzymion and vanishing cream) but they're not my favourite and I am contemplating switching brands when they're all used up. I also don't like that they do not have SPF in them. I use honey trap lip tint every day on my lips to keep them soft- best lip balm ever in my opinion.
- 5. Aren’t the massage bars AMAZING?! Which is your favorite?
- I am not a huge massage bar fan. I own their love potion bar and their therapy massage bar. Therapy smells gross to me so I double wrapped it in a bag and its just laying around. Love potion isn't my favourite scent but it is relaxing to use as a body moisturizer before bed.
- 6. Do you have a discontinued or Retro product that you miss more than anything?! (Not holiday!)
- The only retro product that I really adore/have owned is Smitten because I love the snowcake scent. I also own Narcotic shower gel, iced wine shower jellie and some I should coco soap which were retro/disconned.
- 7. If you could give your best friend(s) just one Lush product, which would you pick for them?
- I would give them snow fairy shower gel because that is what hooked me! Or maybe the coconut deodorant powder because it is a versatile product that smells amazing!
- 8. Lush blogs do you check frequently? Do other Lush blogger’s opinions on products effect your decision making when choosing what you get for yourself?
- I am on some LUSH private groups on facebook, the LUSH facebook page (NA and UK) and the NA forum. I also check the LUSH tag on tumblr but I am not a tumblr user. I blog about LUSH on my own blog and follow many beauty bloggers who sometimes review LUSH. I definitely place value on other LUSHies opinions of new products.
- 9. Where/how do you store your Lush “stash”?
- EVERY WHERE! I have some in my bathroom (shower gels, cleansers/toners, soap), some in my bed side table (soap), sock drawer (bubble bars/bath bombs), mini fridge (cleansers and solid deodorant stash), vanity table (lip tints, moisturizers, hand/body creams, perfumes) and beauty storage area (deodorants, shower products, body products, lip products etc etc).
- 10. What haircare products do you love? Do you use Lush haircare in your daily routine?
- I don't really use LUSH hair care. I've sampled some but I am turned off by their ridiculously high prices.
- 11. If you’ve had a terrible day, what Lush product do you use for a pick-me-up?
- I love exfoliating products to scrub away the negativity! Rub rub rub, I should coco, sandstone, ocean salt, porridge.
- 12. What issue of the Lush Times has been your favorite so far? Do you keep all of your old issues?
- I don't keep old issues. I recycle them. I am not a pack rat at all, except when it comes to LUSH hoarding ;)
- 13. Do you use hair masks, foot treatment products or face masks regularly? What’s your ultimate at-home Lush spa night?
- I have never used a LUSH hair mask or foot treatment. I use lemony flutter on my feet to soften them. I like the face masks- I've tried cupcake, cosmetic warrior and catastrophe cosmetic (my favourite!)
- 14. Do you use the designated Lush tins to store any of your products? (Massage bars, solid shampoos, body butters, etc.)
- I think the tins suck to be honest. I have one solid shampoo tin that my mom gave me. I keep my jungle (which I use as a shave bar) in there. They are poorly designed as they are very hard to get open, especially if you have wet or recently moisturized hands!!
- 15. What’s your must-have-on-hand-at-all-times product that you might die without? (Okay, dramatic, but not really for Lushies ;D)
- Hmmm probably honey trap. But I love a lot of LUSH products. When it comes to showering, I couldn't enjoy myself without at least one LUSH soap and shower gel on hand.
I will post the next 15 questions in the next post :)
Awesome post! Your stash isn't meagre! It just means you're using your products to make room for more! ;) I never thought of using bubble bars in the shower like the shower jellies. Great idea! I used to take baths, but they are too much effort and a waste of water.
ReplyDeleteyes I try not to hoard LUSH like a lot of other LUSHies since I don't want it to go off. There are expiry dates for a reason! But sometimes I get seriously envious of other peoples huge stashes :(
DeleteTry using a bubble bar in the shower! I love it and the scent lingers amazingly. Also, one bubble bar could last you 10 showers since you only need a bit per shower to get tons of bubbles!
Wow great stash!! Really jealous :) Also, the idea to use bubble bars in the shower is genius!
ReplyDeletethanks! I have nothing compared to many people I've seen! haha. I love using bubble bar in my shower puff, it is amazing!
Deleteyour lush stash looks amazing!! i really need to make a trip to lush again to stock up on a few essentials! i absolutely love using the hair products by lush (:
