It's Time to Have Fun with Lush Fun

Hi all,

Holidays are now in gear and I'm finally able to have some good fun! And what better way than to have fun with a new invention from Lush called Fun. I recently tested out this product in this Green scent and I am delighted with this product. The consistency of it is so unique as it is hard yet gooey. How cool?! And the packaging of this product is so bright and bubbly. You get a lot of uses out of this 4-in-1 product and I really enjoy this!

Well what is this product all about? According to Lush:

"A citrus burst of tangy lime and lemon essential oils will wake you up, keep you feeling fresh and focused and help you play for hours."

      

Lush Fun in Green contains lime and lemon essential oils which pack a punch and will definitely wake you up. This really refreshes you!

It is the ultimate body product as you can use it for a bubble bath, your hair, your body and for fun! It has many different uses which I love. In addition the Green scent smells so nice and refreshing, making it especially perfect for summer! When I put it in the bath, the water turned green with some bubbles. It was so relaxing to be in the bath but I felt so revitalised after, thanks to Lush! The citrus scent lingered on my skin and my skin felt hydrated, smooth and soft. It's like clay which you can mould into all different shapes.

         

How do you use it? You need to learn from the experts:

"Well, the first thing you will want to do with your Fun is get it out of its biodegradable wrapper and start having fun making it into models and shapes. There are so many ways to wash with Fun. For body and hair, just pinch off a small bit, hop in the shower or bath and lather from head to toe. Use as a bubble bath or to hand wash your clothes by crumbling a small chunk under the hot running tap. When you've finished having Fun, please store your bar back in its cellophane."

         

     

4 more days to V-Day! Lush Willow Soap

Hi everyone,

So there is four more days to Valentine's Day and I have got the perfect product to prepare you for a great day and night! It is the Lush Willow Soap. The look of this soap is really nice. It looks really elegant and romantic. I love the delicate look of it. Something that stood out to me about this soap is the texture and consistency of it. Willow Soap feels really moisturizing, reminding me much of Lush's massage bars. It is more thick which I really do enjoy! The word that best describes this soap is creamy. It is super creamy! The soap is rose, silician lemon and rosewood. It's oh so romantic! The scent is so romantic. To me, all I smell is musk! It is so reminiscent of Musk Livesavers, but more elegant and mature. The soap lathers really nicely on your skin. Afterwards my skin felt really smooth and soft. Also my skin felt quite moisturised as well. Love this because you can't get that from many soaps. This is perfect to prepare for a great Valentine's Day. The scent lingers on your skin for a while, so you can still smell it afterwards. I love the delicate look and scent of the product! It is so romantic and elegant. I love it. I definitely recommend this for some pre - Valentine's Day pampering or a last-minute gift!
This product retails for $8.50 from Lush or on www.lush.com.au

Solid Perfumes: Lush Breath of God

Hi all,
So I have a Lush product to show and tell! This product is from the Gorilla Perfume range which launched not too long ago. Breath of God Solid Perfume is really cute and portable that is super easy to throw in your bag. The packaging is cohesive with the rest of Lush's products and is quite cute and attractive. The main notes of this fragrance are cedarwood, rose, ylang ylang, vertivert and lemon. To be completely honest, I dislike the smell of the solid perfume at first. It can smell medicinal. But give this perfume a chance! Throughout the day, the scent really develops and smells GREAT. The fragrance combines two perfumes. One has sandalwood and amber inpsired by the Tibetan temples and the other contains lemon, neroli and rose inspired by the air of the mountains. There are melon notes, which I can really smell, which combines to create a great scent. I think that this solid perfume is superb and is even better as it retails for $7.95. What a bargain!
RRP $7.95 from Lush or online at www.lush.com.au

Lush 9 to 5 Cleanser

Hi beauties,
Today I have another fantastic review about a product from Lush. This product is Lush's 9 to 5 Cleanser. This is a product designed for the busy bee and I think it is superb! It is a cleanser that you use without water and wipe off with a cotton pad. I find this so convenient. The packaging is nice and simple and matches with the rest of the Lush skincare line. The dispenser is great and easy to use. Also, the consistency is really thin. This gentle cleanser is made with almond oil, dove orchids and everlasting flower absolute. These ingredients work together really well. I really enjoyed this product. It was so easy to apply and is really quick to use too. Afterwards, my skin felt really clean, healthy, smooth and soft. What is so unique about this product is that it really hydrates the skin. Although my skin felt clean, it also was moisturised. I think that this feature is absolutely great! I really love it as it removes daily dirt and grime without any problem. This product retails for $7.95 for 95g and $15.95 for 40g. You can purchase this product from Lush or online at www.lush.com.au.

Lush's Emotional Brilliance!

Hi all,
I have heard all about the Lush Emotional Brilliance line and I was quite surprised that Lush was making cosmetics. It was awesome! So I had to try it out myself.

The first product out of the three I have is the Lush Liquid Eyeshadow in Intuitive. The base softens really easily into the skin and is made of soothing rose petal infusion, almond and jojoba oils. It also contains Cupuacu butter which helps to set the colour pigment nicely. I really like the sounds of this! The packaging of this product is cohesive throughout the Emotional Brilliance line and is really unique. The bottles are quite cute! The applicator is a sponge-tip and makes it quite easy to use and apply the product. The colour Intuitive is really nice. It is a shimmery lime green and is similar to Buxom's Stay There Shadow in Shih Tzu. The shade has such variety as it can create a bold look and a natural one too. The quality of the product is great. I quite enjoy the consistency and how smooth it glides on. Also, the shadow stays and has quite good lasting power.
RRP $24.95

 

 

Another product is the Lush Liquid Eyeliner in Control. The base contains the same ingredients as the liquid eye shadow - soothing rose petal infusion, almond and jojoba oils and cupuacu butter. This is a benefit as they seem like great ingredients and work together really well. The packaging is the same as the product above which adds a great cohesion to this new line. The applicator is a thin liner brush which makes is super easy to apply the liner and build up the thickness of the line. The shade Control is a great eyeliner colour. It is dark blue. This is great for a dramatic or natural look. Again, the quality is really lovely. It is quite long lasting and glides on so well. I really like it.
RRP $24.95

 

 

The last product from the Emotional Brilliance line is the Lush Liquid Lipstick in Confident.
The formula of this product contains a skin softening base. This base is a blend of organic jojoba oil, candelilla wax and rose wax. These ingredients are super softening and soothing on the skin and carry pigment really well. Again, I love how you can control the amount of subtly or drama you want by building on the colour or sheering it out. The packaging is cohesive with the rest of the line and is really cute. The colour Confident is quite nice. The shade is a dark rose colour. I think it is matte but it may have a slight shimmer to it. I have have said several times throughout this post, the quality of this product is superb. It goes on really well and stays on the lips for a long time. One thing that I really enjoyed is how it didn't dry out the lips. When you blended it out, it acted more as a lip stain. This is a great product.
RRP $24.95

 

 

All the products from the Lush Emotional Brilliance line are great. You should definitely go check them out.

Lush Christmas! The Melting Snowman

Hi all,

So Christmas is practically around the corner. And I'm so excited!
Lush has the most exciting Christmas products ever! One of these is The Melting Snowman. The Melting Snowman is one of their luxury bath melts. And trust me, this is luxurious. The packaging of this products is super cute! It literally looks like a melting snowman. To be honest, I didn't like the smell of the actually product. HOWEVER, when I put it in the bath, it smelt DIVINE. I loved it. The melt contains a blend of oils including vanilla absolute and sweet wild orange. The gives the product its deep marzipan fragrance with notes of rich fruit. It reminds me of Christmas cakes and cookies. Yummo! And it smells exactly like Snowcake soap. If you love that soap, then you have to get your hands on this melt! The formula is made of water-softening bicarbonate of soda, cocoa butter and shea butter. The chocolate was so tempting to eat! The heat gets to the product and melts away. After that, the melt releases those brilliant butter through the water. My skin was so moisturised and still felt hydrated and soft afterwards. I absolutely loved this. Also the scent lingered on my skin afterwards. This was the first bath melt I have tried and it was so superb. Way to go, Lush!

I love Lush: Lush Sparkle Toothy Tabs

Hi beauties,

So I have another Lush review for you guys today and it is on the Lush Sparkle Toothy Tabs. This is a revolutionary product for your teeth. Toothpaste is the most used cosmetic product. We use everyday and we often don't even think about it. Instead, Lush has challenged the normal. Four percent of every toothpaste tube is wasted because we can't squeeze it out and thousands of aluminium tubes are thrown away which end up in landfill. Lush can prevent this with their new invention called the Toothy Tabs. They are solid tabs which get rid of the need for unwanted packaging and come in a handy box made of recyclable materials. Each pack contains 40 tabs. All you have to do is pop it in your mouth, crush it a bit and brush your teeth as normal.
It contains great ingredients which are all natural and vegan. These tabs have a mild base of sodium bicarbonate and cream of tartar. The sodium bicarbonate helps to thoroughly clean and whiten your teeth and the cream of tartar helps to make the solid form. There is also a gentle surfacant that creates the foaming effect. This helps dissolve the bacterial build up on your teeth, which you can get rid of completely by brushing. The formula includes dicalcium phosphate to help polish the teeth, glycerine which acts as a humectant and saccharin to sweeten.

The packaging is so cute. The tabs come in a convenient, little box which you slide open. It also has a fun, little quirk involved which made me smile so much.
Sparkle is a teeth whitening palate cleanser, designed to take away any flavours in your mouth and leave you with sweet, fresh breath and dazzling pearly, white teeth. The fragrance is a blend of lemon, grapefruit, black pepper and sea salt. I really liked this toothpaste as I noticed that my teeth were more white and my breath was fresh and zingy.
RRP $2.20



Lush Christmas Party Popper

Hi beauties,
Christmas is certainly my favourite time of the year and I love spending it with my family and, of course, Lush! I know I have said this before, but I love Lush's Christmas products the most. I think I get so excited and basically buy the whole Christmas range! (Also I'm super excited to buy the Fun product).

I have already gone to Lush already but have also gotten the chance to pop Party Popper into my bath. And it was great! Party Popper is a festive bath ballistic, inspired by celebratory party poppers! The product looks like one too; it is pink on the bottom and blue up the top. When you put the ballistic in the bath, it is great! The products zooms around the bath and crackles. Yes, it contains the crackling candy. I love how Lush includes this little quirk as it adds the effect of the party popper cracking. How fantastic?! Also you find green confetti in the tub which actually is soap paper. This paper is made from fresh honeydew melon and soap flakes. I used them afterwards and it nourished and clarified my skin. I thoroughly enjoyed the soap paper. There were trails of blue and pink in my tub and eventually my whole bath turned pink. I loved it!
The fragrance of the ballistic smelt like I stepped into a Lush store. The scent was really uplifting and is a blend of bergamot and tangerine oils and healing rose oil. The product release a 'dry champagne' perfume and smells quite nice.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed using the Party Popper Bath Ballistic from Lush. It really lifted my mood and the scent lingered on my skin for a while. Also, the bath looked great!
RRP $5.95
