Title : Vanilla Bath Gift Set by LUSH
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : For a gift, a great deal, for yourself, maybe not so much
The first thing that needs to be considered here is that by buying the Butterball ballistic and Floating Island melt separately, you'll save almost $2, BUT less than $2 for wrapping and a nice label (and cute wrapping at that), really isn't unreasonable, especially when compared to the differences in price in other Lush gifts.
Now, if you're getting this for yourself, you might as well go for the goodies on their own and save the money, but if you're getting this as a present, this is a decent deal. :)
That being said, I'm tempted to buy one for myself because the wrapping paper is so cute and I love both Butterball and Floating Island (what's not to love?) so nothing in here would go to waste...yes, it's true, I'm not listening to my own advice here.
Title : ESSIE Nail Polish
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Essie Nail Polish
Believe the hype. It really is THAT good though one of the bottles came slightly open with the result that nail polish was all over the bottle and top as well as the bubble wrap.
Title : In The Nude Bath Melt by LUSH
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Soothing
Adding a bath melt to your evening bath makes it a sensuous and silky experience. The water seems to glide over your skin in a more sensuous way and while the almond oil moisturizes your skin, the lavender and rose essential oils helps you to relax and forget the daily drudgery.
With a bath melt, you enter the land of exotic princesses sinking into mysterious milky perfumed baths. Of course you will want to try Skin Sin lotion to enhance the experience.
The color of the bath melt is not quite as pink as pictured and is more like a "nude" skin tone. You can use this along with other items from LUSH or add in your own bubbles, like a black currant and vanilla bubble bath. A
s you emerge from the tub, you may notice you don't need any body cream at all, but what fun would that be? The Skin Sin lotion is fun to use and also contains almond oil.

Title : Buffy Skin Conditioner by LUSH
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : This is THE best.
I have some dry bumpy bits at the top of my arms that have been resistant to any scrubby product I've ever tried to use, but buffy got my skin so smooth! Amazing, and highly recommended. Soak in the tub/shower/whatever so the hot water softens up your skin, then scrub away. The small bar lasts 2 or 3 uses; the large is twice as big. The small one is more reasonably priced for people who just want to sample the stuff.
This thing has lots of great little scrubby bits in it. Ground rice, ground almonds, AND adzuku beans. Not just one, but three, and they are all super-scrubby. You'll be a little red when you're done, but it's SO worth it once you've cooled off and your skin is as smooth as a baby's bottom.
The only downside is that it makes your tub look like somebody dumped sand into the bottom of it once the thing drains. The bar melts at around 'hot water' temperature, and you're not supposed to use any moisturizer after using this stuff - but you really don't have to! The moisturizing oils in the bar really do work very well. I'll definitely be picking up a couple more of these.
The cocoa butter/lemon/lavendar scent is really amazing as well. Soothing AND refreshing, it can wake you up in the morning or calm you down at night before you go to sleep. Definitely try this thing, though, if you're looking for ultimate exfoliation plus moisturizing!
Title : American Cream Hair Conditioners by LUSH
Rating : 1 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Not impressed
I wasn't impressed by this product at all. After reading the other reviews I expected the scent to be out of this world. It was decent, but certainly nothing to write home about.
It didn't condition my hair very well. I do have very thick, long, curly hair, but I nevertheless expect more from something that bills itself as an extra-strength conditioner.
Once again I have to rant about Lush's prices. $7.95 for a conditioner is fine. $7.95 for a conditioner this size is ludicrous. I don't know how Lush can get away with charging such exorbitant prices for their products, but they consistently do.
I'm giving it 1 star because it was a big disappointment for me.

Title : Jungle Hair Conditioner by LUSH
Rating : 2 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Wasn't for me
I ordered this and waited forever to get it. It just wasn't for me. I have thick, wavy shoulder length hair that tends to get frizzy. Like some of the others - I felt like I hadn't used any conditioner. I thought it was hard to use and also left my hair feeling a little sticky. I went back to my salon usuals.
Title : Aromacreme Deodorant by LUSH
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!
It's hard to find deodorant that DOESN'T have anti-perspirant so this stuff is great. Goes on kind of creamy but absorbs well so it doesn't leave any showtail signs. The scent is soft and not overpowering. You'll love it.
Title : Therapy Massage Bar by LUSH
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Really great!
Therapy is VERY calming and relaxing. The mix of lavender and Citrus is perfect (I was afraid it'd energize me more and keep me awake all the time) together and smells fantastic. Its very moisturizing and makes a great moisturizer and lip balm (I know, i'm strange, but it doesn't taste bad and it makes my lips soooo soft)
Title : American Cream Hair Conditioners by LUSH
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Its good!
The scent of American Cream is a very nice, pleasant scent. I may not have gotten an excellent bottle because mine smelled only slightly of the Vanilla milk shake that everyone raves about. However, the performance of the product was quite good. It didn't leave a heavy presence on my hair like some conditioners do. It left my hair feeling really soft and very manageable. I have extremely long, dry hair so I did have to use quite a bit of it though and that made me a little sad.
I took 1 star off because the price is yeeeow expensive. I bought the smallest bottle, just to try it. I will purchase again but because the price is so high, I doubt it will be an everyday conditioner.
Its a great conditioner though, if you can afford it. So I definately recommend it.
Title : Bathos BUBBLE BAR slice by LUSH
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Nice way to unwind....
I bought this as a treat for myself. I saved it for several days, looking for an opportunity to actually relax in the tub (which doesn't come often). It sat on my bathroom counter in the simple packaging for several days and my whole master bedroom and bath smelled heavenly, so I was looking forward to using it. I finally had a chance to take a nice, relaxing bath after an especially long day. I only used about half and it filled my huge jacuzzi tub with tons of bubbles. The smell is feminine, soft, clean, and not too overpowering. The bubbles lasted for the entire bath (about 30 minutes), and actually were very soft and made me feel clean, though I really only soaked in it to relax. I rated it four stars because it left my skin feeling a bit dry, and it is a bit expensive, so I could not buy it often. For an occasional treat, though, it is great! I wish Lush made this scent in a shower gel or soap!
Title : Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : The perfect tinted moisturizer!
This is the perfect tinted moisturizer and the best one I have ever tried. I use it regularly every summer and when I travel. I tried several other tinted moisturizers before I found this product. I use this tinted moisturizer along with loose powder for a perfect, flawless finish. Most other brands that I have tried have little color and coverage. This product moisturizes as well as provides good coverage. Additionally, it has SPF 20 which blocks harmful UV rays. I recommend this tinted moisturizer for anyone who wants to shorten their cosmetic routine, protect their skin and look great!
