My order came today. The Pied De Piper Foot cream smelles just like a Chai Tea, so I'm loving that, and the Sexy Peel smells great too. The slivers of samples were Sea Vegtable and Honey I washed the Kids Soap, which is cool because I don't have a bath and I was worried it would be bath stuff.

So I bought $110 worth of Avowash last night - half the slab. That's totally normal behavior, right? Completely normal. I'm thinking of doing that too. Found out today that there's a new hand and body cream on its way next month too. Don't know anything about it, and you won't find it in the "Coming Soon" products on the site.

I got my first Lush order in the mail a few weeks ago, and I'm loving most of it. I can't decide which I like more - Buffy (smoothes skin and really moisturizes) , or You Snap the Whip(smoothes skin and smells incredible). Sonic Death Monkey and Lemony Flutter both smell great too, and I'm definitely getting a bigger Cynthia Sylvia Stout next time. No more frizz!
Unfortunately, the products that I needed the most (skin care) are the only ones that do nothing for me. A friend of mine has the same skin I have (blackheads on my oily nose and forehead, lots of whiteheads and deep rooted cisitic breakouts on the rest of my face), but the Herbalism, Angels on Bare Skin, and Coalface she gave me didn't help, even though they work for her. I ordered Fresh Farmacy and Sweet Japanese Girl but so far no luck. I think the only thing left for combination skin is Ultrabland. I guess I'll have to get more of the fun "pampering" products with my next order so I won't be too disapointed if that doesn't work!

zambambee - Sorry the skin care hasn't been working for you. How long did you use it? Sometimes, the skin needs a "break in" period to get accustomed to a new routine, especially if the issues are as deep-rooted as yours sound like. Did you try any of the "Tea Tree Water" toner? If your friend has any of that, ask her for some. Don't try to dry your face out; you want to aim for normalization.

The Angels On Bare Skin came in one of those trial kits and lasted about 6 days. I tried the FF, Coalface, and Herbalism for about 3-4 weeks each. Actually, I think the Herbalism might have made my face even worse. I've been trying SJG for two weeks and love the feel of it, but don't notice a differance. Do Lush products make you brake out more before they start to work? That might explain it.
I do have the TTT, and love the feel of that, too, but I don't think it's doing much. Do you think there's anything else I should be doing? I'm going to place another order in a few weeks - I can't wait to try Floating Island and Volcano Foot Mask. Thanks for your help! You guys should be getting overtime for this.....

I was wandering around the neighborhood, and there's a Lush about a three minute walk away from my dorm. I only bought travel sized toiletries with me to save luggage space, so I need new stuff. Obviously, it's time for my first Lush trip. However, I'm quite poor. What one single product would you recommend? I have a bit of a problem with acne, as well as the little red bumps on my arms (I forget what they're called). I don't like to spend a lot of time grooming and such--I more or less like to shower and go. What should I buy?

For acne, I have been using Coalface for going on a month now. I like it but I don't LOVE it. I'm not totally clear, by any means, so I am going to try other LUSH products soon (Fresh Farmacy and Herbalism, specifically). If I was only going to buy one thing, I think I'd go with a shower gel because they can be used as shampoo, too. Also, from what I hear, one bottle lasts quite awhile. I have Happy Hippy and I like it. It's citrus-y and sweet. I haven't tried it as a shampoo, though.

I'm not a LUSH virgin anymore. I went to the store in Atlanta today and bought some conditioner. They also had bath bombs on special, buy 2 get 1 free, and I couldn't resist. They all looked and smelled so pretty (and apparently they are supposed to make me horny). ;D
