I heart you Lush!


Another thing I love about lush is there great customer service.
I sent a email to lush after I had the allergic reaction to a mask, asking for some advise..
they offered to send me some items to say sorry (even tho I wasn't complaining to them)
which I thought was lovely of them.
I also attached a picture of me and my red face, (they must have felt sorry for me! LOL)
I was only expecting a couple of items but ended up with all this!
I twitted the picture above the morning I received the parcel as I was so happy.
They even sent me 'blonde' which I mentioned I wanted to try.
So this is what I got:
The Olive Branch (Shower gel)
Eau- Roma Water (toner)
Aqua Marina (Cleanser)
Creamy Candy Bath (Bubble bar)
Ultra Bland (Cleanser)
The Blonde (Solid Shampoo)

The olive branch shower gel- I've purchased before, its truly amazing! but went out of date quite quickly, luckily this one lasts till next year :]
Creamy Candy bubble bar is one of my favorites, so I'm so pleased I got a new one!

The Blonde

I'm wanting my hair lighter, so when my friend said there was a lush shampoo out that claims to bring out your natural blonde/ mousey brown hair, i was excited!
My natural hair colour is a mousey brown on the verge of blonde, but i havent seen it for years! Ive been dying my hair black,dark brown since I was 16.
I never let my hair grow out as I get fed up of waiting,
Hopefully this will speed up the process! Il keep you all updated tho.
Ive used it twice, It smells gorgeous, and you use it just as you would a soap,
I rub it in my hands then apply to my hair, it lathers up really well!
Ive recently put blonde high lights in my hair, so far this shampoo has made them lighter.
Although I do want to go blonde, I'm also thinking of going red, a cherry red.
See what I mean when i say i get fed up and turn to hair dye? Its a habbit.
Although this time I'm wanting to try the Lush hennas which are great for your hair and have more affect then a box hair dye
You can find out more about them here.



Aqua Marina

A skin softening seaweed cleansing wash.
It smells horrible IMO, but its meant to be really good for your skin,
I haven't tried this yet but if anyone wants a review, you know what to do!

Ultra Bland
Smell's of honey :]
because basically that's what it is made up of..
On my last lush visit the lady tried abit on my arm, and I did want to purchase it.
I was on a budget so didn't, I'm so happy they popped this in with my goodies.
The lady was telling me how she uses this as a night cleanser to take off her make up.
She said it removes everything and doesn't take a lot of effort..
I did the same, and she was right, it even removed my waterproof liquid eyeliner!
This is what it looks like...



Thanks for reading Guys + dolls, expect a Lush favorites post coming up soon!

Bless Lush!
I've just used their caca rouge henna hairdye to dye my hair red. It went pretty gingery, but if you keep using it over a period of about 3 days I think it's meant to go a really nice red colour. It's made my hair beautifully soft!
