Reviews: Lush Products

Lush is a company that makes handmade, organic cosmetics. I first discovered it when my family was in Illinois at the Mall of America and the Lush store was right next to the Lego store my littlest brother had been obsessing over. Needless to say I chose to forgo the Lego store and instead check out Lush. So glad I did!
Lush was amazing, the best smelling soaps I've ever encountered and everything was made from fresh, organic ingredients and wasn't tested on animals. All the products even have a sticker that tells you the first name of the person who made the product, when they made it, and when it expires. Yes, it expires, but that's because in lieu of all the chemicals other companies might use, Lush uses fresh products that of course eventually expire.
Most of the products I have last a bit longer than a year, and this isn't a ploy to get their customers to continually buy more once their products expire, Lush does this to inform their customers how to get the most out of their Vegan products.
Now I will talk about two of my favorites from Lush (I've only been there twice so I don't have a ton of experience).  Lush's Bubblegum Lip Scrub is ten dollars for under an ounce of product but trust me, it lasts a loooooong time. What you do is wet your lips, put the scrub on, rub your lips together, and then wipe off the extra scrub. Using this scrub always makes my lips very smooth and it tastes amazing!  You don't have to be worried about poisoning yourself with only SIX ingredients! I love this scrub it lasts thirteen months and I will for sure be renewing my purchase in June!
My other product is Marilyn Hair Treatment this is about twenty three dollars for eight ounces. This hair treatment is meant for people with natural or dyed blonde hair, you use it by covering dry hair in a thick coating of the liquid, and leaving it in for at least twenty minutes, then shampooing and conditioning as normal. I only have two complaints, one, I have extremely thick blond hair so it takes a lot of this treatment to cover all my hair, and two, it smells WEIRD.  I don't know what it is but I don't like keeping it for more than the twenty minutes because the smell gets to me! When I do use it, after showering my hair is super smooth and shiny, and (luckily) doesn't smell like the treatment!
So there it is, the two products I use most frequently from my favorite brands of cosmetics, they are more expensive then other cosmetics, but that's because they take care of what goes into their products and it's all organic. I wish more people would support these kinds of brands so hopefu
lly after reading this, you are influenced to check it out, (and you'll be glad you did!).
