Paola Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 was the cry from my bathroom by DD1 Ewwwwww was my first thought. Something brought in by one of the cats? No, she was pointing at my Lush solid shampoo that was drying on the side She then went onto point out the twigs etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I once let the boys use one of my Lush bath fizzers in their bath - they leapt out when the bath filled with bits of floating flowers Couldn't get them back in it again - wusses!

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Errm, you've lost me . Twigs in shampoo ? Explain . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlo Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I don't go into Lush very often but they do a sort of solid "natural" shampoo thing that is so natural that it still has petals and twigs and stuff in it. I guess that's what is being referred to but I could be wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 BIG Lush fan here too I love all the leafy bits. Has anyone tried their new bubble ball called 'Witches ball'? Its purple,sprinkled with parsley & has all sorts of goodies in it like Juniper berries,cranberries,star anisse & so forth - its gorgeous!

Lesley Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I use the solid shampoo as well - it's great after swimming, gets rid of the chlorine smell. Mine is the yellow one....can't remember its name......full of petals and bits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clootie Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I really want to like Lush but as soon as I get within 10 feet of the shop, I can feel a splitting headache coming on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clootie Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 They do mail order That's great but it's the perfumes they use in their products that start them off. Not great in a shampoo though eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not great in a shampoo though eh? I'm the same, can't imagine such a heady perfume is natural so I looked up their site. The fact that they use only ingredients that are not tested on animals is to be applauded. They do use "safe synthetics" whatever that means. I wish I could use their bath stuff it looks good enough to eat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessa the Duchess Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I really want to like Lush but as soon as I get within 10 feet of the shop, I can feel a splitting headache coming on. Me too, I have to give Lush shops a very wide berth, the smell actually makes me feel sick A well meaning friend gave me a Lush hamper one Christmas I had to put it in the garden shed, couldn't stand the smell in the house Shame really their stuff 'looks' really nice.

Mutrix Farmers Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I love the thought of the Lush products, but the smell is a bit strong. I tried the solid shampoo once but it didn't like my hair. Which was a shame as it had silvery sparkles in and smelt lovely! Son used to call the Body Shop the Smelly Shop until I took him into Lush!!

Chook n Boo Mum Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Have just booked DD's 9th birthday party at the Lush shop in Chichester. Sounds very reasonable & the staff all sound really keen. She is very excited!! Hope I can stand the hour & half for the party and the resultant aroma in the house from her "party bag"!!

Chook n Boo Mum Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I don't know if it's a company-wide plan, or just Chichester. The staff have a group of up to 20 children or partygoers, who are shown around the shop & told how the products are made, given a demo of some of the products. The children are given a small partybag at the end (I think I'm right in saying! ) and the birthday girl is given a huge gift box. They are also providing a cake & some nibbles, although I'll check all these finer details when I go in later to pay the deposit. They do it after the shop has closed & are happy for a private shopping session to occur during the party too! I suspect that a number of the mums will miraculously want to stop for the party - most unusual as most dump & run, and have done since the children were tiny - so I'll have to sort some grown-up nibbles, but that will be no problem. The lady I spoke to said they could arrange that too! One advantage of the party not starting until 7pm on her day is that I won't have to entertain the whole class to tea beforehand, unless I want to of course And the best bit - for all the above they are charging £110! Bargain! Will report back after the party next weekend..... Sha x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
