When you walk into Lush, you immediately notice the shelves, covered in unique and colorful products that range from body butters to bath bombs. For those unaware, Lush is a cosmetics store that produces vegan products and fights for animals rights, and it is lovely. In fact, I’ve been acquiring Lush products for two years now. Here is the list of the top five products I recommend:

  1. I have oily skin – it is a struggle finding the right face mask. However, after a long period of trial and error, I found a good one called “Cupcake”. This fresh face mask completely absorbs your oil and the delicious chocolate smell is a bonus.

  2. I recently purchased a body lotion in the format of a bar called “Once Upon a time”. It smells like green apples and it is very moisturizing! 

  3. During the holiday season, I acquired a body conditioner called “Christingle”. At first, I was hesitant on the purpose of a body conditioner as it is intended to be applied after normal soap. However, this product has absolutely impressed me. Its peppermint formula leaves a cooling effect on my body after showering and it moisturizes my body amazingly.

  4. If you are not into the fresh face masks that expire within three weeks of purchase, I recommend the normal fresh masks that last for around three months. I have tried the mask of magnaminty, and it isn’t bad, but its Cup O’Coffee that really stole my heart. I usually apply it right as I wake up and it really lightens up my morning! Its strong coffee smell is enough to wake you up all while leaving your skin feeling nice and soft.

  5. Last but not least – the Wiccy Magic Muscles massage bars! It is a must. It contains peppermint and cinnamon oils for times when your muscles ache and it leaves a really enjoyable warming sensation.

 

There are, of course, so many other excellent Lush products, which I am excited to review in future articles! Lush is a value-based brand that strongly believes in making a change in society and they find innovative ways to create naked products. If you have any recommendation of Lush products you have enjoyed, please, comment below! I might just have to try them for myself.
