Actually this is my blokes LUSH beauty haul. I created a LUSH wish list with the intention of him surprising me with some of the items for Christmas. Armed with my wish list he ventured forth into the ‘overwhelmingly scented’ shop and was apparently asked by a canny and very helpful assistant “Is that someone’s wish list you need help with?” “Yes it is! Yes please, thank you!” was his gracious reply. He only went and bought me everything on my list!

LUSH

Clockwise from left to Right: Retread Hair Conditioner (for deep conditioning of frazzled weary hair), Curly Wurly (conditioning shampoo for wavy or curly girlies), fluff ease (leave on hair treatment), Breath of God Gorilla Perfume (for on-the-go application), Moisturising Lotion Bar (for use on wet skin), Lust (Gorilla Perfume *swoon*), Dirty Styling Cream (to precisely style unruly hair), Eyes Right (mascara), Deodorant bar (well duh), Feeling Secure (eyeliner) Confident (lip stain), there is also a spot treatment & shaving cream (for my legs).

I’m chuffed to bits! I requested the smaller sizes of all of the products, as I’m trying them for the first time and also, they have a use by date on them as they are freshly made in the shop. I’ll be reviewing them all soon to, so keep an eye out…

    Lucky you! Would love my other half to do this! More prompting needed I think…

      It’s a good idea, as there is so much to choose from it makes it a lot easier.

    Wow, what a lovely bunch of treats! I’ve not tried many Lush items so you’ll have to recommend me some starters 🙂

      All of these things are pretty much the basics in my opinion 😄

      I’d say to get the everyday essentials to see if you like the brand first, then build on that :0)

      OK, I’ll do a full hair care post using everything, when I’m back home. My blokes bath and mirrorless bathroom just isn’t working for me 😄

    Omg I’m so jelly! Lucky you! I so want to try one of their bath bombs and lip scrub so bad – so might pick it up next week once I venture into the shop finally 🙂 x

    An impressive haul – I love Lush products and they seem to have become more ‘grown up’.

    I love Lush… for me this is one of these shops where I could really spend a fortune… always something I didn’t try yet

    Oh wow – well done that man! I adore LUSH, the products, the ethics, the whole kit and caboodle. They gave me a huge load of samples last time I went in, and I loved each and every product. I only went in for a lip scrub, but think have found new fave shop. Can’t wait to see the reviews, as I am a curly girly to, and love leave in conditioner. Can’t wait to read the reviews – would love to know what their makeup collection is like. I hear they have a sale on – so may well be spending some of my Christmas pennies (depending on just how packed the high street is).
    Love Vicky

      Their ethics is what made me pay attention to them years ago. Well, here’s a heads-up: The lip stain is highly pigmented, the eyeliner is hardwearing and the mascara is flexible & conditioning.
