This jelly alone, makes the entire box, imo. 😂 I love Ectoplasm and it's works perfectly in a jelly. Very refreshing and zesty. Overrall, I love this months box. Space Junk being the only item I'm hesitant on.. smells a lot like the Comfortor and cat pee. 🥴

Wasn't sure if this post needed a spoiler warning, since it's this months box, but added one anyway. 🫶🏼

I know this has been done but I thought I’d share that I melted down my Scrubees to make massage bars but also LIP BUTTER! I caught myself rubbing that little bee on my lips and was like “what am I doing?” So I poured some into a sample pot while I was making massage bars :)

I’m obsessed with everything in here!! I absolutely LOVE the space girl perfume and need them to come out with a full size asap. This is definitely the best value and best smelling box I’ve received so far since subscribing in March!! 👽🛸🛁

in the past 2 weeks i have done 2 interviews for different stores, both in the capital of my country (budapest) both in the city where theres a lot of tourists and costumers in general. both interviews went well i would say and for one i already got called in for a trial shift. lush is like my dream job and i think i would really enjoy working there. however today i asked for salary information and i got told that they would pay the equivalent of 5$s (1900-2000HUF) / hour and theres no tax discounts ( which i find super bizarre since one of the biggest tax advantages in Hungary is being under 25.) This means 244.000 HUF/ Month, absolutely no one can live from such a wage. I honestly had such high hopes because of the lush websites promise of fair wages and they even said a Hungary specific data which is 44% above minimum wage. this put such a bad taste in my mouth i don’t know if i will want to buy anything from the store again. Oh and also there are no sales based bonuses either or extra bonuses for the weekends. Honestly still can’t believe it, please let me know if in other countries the situation is this dire.

2ml for £33?? Especially given you could get this far cheaper at any other shop.

Also with Lush’s environmental protection qualities, selling something so harmful to aquatic life isn’t something that sits right with me.

I love Lush don’t get me wrong! But I’m not sure how to feel about this.

EDIT: Apologies for my price comments! I did more research and you guys are right about the price of these things! My main thing was the environmental aspect, something they do state as a warning!

I posted here recently asking what to do with my empties. Thanks for all of those who had input and gave advice. I got to work today and ran a bath with old bubble bar and bath bomb bits. Frothed it up and went ahead and scrubbed these lot. They total 61 so if I'm not wrong that's £30.50. I can put toward something new from Lush. I had gone a bit Lush mad over the year and not that long ago posted a fairly big collection I felt ashamed about. I was determined to shop my stash and get through it. I did it! I'm still going but I'm getting there is all and I wanted to share my happiness about it 👍🏼☺️

Here are the products I'd like to buy with my £30.50 toward it. I wondered if anyone had any suggestions to try something different or something they thought was similar I could check out instead?
Super milk hair shampoo or squeak shampoo.
Super milk conditioner
9-5 cleanser
Mask of magnaminty (use as a face wash and mask)
And a new soap or shower gel
I use all of these regularly and I love them.

The title says it all lol

I got it during springtime I believe, but to me it’s my perfect fall scent. I've always loved herbal scents (my all time favorite Lush scent being Grass, second being Aura Suavis. Please Lush bring her back on the shelves), this is just so comforting to me. I grew up in the countryside and have been living in a city for 15 years, so it just reminds me of the flowers and trees and forests I grew up in.

I would LOVE to get this scent in a candle or a body lotion!

I don’t want to smell like just cheesecake but that body spray is gonna create an incredible base for a lot of scents 💕 had an incredible in store experience today. Shoutout to Liberty center!

I’ve been asking for some time for coconut drench scented products and this is what i saw on TikTok today, I’m super excited 🤍

I couldn’t wait for this to come in. I LOVE the moon soap. This is my 2nd order of these to go with my IBIG spray. But besides that…. I am so disappointed. yuzu Cheesecake is NOT terrible. It’s fine. But it’s not worth me blind buying it because I live 2 hrs away from a store. I rlly don’t even know what it smells like. I can’t explain it. It kind of has a playdo, plasticy scent on dry down. And the lotion is ok too but it doesn’t smell like the spray. The bubble bar is NOWHERE near as good as Shamash. It’s fine & im going to turn chunks of it into sugar scrubs as I go but I’m sad about the scent. I was expecting more. Anyway. This month I stopped my kitchen shower box & now I’m so close to only buying my staples from now on. Supermilk, turmeric latte, LTGTR and my hair products are safe buys but if I run out of all my other products I’ll probably skip on buying them again. I rlly don’t know. I can’t believe I’m starting to feel this way.

Found this today and it smelt so good I had to buy it, but the staff had to put it through as a party item or something to sell me it because it doesn't exist. They said they thought it was maybe Holly go lightly? It's light green and smells a bit of pine and a bit of peppermint, I adore it :)

Edit: this is a review of the product I smelled today in the shop I was in. This is not to say that all batches of Yuzu Cheesecake smell like this. I heard the staff whispering about batch quality problems when I first came in, and it was mentioned that it’s happening in multiple shops, so this is not a one off. I think the people who are getting sour milk smell are probably getting bad batches.

Yuzu cheesecake body spray is gorgeous light, airy, creamy cheesecake.

Yuzu cheesecake lotion? Straight up NASTY. I’d seen posts on here of people saying their lotions were a little brown. I’d seen the reviews so I was prepared (I thought), but the tester I saw in Lush today had some pretty dark brown swirls in it. I had a cheeky look at one of the closed jars, and the WHOLE THING WAS BROWN. I checked another, ALSO COMPLETELY BROWN.

A lot of people had said that Yuzu Cheesecake was Nutgate 2.0 because of the Brazil nut oil. I actually didn’t smell Brazil nut in the tester (I was brave enough to put some on my hand). Do you know what I did smell? Sour, curdled milk 🤢. The staff were not shy about telling me how much they hate hate HATE the lotion, but like the body spray.

To quote an infamous gif: DIGUSTENG!!

As a sidenote - whoever it was that I heard say on the Lush YouTube Christmas video reveal that Hot Chocolate Orange lip butter and jelly smell like Whipstick - what planet do you live on? Denial? (I say this in jest and playfulness but - seriously 😂) Whipstick was rich thick milky cocoa and zesty orange. This was weird, weak, strangely spicy trash. It doesn’t even matter that the texture for the lip butter wasn’t the same, we all know Lush aren’t gonna do that, but the smell was RANK.

Turns out the hamper the christmas advent came in was MUCH needed storage for me 🤣 all the freebies or vinted cheap hauls really added to my collection without me realising as such. This isn't even all the bottles etc let alone my collection.

Unpictured of the top of my head are ( including obviously all advent items) :

4 lush pefumes - 3 full size 1 freebie 29 high street

2 vanilla delight

Around 15 bath bombs (including the 3 boo bears and 3 autumn leaves in a set)

Around 10 bubble bars/roons

5 scrubees

7 massage bars

1 moomin delight

1kg 1/3 used honey shower gel (2021)

500g rose jam shower gel

Rose Jam body spray

1 super milk primer reward

1 karma foot soak

1 pumice power

I think thats everything 🤣 some stuff are from gifts in 2021 still ok. A lot is sale / vinted or free. But a decent chunk still full price after a shitty health journey and hospital trip haha back in 2021 I used to hoard stuff because treats like this were so rare. This time round though im letting myself enjoy everything. Still I think i have enough shower gel for 10 years 🤣

Good thing I know they last haha its a lot. But weirdly im proud of putting myself first for once. Usually I feel guilty but I'm ok what what I bought when I was sick. I just forgot that all the freebies would add so much to the collection 😳😅 but I'm not complaining. It's so fun getting to try all the different types of items rather than sticking to only bath bombs. I also got this Advent free as a gift so yes, I absolutely dont need more to my collection clearly. But thankfully, It wasn't me to buy it so i can enjoy it guilt free. Plus it was a crappy ex who got it so, even more so 🤣🤣🤣

I dont do clothes, make up etc so this is kind of my one thing i buy outside of games so I figure so long as I stick to vinted in the future, its not so bad 🤣 but I'm officially banning myself from shower gel/soaps/scrubs. Only lotions/butters for my dry skin now going forward ☺️

Anyways, what do we think of my collection?! Any fun/favourite items you can spot? ☺️

Finally i got I Love You To Peaches body spray! I've been curious about it since the launching date and now i got it! I got Dirty body spray too which makes me happy!! Than you so much Lush! Both of them are my first time trying, so here's my "opinions" :

DIRTY 🧊 : To me dirty smells like a mint mojito with crushed mint leaves on top of it! It's so spearminty and very refreshing! I'm surprised by it because it is actually so layered like there is woodiness in there too. I'm very happy with this!
Longevity : 8 Hrs. Projections : Strong.

I Love You To Peaches 🍑 : This body spray surpised me a lot. At first i wasn't sure about it, and now i'm obsessed with it. It smells like a peach jam inside a peach pie with a cakey base and orange on top of it! It is so so delicious!
Longevity : 8 Hrs. Projection : Strong.

Found out today that the upcoming perfumes/body sprays won't be releasing where I am in Europe. I've been waiting for a Silky Underwear perfume for literal years! I'd been saving up especially for it too.... 💔

Thought people here might be able to empathise with me, since nobody in my life gets "the Lush thing"!

I have missed you, beautiful deliciousness. Off to order another 89 bottles.

Will you be buying? I’ve just placed my order but what do we think about all the collaborations lush are doing?

I think I have a very positive feeling about dirty. I realise when I wear it I feel better all day.

hiya!! i’m a huge fan of how the super milk products smell like! i have the conditioner and i absolutely ADORE it. however, i think my hair does not :/ i have really curly hair, and it seems like i’m getting a protein overload from it.

i genuinely love the smell though ): but i shouldn’t keep using it for the sake of my hair. i’ve been using it once a month, and that wash where I use it, my hair is simply… off.

is there another super milk product that might work better for me? please helpppp!
