a little lush therapy

i'd like to apologize for my lack of posts this week. it was march break and i took a much needed break from everything. not to worry- i am back.

i went downtown a few days ago and, of course, i stopped by Lush. i finally got to use my 15% off coupon (i have been saving it since december!!) i saw all their new easter item- i didn't really like anything however. here's what a picked up:

from top left: american cream conditioner, buffy body butter, sex bomb bath bomb, heavanilli massage bar, alkmaar soap, silky underwear duting powder, figs and leaves soap, dorothy bubble bar (i already used the other half)

my humble little lush collection

I adore Lush. All there soaps/bath bombs/hair products/etc are excellent quality and handmade!! Pictured below are not the only products I have tried but what I have at the moment. I forgot to include Lemony Flutter and the Fresh Face Mask (which is in my fridge!)

Starting from the top left hand corner- Big Shampoo, Snowshowers(Limited Edition), Angels on Bare Skin, Father Frost(Limited Edition), Ring of Roses, Ice Blue, Cinders Bathbomb(Limited Edition), Butterball Bathbomb, Angel's Delight(Limited Edition), Alkmaar Soap

Brief Reviews-

Big Shampoo: LOVELY shampoo with huge sea salt crystals. It leaves my hair feeling as clean as ever. It is a bit drying so use it with a good conditioner. However, I would highly recommend this.

Snowshowers: This jelly is a bit awkward to use in the shower. I waste a lot of product because it is alway slipping out of my hands hahaha. The smell of it is amazing and it is so moisturizing. Its a shame that it is limited edition. Oh well, there is always next year.

Angels on Bare Skin: This cleanser is very gentle and leave my skin feeling so soft. It is a bit cumbersome to use. I would probably not repurchase this- It's not one of my favourites.

Father Frost: This soap smells terrible. I got this part of the buy 1 get 2 free soap deal. I do not like this soap at all.

Ring of Roses: I love love love the smell of this soap. It's floral (roses, obv) with a twist of lemon- sooo lovely! I have and will continue to repurchase this soap. It actually contains cream in it so it does not lather but it does moisturize.

Ice Blue: This is a very reviving, strong scent. I ordered this online with one of the Lush Christmas gift sets. The scent is not for me- I prefer something gentle and subtle. This soap has a very strong scent.

Cinders Bath Bomb: I have not used it yet. I actually lost it in between my clothes are just found it a few days ago! It smells pretty good though haha.

Butterball Bath Bomb: It smells amazing! I think that this is the most moisturizing of all the bath bombs. It leave a gross, sticky residue in the tub though..icky!

Angel's Delight: I am so so so upset that I did not buy more of this soap. It smells AMAZING! I cannot get enough of this smell..in the shower it's even better. It smells very sweet which I usually do not like! I wish this was not limited edition :(

Alkmaar: This is another soap that I wish I bought more of. It smells great in the soap and is very moisturizing (can you tell I like that? LOL) I would compare it to snowshowers but in a bar- which is perfect and there is no mess haha! The smell is very hard to describe.
