So I was out for a Boxing Day run this morning (madness many of you may think) but not as mad I thought as the folk queuing outside Lush in the city centre waiting for the doors to open and the sale to start.

Please, what am I misssing out on? I've never shopped at Lush! TIA

Oh for the days when it was called 'Cosmetics to Go' back in mid/late '80s. No lurid colours but really good soaps and shampoos etc. The bath bomb was wrapped to look like a comedy bomb and there was none of the glitter and over perfuming. Tangled shampoo was excellent as was King Coconut and Isobar soap

Yes! It was great stuff then.

TBF on Lush are you sure this wasn't a regifted present!

Hi definitely not as I bought it from the shop. The Assistant helped me then took one from the back which I didn't check.

Both times I have been in one I have had to rush to out to throw up. I avoid at all costs.

I never have this with anything else, so makes me wonder what triggers it. Just the overpowering stench?

I love many of Lush's products - the bath bombs and body creams especially - but I won't shop in store because of the pushy assistants. I know they are under orders to be like that, so I don't blame them, but I do often wonder how much business Lush actually loses through not letting people browse in peace. It's an awful business model imo. I do often feel like I shouldn't be giving them my business due to some of their stunts and what they put their assistants through, like that awful naked thing.
