I was lured into a shop for the first time today and overwhelmed by everything. I have friends who swear by Lush but there are so many different things to choose from!

I'm ideally looking for a shampoo and conditioner/and or hair mask/treatment for dry ends, some kind of relaxing deliciously smelling bath product and an amazing skin transforming moisturiser. It was really busy in my local shop and I didn't have time to wait around for someone to talk to me, so thought I'd see if there are any recommendations on here...

Also does anyone know if their sleepy cream is safe during pregnancy?

'Big' shampoo (sea salt volume shampoo and my hair loves it).
9-5 cleanser
Any bath bombs
Dream cream

These are my absolute favs but I haven't really had anything I don't like!

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 02/09/2017 16:22

The lipscrubs (in the shower after I brush my teeth)

DS loves the Beard/Face (Kalamazoo or something) he's onto his 4th pot , he always asks me to re buy it.

DD likes the Angels on Bareskin but I don't like anything with a whiff of lavender.

Daddy O, purple shampoo good for blonde and grey hair, neutralises brassiness
Tea tree oil toner
Shangri-la moisturiser

QueenMorpheacadoChamelepen · 02/09/2017 16:26

The comforter is great, just break a bit off each time and hold under the tap, it lasts ages.

Celestial moisturiser smells lovely but it was a bit heavy for me. Just got sleepy, don't know about safety but it's quite a bit oilier than expected, more like a massage lotion. They will usually send sample pots of moisturiser if you order online and ask in the extra details box, can be handy if you want to test a few.

I don't get on with their hair range so no help there, sorry.

I love the daddy-O, too. Using rehab shampoo, at the moment, which is great but too tingly to use in the bath Shock. Retread conditioner leaves my coarse, wavy hair lovely and soft without leaving it feel coated.

The parsley porridge soap is lovely and gentle on my hands. I used to love to exfoliate with dreamwash, but I don't like it so much since it was turned into a smoothie bar.

KimchiLaLa · 02/09/2017 16:46

There's a bath bomb which has coconut oil in it which always leaves my skin feeling so smooth and I think it's one of the cheapest ones.

I like the sound of this big hair shampoo!

Snoopysimaginaryfriend · 02/09/2017 16:50

R and b leave in conditioner stuff. I'm doing the curly girl method and this stuff is lovely. DH uses it on his beard every morning too.

Curlyshabtree · 02/09/2017 16:56

Another vote for R &B hair conditioner (which I've renamed Hair BnB )
I dry my hair naturally it really does work.

Knope2020 · 02/09/2017 16:56

Daddy o shampoo
Ultrabland cleanser
Jelly face masks
Twilight body spray and sleepy body lotion
Ds2 loves the bath bombs
We all use olive branch, dirty, twilight and happy hippy shower gels
I love lush :)

Branleuse · 02/09/2017 16:57

I hate big hair - so hard to wash out, and the sea salt crystals really make my hair like straw. Only bought it once and didnt finish the tub.

I do like their shampoo bars, especially the one that smells like coal tar.
I also love american cream conditioner. Its not the best conditioner ever, but it smells amazing.
I love Buffy exfoliating bar,
soft coeur massage bar
figs and leaves soap
I also love Vanillary perfume and smell of weather changing perfume

I hate all their moisturisers, and their bubble bars are not natural, theyre full of SLS and make me itch

StayGoldPonyBoy · 02/09/2017 20:01

I like the honey shampoo bar and veganese conditioner.

I love the full of grace serum bar but it is v oily so use it as a night time treatment.

Celestial moisturiser is good, and I like Aquamarina cleanser. It's quite clay-y so good for oily skin, it feels nice and clarifying.

Shop · 02/09/2017 20:08

Dream cream
Charity pot
Aquamarina cleanser
Ultrabland

Passthecake30 · 02/09/2017 20:10

I love candy cane bubble bar, smells like pink foam candy shrimps...

theaveragewife · 02/09/2017 20:13

Snow fairy smells like Christmas to me, because it only comes out for the Christmas period! It's sickly sweet like candy floss, so probably not for everyone.

curlylocks101 · 02/09/2017 20:20

Seanik solid shampoo, Big solid conditioner, Veganese conditioner (fine fair curly hair over here!)
Enzymion moisturiser is the best skin product I've ever bought (slightly oily and prone to hormonal breakouts). LOVE the BB Seaweed mask too and Sea Salt scrub.
Wiccy Magic Muscles massage bar. I have skin tint, face powder, lipstick and eyeshadow from Lush too. Bit of an addict!

Now...a bath bomb and a glass of wine is calling me!

BetterEatCheese · 02/09/2017 20:26

Coffee face mask
Amy shower jelly - my favourite!

BetterEatCheese · 02/09/2017 20:26

Hairq · 02/09/2017 21:03

Moisturiser depends on your skin type but if it's in the dry side I recommend Celestial especially for sensitive skin, or Skins Shangri La for mature skin. Both only suitable as a night cream unless you plan to use a separate spf afterwards though.

Big is a really good shampoo - somehow seems to make my hair feel younger. All the prewash hair treatments are excellent. American Cream conditioner is good but smells very sweet and strong so check you like the scent before you buy it.

Hairq · 02/09/2017 21:05

Oh and Figs and Leaves soap - smells divine.

PaperdollCartoon · 02/09/2017 21:16

Dream cream and Celestial moisuriser

doleritedinosaur · 02/09/2017 21:21

Angels on bare skin - facial cleaner
American cream - conditioner, I never have to brush my hair when I use it.
Jungle conditioner bar - softens hair
All the face masks do what they say, they're really good.

babybat · 02/09/2017 21:22

Rehab shampoo (great if your hair needs a deep clean), Oatifix and Brazened Honey masks, Ultrabland cleanser, The Olive Branch shower gel (looks like they've discontinued my beloved Rose Jam).

BumWad · 02/09/2017 21:25

Dream cream
That magnesium clay face mask thing

Whymustyoubringinthebirds · 02/09/2017 21:31

Rose jam bubble bar - they also do a body wash version but only at xmas so I stock up

The sleepy body lotion smells amazing - don't see why it wouldn't be safe during pregnancy - I've been using it and I'm pregnant. Can't comment on if it effect of helping with sleep though as apparently all I need is a pillow and that's me out like a light right now

WizardLizard · 02/09/2017 22:10

Another vote for RnB, American Cream and Ultrabland.

Love Jason and the Argon Oil solid shampoo and their new Marilyn hot oil treatment.
