I have been using Lush Cosmetics's products since 2015 up until now and I have always loved them. Their products are environmentally friendly, are made from natural products and they are completely against testing their products on animals. Lush offers many cosmetic products such as: bath bombs, bubble bars, bath soaks, shower gels and jellies, shampoos and conditioners, make-up, skincare, hair care, creams and massage bars. They have many varieties in all of their products which I love because you can find the product that best suites you and they all have different scents and colours!
SHOWER GELS
LORD OF MISRULE:
I bought this shower gel during Christmas time close to the end of 2016 – as it is part of the Christmas range and I didn’t want to miss out like I did last time when they’d sold out. I absolutely love this shower gel so much and it has the most amazing smell, which leaves me smelling just like it after I’ve used it! It has a spicy scent (black pepper) mixed with vanilla and patchouli. I decided to opt for the biggest shower gel they had available which was the 500ml, you only need a drop of this shower gel- which goes a long way. This shower gel was R295 which is quite pricey ( you can opt for a smaller bottle which will be cheaper) but it has lasted me so long and I’m in love with this shower gel, I highly recommend you try this one!

SNOW FAIRY:
When I ordered my huge Lush haul close to the end of 2015 when their Christmas collection dropped I was so super excited to try this shower gel. Snow Fairy is always described as a 'cult classic' by Lushies and it sells out fast every year. It was the first thing I looked for when I ordered my products online. I only ordered a small 75ml bottle because I wasn't entirely sure if I would like it as I was ordering it online and did not know what it smelt like yet. When I opened the bottle and smelt it I wasn't sure if I liked it because it was very strong and smelt very sweet, but when I used it that night in the bath I fell in love with it.

BATH BOMBS
Lush has the most spectacular bath bombs that are humongous and smell so amazing! There is such a big variety to choose from that I am pretty sure you will definitely find one that you will love.
TWILIGHT BATH BOMB:
The first time I tried this bath bomb was in 2015, I was especially excited to try it because I had seen the beautiful displays it puts on in the bath. It has a nice spicy scent which I instantly loved, and makes the bath pink and blue and then turns purple with silver glitter floating in the water (most people would immediately decide they wouldn't want glitter all over them but Lush uses seaweed to make their glitter so it eventually dissolves and it doesn't really stick to you). This will probably always be one of my favourite bath bombs. Even though Twilight puts on quite a display it is also the perfect bath bomb for relaxing as it contains lavender oil, tonka absolute gives Twilight its sweet scent and benzoin resinoid which has anti-inflammatory properties. This bath bomb is priced at R59.50.

SEX BOMB BATH BOMB:
This was one the very first bath bombs I tried, I wouldn't say it is one of my absolute favourites but I did enjoy it. It is more of a relaxing and sensual bath bomb and doesn't put on a display with glitter, so if you are looking for a more relaxing bath bomb then this one will be perfect for you! Sex bomb has ylang-ylang oil and jasmine flower absolute giving it a nice, sweet scent. It is also R59.50.

THINK PINK BATH BOMB:
Think Pink falls into my list of favourites from Lush. It is a beautiful fuchsia bath bomb with lots of silver glitter all around it. When it goes into the bath it turns the water instantly pink with white with silver glitter floating everywhere. Think Pink also has the most wonderful smell (tonka absolute) and it has nice relaxing properties from the lavender oil. This bath bomb is R69.50.

FROZEN BATH BOMB:
Frozen is very different to most of the bath bombs that I usually tend to go for. It is a blue bath bomb and it has more of a fresh and citrus scent. Frozen puts on a gorgeous display with light blue and silver glitter. It doesn't look Lush is currently selling the Frozen bath bomb so I can't put a price down for it.

BUBBLE BARS
The biggest reason why I love Lush's bubble bars is that you don’t have to use it all in one go, you can break a piece off each time you’d like to use it, so it lasts a long time.
THE COMFORTER:
The Comforter was the first bubble bar I tried from Lush and instantly fell in love with it, this one is also one of my ultimate favourites from Lush! Every time I go into Lush I make sure I pick one up. The Comforter turns the bath a light pink colour with lots of bubbles and has a sweet vanilla scent, it also contains bergamot oil and cypress oil which help with uplifting and relaxing. This bubble bar is R78.50.

Those are all the Lush products I have been using over the past few years and I hope that this might encourage some of you to try their wonderful products (if you never have) and that this review is helpful. I really do recommend that you try Lush and you’ll definitely enjoy your experience in any of their stores, they have great customer service with the friendliest staff, the store smells amazing and is so colourful with all their vibrant products!
