My most recent Lush purchases & favorites!

I can't believe I haven't made a post in nearly a year! Life is going by way too fast. I also abandoned my YouTube channel for 4 months so I have so many new products that I've discovered and been loving that I'm dying to share my thoughts about! 




Recently I made two (or maybe 3..shh) trips to Lush and I got a few new products I've been planning on purchasing for a while now, and some that I never thought I would purchase.


Ocean Salt - a product I've been wanting to purchase since I first got into Lush and I finally did! After receiving two samples of Ocean Salt, I loved both and decided it was worth the splurge. I purchased the small tub, 4.2 oz for $25.95. However, since Lush products are all natural and made of fresh ingredients they have a relatively short shelf life. This small pot will last me a very long time considering a little bit goes a long way! Ocean salt is one of Lush's many vegan products; containing coconut, lime, vodka and avocado. It hydrates dry skin as well as deep cleans dirt out of blocked pores and is beneficial for those with blemishes. 


 Miranda Soap - This is one of Lush's vegan soaps made with kiwi, exotic fruit and flower essential oils. It smells amazing and is great for shaving and also using as a hand soap or body wash in the shower. It has a very mild, non over powering scent. Personally when I smell it, it smells like kiwi and tropical fruit (I'm terrible at describing scents). 






The Godmother Soap - This was a must buy simply because Godmother is the same exact scent as Snow Fairy shower gel, which if you ask me, is the most heavenly scent on earth. It's a bubblegum/candy floss scent that is to die for. I personally hate sickly sweet scents but this one is an exception, something about it is just magical (the Snow Fairy Shower Gel too!) I always said I wish Lush would come out with a snow fairy body butter and this holiday season they made my dreams come true - a Snow Fairy Sparkle Bar. It's a massage bar but has the consistency of a body butter. They come solid and I put one in a massage bar tin, mashed it up, now I have Snow Fairy body butter!

Herbalism Cleanser was a facial cleanser I was interested in trying for quite a few months before I finally decided to purchase it. I have oily, acne prone skin and that is exactly what this face wash is designed for. Again, this is another one of the oodles of vegan products Lush offers. Herbalism is made up of rosemary, nettle, chamomile and also kaolin clay which is made to deep clean pores. It's recommended paired with Grease Lightning, which I haven't got around to trying out yet!
Angels on Bare Skin is a cleanser I never really considered trying. At the time I purchased this (before Herbalism), I was using Dark Angels as a daily face wash and it was just too rough for every day. Angels on Bare Skin is a cleanser made for all skin types and again, a vegan product. It is a lovely, gentle cleanser for every day. I recently ran out of it and I am definitely going to repurchase it. This cleanser is made up of kaolin clay, ground almonds, lavender and rose.




Phew, I think that's enough for this post. I feel like a teacher that lectures for too long and loses everyone's attention haha. I will be making a part two to this so check that out if you're obsessed with Lush even half as much as I am :)
