Lush is one of my happy places. Like Anthropologie, I could spend hours there… in fact I think it borders more on the edge of obsessive, but we just won't share that with the nice sales folks who work there. I don't want to scare anybody. Haha. I want to try EVERYTHING they have and I can't go in the store without getting one of their famous hand treatments. They sell a lot of their items by weight, so you can buy just as much as you want/need, they have a fantastic return policy, and will give you samples of anything you ask for. I love that all of their products are made without preservatives, that they are all natural and, strange as it sounds, you can probably eat most of the things made to put on your face/body. Not that you'd want to, but still. Can't say that about Neutrogena.

Their only Arizona location is in Scottsdale, 35 miles away from our house, but it's not too bad because my parents live very close to the mall, so I can just get my Lush fix when I'm on one of my frequent jaunts to visit the fam. Last week I bought a small tub of Ocean Salt, and I am pretty much in love with this product. I have so many favorites from Lush that I will share here, on a list that I am sure will only grow over time. But for now, here ya go:

Ocean Salt- face and body scrub

Fresh Farmacy- face wash:

Wiccy Magic Muscles Massage Bar:

Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter:

Aromacreme deodorant- aluminum-free, and works better than ANYTHING I've tried before!

Coconut Powder- I layer this over my deodorant, and wear it all over when I want to smell sweet and tropical. A fave of the husband- he says it reminds him of our time in Hawaii.

Big- shampoo. Strange looking because it has sea salt in it- but it works better than any shampoo I've ever used. Also worth a try: their solid shampoos. Non-messy and great when you're on-the-go.

American Cream conditioner- my hubby LOVES how this smells. When I mentioned that to the sales person there, she gave me the solid perfume version. What a deal!

Rub Rub Rub shower scrub- smells fantastical.

To treat yourself to one of their hand treatments: rub Lemony Flutter all over hands, followed by Ocean Salt. Rinse off, then follow with a dab of Dream Cream and you will have new hands… on your hands.

Natural products during pregnancy = bliss.
