Livin' lush life

One of perks I enjoy in life is the ability to know every ingredient in your consumption or daily uses. It is unfortunate that we are around processed stuff, food labels containing some chemicals we cannot pronounce. I find it very important to buy organic produces (budget-wise, using the dirty dozen list) and it is also important to get some natural cosmetics products because it is what your skin consume.

I am so excited to introduce a favorite store of mine, Lush. I've been shopping and using their products for almost a year and half. Before that, I was a loyal customer of Bath Body Works. A friend of mine introduced me to a Lush shop in Georgetown. I fell in love and I loved how warm you feel when you step inside the shop. The workers are always around and eager to help you with questions you may have. They sell vegetarian and vegan cosmetic products. When I first visited the website, I fell even harder for Lush because they have the ingredient corner which holds picture and description for the every ingredient & their purpose in their products. You have full information on what you're putting on your skin. After using Lush products for so long, I decided to give Bath Body Works a check-up. To my surprise, I cannot stand every scent on shelves. I felt sick because my body recognizes the chemicals used in their products. That is a GREAT news.

Anyways, I visited my local Lush shop at Emeryville today and I enjoyed the visit! I'm Deaf myself so I don't speak- I have never once experienced a difficult communication barriers while visiting at ANY Lush stores. When I arrived the store, I could hear their automatic doorbell sound (uh-oh, everyone knows I'm in the house) and a giddy red-haired woman dressed in black, using a knit beret approached me. From there, she quickly grabbed paper and clipboard- we conversed and got some products I needed.

Here's an idea on what Lush stores look like and what they sell:


 This pretty much sets the tone of Lush's objectives in their products and customer satisfaction goals. 

 Charity Pot is a product that supports grassroots charities all around world- every penny goes to the charity when you buy this product.
Fresh Face Mask! Take a sample home and see if you like it!

Dandruff? No problem, mon. 

What can go wrong with a nice massage? 

One of my favorite product, works well after a hefty workout. 

 Bathbombs! Stressed or in for a treat? Drop the bombs while the water's running- savor the scent & oils. It comes in over 40 types of bombs.
                                 Bubblebars gives you a nice bubble baths in different scents
 I tried this product when I went to Vegas and slipped it under a jacuzzi and it was crazy. It was one of most foamiest bath I ever had in my life. And it smells so good.

                                               Need a trip to Kansas? Now's the time!
 Those are shampoo bars, you treat them just like as if they were soap bars on your head. I'm about to try this product tomorrow morning.

Oh, I forgot to mention this fresh and pastoral scent looming around every corner of Lush store- I love it and you will. Because of Lush, I get much more excited for my showers and baths!

Lush products are pricey, yes but if you size down and get what you really need. You will not be disappointed. One of best things about this store is if you are unsure about the products- you can always ask for a sample to bring home. They will give it to you. I have never once felt pressured to buy a product, that's the best thing a customer should always be able to feel. It is not about Lush's ability to have you indulge yourself, experience a friendly and clean environment, or bringing home all Eco-friendly packaging in every products they make. It is about you knowing what you're putting your skin through. And who doesn't want to live the Lush life?
