Oh hey guys!
I was lucky enough to attend the Lush event that was taking place in my university area on Friday, when I heard about it I was ecstatic I mean who wouldn't want to spend the evening chatting about all these heavenly? The main aim of it was for the Lush store to showcase the Winter collection and I guess to maybe even connect with local bloggers to spread the Lush word.
There were about eight of us (bloggers) in total that came and we were welcomed by the lovely staff and offered fresh fruit, mince pies and a glass of bucks fizz. It was then that the night was explained and what would be going on. Basically there were loads of staff to assist us at different stations with different products to truly give us a one to one in depth chat about certain products and make it really personal to us.
The first station I went to caught my eye because of the large NEW PRODUCT sign, I don't believe that any of the toothy tabs were from the winter collection but there was tooth fairy which was. All of the new toothy tabs were a successful product from the Oxford Street branch and so the Canterbury store too began to stock them. There was: Bling, Miles of Smiles (minty), Oral Pleasure (passionfruit), Lime light (lemon and lime) and Boom (with charcoal). They are suppose to be used instead of a traditional toothpaste and they create a natural foam(and obviously a flavour depending on which tab you use). The price is £5.95 for a bottle, I have yet to try these and out and to be perfectly honest I've only heard bad reviews so I am dubious.
The next station I walked over to was the Shower Jellies, I have used one in the past but after this mini workshop I realised it is much easier to control without breaking it up! The lovely lady at this station was a true professional with all her facts and knowledge of the new jellies, we were shown the halloween edition Nightwing (fruit pastille scented) along with the two christmas editions of Santa's belly (apples and spices) and Snowman. These retail at £3.95 each which I think is cheap considering they last for ages and smell divine!
The next station found me being introduced to Kevin, who introduced himself as the "bath bomb wizard" he was definitely enthusiastic which I didn't mind as I find myself as excited when I purchase bath bombs. He gave us a demo on a new bath bomb and then he recommended that next time I use a bath bomb I should try and create a "cocktail" with maybe a bubble bar which sounds right up my alley!
One of the other stations was a "fun" station, literally, so the fun buchu bar comes in different colours depending on what one you pick up, it can be used for several things including washing your hair and body and one thing I was shocked out was the fact it can be used to was your clothes! We were asked to create a snowman and this was my attempt, I can see the Fun bars being a huge sell out with little kids and adults a like and for £5 it is a good price.
My snowman is pretty awesome right?
One of my favourite stations was where we got to try out the limited edition shower gels and body conditioners. When I say try out I mean on our hands not literally. The Rose Jam shower gel is just gorgeous and makes a really good alternative to my usual christmas purchase of Snow Fairy (I'm still stocking up on that). I also got to test out the Christingle body conditioner as I have already tried the alternative (which I love), it is an amazing peppermint scent that reminds me of candy cane. Yum!
All in all I had an amazing time at Lush, I got to meet the most amazing Lush team and new bloggers as well. The new products are incredible and you guys should definitely try out the new products! Thank you to the Lush team!
That's all for now,
