When the first ever Lush outpost opened up in my home city, everyone was obsessed with it. It wasn't just a fad, it was THE latest fad. Everyone was buying bath bombs left and right, and we thought it was so cool to compare soaps and smells.
I knew plenty of adults who were obsessed with it too. Over time, the fad faded away, and while there was still no better place to get a bath bomb and many fans of the store remained, the amount of people complaining about the whiff and overwhelming scents of the store (even as they walked past or were in stores across the walkway) increased.
My Lush usage slowly decreased over the years as I just didn't have the energy to keep replacing and buying more products from there, and I dunno, it just faded away. As time went by, I started missing it again.
So when I got to Boston and realised they had Lush here too, I was pretty happy. I don't visit on a super-regular basis, but I'm so glad it's around. Their products are fantastic, and to be honest I think I love it more now than ever before because their range of products has increased so much and really improved since the days of my memory. Fizzing bath bombs, bath melts, crumbly bath bars, their shower and bath products, soaps, etc. will leave your skin soft, fragrant, and turn each bath or shower from a simply daily task to a wholly wonderful and exciting experience. They are usually gentle, and if you read up on which benefits each product offers (and how that can suit your needs), you can really gain great things from it be it softer skin, sensitive products, intense moisturization, glittery shimmer, destressing, energizing, calming, or just a helluvalot of bubbles. And they really do work! The massage bars can be a bit too heavy and creamy for me at times, but in winter/fall they are fantastic and I love their melty texture, whether its smooth shea butter with rose petals or grainy ones for muscle tension release. They'd be great in summer too, but be prepared to really intensely quench skin.
I most recently tried their face masks, and I'm a huge fan. The cupcake mask is thick and effective, making my skin soft with smaller pores, superrefreshed and clean with all the crap sucked out within just one or two uses already. And it left my face smelling of chocolate just enough so it was enticing not overwhelming for half a day at least. I definitely recommend many of their products if they suit your lifestyle. As for this store specifically: great layout, it's easy to navigate, not too crowded, and isn't cramped. Love their products, specifically Curly Wurly and snowcake.
Yummy! I love this place. The products are so fun and unique. I just stocked up on my favorite items and spoiled myself. I am totally clean and exfoliated and moisturized now and I feel and smell great from head to toe (I did all this with a cocktail, that might be influencing my opinion a little... but only a TEENY bit). Great product and GREAT service!
