This is a big part of my life




My relationship with LUSH Cosmetics goes back almost three years now. I started using before it was in Milwaukee and it started off slow. Granted my first purchase was $130, it still started slow.

When it came to Milwaukee, I didn't purchase right away. I sampled Fresh Farmacy and still had my large Ocean Salt Scrub. Like I said, it was a slow but serious relationship.

Then I got the job and the full time hours. All of my products were switched over to LUSH within the last year and a half. I even started using products I never used before or didn't even know they existed. Like hair masks, toner, solid lotion, foot masks, face masks, eye cream and even lotion. Before this love affair, I was never in the habit of putting lotion on and I used Suave haircare.

It's an addiction. I have pounds of soap stocked up and up to 50 different bath products stocked up. My china cabinet soon became a LUSH store. This situation made the perfect set up for my Self-deprivation Assignment. Although I work with the product and constantly touch the product while showing customers, I will be transforming my shower. Specifically my haircare, skincare (face and body), body wash and lotions. In JMC 307 Joette asked what I gave up for this assignment and after my response there was a loud gasp from the classroom.

Here is before and after in my shower.

  4. Leah, it's only for a week for an assignment for my research class. =)

    I will still smell like LUSH coming out of work, just like you said.

    This assignment is actually making me realize I don't think I could ever really truly stop using LUSH...
