Ordering from the UK site is cheaper...but if your order is too large its not cheaper. There's a point where shipping becomes 30 $ if you order too much stuff. Bring up the UK and US sites, fill the carts with what u want, and check the totals (with shipping) against each other to see which will be cheaper. And make sure you convert the UK site total from British pounds to USD to check it against the US website total. I did it wrong at first because I thought it was euros.

Thanks for the advice, Scooby!! I had been wondering about this too.

Hey all you lushies!! Let this thread officially be the place to congregate and discuss our new and favorite products.  If you have a question or a recommendation please leave it here for everyone to answer or view.

LUSHIES UNITE!

I haven't tried very many products from Lush, but right now, I am absolutely in love with the Herbalism cleanser!  I have oily/problem skin and this stuff really helps to calm my skin and combat against blemishes.  Every time I use this product, I feel at ease knowing that it's working it's magic with helping to clear up my skin.

My absolute favorite product from Lush is their Ro's Argan Body Conditioner. I adore Turkish delight and the scent of Ro's is so spot on! Plus, it makes your skin so soft and you don't need to put on lotion after using it.

I'm in love with the red shampoo bar, Happy Happy Joy Joy conditioner and also the Okra conditioner.

I've been using the sea salt scrub and enzymion face lotion and tea tree water toner.

I've been very pleased with all their products. I don't have a store around here but will be going to Vegas in two weeks and will totally have to find the Lush store there! I will go crazy!

Happy Happy Joy Joy is one of my favorites too, it smells so good!  I also have a bath bomb obsession.  Have fun in Vegas, hopefully it's not too hot when you go /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I am SO GLAD that I decided to Order through the UK website! I had *almost* placed an order several times on the US site while still trying to decide what to order and, thankfully, I found this thread last night! Plus side is I got to order the Rose Jam shower gel which is not available in the US!

Here is my order and the comparison between sites:

Lush UK Order:

1. 3.3oz/100g Rose Jam Shower Gel, 3.88

2. Jasmine and Henna Fluff Ease, 10.21

3. R and B Hair Moisturizer, 9.38

4. Chocolate Whipstick, 4.79

5. Grease Lightening Spot Treatment, 4.96

TOTAL = 33.22, with tax and shipping = 43.96 Brittish Pound Sterling (BPS)

^this converts to $68.65 US Dollars

Lush US Order:

1. 3.3oz/100g Happy Hippy Shower Gel, $9.95

2. Jasmine and Henna Fluff Ease, $45.90

3. R and B Hair Moisturizer, $22.95

4. Chocolate Whipstick, $7.24

5. Grease Lightening Spot Treatment, $13.95

TOTAL = $100.00, with tax and shipping = $115.51 US Dollars

^ $115.51 - $68.65 = total savings of $46.86!!

I always order on the UK site and I'm so excited to get my rose jam shower gel, I ordered the big bottle because I adore the scent of Ro's Argan but its too oily for my skin.

Holy moly! That's a huge difference. Now off to place an order /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Thanks for posting this!

 

[lady41]

hello ladies, thank you so much for posting the price difference! i placed a huge order yesterday that I saved 40 dollars on (even after paying 50 dollar shipping to us).I have received my "your order has been dispatched" email, however its not a normal tracking number. does anyone know how to track a package coming from UK? i have only an order number.

That's the biggest reason most people don't order from the UK site because you can't track your package. It'll just show up in about 10 business days. It's slow moving but well worth the price difference.

I was wondering how to track the UK package as well! That kind of sucks. Hopefully it will get here eventually! 10 days is not too bad though. Most things take even longer to ship from, for example, Haute Look! lol I am really glad I saved so much money and the Rose Jam scent will be worth it alone!

They have a Rose Jam bubble-bath-ball thing here in the states which is how I discovered the scent. If your not sure how youll like it smell that first before ordering if possible! Its to die for /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

*******Also, i checked my bank statement yesterday and the charge went though as about $70.00 Dollars. Its not too far off from the $68.65 I had calculated but wanted to make sure I posted this correction.

How did you manage to have a FIFTY DOLLAR shipping charge? Oh My!

 

[lady41]

lol..it was over a 200 dollar order and it only gave me one shipping option which was ups its like 48 dollars...it sucks that u cant track has anyone ever had problems with a box from UK getting lost? surely they have a way of tracking it on their end. i checked today and its weird that the listings on the UK site on most things are a bit higher on most things than they were the other day when i ordered. do the prices on Uk site go up and down? also does the Uk site send samples with ordes as they do with US orders.

 

[lady41]

triple post..stupid phone.

 

[lady41]

I was seriously trying to sneak this past my hubby but since its Uk the fraud dept. called him since he is the primary card holder. so BUSTED! I hope i enjoy the stuff hubby has put his foot down.
