Iwould post a formal list of all the products you don't want, give people a general idea of what you do want and wait for the offers to pour in. Good luck!

Just made my list. Thanks for your advice, hopefully I'll get some offers soon!

I just bought the popcorn lip scrub and oh my it was delicious! I was worried it would taste like buttery popcorn, but it's really just salty and sweet. Love it! Question: it expires in one month. Does it actually expire? Can I use it after that? What happens to it? Will it be safe/good to use? Any of your experiences are greatly appreciated! Thanks, Lushies!

It's too sweet for me and is giving me a headache just sitting by it. I'm so sad because I (usually) love candy scents, and was super excited to get it. Anyway, because most of the Christmas stuff is gone, and I don't want to exchange or return it because I won't get the full value. Do you guys know of any swap groups for lush stuff?
Definitely a trade list! Or try selling on Ebay. You bet I'll bet looking at the trade list tho! I didn't buy anymore of that scent & kind of regret it now LOL. I still have one Snow fairy left from last year that I'll hoard. I also found a Ponche which I don't like lol.

You just bought it and its expiring in a month? I would honestly take it back. All lip scrubs I've bought have had at least a year and a half expiration when I bought it. But to answer your question anyway, I have used them expired and they were fine haha.

is it from the UK? I think they date their stuff backwards lol...

I never would have thought of that! I always forget that America's dates are written backwards. Almost every other country uses d/m/y instead of m/d/y. Good catch!

ok, I'm officially impressed at how fast Lush got my order out after I called to see what was going on! not only did I get tracking a few hours after I called, but it's scheduled for delivery tomorrow and it was shipped from canada and I'm down in texas!

Sacramento area

I'm in Sonoma county but my best friend lives in Sacramento so I'm up there a few times a year if you ever want to have a makeuptalk play date : )

 

[jesemiaud]

I am getting so anxious for my Boxing day orders. The weather keeps delaying shipment on my US order. I've received emails on 12/29 that my two UK orders have been dispatched so I hope that means that I will get them soon.

 

[mgarcia]

I am anxiously awaiting my order as well. I placed it almost two weeks ago and am still waiting. Dang weather is delaying my shipment and I can hardly stand it, haha!

 

[chaostheory]

My order came with a sample of "sea vegetable" and it smelled so delicious...but after I got out of the shower I was itching ALL OVER. I have really sensitive skin but I thought I'd be just fine w/ LUSH because they are natural, etc. Did anyone have the same issue w/ that specific soap too?

 

[jesemiaud]

Woohoo! I got my US order today...I love everything except for the Snow Fairy Sparkle Massage Bar. Sorry all you Snow Fairy fans but I cannot stand the smell! Too bad I got two since they were B1G1. I guess I'll have to see if I can trade them for something else.

I am also not into snow fairy!  But I don't like super sugary scents

 

[kawaiiwoofs]

I went to lush and picked up 2 goodies! I got the green macaron bubble bar one and some bath bomb that's purple and sparkley. Woohoo!

 

[TXSlainte]

My first Boxing Day order was on my doorstep today! I got 2 lip scrubs, 2 Sandy Santas and two wrapped gifts that I ordered because they didn't have the one I really wanted. I'm going to give those to 2 of my coworkers who really helped me out this week when my flight home was canceled on Sunday and rescheduled for today. They should get something, since I had 4 extra days of vacation. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

That's so thoughtful! 

I'm going to lush over the weekend.  I'm really excited.  I'm going on a mini vacation to Atlantic City and I really like the lush there.  They have really helpful sales associates and it's not the size of my closet!  I plan on getting a lot  Don't really know all of what I'm going to get yet though.  So far I have planned to get:

curly wurly (my favorite shampoo and I'm almost out of it)

karma kream (so excited for this, had a sample before and loved it)

a few bath bombs - I'm thinking avobomb and big blue.  haven't tried either of those yet.

a few bubble bars

I might try a lip balm as well.  My lips have been so dry lately and nothing I have has been working that great. 

yay!  I can't wait!

First I totally wish I was your coworker at this point! That is so sweet of you!! I'm sure they will become hooked on lush!

Second, has anyone tried the Gorgeous face moisturizer? I got it in my "Treats" package that my boyfriend got me for Christmas. OMG this stuff is AMAZEBALLS. I have been having a really bad breakout on my forehead for like 2 weeks now and my vanishing cream wasn't doing anything to combat it. I started using the Gorgeous sample like 3 days ago and my skin has really cleared up!! I am so upset though because this stuff costs $89.95 on the site!!! No way I could ever bring myself to purchase that!!!

 

[kawaiisquawks]

Got my order just now and it was my original order, nothing subbed lol. I'm so confused now but other than that I don't really care, I got what I really wanted to try in the end so everything is ok in my book.

 

[tacehtpuekam]

Got my order! So excited to try everything /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
