"Tell the chef, the beer is on me."
Took a night time shower using Sultana of Soap from LUSH for the first time. It is very soft and seems more moisturizing compared to other soaps. IT MELTS WAY TOO FAST though. Also, those raisins and currants on the top are useless except for decorative purposes. They fell off and got lumped together around the stopper. :( I didn’t find the smell overly intoxicating though. I like strong smells in bath products…maybe that’s why. I topped it off with Aqua Mirabilis body butter and then Bewitched Massage Bar as a moisturizer. My skin feels well moisturized now! I have very dry skin. Most of you might not even need so much of layering.
Anyway, I am sure I am going to reorder Sultana of Soap again. Not sure how long I can afford to use it, esp. since it disappears too fast.
One shampoo bar equals 3 regular sized shampoo bottles. They last 60-80 washes. What?! Plus they are super effective. What could be better?
My LUSH Stash :) Not really a lot, but it is a lot considering the fact that my madness started only about 2 weeks back.
Soaps: Angel’s Delight, Lemslip, Honey Waffle, Ring of Roses, Sultana of Soap, Snow Globe, Banana Moon
Shampoo: Juniper Breeze, Squeaky Green, and a sample of Reincarnate (which I am using now).
Cleanser: Baby Face
Serum: Full of Grace
Body Butter: Aqua Mirabilis, King of Skin
Massage Bars: Hottie, Bewitched, Business Times, Strawberry Feels Forever
Conditioner: Jungle, and Forever in Bloom (sample)
Masks: Mask of Magnaminty (big jar), Oatifix
Scrub: Sugar Plum Fairy
Since the past 2-3 nights, my night time regime involves first cleaning my face with Baby Face followed by the serum full of Grace. I bought the Oatifix Face Mask ($5.95/pot) last weekend. I think the fresh face masks are pretty cheap compared to their other products. I understand that people don’t want to spend $5.95 every two weeks. I am hoping that it will last me longer somehow :P I don’t mind using it for another week beyond expiration date. Anyway, this is the first fresh face mask that I am using (actually have it on my face now) and it feels so moisturizing. The smell is pretty awesome too. I love bananas and this mask smells so awesome. I wish I could eat it, seriously.

This is what it looks like after one use- I didn’t have trouble smearing it on my face. It is pretty thick though. You can water it down using plain water or even better- MILK- if you have really dry face like I do. :-) I just used it in its original consistency though.

I am storing Baby Face in my shampoo bar tin- received the tin for free because I bought two shampoos.

Also storing Full of Grace in my body butter tin- again, received it for free.

My NEW JOB had their birthday celebration, on Saturday, and this was the limited edition product they had! Honey Hugs smells just like Honey I Washed the Kids and it is AMAZING!
Were you at the LUSH store in Macy’s San Antonio yesterday? :-) That is my store and I went to their Birthday party too. I saw this on the table too…weirdly, I never bought it. And now, I am regretting it completely! :(
Tonight is the date night with my hubby! So this is what I used-
My skin feels so soft and amazing right now :-) I wish I could eat myself. :P
I got converted to a LUSH junkie very recently. Spotted the store for the first time when I was in Vegas in 2009. That time, my impression was very abysmal. The sale reps came across as pushy, loud and over enthusiastic. I got a free hand massage (As far as I can remember), got intimidated and ran out of the store.
So, I stayed in St. Louis for more than 2 years and never stepped into a LUSH store. They have a full sized one and another mini store at Macy’s. Anyway, I moved to San Antonio recently and spotted the mini store at Macy’s over here. Could smell the store from such a distance. Got back home and googled the hell out. Found tons of Youtube videos. Even though I am currently sitting on 50 pounds (weight) of BBW stash, I have convinced myself that I need LUSH.
Placed a huge order with LUSH UK online because products are so much cheaper over here. Got it a couple of days back! I wish I could sleep with LUSH stuff on my bed =)
Anyway, I had my first in-store LUSH shopping experience today. Our local store was celebrating their 2nd Birthday. I RSVP’ed before hand. They had drawing every 10 mins, a special drawing for people who had worn LUSH inspired hats, and another drawing for LUSH legends. Lots of people also participated in some store games. Anyway, this is what I got-
I was really hoping that my store would have something like ” Spend X and get a goodie bag”. I even had my shopping list ready :( Since they didnt have any such offer, I didn’t buy much. Then again, I DID BUY TONS OF STUFF JUST EARLIER THIS WEEK.
It was pretty cool to meet other LUSH enthusiasts with very interesting personalities. Never seen ladies so passionate about a bath and body care brand! :) This one lady really wanted me to buy Karma solid perfume. She rubbed some on my arm and told me that it’ll help me snag men ;) LOL.
I’ll post a picture of my LUSH stash tomorrow! Need to get some sleep now.

They replaced my cracked iPhone 4 for FREE! No questions asked. I took longer to drive to the Store, in fact. It helps that I had a really tiny scratch/crack in the lower right hand corner…the Genius said, “You shouldn’t have to live with a cracked iPhone, esp. when it’s so new!”. Yes, my phone’s less than a month old. Maybe that helped? Dunno. Anyway, thank you Apple <3
The ceremony pics are great. Not so thrilled with the reception pics though. :(
BUT time to start thinking about a nice wedding album. :-)
Pls give me the ability to control this stupidity!! :(

I get to stay with my husband and have a real marriage. :-)
In the middle of packing my apartment— shipped 5 boxes through USPS. 7 more lying in my living room. Don’t know how many more it’ll take to pack the rest of my belongings.
AND I have a broken toe. Waiting for husband to arrive here on Friday and do the rest of the hauling.
I’ll miss Saint Louis & my coworkers & my workplace of 2 years.
I hope the new workplace and new unknown coworkers are good!
