After years of using and reviewing Lush products, I had
the pleasure of meeting 2 of my fave Lush PR reps – Perry Sun and Courtney
McGeever about 3 weeks ago. (BTW, they
are insanely cool and had me laughing like crazy. Thanks, girls!)
While I was meeting them, I was given some information
about new products that will be launched soon, and given a few products to try. Here’s what I thought about the beauty items.
Eyes Right
Mascara
 |
I refuse to leave my house without wearing mascara. I NEED
it.
Okay, I’m sooo not as high maintenance as I appear; it’s
just that I love the way my eyes pop when I wear mascara. It’s the only beauty
product that instantly awakens my face.
Lush’s Eyes Right mascara is from the Emotional Brilliance
line that was released about a couple of months ago. The innovative line matches cosmetic colours
with your current state of mind. Sounds
deep, no?
Eye’s Right is a subtle mascara that gives your lashes a
bit of definition, but if you desire a little more pizzazz in your life, you
can apply about 4-5 coats (I did).
I like that I can use this mascara every day as it’s not
too thick and not clumpy at all. The
bottle is see through so you know exactly when you need to run to the store and
buy a new bottle. But the coolest thing
about this mascara is that the bottle is totally recyclable! So you can look great and be good to the
environment.
R&B Hair
moisturizer
I’m sure you’ve read numerous times on my blog that I am
a curly girl and my hair is perpetually dry.
I have to use tons of products to get my hair looking healthy and
hydrated (psst....sometimes I forget and my hair looks like a hot mess!). I have my staples (Shea Moisture CurlEnhancing Smoothie, Oyin Handmade Greg Juice and good old coconut oil), but
sometimes I need more products!
I was curious about Lush’s R&B moisturizer and
Perry was nice enough to send it to me (Thanks, Perry. You’re sooo my new BFF!). I read about it in a beauty mag which said it would
work miracles for those with dry hair and I wondered if it would work on my
parched locks.
I applied it to freshly styled hair. It wasn’t too greasy or oily. It had a pleasant earthy/ floral scent that
stayed on my hair for a VERY long time—which I didn’t mind. I liked how it felt (for some reason it felt
tingly). I plan on using it a couple
more times to get a better feel for the product. But all in all, I liked how it felt on my
hair.
Popcorn Lip
Scrub
Okay, this product isn’t as crazy as it sounds - you are not scrubbing your lips with a
kernel. The Popcorn lip scrub smells
like caramel corn and tastes like salty popcorn. Yummy, eh?
It is super simple to use. Just dap some of the scrub on your
lips, then you can either lick it off (don’t worry, the product is natural), or
you can wipe it off with a damp towel.
I used this product, and just like Lush’s Sweet Lips (a
lip scrub that tastes like chocolate that I used a while ago), it worked like a
charm.
