GET LUSH-OUS FOR THE HOLIDAYS

By PamelaAnn Campbell

 

I am getting ready for the season by checking out some of the 52 new products from Lush, “Purveyors of Fresh Handmade Cosmetics” or as I like to call them, “The Folks Who Make Fun Stuff for Fun Times.”

Lush has the coolest gift ideas for the travel crowd. I got a head start on the holidays by visiting Grenada and found some of the most delightful items to keep me (yes, you guessed it, C-O-O-L) all day and “all night long” just like Lionel Richie sings.

Any trip these days can sap a lot of energy, but WHOOSH Shower Jelly offers a quick refresher. Wash away those airport blues with a blend of essential oils (grapefruit, rosemary and geranium) and enjoy the citrus benefits of added lemon, lime and grapefruit juices. I love the idea of WHOOSH-ING away my cares with the Temple Balm . This tiny 10gram/0.3-ounce dynamo is packed with lots of “get-up-and-go” from the goodness of grapeseed, avocado and apricot kernel oil, plus honey water and mango butter.

Although the Caribbean has no snow fairies, the SNOW FAIRY Shower Gel couldn’t be left behind (it’s in a convenient 100ml bottle.) Who could resist sparkling hair and radiant skin, especially after a day at the pool? Scented with vanilla and almond oil, this glittering pink gel is heavenly, angel or not!

GODIVA Shampoo and Conditioning Bar is ideal for long locks like the famous lady’s.

Packed in a convenient tin box, the all-in-one shampoo and conditioner not only smoothes tresses with macadamia nut and coconut oil and shea butter, but also leaves an irresistible trail of jasmine, ylang ylang, cypress and palmarossa oil. Watch out girls, there might be plenty of horsing around…

For bath lovers, the HOLLYWOOD Bubble Bar provides cover with sensual jasmine, sandalwood and rose absolute, oh yeah. And when it comes time to kick back and relax, the MERRY XMAS Massage Bar is just the fit for you and yours. I adore massages and couldn’t wait to enjoy the rich shea and cocoa butter bar, infused with cloves, black pepper, cinnamon and orange. Now that special someone wants to take a couples massage class, I wonder why?
