Thank you Deborah for asking to go to the LUSH store.
Lush (trademarked in capitals as LUSH) is a handmade cosmetics company headquartered in Poole, Dorset in the UK. Incorporated by Companies House in 1994 originally under the name Cosmetic House Limited, Lush adopted their current name on 10 April 1995. There are now more than 600 stores in 43 countries. In 1994, husband and wife Mark and Mo Constantine opened the first Lush store in Poole.
Lush uses fruit and vegetables, essential oils, and synthetic ingredients in all products produced.
I can't wait to show you their products
I was in awe of it all!
Lush produces and sells a variety of handmade products, including face masks, soaps, bath bombs, bubble bars, hand and body lotions and hair treatments.
FROM MY HEART TO YOURS
HAPPY PINK SATURDAY
LOVE,
JEANNE
That's like the Russell Stover store in Florida but made out of soap. Too funny....lol....I think I still prefer the chocolate but the soap would be better for me. ;>)

I can't imagine how it must have been, stepping into that Pastel Paradise!! I think it would feel like being in a garden of every flower and herb there is, and an impossibility of choices.
Beautiful, and it's as if I can smell all the cushy little pillows from here. I'm SO glad you had such a wonderful trip!

Oh Jeanne, I had forgotten all about LUSH. How could I? Thanks for reminding me of my favourite store in Ottawa. I'm most fond of it at Xmas time when they have one bar just for Xmas. It's always YUMMY and it lasts me the whole winter. It's actually a massage bar, like the one you show with the pomegranates and the one with the hearts at the end.
LOVELY PINK POST Jeanne.
I'm just coming in for a little bit. Having a vodka and Fresca. I just looked in the Cabana fridge and POP.. there it all was. Swam today listening to our SB cd. Oh the wonderful memories. I keep telling Randy, that you girls haven't seen "the crazy Claudie" yet.... to be continued : )

I did not realize "Lush" would turn out to be a bath and makeup store. The products look like candy to me. I am so glad you are sharing some of your Canada trip with us. When you get all this many pretty ladies together, Canada will never be the same.

OHH my does this store look fab!! Is there one near you in Ashville LOL?? We could camp there over night.
Great post. Now you made me hungry!
Great shots of you and the girls too.

I love LUSH! There's a store here in Aventura, FL, USA, and I'm a regular there. I love their soaps and their bath melts.

Hi Jeanne, I just heard about this store from another blog! Their products sound great, I love the names! xo,

Well, after seeing all this LushUs Stuff I'm all in for becoming a Lush! You know though, I'm not so sure some of us Texans would know whether to eat it...wear it or play with it. I mean like Big Blue Balls...in cowtown??? Black Stocking Body Tint....I really don't know what to do with that... and Pink Sex Bombs...I'd better not even go there! Anyway, it sure made for a fun post! Oh! I got one....the Heavenly Massage Bar...if they serve drinks at that bar I hope they have something cheaper than $9.95...I'd never get to the Lush stage at that price. Happy Pink Saturday!!!

What a great place! I have never heard of it before so thanks for sharing. I liked the white heart with the dried roses in it. So lovely! Thanks for sharing! Happy PS!

Hi, Jeanne. All I can say about LUSH is WOW! I want everything! Google tells me there's a shop not too far from me, so I'll have to check it out. Maybe I should leave my money at home!
Posted by: Marianne | August 27, 2011 at 08:38 AM

Those soaps look fab. The pink swirl looks delicious... Must smell wonderful in there.
Posted by: Ann | August 27, 2011 at 04:30 PM
That was such a fun place. My mom loved the soap I brought her....and I also bought a different one for my daughter. HOWEVER, I need to pay attention to pricing better then I do.
I bought the one for Emma that was $6 and something...
after I bought everyting, I couldn't figure out why my bill was so large
cause everything was priced PER LB.
sheeeeesh.
We had fun everywhere we went didn't we, !!!!!!!!!
