Maybe you can't buy love, but you can certainly buy enough stuff to make you delusional for a while.

Okay, flist, here's your chance to shine. If a girl was going to Lush for the very first time ever and just wanted to buy things to make herself happy, what should she get and why? C'mon. Impress me with your vast knowledge.

ETA: MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!! I bought, err, like, everything. I got two bath something or others, not the balls, they're big dissolve things (checks catalogue) bubble bars called The Comforter and Karma (yes, y'all are big on Karma). I got a Big Blue (It has seaweed! I'm trusting you here thepouncer). I also got the Extra Virgin Olive Oil soap, Coalface and Demon in the Dark (yes, on your suggestion S), oh and some Nude soap. And then, because I spent so much they gave me a big ass bag of leftover stuff from the holidays which weighed more than what I bought. AWESOME! Thank you guys. *hugs flist*

I adore Lush and Lush products, but the most important thing to remember at Lush, as Heidi8 says, is to smell everything. You need to like the scent of any product or you won't like it.

I get compliments often when I've conditioned with American Cream, but I don't think its as super moisturizing as they say if you're using a drying shampoo like Big.

Buffy bars are my favorite. I try to use it religiously at least once a week. It really does make a difference.

I really like their soaps, personal favorites are the honey smelling soap, karma, the lemon one and the olive oil one.

I really like Dream Cream the moisturizer-no residue, sinks in super quickly to be able to get dressed. I really like how it smells, I know some other people don't.

I have sensitive skin that doesn't like oils, Afterlife works great as a face moisturizer for me. Again, it sinks in quickly with no oily residue.

You must try a bath bomb/bubble bar. They're pretty much totally decadent if you use the whole thing like they say. My personal fav is Blue Skies bubble bar which I generally pair with a bath bomb to soften the water and make more bubbles. If you do get a bubble bar, the old "put it in a piece of old stocking and hand from the faucet to get more bubbles" really works and makes a difference.

No matter what you do or don't get, enjoy!

I made sure to got a big chunk of the olive oil soap because you all seem very pro-product. Also, I will make a note to myself to get the Dream Cream because you are the second person to say it's really good for dry skin and the winter is killing me. I Same with the buffy bar, I had a note to myself to get it, but of course it was on the other side of the piece of paper I was holding. Typical. Thank you so much for all the recommendations, I really appreciate it.
