msnerd Ava-Luxe's Red Tara is similar to Blue Skies and very complimentary. It is a bit woodier than BS though, and not as spicy.

msnerd I go through cocktailing phases. Right now I'm a purist and like to enjoy the products on their own, but sometimes I get a wild hare and start cocktailing like a madwoman. My favorite cocktail ever was 1/2 a green day + 1/4 Ole Blue Skies. Oh man, that was so...

Lush or Body Shop- which is better?

MakeItCount @MakeItCount (350) • India 12 Feb 07

I think that Lush and Body Shop have similar philosophies. And they both have great products (though they are a little expensive). I have often been torn between the two. Which do you think is better?

msnerd I think it depends on what you're looking for. TBS has scent lines so you can layer scents. I really like their strawberry scent and cassis rose. I think their lotions are crappy - they have never ever moisturized me. Actually, I think they dry me out more....

Opinions on LUSH's T for Toes

ctinabina @ctinabina (386) • United States 13 Feb 07

I'm considering buying T for Toes with my next Lush order. I wear a lot of shoes without socks, especially as summer grows nearer. I don't hear too much about T for Toes, so I'm wondering if it's an effective product. I've only...

msnerd I didn't find T for toes to be super helpful. I was kind of like, what's all the fuss? Maybe I need to try it again.

JJLoa44 @JJLoa44 (346) • Canada 14 Feb 07

In either a good or bad way. I'm talking ones that you've read the description of, and expected one thing, and got another - whether that be good or bad. Our noses always can interpret things slightly different, after...

msnerd Mine would be ginger powder and soap - totally smells like an ashtray to me, and Ole Blue Skies is back - smells like pine-sol.

Home Remedies - Tee Tree Oil

ossie16d @ossie16d (11821) • Australia 15 Nov 06

Tea Tree Oil Acne and Pimples Can help control and heal pimples by killing bacteria which causes inflammation. Wash face well, dab tea tree oil directly onto pimples. Repeat at least twice daily. For sensitive skin, dilute...

msnerd I really like the way that Tea Tree Oil smells, but I'm one of those folks for whom Tea Tree Oil doesn't do anything. I still like using it for an antiseptic instead of alcohol or hydrogen peroxide.

msnerd I've been alternating between Big and Cynthia Sylvia Stout, but I think I might need to switch because my hair isn't as bouncy as it used to be. Its still super shiny though! Maybe its just heavier because I haven't gotten it cut since August!

msnerd Totally overwhelmed by the discussions. When I found the lushies (thanks Crystie!) I immediately settled in here. Its like my little Lush security blanket. Okay, I did post to a thread about boys wearing eyeliner first.

Which lush product do you think deserves an entire line?

JJLoa44 @JJLoa44 (346) • Canada 6 Feb 07

They had Ginger - which has been discontinued, is that right? And then they have Karma ... But which scent would you like to see in more products? I would love to see the Comforter/YSTW in more products for one. I realize...

msnerd I don't know that I would want a line, like other places have, but I would like more layering options. I would like to have more lotion choices in different scents so I could layer those with different scents. I like AC, but I think if I had a lotion, a soap,...

glowsinthedark @glowsinthedark (189) • United States 6 Feb 07

With it's regular purging what Lush product do you truly miss. For me it would have to be Absolution!! That was probably one of my favourite products ever and I'm so sad I have no more!! Also I wish I could try flying saucers or...

msnerd RAINBOW WORRIER! Sandalwood is my favorite scent, and RW is perfect sandalwoody goodness. I have a couple stashed. They're so sad when they get old though. They just kind of sit at the bottom of the tub and don't fizz. They still smell good though.

Lush Fans - What discontinueds do you have in your private stock?

Withoutwings @Withoutwings (6992) • United States 7 Feb 07

Me I have half of a snow festival, 2/3rds of a banana moon (I think that's what it's called). That's all I have because I used my Letters to Santa, My Christmas Crackers, my Hollywood, my softy, and I just traded my Cleanliness.

Why are Lushies so loyal?

ctinabina @ctinabina (386) • United States 10 Feb 07

It seems like a lot of us are very loyal to Lush. I know for me, personally, I didn't really care one way or another what bath stuff I bought until I became infatuated with Lush products. So why is it that we love Lush so much...

msnerd I don't know that I am that loyal. I really like Aquamarina and Imperialis, but I think I could find another face care routine that works just as well. My face has really cleared up since I've started taking BC. I like AC, but my hair has started going really...

msnerd Depends on the guy and it depends on the eyeliner. For example, Alice Cooper, not hot, David Bowie in Labyrinth, hot. Brendan Flowers from the Killers, hot. Tim Curry in Rocky Horror, very hot. Iggy Pop, yuck.
