Summertime Lush-what do you use?

April 26, 2007 1:57pm CST
I have noticed I seem to change my bath and body products on a seasonal basis. There are some scent and products that are just better for a certain season than others. Now that the warm weather seems to be upon us....what is your summertime LUSH routine.? I usually switch to Each Peach for a massage bar and perfer a lemony (Sexy Peel) or minty (Ice Blue) soap. I use Jungle year round ;-) And in the summer, due to my shiny skin, I use Fresh Farmacy twice a day (or more if it's really humid). What about you, what are your summertime LUSH products?

hmm, to be honest i don't really use drastically different products in the summer to winter. I will maybe use slightly more shower items than bath items, and probably more mint scented products, lie the new mint bath bomb that is coming out. Mostly though i stick to the same stuff, my staple items.

I can't wait for Haagenbath! It sounds amazing, I wish I could get some before the summer months, but it won't be available in NA yet :(

Same here, I don't really change what I use. I've been keeping some of the minty BBS especially for summer, but apart from that I just use the same kind of products.

In the summer I prefer.. Soap.. I have similar tastes. I prefer a lemony soap..usually I use Bohemian but I will ocasionally use Lemslip too (I prefer fresh Lemslip for use as a body "soap"). I love to use Lemslip straight from the freezer.. especially on hot days. Face.. I still use Lemslip (same as I usually do during the rest of the year) although I usually use a "cured" bar on my face (since it lasts longer when cured). I usually leave a second bar in the tub to wash my face. I always alternate between Lemslip and Fresh Farmacy to wash my face. I notice I use Mask of Magnaminty a bit more in the summer than I do the rest of the year. I still use Imperialis as a moisturizer.. but I only use it in the morning. Body.. I tend to favor Happy Hippy in the warmer months over Snow Fairy. Bath bombs.. Last summer, I used a lot of Still Lifes and Happy Pills. This Christmas I stocked up on Christmas Party bombs because I think that is a perfect summer scent. I can't wait to get my hands on some Champagne Supernova bombs!! Hair.. I will be a happy camper if Antiphilitron gets remade. This was the perfect shampoo for summer!!

Mmm, Lemslip from the freezer! That reminds me, my last 100g of Champagne snow showers jelly is tucked away in the freezer, awaiting a special occasion. Maybe I'll use it around my 1 year wedding anniversary in July, mimosa is a perfect bridal scent! I remember on my actual wedding day I used the merry xmas massage bar as perfume though...

I love cooling, minty products on hot summer days! Nothing beats a lukewarm bath with a big chunk of melomint and some demon in the dark or ice blue soap. And a pedicure with Running to the embassy followed with Fair trade foot lotion. It leaves me feeling so refreshed and cool. (But man, this is making me miss Freeze shower gel!) Other than the minty goodness (which Lush doesn't have enough of for my tastes), I also like light, fruity scents like Sexy peel, Each peach massage bar and Avobath. Lemony flutter is a must for my hands, since I work in the garden a lot. And of course the dusting powders, Silky underwear is a staple to keep my skin soft and dry.

How could I forget Silky Underware! It's a must for that summertime um...chafing... I had some melomint from the last DC round...sadly it's all gone now. It was fun while it lasted thought!

I definately switch over to different scents in the summer. I find that certain scents like chocolate or cinnimon are just too strong in the summer. Here is a list of things that are on my LUSH summer shopping list and what I'm switching from to use them: Summer Stuff- Pop in the Bath Sunnyside Hot Milk Anything Citrus scented Mint scented products Each Peach message bar Gorgeous Moisturizer (but only because I got it free in the Free for All this year, but was not strong enough for winter use) Frozen buttercreams and shower jellies Things I stop using and mostly use in the winter: Ma Bar Soft Couer Wiccy Manage Too Most of the Christmas products Creamy Candy

In the winter I'll use anything and everything from Lush, my favourites being Snow Fairy, 17 Cherry Tree Lane, Seanik and Mask of Magnaminty. In the summer I can see myself using a lot of Bohemian, Ice Blue, Happy Hippy, Happy Pill, Mask of Magnaminty, Tea Tree Toner and T for Toes. I like having refreshing things, and in my opinion nothing works better than those.

To be honest - I don't really change it up that much. I have scents that I love, and I tend to stick to them. The only thing different in the summer is that when I get sunburn I use dreamwash and dream cream.
