(no subject)
Under the cut lies several in-stock items for people who are just as in love with Lush products as I am. Most of them are Lush's best-sellers while a few others are my own personal favourites. Having been to quite a few Lush stores, I'm more or less acquainted with their products and scents (plus Google is God) so should you have any questions about any products (ingredients/size/usage/etc), feel free to ask !
While I do include some handling charge for hand-carrying the items back from overseas, prices remain reasonable and not ridiculously cut-throat. Do keep in mind that ordering Lush items from the website itself incurs a hefty shipping charge of approximately SGD$4 per item. Furthermore, you will have to wait quite a while for the items to reach you .....................
P/s, I offer free postage for an order >$25.
Pp/s, I pop free samples into packages every now and then too !
BATH BALLISTICS a.k.a. BATH BALLS
... were invented for people who wanted an explosive bathing experience. Not only do they soften and deodorise the water, bath ballistics do exactly the same for our body. When a bath ballistic is dropped into a warm bath, an effervescent explosion occurs, releasing lovely scents to soothe whatever moods we are in. Soak your cares away today !
BUTTERBALL
A butter ball of heaven pulls you in with a custard cream and vanilla scent but that's not all it does - it is made with chunks and loads of cocoa butter to soften and smoothen the skin. It really does look unassuming as compared to the rest of the ball ballistics but as they say, looks are deceiving.

BUBBLE BARS
... are packed full of white, frothy bubbles. Suitable for people who do not have the luxury that bath tub owners have, all these bubble bars need is running water to turn them into bubble mountains.

Just crumble the bars under running water and revel in the big piles of bubbles. A word of caution though: You might need a snorkel if you get over enthusiastic ! Of course it's not all just bubbles. These bubble bars are packed with oils and fragrances that gets released when they hit the water. What's not to love ?
