Few questions...

I got my first massage bar yesterday, Strawberry Feels Forever, and am in love.  Not only does it smell delish, but I put it on last night and went to bed and this morning I still feel smooth AND smell yummy.  Love it ( Read more... )

I LOVE The Soft Touch and only use it outside the shower--it melts very quickly, moreso than the massage bars, but has a lovely scent and is a great moisturizer. I sometimes buy an extra, chop it into six chunks, and use those as bath melts.
I thought Strawberry Feels was limited edition?

ETA: Strawberry Feels is currently available on the website.

They announced a while back SFF was becomming permanent stock. Probably because it's divine and so many people love it.

To me the soft touch is far too oily. I prefer the massage bars. After 8:30 is only on the website-it's retro, some stores haven't gotten more SFF since v-day since it wasn't guaranteed it would become permanent. Soft Coeur is one of my favorites, I love it oh so much. Therapy and Manage Too are good as well, and I like Sore Labours and Bewitched from the retro line. Definitely give Soft Coeur a second sniff, and the stores will not have retro items. You might like heavanilli which is I think still in the uk awaiting it's us debut.

Oh okay, thanks for the info. I hate ordering straight from the website without smelling it first becausee, well, like most people I'm really particular about smells.

I want to say I've smelled Soft Coeur, Therapy and Mange Too in the store and I didn't like them... not sure why. I'll go resniff them sometime this week tho. I like sweeter scents, my fave lush products so far are The Comforter, Floating Island, Think Pink, HIWTK soap and SFF.

soft coeur smells just like hiwtk to me. So does ma bar bubble bar and honey bee bath bomb. Mange too is sweet, like white chocolate and peppermint. To me therapy is definitely not sweet. To me it's LAVENDER, with traces of orange and coco butter, but it's lovely on skin issues like irritation or stretch marks.

Hmmm, I'm not sure what I got out of soft coeur when I smelled it but it wasn't hiwtk. Plus, you know, it always makes a difference smelling it at home versus the store (surrounded by so many strong smelling things) and then smelling it and smelling it on you.

So you're new to Lush. :)

All of the store carry the same selection: Strawberry Feels Forever, Each Peach, Mange Too, Amazonian, Therapy, Nutts, Soft Coeur, Wiccy Magic Muscles, Iridescent Glitterbug, Shimmy Shimmy, Fever, and Business Time.

All the rest are Retro that are available online only. I can't speak for the Lush stores in Macy's, but the stand alones are well stocked.

I like SFF for my hands. Therapy is nice before bed, as the lavender is heavenly to fall asleep to. Wiccy was just the ticket after I began my workout and Shimmy Shimmy has been quite the mood enhancer on nights under the disco balls. I thought I would love Mange Too, but the smell was too sweet, so I keep it in my underwear drawer and now my unmentionables smell edible.

Ha ha, very new...

And thanks, I got confused with the whole online - retro thing.

Shimmy Shimmy is the one with all the glitter, right?

And hmmm about mange too. well yay for ediblel unmentionables!

I tried my first massage bar (also Strawberry Feels Forever) last week, I love it and i'm trying not to use it so often because i'll be sad when it's all gone :( lol

I think that's partially why I'm trying to find more massage bars that I'll like - so I won't use up all my SFF so fast!

I've been on a massage bar kick lately. Strawberry Feels Forever and Soft Coer are heavenly. I look forward to using them after my bath/shower or really anytime throughout the day.
