LUSH wishlist

So earlier today my best friend and I were talking about LUSH, which oddly she hasn't heard of! I'm rather surprised she hasn't heard of it as I'm a massive fan and talk about it constantly (so I thought..) anyway it inspired me to look online and save for a mega haul, since it takes me about 1.5 hours to get to one (using transit, there are multiples in the city). Me being me, I just haaaad to make a list, because I'm that weird/OCD.. thus my fab LUSH wish list! If you've tried any of the products let me know your thoughts!

• Softy: revive flagging spirits with a bundle of fresh roses
• Rose Queen: rose scented bath bomb, fit for a queen
• The Enchanter: neon citrus fizzer to remember gorgeous summer evenings
• Fairy Jasmine: makes all your glittering dreams come true
• Silver Cloud: sparkly citrus and gardenia fizzer

Soaps:

• Sea Vegetable: lime and lavender, seaweed and sea salt scrubber

Shower Gels:

• Slammer: Fresh Lime
• Back for Breakfast: sunny citrus wakes you with a smile and a drizzle of honey
• Happy Hippy: squeaky clean grapefruit gel
• The Olive Branch: sunny wash with olive oil and mandarin juice 

Shower Jellies:

• Sweetie Pie: shimmering, sweet smelling skin
• Whoosh: citrus

Body Lotions:
