The LUSH LIFE Survival Guide to A Day at The Water Park!

Yesterday, I spent a great deal of time at Hawaiian Falls Water Park for my dad's birthday.

It was awesome fun but the sun, the heat, and the chlorinated water made great effort to take their tolls on my hair and skin. However, the elements were no match for a LUSH user like me.

I brought along a few LUSH lifesavers that kept me going, and utilized a few more afterward that helped me recover; these are their stories....[I watch too much SVU]

The Water Park Survival Kit:

1. Tea Tree Water Toner
I spritzed this refreshing toner water on my face while taking breaks from the water slides and the lazy river; it rejeuvenated my face and kept it clean and oil-free.
2. Dirty Body Spray
A minty, refreshing body spray to keep you cool and smelling clean when you're taking a break from the water.








3. Fair Trade Foot Lotion
This foot lotion kept my feet cool and soft in spite of the scorching-hot, rough concrete walkways at the water park!

 








 4. Lip Service Lip Balm
This no-nonsense lip balm protected my lips from chapping under the hot sun!

The After-Fun Repair Kit:
You survived the day, now do some damage control on your sun-drenched body.

1. Eau Roma Water Toner

I accidentally got a little too sun-kissed during the trip, but a spritz of this toner water remedied the inflammation and soreness of my sunburn, quickly sweeping away that raw feeling on my skin.

2. Enchanted Eye Cream

This soothing eye cream really moisturized the dehydrated skin around my eyes and relieved some redness on my slightly burnt nose.

3. Sympathy For The Skin Hand and Body Lotion

Helps heal that damaged, sunburnt skin.

4. H'Suan Wen Hua Hair Mask

Give back the nutrients to your hair that all the chlorinated water took away.

5. Rehab Shampoo

Put your sun-dried hair into Rehab to clean out the chlorine while strengthening those tresses.

6. American Cream Double-Strength Conditioner

Moisturize and calm dry, fly-away hair with this super softening strawberry and vanilla conditioner.

7. Tramp Shower Gel

Did you receive a few too many kisses from good old Mr. Sunshine? Treat your sensitized skin with this ultra-soothing melissa and patchouli shower gel.

If you've just been on a day trip to the water park, or are planning one in the near future, take this list and head to your local LUSH shop or http://www.lushusa.com/ to prepare yourself for battle against the elements and/or fill up your LUSH stash with these products so you can repair any damage that does happen.

There should be more survival guides to come, but that's all for now!

LUSH LIFE Loves Squishy Soaps!

Shower Jellies!!!!!

Big ones, small ones, purple ones, blue ones, glittery ones; I love shower jellies! "And just what is a shower jelly?" you might ask. Well let me tell you, good sir [or madame]!

A shower jelly is a squishy, squiggly shower soap that's super fun for anyone of any age to get clean with! Although they're jiggly like Jello, they contain no gelatin so they're vegan! [With exception to Whoosh (the blue one) which has honey water to balance out the citrus juices, which can be drying]

The jiggle is caused by a seaweed base, which helps soften your skin without clogging pores. You can also stick them in the freezer or fridge and they get cold, without freezing. The combination of a warm shower and a cold jelly is great for circulation. [Cold jellies are also a great cold compress. Just sayin']

The Joy of Jelly is a super sensual jelly packed full of ylang ylang and jasmine absolute (a natural aphrodesiac) It also contains a dash of lily and rose petals, which are super calming, not to mention tightening/firming, on the skin. Great for sharing a shower *wink

Oh, Sweetie Pie. You smell of black cherry soda, you jiggle and shimmer. You make me a pretty princess with your smattering of glitter. Plus, an antioxidant cherry infusion keeps that shimmering skin in perfect condition. Girls, young and old alike, will always love this twinkly, purple shower jelly.



 Whoosh doesn't let those deadlines rush by. It's cocktail of lemon, lime, and grapefruit juices wakes you up with a citrusy smack to the face. Lastly, a bit of honey water moisturizes your skin and locks it in for all-day softness. Makes for a perfect shower on those mornings where you just can't keep your eyes open.

I used the Whoosh today after I got home from work. I was hot (it's 105 degrees again) and tired and in desperate need of a shower. I grabbed my Whoosh from my freezer and jumped into the shower. There are two ways to use this wonderful little shower soap; you can pinch off a piece and smoosh it into a loofa, which makes it lather and be more bubbly, or you can hold it and use it like a bar of soap (a very slippery bar of soap, so hold on tight!) which yields less lather, but cleans just the same.

After sudsing up with this cold, jiggly shower buddy I felt refreshed, awake, and totally clean.

Want to get clean, smell great, and feel refreshed and soft?

Consider it done.

Stop by your local LUSH shop or order online at lush.com to nab one of these awesome little sudsy buddies.

Happy Showering!
