Karmalized

I'm in love - with LUSH. Julia told us about this place when we were in Dublin. It started in England and now is in 24 countries. Unfortunately, there is only one or two stores in the US, so I gotta order from the net. Anyway, it's Fresh Handmade Soaps and Natural Cosmetics. With our leanings toward al natural these days, it will hopefully be the next big thing in the US of A.

They have great soaps, masks, hair products, bath bombs, massage bars and so much more. I am addicted to their Karma soap, which is very orangey, patchouli, earthy, yummy. It's nearly 11 a.m. and I can still smell it on my skin from this morning's shower. I have two massage bars, one for relaxing and one for sore muscles. Hopefully someday, I will have an excuse to buy the Fever or After 8:30 bars. The latter is a chocolate mint flavor that you can actually, um, eat. I guess before that, I need someone to apply the massage bars I already have! I just got my first bath bombs in the mail yesterday and my Silky Underwear Dusting Powder (use your imagination).

Girls- this stuff is heaven for your body. All of it. It's very addicting. And guys, they have loads of stuff for you too.

Yeah, I'm the unwitting Lush evangelist, thanks to Davlynn who discovered it long before I did. I just sorta thought that Janice, Kristi and Kristen would have fun smelling all the soaps for 15 minutes or so... Little did I know I'd start a soap revolution.

And c2, I can't see the Author/email/url spaces here. Can you?

Hope this works, couldn't see what I was typing in the boxes. I must post another plug for LUSH! I recently got my Phuket bath bomb (that's POO-ket!) and a Hot Milk bubble bar, and my favorite soap, I Should Coco... all coconut stuff! Can't WAIT for that bath!

Me again. I just saw that LUSH is holding a contest to see who can come up with the best gift set idea. If yours is chosen, you could win $150 worth of LUSH stuff!! $150!!! Hmmm... time to start thinking...

The comment problem appears to be just Windows yet again. I am on my work Mac right now and it is fine. Argh.

Oh! there is one in NYC. I do have to go down there. Julia got me this nine soap sampler thing that was awesome!
