Boxing day Sale
Boxing day Sale
Wrnt to lush on a boxing day sale. We went on Jan 3. We got 5 soaps. 1 pumpkin spice (from Halloween), 1 goddess, 1 Baked Alaska and 2 Karmas.
It turns out pumpkin spice and baked Alaska were only $4 due to the sale.
Richard loves citrus soaps, and was impressed with the baked Alaska. However it is a soft soap and disappears quickly. Today is Jan 12, and half the bar is gone.
We cut all the bars in half. It uses them up a lot slower. Richard loves how strong the soaps smell. Its lush- is how he describes the smell. It has a big amount of oils in it. Other soap brands have much less smell.
I am surprised how strongly the pumpkin soap smells, and it is a nice smell. The soap is harder physically.
We have half we are using as hand soap and I suspect the other half will store very well.
Goddess is a harder soap as well. It smells wonderful. We used half and it might be around somewhere still. Its pricey, $12 a bar.
Richard used a whole bar of karma in one shower, and half the bar melted away. So we cut it in half and have been using it as hand soap. Just finished the first half today and got it it the 2nd half. Karma is a very soft soap.
I like using it as hand soap, the fragrance stocks to my hands each time I use it and its very pleasant. It seems to last a good while this way too.
We got a goddess solid perfume for $8, so half off. They are discontinuing it . its a slightly sweet smell, a bit musky in a exotic way. Its an androgynous scent in my opinion and very pleasant. I don't use it much as I prefer karma - for now.
We also got a sleep massage bar. We had gotten a sample in October and we had each grown more fond of it as time passed. It seems we could smell more interesting notes the more we smelled it. It made Richards hands very soft and healed the scaly rough skin. We are very pleased with it.
Our total was around $64. We traded in a few bath bombs.

I wish I did get the rentless solid perfume (on sale), and the snowcake shower jelly, and 1 more baked Alaska soap. Lesson learned: when its boxing day, go.for it. Just buy it!
