text: Oh Lush how I love thee. I was fortunate to discover Lush in 2000 while traveling in Sweden. At that time I bought as much as I could fit into my backpack and brought it back to the States! Yes I was a Lush smuggler.Every time I returned to Europe I bought all the Lush products I could. I think since 2000 I have been to a Lush store in over 12 countries! Even Iceland had a store before the US did!\nSince I was traveling a decent amount my favorite product was and still is their shampoo bars. They are great to pack since they don't take up much space and you don't have to worry about the liquid ban!\n\nOne negative thing is that Lush will discontinue items- including my favorite shampoo bar ever- Jumping Juniper =(\n\nThere is an amazing sale after Christmas where their poxed sets are buy 1 get 2 free!!!\n\nThe only reason I can't give the store 5 stars is the odor. Some people really like the smell in the store, but for me it is overpowering and I have to leave the store for a few min. while shopping in order to breathe. A larger store doesn't smell quite as strong as the FS store. I think more ventilation is in order. \n\nBut overall go forth and shop!
