Why I am Obsessed with Lush

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to share a new brand that I've recently been introduced to.  It's called Lush and it is now my new favorite cosmetics brand.  Here's why...

1. The experience I had at the store for the first time was amazing!  A friend and I just happened to be walking by in a mall at Salt Lake City and we decided to go in.  An employee welcomed us right away and asked if we had ever tried Lush.  Both of us had not, so he literally gave us the FULL scoop.  He went over each section and told us about the products, how to use them, and let us sample anything we wanted.  We walked out of there with a bag full of stuff, smelling good, and feeling sooooo soft. 
2. All of the products at Lush are handmade, use fresh and natural ingredients, are 100% vegetarian, and they are extremely transparent about their products.  They tell you exactly what is in their products, when they were made, when to use them by, and even a picture of which employee made it for you.  The guy at our first store even said that none of the products are harmful...if you accidentally swallow or ingest something they may not all taste good, but you don't have to call poison control or anything.  How cool is that!? It's just nice to know that when you're face wash says it has lavender in it, you can actually see the pieces of lavender.  Talk about integrity!  They are very high quality and so far everything that I have used has been very consistent. 
3. As you can see I have bought a lot of products since my very first visit to Lush and after trying many different things I can honestly say that I love it all! My skin has seriously never felt better.  It is much more even toned, super soft, not too dry or oily, and the list goes on and on.  My hair looks shinier, feels softer, and grows so much faster too.  

I think it's safe to say that I am officially hooked! More to come on specific product reviews in future posts. 

Have you ever tried Lush?  What are some reasons why you love it?

Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Everyone!

We are finishing up the clean eating challenge I just hosted and people are seeing some amazing results! One lady has already lost 3 lbs.! It's amazing what a little commitment and eating whole foods will do for your body.

Did you know that there are only 13 weeks left in 2015? Imagine if you lost only 2 lbs. each week...that's 26 lbs. by the end of the year! I don't know about you, but that sounds pretty awesome!  Even 1 lb. a week would make a huge difference!

This holiday season is going to be different for me.  I'm going to stay on track. I'm not going to let baggy fall clothes and layers mask my insecurities. I'm going to lose weight. If you're tired of the vicious cycle also and want some accountability and support, then I'd love for you to join me for my fall challenge. It's going to be 21 days of clean eating and working out starting on Monday 10/5. If you are interested then leave a comment with your email below. I'd love to chat more and hear about your story!
