Squeak

4 out of 5 rating

See my demo video below

Made with big chunks of sea salt and lots of yummy tropical fruits such as mango, papaya, pineapple, lemon, and kiwi. Smells even more fruity and delicious than Lush I Love Juicy shampoo.

It’s a thick consistency, sort of like the consistency of Big liquid shampoo. I attached a vid to show the texture.

This is made for fine, limp hair and oily i normal hair. It’s not for my dry, thick, wavy hair.

After using it I can totally see how this woukd make thin hair thicker. It works well for that.

A little goes a long way. I have long hair. You have to make sure you rinse your hair well to get the small salt chunks out of your hair. It smells so good.

This was a surprise in the Lush July 2021 subscription box.

Have you tried it? Do you like it? Or not so much?

I wonder if Lush will have it in stores for the general public or if it will stay an exclusive one time thing.

Here is my video

Infra Wig

4 out of 5 rating

see my 2 minute video of its consistency below

New for Spring 2021 in the Lush UK has introduced ‘Infra Wig’ soft styling gel. They’ve also introduced a second hair gel called just ‘Wig’, but they were out of ‘Wig’ when i was on the website.

Lush UK says Infra Wig is a ‘no crunch’ toning gel for white or gray hair. Gray or white hair, natural gray or dyed gray, has a tendency to turn yellowish depending on environmental factors.

Orange, Grapefruit, Vanilla, Lemon Myrtle, Tonka.

It has the scent of the Lush exclusive ‘Hair Dresser’s Husband’ spray perfume from 2010. Recently Lush UK rereleased this perfume in newly designed bottles.

I just took a pic of the Lush Hair Dressers Husband scent family.

Lush says you can use this on wet or dry hair, and it’s best to comb through hair but you can use your hands if you want.

i used it. It didn’t make my hair crunchy which is good.

Snow Fairy solid shampoo

This is a solid, round shampoo bar like Lush makes, only this is pink, with a silver star and is made in the popular Snow Fairy Christmas shower gel scent.

Here are some other, past Christmas products with the Snow Fairy scent. If you’ve tried any of these you know what this shampoo bar will smell like 😊.

Lush Labs Hair Conditioners Haul

Hope this video helps. I tried to describe the scents in detail on the video. My favorite smelling ones are Candy Rain and Valkyrie.

Lush Hair Marshmallows shampoo

I became familiar with these at the 2018 Lush Creative Showcase.

I have recorded a sink demo for you, it shows me shampooing my hair at the sink with the black one.

I explain each one in detail in my video.

Avocado Co Wash scent family

There are one or two other products that arent in this photo.

All the avocado co wash products made by Lush over the years and currently are listed below in order of the originating product at the top of the list.

Avocado Co Wash hair conditioner

Avocado Co Wash shower gel. This is a thick shower gel.

Avocado Co Wash body lotion

Melusine exclusive, limited edition bath bomb

Avocado Co Wash exclusive uk body spray

Avocado Co Wash naked shower cream

Minamisoma shower oil

I’m also checking to make sure that one of the Lush 2018 ‘bauble melts’ isnt avocado Co Wash scented.

 

Its a very sour lime scent with a nice sweet note in it. It’s quite a big burst of a limey fragrance made with sweet, fruity bergamot oil, fragrant incense-y yet citrussy frankincense (olibanum), and the lemony litsea cubeba herb.

There is the addition of avocado, which is moisturizing and softening for skin and hair.

There is rosemary, nettle, vinegar and lavender flower in the conditioner.

SOS

Shampoo bar

Made with the same scent ingredients as the ‘Orangutan‘ soap.

Made with patchouli, orange.

It’s similar to Lush ‘Karma’ fragrance but not exact, it’s not a scent twin imo, even though it shares some ingredients.

It’s less orangey than ‘Karma”  kind of a green and wooden scent with some orange.

see my review and demo video below 🙂

It’s quite strong, and I can’t stop sniffing it.  It’s such a different scent, nothing around quite like it except as I said Karma is somewhat similar. It’s less of a heady scent than Karma, more natural.

Men would also love this scent as well as woman.

Dr Peppermint

LushDr

LushDr-1

 

Ingredients: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Water (Aqua), Peppermint Oil (Mentha piperita), Spearmint Oil (Mentha viridis), Black Pepper Oil (Piper nigrum), Neroli Oil (Citrus amara), Perfume.

Review: This is a straight up, real smelling Peppermint.  Not sweet.  Bracingly pepperminty though.  It feels cool on the scalp and is good to wash your hair when it’s hot or when you need a little wake up. I loved to use it in the Summer, very refreshing.

Lush 2001 description: You can tell when the Dr. Peppermints have been unwrapped in a Lush shop because the scent of peppermint wafts all through the place and off down the street, drawing people in by their noses. This is a bar for baldies, those who have noticed a certain upward advancement in the forehead department. It is made with essential oils to stimulate the scalp including peppermint, which is also used as a remedy for shock and fainting (both of which can occur when men notice they’re going bald). Relaxing neroli oil is there to stop them caring whether they have hair or not.

 

Ice Blue shampoo

 

lushiceblueshampoo_zps25c9bb51

This is very minty.  It wakes you up in the morning to wash hair with this.  It smells nice and strongly of mint.  Lush made a soap called ‘Ice Blue; with the same minty smell.

Lush description:  How much mint can you take in one shampoo? How about an quick blast of spearmint and two different peppermints to perk you up from three directions at once. Mint stimulates your hair follicles and puts a bit of life back into your hair; it wakes up your brain too, so it’s a really excellent morning shampoo for everyone who’s a little bit reluctant to get up and running before noon. It’s brilliant for oily to normal hair that’s a bit flat, dull and dozy now and again. Ice Blue Shampoo was one of the Lush creative team’s first ever best selling, brilliant smelling products; we thought it was time to give it another go.

Ingredients: Water, Perfume, Lactic Acid, Spearmint Oil, Peppermint Oil, Fine sea Salt,

Below is the Lush Ice Blue soap

Kinky Hot Oil Hair Treatment

See my demo video below
6.50 20g

If you want enviously silky, hydrated curls, stick with us. Made with protective lanolin to strengthen natural curls, this restorative treatment delivers intense moisture without diminishing your bounce and volume. With uplifting ylang ylang and rosewood, its exotic fragrance will take your senses for a whirl too.
Place your treatment into a suitable container (we like to use an empty black pot) and pop the kettle on. We recommend taking this opportunity to prepare a nice cup of tea as well!
Slowly add a small amount of hot water to the solid treatment – and begin to stir gently. Take your time, adding water as needed, allowing the product to thicken slowly until you are left with an empty stick and a rich, creamy treatment (this can take around five minutes, just long enough for you to finish your tea!).
Apply to dry hair and leave for around 20 minutes before shampooing, to allow the ingredients to get to work, hydrating and replenishing your crowning glory.

Here’s a demo video i made showing me using Kinky hot oil hair treatment.

Avocado Co Wash

Ingredients:  Avocado, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Cocoa butter, cucpuacu butter, cider vinegar, bergamot, frankincense, litsea cubeba.

This product is Vegan.

 

I like this.  Unfortunately, i have very long, thick, curly, dry hair, and so using this isn’t feasible for me because i have to use so much.  If I had shorter hair, i would use this way more often because it’s nice.

Here’s a video i made of Avocado Co-Wash, with more info about it.
