Lush Shampoo and Conditioner

I recently ventured into the world of Lush hair care. On a mission to find natural and healthier hair products I did some research and decided to give my good friends at Lush a chance. They have many choices and they all smelled amazing but I decided to go with Blousey Shampoo and Veganese Conditioner. (click here for other products I purchased)


Lush Shampoo and Conditioner

The smell of Blousey alone was enough to send me running with it to the cash. It smells so good. My kids really love it too. This particular formula is a gentle, non-stripping shampoo for all hair types, processed (like moi), damaged (like moi) and natural. The consistency takes a bit to get used to, it is definitely not your "moms" shampoo if you know what I mean. The first ingredient listed in it is banana and this is exactly what the consistency is like, mashed banana.

I apply this to my roots and  gently work into a lather. I rinse and repeat working it into the ends of my hair slightly (although I do mainly focus on the roots). 

I also purchased the Veganese Conditioner from Lush. This is their lightest conditioner and it is formulated for all hair types. It has a nice light fresh lemon scent and contains rosemary and lavender that helps sooth the scalp and lemon oil and seaweed for shine.
I wasn't really expecting  much volume and shine from a natural product but this shampoo and conditioner have proved me wrong. The results are soft, pleasantly scented, manageable and volumized hair.

 Will I purchase this again? Oh yeah! Although I do have Lush BIG sea salt shampoo on my wish list as well.
Have you tried any lush shampoos or conditioners?

  3. Wow the shampoo does look very banana-y... It does look like mashed banana. Does it smell like something edible? :) It's definitely better to go for something more natural. I always read the labels and the ingredient list now whatever I buy - skin care products in particular!

    Thanks for the lovely review!!

    1. Hi StephEnie, the smell is like a floral, woodsy, sweet scent. Kind of hard to describe but definitely worth giving it a sniff next time you are in lush for sure! Thanks so much for your comment.

  5. I smelled Blousey in store and loved it too! The thing is, I've heard some not so good things about Lush's manufacturing so I'm not sure they are totally ethical in my book.
