Lush
In a last minute rush before going to the States for Christmas, I ran into Lush, Covent Garden to get some cheapie Christmas presents. Upon paying, I was presented with a Golden Ticket, which entitled me to a free mini facial OR hand massage. I tucked the ticket away for a rainy day.
That day came last week, when I scheduled an appointment to redeem my goodies. Now, I know how these things work. They get you in there with some flawless skinned model who attributes her beauty to the product. So, I was prepared. I was only going to buy some face cleanser as I was out. Nothing more.
But, after spending time with the lovely girl doing the facial (she also did a hand massage while the face mask she’d applied was doing it’s magic), I was sold. All of Lush’s products are freshly made, and they smell good enough to eat. I ended up buying the face mask, two cleansers and some hand lotion, all of which were cheaper than my normal fare at Boots.
Lush is in the Covent Garden Piazza.

Hmmm, sounds to me like a bit of product placement masquerading as legitimate blog journalism. ;-)
Yeah. Too bad I didn’t get any free stuff for it. Unless you count the facial and hand massage, but I’ve now noticed that everyone gets a Golden Ticket. And here I thought I was special.
