 Lush welcome the New Year with some top tips for a new you.

It’s a New Year, so welcome in a new you!  Start afresh and make a concerted effort to make some changes to your lifestyle … for the better.  Here are a few suggestions from Lush 

GO GREEN & GET NAKED … AND IT WON’T COST THE EARTH!

Being green and environmentally aware doesn’t necessarily mean you have to spend a fortune, or give up all your favourite luxury products.  Lush make it easy for you to help the planet by offering a whole shop full of lovely, fresh handmade cosmetics made from the finest natural ingredients that aren’t tested on animals in any way, shape or form (RSPCA Good Business Winners 2006 & 2007).  

We also like being naked and encourage you to do the same!  Along with losing your inhibitions, lose the bottle and choose from our innovative range of solid products that allow minimal or no preservatives and packaging (which means less waste heading to landfill).  Squeaky Green (£4.40) is part of our solid shampoo bar range and recently won an award for environmentally friendly packaging at The Green Awards. Shampoo bars are small, convenient, easy to carry and easy to use.  Use them just like soap to effectively clean the hair of everyday dirt and grime.  Each bar lasts for over 80 washes, the equivalent of 3 bottles of 250g shampoo, which is both kinder for the environment and your wallet.  Squeaky Green is extremely gentle on the hair, it gives lovely shine and fragrance.  Rosemary helps to alleviate dandruff and promote hair growth; while peppermint helps to stimulate the hair follicles;

Chamomile blue oil is soothing for itchy or flaky scalp conditions and vanilla absolute and rose absolute make for a gorgeous fragrance.

DON’T SLEEP IN YOUR MAKE-UP

In cold weather, skin can become dry and flaky.  To combat these ailments you must clean skin efficiently.  Never leave your make-up on over-night, no matter how tired you are!  If not removed properly, dirt and grime will build-up on the skin causing spots.Baby Face (£3.87) is a preservative-free, solid facial cleanser that gently but effectively cleanses, tones and moisturises the skin, leaving it rejuvenated.Contains beeswax, fair trade cocoa butter and organic coconut oil and avocado butter in an innovative, easy to use solid form that thoroughly deep cleanses the pores, leaving the surface of the skin moisturised.


GIVE UP CHOCOLATE

If chocolate is a weakness that you’re trying to wean yourself off, then Lush can help.  Indulge in the following calorie/guilt-free treats that won’t go straight to your hips!  Cupcake (£4.84 for 75g) is an exceedingly good facemask for all ages.  Especially good for problem skins, the deep cleansing rhassoul mud absorbs excess sebum; fair trade cocoa butter and glycerine soften, while spearmint and peppermint essential oils balance and stimulate the skin.  Smother the cake-like mix all over your face, leave for up to 10 minutes and wash off, leaving skin soft and smooth. Who says chocolate isn’t good for your skin?!


DRINK LESS ALCOHOL


Probably a bit of a tall order for most of us, so instead we recommend Rehab (£4.36 for 100g), a deeply cleansing, strengthening and conditioning shampoo for hair that’s been neglected and/or abused.  Vitamin and enzyme rich, it’s made with Lush’s unique and wonderfully potent blend of the fresh organic juices of papaya, pineapple and kiwi that digest dirt and excess sebum without causing the hair stress.
