You know just plain soap works too if bubble baths are too much. I know it's for the "fun" of it but really if it's being done so often your kid has a Lush habit, they're gonna smell like the whores. It's all a gimmick anyhow.
Do you buy your kids stuff at Lush?

Ah, I don't have that problem, but I don't think my hair tangles easily. Although, now that's it's almost to the middle of my back I can definitely tell it's tangling easier. I only wash my scalp with shampoo to get the oils off, otherwise the ends get too crispy lolAnonymous 1 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 7:27 pmI have tried the shampoo bars but I can’t figure out how to use them without tangling the crap out of my long hair.xsxpxixdxexrxsx wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 7:07 pm I do. My kids enjoy going there and picking out their shampoo and conditioner bars.

Lush products are made from almost all natural ingredients, with limited synthetics. The only synthetics they use have been tested and they use way below the legal limit. Literally everything is made from chemicals, water is a chemical. It's all about figuring out which ones are safe.MistressMonster wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 9:58 pmAre there any products you recommend that aren't chemical laden?

Lather the bar into your palm and then massage the foam into your hair and scalp, starting at the scalp.Anonymous 1 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 7:27 pmI have tried the shampoo bars but I can’t figure out how to use them without tangling the crap out of my long hair.xsxpxixdxexrxsx wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 7:07 pm I do.

I'll add to make sure to use biodegradable glitter, so it's safe to go down the drain.Nopeville wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 9:09 pmDo you have an actual recipe? My kids would bankrupt me at Lush, left to their own devices.hockeymom87 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 8:43 pmI use silicon molds. Then you just mix critic acid(makes it fizz) epsom salt,baking soda, coconut oil, a scent and a color. You can also had glitter or sprinkles to make it pretty. I make that bath salts and sugar scrubs. It’s what I give teachers at Christmas and end of year. They all have loved them and comment on them after we’re now longer in their class.

A lot of what I buy comes from vendors at my farmers market who are using all natural ingredients and make in small batches. I'm a big believer in buying local. OM Botanical makes some fabulous products and are available on Amazon. My facial regimen is from a one-woman shop called Wild House.MistressMonster wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2020 9:58 pmAre there any products you recommend that aren't chemical laden?

The oranges of the island are like blazing fire
Amongst the emerald boughs
And the lemons are like the paleness of a lover
Who has spent the night crying.
My soul was ripped to shreds on 10/27/14

noun
a trick or device intended to attract attention, publicity, or business.
Fruit shaped soaps and scented bath bombs is a total gimmick. One could argue it's a successful gimmick, but a gimmick nonetheless.
