Lush has become so mainstream it's almost tacky--I mean, they're in practically every mall in the world--but according to this mission statement, they're trying to keep it real. And true, I visited their Dorset, England, factory a few years ago, and I have to say I was really impressed by the way their punk rock-looking staff jams out while they actually do use fresh, natural ingredients to make yummy products by hand. Anyway, my cousin swears by their Flying Fox Shower Gel, so I gave it a whirl. HOLD THE PHONE! Oh Lush, my waning interest in you is so renewed. If you like sultry, warm scents that manage to be sexy, not cloying (Jessica Simpson Dessert line, I'm talking to you), then you'll eat this bad boy up, too. It's got four types of honey to make your skin feel totally moisturized, and the scent combined with jasmine and ylang ylang make this my favorite new swear by body product, too.

In fact, I'm so obsessed that I'm going to order Flying Fox Balm (a moisturizing "cake" that doubles as a solid perfume), and their classic cult favorite Godiva, a solid shampoo/conditioner that smells like jasmine and uses cocoa butter to hydrate. Evidently, you just rub it on your scalp until it starts getting sudsy, skin care for your scalp. Um, is it resourceful or just overboard if I just washed my lingerie with the shower gel?
