I used to be a big Lush fan (and, in the old days, if you went in on Boxing Day and spent over a certain amount, you could get anything in the whole shop free, even the big hat boxes... not sure if it's the same now) but am now more of a Body Shop fan... I think I just find it a bit more luxurious.

Hate most of it, the smell from Lush shops makes me feel ill.

I shopped in Body shop until Lush came along - and eveything from Body shop seemed a bit rubbish after that! I find the Lush stuff works sooo much better and is just better quality generally. Plus the staff in my local store are all really lovely, but the body shop ones are a bit weird and watch you as you walk around the shop!
I sometimes go into Lush in my lunch break just to breathe in the smell for a few seconds, it relaxes me

Body Shop Satsuma shower gel is my absolute favourite, but I'd probably have to go for Lush for the bath bombs and the moisturisers. They used to do a soap that I loved but then they discontinued it :(

Same here. It's so cheap it's almost unbelieveible.

I do really like Lush but it's expensive. I've started buying people bath bombs & stuff from these guys. They're really pretty and alot cheaper. I bought my mum the chocolate gift set and she said it smelt really chocolate-y and even smelt like it when she put it in the bath.

I tend to hold my breath whenever I walk past the Chester branch; otherwise it sets off a sneezing fit. I've never been in the shop. The Body Shop isn't quite so bad, though I don't really have an interest in products from either place.

The same branch gives me headaches (so you must live somewhere near me!), and makes me sneeze too.

I am all woman and I dont shop at either of those stores. Find Body Shop a little bit expensive for my tastes.

Not all all mike, was in there the other day and a man was getting advice on a product. I see lots of men shop in the body shop, but omg one of the mens perfumes smells so nice i bought it for someone (in a gift pack i got for half price with the voucher code, so perfume, body wash and deo for £7.50)!

I stick with the body shop since i know their products don't irritate my sensitive skin. Last year i bought my best friend a lush product and whilst i was in there the assistant was explaining there are lush products for sensitive skin, but i found when i went in there it was very strong smelling which is lovely for a little while but it put me off slightly. My best friend loves lush products but i'm still weary of trying them myself as my skin isn't at it's best.

I like Lush more cause they have contracts wityh individual enterpreneurs from the 3d world countries. Thus, they help people feed their children, and I love the feeling of being a part of it

Neither. They both stink. I can't even walk next to them.



PM me if you want a PDF copy of the ICD-10 or the Mental Health Act 1983/2007. I ALSO HAVE THE DSM-V BOOK and am a pharmacology student.

I have a visual impairment / neurological problems so I need people to type in clear text and no funny fonts. Also excuse any typos, my vision blocks things out.
I have autism and have problems communicating, PMs included.
Just becasue I type well doesn't mean I speak well. I am only part time verbal.

Oh, I forgot to add - I love Body Shop for their make-up too. Their foundation is the only one I've found that's perfect for my skin, and i've tried a lot!

Body Shop Clearance Shop sounds soooo awesome! I need one of these in my life!

I just got BB Cream from Body Shop and concealer as I look like a spotty monster.... but I love that the staff are so helpful and will help you work out what is best for you.

Lush should not exist in my eyes due to the smell.
