hangover? LUSH uses various different alcoholic ingredients that please your
body, mind and soul!

a cream-based facial scrub made with both coarse and finer sea salts to help
invigorate the skin as well as exfoliate. The granules of salt themselves
contain minerals which are beneficial to the skin. Contains fresh lime crushed
in vodka to wash away excess oils on the skin, organic avocado butter and cocoa
butter to soften and fresh grapefruit infusion, which has an a stimulating,
tonic action on the skin and washes away oils. Ocean Salt’s blend of oils
include seaweed absolute, lime oil and violet leaf absolute to promote its
cleansing, tonic and detoxifying action.
RED WINE
BADA BING BADA BOOM
Jelly $5.95/100g
Get down and dirty as you get clean! This X-rated shower gel is full of
wonderfully sexy oils, including clary sage, rose and jasmine. It’s also got
the goodness of red wine splashed in, which, with the rose petal infusion, gives
it a rich blood red shade. You don’t need a license to be this provocative!
STOUT
CYNTHIA SYLVIA STOUT
Shampoo $7.95-24.95 for 100-500mL
They really make it with a well known brand of Irish stout and it really is
good for your hair! It cleans it, it makes it soft and smooth and it makes your
locks smell almost irresistible to anyone who has the slightest bit of Irishness
in them. Fresh lemon juice makes your hair shiny and lemon oil is very good for
keeping your scalp in top condition; they also add a lovely, light, fresh scent.
