Your first time at LUSH can be very overwhelming, with all the different products, it's hard to know exactly where to start.
Here I've compiled a list, from each of the cosmetic categories LUSH provides, that make a great starting point for your first time at LUSH.
After the list of cult favourites, I will also list some general tips about starting your collection.
All of these products work for all skin types, hair types, have top rated scents, and are perfect for everyday use.
Please note that this list was complied from reviews, and videos about experiencing LUSH for the first time, and I personally have not tried all of the products listed.
I did not list any soaps, or body butters since scent is highly subjective from person to person. I also did not list any face masks seeing as they can only be purchased in store, and it is hard to know if you really enjoy it without trying it out in store first.
The Cult Classics...
- Big Shampoo
Big Shampoo is one of the top rated products at LUSH. It is a fresh smelling shampoo that gives volume and shine to your hair. It will make the texture of your hair so much smoother, and softer than it was originally. No matter what your hair type, Big will add volume and body to your hair.
- American Cream Conditioner
This vanilla scented conditioner is a thinner conditioner compared to most, so thicker haired girls take note, and may not show the best results if your hair is excessively dry. Despite that, American Cream will leave your hair with moisture and shine, coupled with a scent that lasts all day long.
- Ocean Salt Scrub
Ocean Salt is the most popular scrub LUSH has created. It is useful for your face, and body, to remove excess dirt and dead skin cells from clogged pores. Even though it can be a bit too abrasive for some, this is an excellent exfoliator.

- Almond and Coconut Shower Smoothie
This shower smoothie is a great body wash if you want something to moisturize your skin. This shower smoothie is also one of the many products at LUSH that can have multiple uses. If desired, you could use it as a shaving cream due to its moisturizing properties. Your skin will be left completely moisturized and with a subtle, sweet scent.
- Flying Fox Shower Gel
Another great shower gel by LUSH is the Flying Fox which will leave your skin feeling very crisp, and clean. It has also been promoted to help sooth, and calm you when stressed.

- Sympathy for the Skin Moisturizer
This moisturizer will leave your skin greatly hydrated no matter what time of day you use it. The subtle scent of bananas won't linger for long, but your dry skin will be thanking you after using.
Starting out your Collection...
- Don't buy everything in sight.
Buy things that you like, not what others like. You don't want to go wasting your money on things you'll never use up.
- Store your products properly.
Most people say that they don't like LUSH because it's overpriced and runs out quickly. It doesn't have to as long as you store your products correctly.
- Stock up on bath products over anything else.
Don't waste your money on a pound of LUSH soap, or on a whole shipment of a moisturizer. LUSH products are designed to be long lasting. Besides bath products which have one, or two uses out of them, everything else will last your quite a while.
- If you're not sure of where to start, ask someone who works in LUSH.
All of the LUSH employees are very enthusiastic and knowledgable about the products. They will point you towards some great products, and even demonstrate some of them.
- Don't underestimate samples.
Samples are a great way to test out products. If you want to sample anything, simply ask someone who works there to cut you a sample size of a product.
