Big fan here!

My 7-year-old is nuts about the bath bombs and bubble bath. I like the solid shampoo and signature Karma perfume. (I've got both the spray and a small solid perfume tin.) nod

Lush stores make you hungry! They market everything to look like baked goods! lol

There's one on Queen Street West, just east of Spadina. (We visited that one so much they knew my daughter by name even before we moved to Canada. lol) There's one in Scarborough and there's a new smaller shop in Eaton Centre now... and I think there may be one nearer to you in either Oakville or Etobicoke... or maybe Mississauga? confuse

Reincarnate

I love the Rasul soap. I like their ethics too - I used to buy from them when they were mail order and called Cosmetics To Go. Back then, I used a lot of their honey products and soap bars.

Cool! I was thinking of trying the Henna too, but the only reason I haven't is because you shouldnt put any other (chemical) colour on top. You have to wait ages (till its grown out) before you can. But Henna leaves your hair beautiful. I've never tried the solid shampoos, but I might.

yeah i've heard of that, but i never deal with chemical dyes anyway (that's a lie, i had to bleach out some of my locks in order to get some colour, but that was the first and last time) and henna has worked wonders for me
eventually you should try it, and it smells so delicious cloud9

solid shampoos, even if they're not purchased at LUSH, are wonderful for your hair
i've found replacements for Reincarnate at a health food store for 2bucks a bar... they lather up really fast and they leave your hair smelling sooooo good, i washed my hair for about half an hour last night just enjoying it (i know i shouldn't but damn it was so wonderful)

i suggest giving that a try too, try out some cheaper bars at health food shops first, and then if you want to try out the more expensive LUSH ones, have at it - because they're super!

I still have a bath bomb somebody gave me a year ago and still smells strong, and scents my clothes.

Mach, it's so YOU biggrin ... they make the type of products you make at home. You don't need to buy from them, as you do it yourself, but you'd love the store, I'm sure. Oh, and hi woot!

Whenever I'm in the area, I look for you... which is utterly useless considering I've never ever met you. lol I think I expect Stanley Tucci to walk around a corner any minute... and that'll be you! nod

Yeah, I recall going in there with some chick I was dating. She was chattin' it up with some friend of hers who worked there.

Other than that, no - I usually go to Miss Fifi's Tranny Emporium for my perfuming needs.
