Lushing into it.

Every time I walk by the Lush store, I get a migraine.

Never one for perfumes or scented products, the shop was potpourri hell, only 20 times worst.

I would sidle up to the opposite wall and quicken my pace, huddled with my nose safely buried in my probably bacteria infested sleeve.

And then Buffy the Backside slayer came along.

I walked in, came out of the shop AUD$26 poorer but emerged from the shower as Kristin Kreuk (Because Buffy is life changing).

While Buffy, big or small, might not look very sexy and in fact resembles a chunk of margarine, it smells beautiful (contains Cocoa and Shea Butter, Lavender and Lemon Oil among other things), moisturises as it should, makes my scaly skin baby soft, and is fussy boyfriend approved.


It takes a bit of figuring out how best to use Buffy though: should I hold it like a rock that I would use to smash someone on the head with, or should I slice it like ham? I did the former and it worked out fine.

Lush website says 90g small Buffy (AUD$15.95) should last two to three showers, which means its about five bucks per use, which is really quite steep. I would suggest to keep it somewhere dry, wet yourself, grab Buffy, give your bits a scrub then keep it out of water's way. That way, you don't lose precious Buffy to the evil drain lord.

Buffy contains ground rice, almonds and aduki beans and is really quite rough, which I love because I like the idea that bumps and dead skin cells are being scraped away. This however might not suit those who're just looking for a tickle.

All in all, I feel pretty, oh so pretty, I feel pretty, and witty, and gay! And I pity, anybody who isn't me today!
