Deal on vegan bodycare stuff: Lush is having a buy one get one sale on gift boxes,

[LeftyMom]

and Christmas-themed soaps and bath bombs are buy one get two free. The nice thing is that once you get the stuff out of the package, almost none of the things in the gift boxes are Christmas-y scents, so I bought a bunch to repackage for spring birthdays or for my own use. I like them all really, except the Snow Fairy scent, which IMO smells like cotton candy and is just sickly sweet.

All the vegan items say "vegan" or have a green V on the tags. The rest of the stuff is vegetarian and not animal tested, but may contain honey, milk, lanolin, etc.

Anywho, sale here: http://www.lushusa.com/shop/boxingday/

Hope that helps somebody else save a buck or two. I went to the local store and got a grocery-bag sized haul of stuff for $60, which I'm pretty f'n happy about.

1. Never heard of this store, but checked in the store locator

and found that there is one not too far from my house. I will have to pay it a visit.

2. Don't forget, buying Lush helps Sea Shepherd!

3. I think that was just the Charity Pot last year and a short-term special soap or something.

They rotate around what charity that particular hand cream's proceeds go to all the time- I believe it's currently an anti-deforestation group.

4. I think they're still involved in their anti shark finning campaign.
