free stuff rocks
So here are the products I got from the Lucky Magazine contest I won. Not a lot of stuff, but hey – it was free! High five!
I know I’ve mentioned before that I am 100% devoted to my Lush products, so it is hardly worth the effort of trying anything new, but there are a few things I like about this line. All of the packaging is 100% post-consumer waste, and the paper boxes are even infused with seeds, so you can plant the box and get an herb garden! I think this is a wonderful idea, and I fully intend to plant this cardboard box..somewhere at your house, probably.

Also, the product is pretty gentle on my (ultra-sensitive) skin, and based on the ingredient list, is probably edible as well. However, I tend to question anything that lists Acai berry as an active ingredient. My experience with those lousy acai berry scammers has left a foul taste in my mouth for anyone who has jumped on this snake-oil bandwagon.
Other than the acai bias, my only real complaint is that this mask, pictured here, smells really organic, and by smells, I mean reeks, and by organic I mean like compost.

Oh, and my other complaint is that now that I’ve won this contest, I can’t enter another one for like 6 months, so there goes my chance at that $10,000 Shopbop gift card. Dammit.
