washday greens

my very first introduction to lush & all its wonderful goodness was washday greens shampoo. my lovely friend & fellow lushie amy sent me a few odds & ends to get me started. i was hooked from the first sniff!

i love the minty rush you get when you open this. it just kinda hits you in the face in a good way. i am not a morning person and this is a great way to get me going. the combo of spearmint & peppermint oils will liven you right up, the chlorophyll helps with the oiliness and gives it the lovely green color while the bay leaf works as a toner for your scalp.

washday greens does a bang up job if you have fine, greasy or fly away hair. my hair has a lot more bounce and it doesn't get oily as quickly. i also love how the smell lingers in the bathroom making it smell like a minty forest post shower.

the only con i have with this shampoo is the runny factor! i've noticed most lush shower gels/shampoos are either funky & chunky or super runny. some of them you can shake & it does help but this was just ran everywhere, which with the price you pay wasting even a tiny drop is not an option! but on the plus side a little bit really does go a long way.

if you are unsure if you would like to smell like a stick of gum i would recommend starting out with the smaller bottle. if its not something you like, pass it on to somebody else & expose them to the wonderfulness known as lush!
