Lush is such a yummy shop... I always know about 5 minutes beforehand that I'm approaching their store. Value is not quite what I wish it was. One soap cost me $17 (!) But it was delicious. Sadly, they only pay their employees minimum wage ($16 per hour) or about $32K for full time.

The reason I went to LUSH was because I pass it everyday to go to work, and wanted to get a special present for a friend.Even outside the LUSH store, you can smell a pleasant mixture of aromas wafting over to you. However, the smell, when inside the store, was quite overpowering. When getting out of the shop, I felt a bit faint after-wards. However, the products, mainly soaps and fragrances were of, on appearance, of great quality, but they were very expensive. The shop was also in a odd location and the shop space was too small to fit more than 5 people. Overall, it was a good experience going, but not worth the money spent. But, it is a great shop in a niche market.

Approximate cost: $15
