Check out my goodies my sister got me from LUSH.  If you have been following the blog, you know I love LUSH.
It’s a Canadian based cosmetic store that has branched off to all parts of the world.  The make fresh handmade cosmetics.   Everything from bubble bath to facial creams and lots of other fun smelly good stuff. 
They have many stores across the U.S., but seem to be pretty spread out.  The nearest one to me is about 2 hours away,sad face.

This body cream is wonderful. It’s very smooth and has a nice light fresh scent.  It’s a little pricey so I have used it very sparingly. 
The second pic is a cartoon sticker of the person who handmade the cream along with expiration date. Hey Nic!
  All their products are freshly made and expire after sometime.  I’m sure I will use this goodness up before the expo date.  :)

Review:  Believe it or not this is my very first time trying out Miss Jessie's anything.  I am a little disappointed with the product.  It seems a little heavy in my hair.  I will see how it feels in a couple of days from now.  The smell is great and light.  The overall packaging of the product is also presented well.  It does give my curls some edge and more definition. 

 

I think my overall thumbs down is the thickness.  I wish it was lighter.  I will continue to use it very sparingly though.  A little bit goes a long way. 

 

As I have mentioned eariler, I will do a continued review in the days to come on this product to see how my hair does with it.
