Lush on the cheap.

Anyone interested in buying some Lush shampoo and conditioner?

I have one 3.3 ounce bottle of Rehab liquid shampoo and one 3.3 ounce bottle of Coolaulin liquid conditioner that I'd like to sell. I used each of them once (a very small dab on medium length hair). I'd rather hand deliver than mail, which is why I'm posting here and not [livejournal.com profile] lush_swaps . The Rehab is best if used by 02/11/11 and the Coolaulin is best before 11/02/10. I bought both on Friday and there's nothing wrong with them - I had a hairdressing appointment on Saturday morning and I'm going to go a different route for repairing my hair.

The original price for the Rehab on the website is $12.45 and the original price for the Coolaulin is $8.75.  Since they're open, I'd be OK with selling both for together for $12. I'd be willing to sell separately, if necessary, for a fair price (although I think they work pretty well together - they're both for helping processed hair). Say $8 for the Rehab, and $5 for the Coolaulin. Preference will go to anyone willing to buy them together since I am carless.

And yes, to those unfamiliar with Lush products, they are super expensive which is why I'm even bothering to try and resell shampoo/conditioner =)

Not trying to speak for the OP, but almost all of Lush's liquid shampoos and conditioners contain sodium laureth/lauryl sulfate (SLS), which is notorious for stripping color and everything else out of hair and leaving it pretty dried out. OP mentioned dyeing her hair - this would explain it.

(I looove Lush stuff so much so that I wrote a letter to the company asking if they'll ever roll out an SLS-free line, because it absolutely kills my hair, but no response. Sadface.)
