My mum discovered Lush a long time back when we were living in Australia, and their quality of products has consistently held up for a number of years now, so mum and I both consider ourselves "Lushies" for life. The plan was that she would shop for her deodorant at the Orlando Airport Lush store. But she discovered this store had been closed down and there was an Adidas store in its place now. Hence this necessitated a stop at a Lush store in Dublin to pick up their all natural charcoal deodorant. The location is great - just kitty corner from around Trinity College, and it was busy! However mum hardly had to wait more than a minute before a store employee come over to help her, and she guided us to the product, then escorted us to the counter and rang up the purchase. Loved that seamless service and it meant we were in and out super quickly! This store gets top marks for such excellent and efficient customer service and shopping experience!

I do like Lush, a lot!! OK, I have to be honest, I used to avoid this Lush... skip past as quick as I could because the scent was so potent. I just didn't understand how people could go in there and stay conscious. But murmurings from people about some of their products got me in there and now I am hooked! Shampoo, conditioners, bath bombs, soap, massage bars and now face cleansers. Hooked, line and sinker. Another thing I have to be honest about is the staff, at first I though they were completely over the top with enthusiasm... they probably still are, but after my latest visits here they don't seem as pushy or too crazy about the products. OK I know they are there to sell the stuff, but in the past I found it to be over the top.... Anyway, back to the present and I've had only pleasant experiences in there and found everything I have bought has done exactly what I wanted it to. Also, the scent doesn't even bother anymore as I pass, maybe they've turn the scent dial down a bit ;) read more

I love lush - it really is like every girls fantasy. You walk in and there are endless soaps, fizz bathbomb things, shower gels and lotions and potions to suit everyone. A word of warning - this stuff looks good enough to eat, and is designed to look like cakes and other yummy things. I am always pretty tempted to shove something in my mouth and I always have to remind myself that they are not for eating - just for cleaning and making you smell lovely. It's a great place for a gift too - particularly around Christmas time. They do great pre-made packages that are always wrapped up really prettily. read more

Don't tell anyone, but I'm kinda fond of taking a bath. Not that that isn't feminine enough, I'm also kinda fond of Lush's 'bath bombs'. Lush is the ultimate shop for bath stuff. It has massive slabs of soap that look like cheeses, but thankfully, they smell nothing like cheese. In facct, they smell gorgeous. Go get some, but if you're a bloke, I recommend you get the missus to do it for ya. read more

So I went into Lush yesterday in search of a birthday gift and the lovely Lisa made my day. I got loads of information, advice and recommendations on any product I looked at. I am allergic to two unusual ingredients found in many soap, lotion, etc. products and when I asked Lisa about the ingredients in question she double checked everything I wanted to buy and asked me to come back onto the shop with any feedback on the products so they could add the information to their system. Looking forward to giving my gift of loads of beautiful products and of course testing out the items I got for myself. Shop: well lit, clean, well designed, but small. Staff: all fantastic and well versed in what they are selling. Products: have not used as of yet, but will edit post once I have. Price: expensive Location: very central, across the road from Trinity College. Environmental impact: they use paper to wrap everything and paper bags as well as offering to email or print your receipt! Many other companies could learn a load from Lush! Stars: 4.5 read more

Lush make fresh, hand made soaps and cosmetics. The smell of this store is so yummy and powerful you can smell it from the street, although not many of my boyfriends seem to like the smell of this shop, so maybe it is just a girl thing. But this shop really is, well, LUSH! It is great to see ingredients and the fresh items that go into making what we use on our delicate skin. The packaging is also minimal or non existent so it is great for the environment too! My favourite is Buffy the Backside Slayer! A great soap bar exfoliator and one of their many cult products and best sellers! read more

Lush - Lush - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Dublin, D

This place is fantastic! I was recently here for a Yelp Event. The staff are more than accommodating, they're very knowledgable about all their products, they know how to give facials and massages (seriously!) and they're super friendly. I had a nosey through everything in the store, some of the scents weren't for me but that's okay because a lot of them were! I love citrus scents and they come by the bucketload. Everything is natural, not tested on animals (!) and absolutely beautiful on the skin. I felt like a new woman leaving the store. The prices range for inexpensive to expensive, depending on what you're after and how much you want. I tried the "gorgeous" face moisturizer after my facial and my skin felt awesome. It's one of the most expensive ones, no wonder! So if you're looking to really spoil yourself, give this one a go! I know I will be :) Thanks to the lovely ladies who treated us like royalty, I'll be back soon ;) read more

If you are heading towards Grafton Street, it's odd to walk by this store because your right nostril is giddy with a vibrant colourful rainbow of edible smells whilst your left nostril is assaulted with the noise and dirt that the rubbish machine sweeper is tossing up. A fitting paradox of Dublin I think. I got the cosmetic warrior mask because when a girl or boy is stressed their skin looks quite simply - carp... Well that's an obvious typo, crap I meant to say... Stress does not turn you into an ugly fish. Great selection of smelly stuff, I tend to veer towards the skin cleaning products so I'm not qualified enough to give an opinion about the moisturisers etc. read more

Totally addicted! Love their products, love the shop, great staff, great location. My cousin insisted I try one of their face masks, so I went and reluctantly dropped quite a bit of cash to try a mask and a moisturizer. I didn't expect to be blown away, but I absolutely was! The staff are very helpful and know the product so well, they can help you find what will work best for you. You can also try literally anything in the shop before you buy, which is a rare treat. I have been back several times to try new masks and cleansers, and no matter which staff member I speak to, they are always so friendly and helpful, without being pushy or trying to upsell you. Each time when I tell them about my skin type, I'm recommended the same products, so they clearly all know what works best. Literally my skin has never looked better! Yea it's a bit pricey but you can pronounce every ingredient, you know where it's coming from, what they support (like recycled packaging) and don't (animal testing). If you bring back 5 clean tubs you get a free mask, so I love that they support customer loyalty as well. I find that a little bit goes a long way, so they do actually last a bit longer than you might expect. I think everyone should try some of their products, if you ask for help you'll leave with something that will work for you, and you'll likely be hooked! read more

I really dislike the smell radiating from this shop, I genuinely find it offensive, but I decided to dismiss my olfactory prejudices and venture in for a gander one day. If there's one thing I hate, it's pushy sales people. The minute I stepped into the store I was asked whether I wanted help, which I have nothing against, as of course it is customary. Having politely declined, I thought that was that settled, but the sales assistant started to ask me about my skin routine etc, and of course, being Irish, I gave in and started to indulge her. Unfortunately for the sales assistant, I had previously read up on the type of range from Lush that would suit my skin, and asking her for a second opinion, she didn't appear to know which ranges suited which skin types. Not only was a given a product for normal skin, but I was escorted to the counter, and feeling sorry for the poor girl, I bought something I didn't even want. Having said that I have returned, and God forgive me, have just taken to completely ignoring the sales assistants, as if they were chuggers on the street. Good products, but they need to tone down the sales pitches. read more

There's something so delightful about the words "bath" and "bomb" combined. When I came in here the other week the staff were wearing towels and trying out products on themselves (either that or she reeaaly couldn't figure out what to wear that morning), always nice to people having a bit of a giggle, but what is results in is the staff being knowledgeable from first hand experience and are able to suggest the best products for all different types of skin. All of their products are organic with no chemicals and not tested on animals (only the towel wearing staff in the shops) and they even have a sticker with the person who made the product. Also a bonus for all the Lush regulars out there is that when you return 5 empty pots, they give you a free face mask so they can recycle the old pots. Now that I sound like a tree warrior (save our CO2 gulping friends!!!)on to the greedy (best) bit. I was delighted that when I spent over €25 (I splurge every few months not weekly so that sounds worse than it is for all you men rolling your eyes out there...) I got a free goodie bag packed with a bath bomb, olive scented shower gel, and two massage bars. All the goodie bags are randomly packed (which I love, tell me there is a box that I can't open and I will rip it to shreds, it's an adventure people!!) With something for all skins types and an excuse to have a giant bubble bath (bath bombs away!!) I always look forward to spending my moo-lah in here. read more

Got some Lush products for the first time as a birthday present and absolutely loved them, was surprised how well they worked and how good the products, especially the Buffy body butter, made my skin feel. I decided to venture into the shop to see what else they had and was greeted by really friendly sales people. At first I declined any help because I hadn't really intended on buying anything, I was just in for a look, but after the third query from a sales person I relented and asked if they had any eye creams. I was shown Enchanted Eye Cream, given a demo of the product and told exactly what the ingredients did for me. Since the sales person was so nice and knowledgeable I decided to buy it and am now a converted Lushie! read more

Let me state from the get-go that I'm a Lushie. I keep finding more and more of their products that I can't survive without once I know they exist. It's gotten so bad that my BF covers my eyes every time we walk by so I'm only tempted by the smell, not the sight. The employees here are really friendly, the atmosphere is bright and cheery, and you'll surely find an aromatic (and possibly moisturizing, buffing, bubbling, masked, fizzing, lathering, massaging, or powdery) cure for what ails you. You'll be taken care of and given demos by enthusiastic assistants who really do know the products, their ingredients, and skin- and soul-benefiting properties of those ingredients inside and out. Some types will feel more comfortable than others in Lush- it's hands-on and it's pungent, not to mention a bit cozy when it fills up. Personally, I love it. So much so, in fact, that a Lush bath is the reward for any goal I set! Now to lose that extra kilo... Also if you send in a photo or drawing of you using or paying tribute to Lush products and they publish in it the weekly email newsletter, they mail you a gift box full of seven famous products. Your humble reviewer is a true success story. You can't beat THAT with a stick! read more

The One shop that i cant survive without it is Lush. I have been using their products for years now and i never had any side effects. I love the fact that their products are 100% vegetarian and they have some vegan stuff. They also fonts buy from companies that carry out or fund any animal testing. Plus, they have this 'Charity Pot' thing, a hand and body lotion that its profits goes to charitable organisations like human rights, environmental and of course animal welfare. Another thing, they offer you a free face mask for every 5 empty black (lush) pots you bring to recycle. The products that got me crazy are: their bath bombs, coffee scrub, rose mask and their hair masks. read more

I love Lush, so I've been to my fair share of stores. While the products were of the high quality I am used to... the customer service was not really of the same quality. In fact, I was shocked in reading the reviews that people felt they were being harassed by the staff because I could barely get a look from any of the staff! It wasn't until I began messing with displays (NOTE: Having worked in retail, if you want to get the attention of the staff, mess with displays and things that shouldn't be messed with... they'll be on you like a fat kid on cake) that one staff member left her conversation about music videos by Britney Spears to offer me help. I couldn't remember which face mask it was that I had a sample of and purchased, so I thought she could help. She suggested one mask so I asked what the smallest size was. It was a sizeable pot, so I asked how long it would last if I didn't refrigerate it right away. She said a day... that was a problem because there was no refrigerator in my hotel room, no ledge I could stick it on outside of my window, and we would be travelling all day the next day. When I told her that, she backtracked a bit and kept saying it might last a little longer than a day. And that's where the help ended. So I grabbed a pot of a face mask I found that did not have to be refrigerated, a bubble bath bomb, and took off for the till. Here, the staff were busy playing with glitter, which of course, ended up all over any customer trying to pay for their items. It took awhile for one of the three glitter girls to acknowledge me. One of the reviewers said that the staff are almost American... being American... they weren't. Far from it. In fact I would say closer to British because I got the feeling that I was cramping their party by wanting to purchase some items. My bad, I thought this was a store. read more

Bought a lip scrub here on Monday. Store assistant was really helpful. He Demonstrated how to use it and was really knowledgeable. Love the product. read more

Lush - Smooth lips and tastes good! - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Dublin, D

Most women would consider a trip to Lush a heavenly experience. Name me one girl who doesn't like looking (and smelling) beauty products. Lush is sensory overload. Besides the powerful smells that you can detect from down the street, your eyes are treated to all the colours of the rainbow. My absolute favourite thing about this shop are the soaps and bath bombs in the front. The soaps come in big long rectangles and the workers cut bars for you on the spot. Sometimes, the people who work here will give you a demonstration of how the bath bombs work. You can watch them drop the bomb in the water and all the colours (and sparkles) explode. Great fun! Another product that deserves to be mentioned is the massage bar. It comes in different scents, but my favourite it the white and dark chocolate heart. My only criticism of Lush is that its products are too potent. People with sensitive skin need mild cleansers and lotions, something that Lush needs to work on. read more

Lush is awash with untreated, organic cosmetics that are as unique in visual, smell and content as the store is in being one of only few outlets who are firmly committed to a policy which precludes testing its products and ingredients on animals. This is elucidated by the spectacle of unique bath bombs, bubble bar slices and luxury bath melts cramming the shelves. Lush pride themselves on making effective and fresh cosmetics by hand. The fusion of fruity as well as exciting smells within the store are an upshot of the unique way Lush sources their ingredients from all around the world. The Lush aroma is instantly recognizable. Whether you like it or not you will be redolent of the most distinctive scents upon exiting the store. This however bodes well for the sustainability of the products. For example, every time I apply the body lotion entitled 'Potion' I am complimented as to how pleasing the smell is. This too is true of the prevalent scent of jasmine mixed with greek honey and ylang ylang oil that people can sense after I use Lush's 'Flying Fox' shower gel. It says a lot when the aroma from something as usually transitory as shower gel can be detected. My favourite shampoo, 'Cynthia Sylvia Stout' is uniquely made with stout beer - again more unpredictable ingredients used to truly enliven your beauty regime and be caring to your body. Stout contains protein and gives my hair great weight, silkiness and a shiny finish. This shampoo uniquely radiates the smell of a stimulating brandy, stout and lemon cocktail, so good I could very nearly guzzle it. The staff within the Grafton Street branch are always extraordinarily helpful and offer very interesting information about each product. The level to which they are well informed in relation to every product is very notable and uncommon within shops these days. This factor is evermore appreciated in relation to cosmetics, as the significance surrounding purchasing the correct item is intensified when it concerns your own skin. The staff at Grafton Street are always willing to demonstrate products within one of the numerous sinks so as to present the customer with a comprehensive display of the workings of the product. Customer service that is methodical without being boring in conjunction with stirring, distinctive and natural products makes Lush an innovative store selling quality products we should all believe in. read more

Great staff and lovely store. I was surprised to see a lot of Christmas stock but I was able to get a great deal with them being 50 per cent off. read more

I like Lush products for their smell, and the lovely aroma that radiates from this shop never fails to draw me in whenever I walk past. The body lotions are my favourite thing here, and the face masks are divine. You can get a free one if you trade in 5 black pots which is always something I take advantage off. Another one of my favourite products are the facial scrubs here, in particular "Angels on Bare Skin" and "Herbalism". They smell great and are really effective. However, I do find some of their lotions and creams quite greasy and heavy though, but they double up as a "perfume" since whenever I use them, people ask what perfume I use, saying it smells nice. The staff are super friendly, but I find them a bit pushy in trying to get you to buy something, and will attempt to help and demonstrate anything you lay your eyes on. But the service in general is great, and they give good advice if you need it. read more

I cannot begin to describe the love I have for this shop! Firstly the smell is just wow! Secondly the products are outstanding ranging from bath bombs to dry shampoo and I especially love the Lush Boxing Day Sales this store always has Xmas stock left so there's plenty and overall I love Lush. I am a Lushie. read more

Lush - My Lush Boxing Day Haul - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Dublin, D

I love lush. Products mostly smell great to me and really do improve my skin! Best part of lush here? Most of the items I use are much cheaper than the US! If you're traveling from the states, DO stock up here (as long as it's cheaper, some products are NOT), and of course ask for the tax free receipt if you're not from another European country. Aside from that, staff are nice and knowledgable about their products. Had a good experience there and would go back. In fact, I might before I have to leave the country! read more

If I could shop wherever I liked, this place would wipe me out fairly quickly...but I'd smell damn nice 'til I did! The next generation of the Body Shop genre, it's got everything a girl could ever want to make herself feel pampered (and guys, here's a hint - it's a fab place to buy a gift for any female, mother, sister, girlfriend, aunt, granny...you'll be in the good books and it won't break the bank) The fact that everything's handmade gives it a lovely homey feel, and the rough-hewn state of much of the merchandise adds to the allure. The smell in there is absolutely divine, and impossible to describe so I'm not even going to try, just take my word for it or go see for yourself! Quick note on the staff - amazing! So helpful and informative and chatty! read more

I LOVE Lush. To be honest a lot of the products kind of intimidated me because I had the "what the hell do I do with this" fear. Not anymore. I recently went to a Yelp event here and learned so much about the products and their various uses. I was always a fan but stuck to the bathbomb section, however will most definitely be extending my lush shopping list now. We got a goodie bag at the end of the night which included some Tooth tabs which you use instead of toothpaste and I have been totally converted. Everything is natural and absolutely beautiful on the skin. My skin felt unreal after the lush facials we had. (another investment I shall make) Thanks to all the lovely knowledgeable staff and Yelp for a wonderful relaxing night. read more

You can smell the lush products before you even go into the shop, and the smells are delicious! They have a variey of funky named soaps, bath melts, bath bombs, shampoos, bath gels, hair and face masks, and gift sets. The staff are really friendly and very helpful. If you need to get a present for someone they will give you helpful tips on the right thing to get. read more

Love this place. First went in to buy my mam a birthday present, got great help and the mammy loved it. Even better, I got a free sample of shaving cream (Prince) at the till and it was enough to make me say g'bye to Gilette forever. Other faves include Cosmetic lad and the solid shampoo bars. Bit steep, but the stuff's great and the staff really know what they're talking about. That kind of customer service is worth paying for, you don't get it much in Ireland. Thumbs up. read more

I really like some of Lush's products... I love the quirky names and the gorgeous smell that hits you once you turn the corner at Trinity. I'm a big fan of their bath bombs and their massage bars... Seriously, I don't even bother with perfume on days that I use their Each Peach bar after the shower, it's so fragrant that it lasts almost the entire day. But I just wish that the staff would just GET DOWN OFF ME!! Seriously, I don't need you jumping all over me as soon as I stop beside one of the products, or listening in on my conversations and butting in and/or generally getting in my aura with fakey friendly pushiness! Yes, I know you're cool and cute and you've got a cool job and you love the products etc, but still!!!! Grrrrrrr! To this end, I tend to run in the door, grab what it is I'm looking for and zoom straight to the checkout, which is a shame, because I'm sure I'm missing out on some new goodies. Helpful is good, over-eager and pushy is a bit intimidating :o( read more

Lush is my ultimate love!! I used to go to the Aventura Mall branch in Miami obsessively just to smell everything. Aesthetically pleasing as well as friendly to your skin, all their products are simply divine. This particular store is great! Everyone is extremely friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about each and every product. One friendly lady (Ciara I believe?? Sorry if I misspelled your name!) even joked that after working for Lush, you become a human air freshener! The staff is fully able to cater to your specific needs and requests. Being in this store is a lovely experience, and I plan on becoming a devoted customer. read more

Was in today and dealt with the most kind staff members ever! We went in to buy a few bath bombs (which we love) and as my 5 year old daughter was reaching for one, she knocked a glass cup on the floor and it shattered. She started crying, bug the staff immediately came over and told her not to worry about it. She was so upset, but the girl working there told her 'Don't worry, I have broken them before too! It's no problem.' She really made my daughter feel as ease and was so kind to her. Both the staff were so kind to her and I was really so grateful! To top it off, the bath bombs were fantastic! Thank you so much! read more

Lush is located across from Trinity College and specializes in handmade, organic, delightful toiletries. This is the type of place where you prepare to get an instant headache when you walk in, from the mixture of aromas, but you shake it off and head in anyway - only to be pleasantly surprised that you're not gasping for air but rather basking in the scents surrounding you. I love heading to Lush for a beautiful, handmade, organic treat. I'm a huge fan of making those gift baskets, filling them with special treasures, and the soaps and facemasks at Lush are perfect fillers. read more

Amazing staff, products and ethos. They do so much for every cause I stand for! Bravo.

Lush is one of Dublin's distinctive smells. You can't help but stop to savor the sweet, fruity fragrances, which infiltrate the busy junction between Grafton Street and College Green. The shop itself is a colourful arrangement of soaps and fragranced toiletries, stacked high and gleefully presented in gift boxes. All hand made from animal friendly organic products, they make wonderful gifts for the ethically conscious. Misanthropists should be wary of the staff, who are suspiciously overzealous in their happy helpfulness and display a worryingly genuine joy for their minimum wage work. read more

Great selection of products and great customer service from staff. Had a full skincare consultation and the staff were willing to take the time to ask questions, recommend the right products, try them out on my hand etc. even though the store was busy. They did try to sell different items but were never really pushy and gave me some samples. They had really in depth knowledge of all the ingredients and explained exactly what everything did for my skin. The shop itself was quite fun - big colourful displays of bath bombs, buzzing music and demonstrations of bath bombs with a little crowd of kids gathered around. read more

If you are in need of a bit of pampering this is the place. Gorgeous products and they smell devine. Love the honey shampoo and conditioner.

Lush is one of the best places ever, wherever I am I will visit the local lush shop. The staff in Grafton is probably one of the friendliest, always help and recommend the best products, and tell you even if you are not committing to buying their products. They also remember everyone who goes there, well at least me! :) read more

Earlier today I visited this shop with a friend and had the most amazing lush experience I have ever had. I'm currently visiting Ireland from the United States and as a long time lushie I couldn't help myself from stopping in a store while on my trip. From the moment I entered the store I was greeted kindly by the staff and after looking around for a bit a lovely boy by the name of Sam began showing us items exclusive to UK Lush stores that we would not find back home in the US. We spent nearly two hours sampling various perfumes and lotions while also learning about their origins with Sam. At one point I also mentioned that I was looking to buy a friend back home a gift that was exclusive to the UK stores but I was unsure what she would like. I told him her favorite lush scents and ended up getting nearly the entire staff involved in trying to figure out the perfect gift for her! In the end I ended up purchasing over 10 items and while attempting to pay I began having issues with my credit card (I forgot to call my card company to warn them I would be traveling overseas) However everyone was patient and understanding while I called the company to figure everything out. Overall I had a wonderful experience and would definitely make sure to stop by again if I ever visit the area in the future. read more

Lush - One of the many displays in the shop - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Dublin, D

We've all been wooed by the smelly, seemingly luxury nature of happy go lucky Lush. We've all, similarly, gone through that awful awakening where we see that it all basically smells the same (nauseatingly, in fact), does terrible things to your skin by leaving thin layers of unrefined lotus oil and such all over you that stay days after you've left the shower, that the hair products are unusable in their causing an extremely unnatural amount of dandruff, and that the staff are actually hand picked for their irony-free quirkiess and indominatable positive attitude. That said, its difficult to come back and remember what we liked about it in the first place. Lets face it, its not real soap/'product' and shouldnt be treated as so unless you have no respect for your skin's natural oils, but it still has a few gems that leave you smelling bountiful, and if you're into baths i mean, it's mecca. Not to mention that Buffy the 'backsde slayer' exfoliator (damn right). Don't verbally engage yourself with the staff - it just encourages them. read more

quickly becoming my fav all round beauty shop. It's a very unique concept. I'm not really keen on the hair products...they do nothing for my afro hair but the rest of the products are AMAZING!! The girls and guys in store are lovely and really helpful! they really know their stuff.! Did I mention the store smells divine! read more

I am a big big fan of lush products and generally always have a good experience visiting. Today was the exception. I found the staff to be extremely rude! It was my first time at the Grafton Street branch. I knew exactly what I needed so I picked it up and went to queue. I didn't see where the queue started or ended (it was very crammed all round) so I stood behind the person who was just before me at the till. I stood there through the entire transaction before me only to be shouted at when it came to my turn. This was done by not one, but two of the staff member, one who seemed to be the manager. They shouted very loudly and made sniggering remarks. This made me feel extremely stupid and drew a lot of unwanted attention. I went and queued anyway, only to observe the same treatment being given to another confused customer minutes after it happened to me. Ridiculous behaviour. Horrible experience all round! I won't be buying there again. read more
