Lush Beauty Products Contest Giveaway - New Toner Tabs for Smooth Skin
By MudslideMama | October 5, 2008
LUSH’s philosophy has always been based on ethics and having the least amount of impact on the environment while still producing effective beauty products. This Traveling Mamas contest giveaway is for the beauty company’s newest product line, Toner Tabs. These are solid tablets of vitamin rich essential oils and hydrating fluids to tone our weary faces.
But what are these Lush tablets, exactly? Well, they’re exactly what they sound like; concentrated little “pills,”
if you will, that you drop into a bowl of hot water. Then you lean over the bowl (preferable with a towel over our head, but that makes it hard to read a book at the same time) and enjoy. The steam hydrates and revives your face. The Tea Tree Toner Tab helps clear spots and blemishes, while aloe vera powder calms, softens, and refreshes the skin. This is great for teenagers’ hormonally traumatized faces. The Vitamin C Toner Tab is better for us older types out there; the restorative, skin-softening rose oil, and anti-oxident rich vitamin C oil does away with some free radicals aging our skin. The Vitamin E Toner Tab is good for all skin types, from teen to tired old mom (that’d be me, by the way). Strongly scented like lavender, this is a terrific way to keep all of our faces balanced and toned. The essential oils of neroli and geranium, along with lavender, compliment the anti-oxident power of vitamin E. I like to relax in a steam bath, and these toner tabs are essentially steam baths for our faces.
Five of each Lush Toner Tab - Tea Tree, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E - will go to one lucky winner. This contest
giveaway is easy as pie to enter: Simply leave a comment below describing (briefly) a day you could have really used a relaxing steam bath. Or a clear complexion. Either one; and in the winning post, I’ll describe a day my face turned against me as well. US residents only, please: It’s a shipping costs thing. The winner is chosen by a random number generator. Contest is open until 6:00 AM PST, Tuesday October 14.

Today is one of those days that a relaxing steam bath would be great- I’m not feeling well and it would be a great pick me up. Thanks!

I think it was the day that my oldest broke up with her boyfriend after 3 1/2 years. Everyone thought they would get married and it was absolutely devastating. I cried for days on end. I seriously could have used a steam bath to relax me then. (Thankfully she was right about it all and she’s much happier.)
October 5th, 2008 at
After I took the GRE while fighting a high fever. I almost cried during the exam. While I managed to increase my score by 50 points, I wanted to fall down afterwards.
October 5th, 2008 at
Yesterday. We had tons to do and everything seemed to be going wrong. I could really have used a steam bath then.
October 5th, 2008 at
Something current, on my birthday everything that could went wrong! So, I was just ready to go to bed by the end of the night

I will be flying to see my in-laws tomorrow and talk about stress! I’m trying to relax and stay positive, but there’s always something…Maybe thats why we haven’t been back there in a year and half! Thanks!
October 5th, 2008 at
This would be a great way to treat myself after passing one of my college classes! The last one was tough and I could have used the relaxation.

when the hurricans hit- we are not in texas but in the path and lost power for a day- our roof had some minor damage- it was a bad day but I knew others had it far worse
October 5th, 2008 at
Being a woman - daughter, wife, mother, mother-in-law, ex mother-in-law, grandmother - sometimes all of the above get in the way of each other and I wonder how we can possible juggle our lives. One horrible day recently, I had my Dad (94) in the emergency room and my husband in the hospital, dauther at the vet with her very ill dog and grandaughter - well - just being a girl. I really could have used a relaxing soak!
October 5th, 2008 at
every day, you know what they say - every days a holiday and every meals a feast

The first day I had to care for my baby boy, who I am nursing, and babysit my new granddaughter at the same time.
October 5th, 2008 at
Every weekend. It’s odd, I know, but I’ve always thought of Mondays and the return to the work week as relaxing compared to weekend responsibilities.
October 6th, 2008 at
A steam bath would have been great last week when I was stressed out. In fact, it would help right now.
October 6th, 2008 at
I am a mom of 2 boys and a CPA that works from home. I need to destress.
October 6th, 2008 at
I always love a nice bath but when I get out of the hospital is the time I could use this the most.
October 6th, 2008 at
Everyday I could use a relaxing steam bath as I have constant back pain and a hot bath does wonders although who has the time!
October 6th, 2008 at
After volunteering the entire weekend for the special olympics. It’s fun and rewarding but exhausting!
October 6th, 2008 at
Mondays are always stressful. My kids are always nuts on Mondays.
October 6th, 2008 at

October 6th, 2008 at
The day it started pouring as I drove my Vespa home. The temperature dropped about 10 degrees and I was completely soaked through!
October 6th, 2008 at
Not long ago, my teething baby was screaming and flopping around and hit her gums on a hard floor. Blood went everywhere. We were all screaming and trying to stop the bleeding.It was minor and required no stitches ,but she screamed for hours, none the less. I could have used a bath treatment at the end of that day!
October 6th, 2008 at
Today is definitely 1 of those days! Looking forward to a nice hot bath. Getting discouraged looking for job and health insurance and could really use a pick-me-up!
October 6th, 2008 at
The day I started my new job
October 6th, 2008 at
I would say the day my daughter started Kindergarten this year. I was a wreck! I cried all day and even as I went to pick her up after school. She is my only child and I was just so worried about her all day. Being a SAHM for 5 years didn’t help. I was never away from her. So I could have definitely used a nice steam that day after all the stress.
Thanks for the contest.
October 6th, 2008 at
Today! I have a sick baby and was up a lot last night trying to keep him calm and comfortable. A nap and a bath sound fabulous!
October 6th, 2008 at
Yesterday was very stressful and I could have really used a relaxing steam bath, it would have helped.

After spending a week moving myself and helping my mom move.
October 6th, 2008 at
I could use one right about now, actually. I spent the weekend outside and used sunscreen, and now my skin has completely turned against me. It’s pretty bad looking.
October 6th, 2008 at
When my grandma passed away, my mother was a mess and just fell apart. Someone had to organize the funeral, notify family and friends, talk to the florist, and handle the obituary. I took on all of these responsibilities so my mother could simply mourn her loss.. but in doing so I neglected to allow myself time to mourn. Once it was all over, I sank in my shower and finally mourned my loss as well. Could have really used a comforting bath then!

My daughter and I make Wire Wrapped Jewelry which we sell at craft faires and online. On Labour Day we were doing a 4 day show. On Friday it was very windy which ment that we had to take down all of our booth decorations because they kept blowing away. On Saturday the wind got worse 30 mph with gusts of 50mph. So we had to take down all of the display stands and just lay the Jewelry flat on the table. On Sunday it was so windy 40 to 50 mph and gusts in the 60’s. We watched 4 canopies get completely destroyed. We spent 4 hours just trying to tie the booth to the ground so it didn’t blow away. Finally we decided it was safe to put out the Jewelry if we pinned it all down to the table. I have one 40lb acrylic ring case that I thought for sure would be safe. It wasn’t 10 minutes later when a gust of wind hit that completely trashed everything. The acrylic case flew off the table and went crashing to the ground about 6 feet away. All the Jewelry went flying too. All I could do was the duck under a table and cover my face. So we finally gave up and threw everything in the truck and went home. I really could have used and nice relaxing soak. My face was so wind burnt and dirty, my nerves were fried. The next morning I woke to nice case of acne and I’m over 50. What a weekend.

I could use a relaxing bath after anytime I travel long distance with the dogs. I’m usually exhausted, covered in dog drool and other unpleasant things and completely ready to throttle my husband.

It’s a tossup- when I took the SAT’s on the same day as my first day of Rennaissance Festival (I was in it) which also happened to be Prom…hello, stress acne!
Or when my dad was hospitalized in a coma and I cried for 4 days straight until he came out of it. Hello, eyes-swollen-shut!

October 6th, 2008 at
I could have used a nice, relaxing bath any of the days that I lived with an insane roommate last year. Thank god I had my own bathroom.. my little sanctuary, lol. It let me get away from being yelled at about doing the dishes, turning the lights out, cleaning up the TINIEST messes while she had huge ones, etc. I could have especially used one the night she assault me. :/
October 7th, 2008 at
I could have used a nice bath the day I had my accident. I hit a guard rail head on at 70mph. Luckily I walked out without a scratch but was really shaken up.

October 8th, 2008 at
Perhaps right after our house caught on fire?
October 8th, 2008 at
One week ago today I could have used it. My oldest daughter was in labor with her first child and because she lives in another country, I could not be there to give her some support. So I walked my own floor, pacing and pacing for hours between the first “I’m in labor” call to the “we have a GIRL!” call.
October 8th, 2008 at
Last week I was having a particularly hectic day. At 6am I was called in to suibstitute first grade. I then went directly to my afterschool job where along with my regular group activity I was asked to get seven 2nd and 3rd graders together to perform a play for a business breakfast later in the week. As I was preparing a fingerpaint rotation for my group I shook up the black paint and it exploded all over my shirt, neck, hair and the sidewalk.
I had to scrub it off the sidewalk so the janitor wouldn’t have an aneurysm, then finish my group and clean the bathrooms because the students got fingerpaints everywhere.
After work I was ready for a good long soak…but my new place has no tub
So I plugged the drain and dropped a bath bomb on the shower floor.
October 8th, 2008 at
The moment when my oldest son went into the hospital with a 106 fever… it was horrible.. I so needed alot that day
Thank you for the chance to win this giveaway!

October 9th, 2008 at
I saw 3 of my highschool friends for the first time since highschool last week….and got 3 huge zits 2 days before. I really could have used clear skin that day, instead I looked like I was still in highschool, pizza face and all
October 9th, 2008 at
I tend to break out when i am stressed. When you work and go to school full time, it is nice to have something to pamper yourself with. This product would definitely serve the purpose!
October 9th, 2008 at
Over the summer when my parents were visiting and their dog suddenly went downhill, had an “episode” which was heartbreaking to see my mom fall apart, and then my husband and my dad took her to the er vet and had to have her put to sleep.
October 9th, 2008 at
I could use this any day of the week; but especially after a long week of work on a Friday night
October 9th, 2008 at
I could have really used a relaxing steam bath the day my 7 year old son took a Sharpie Green Marker and started drawing on our off white living room carpeting! This happened about a month ago and I thought I was going to explode! He drew squiggles all over the center of the room! Okay, you are going to ask where I was while this was going on, I was changing my daughters diaper and putting her down for a nap! It happened in all of 5 minutes, pinky swear!! Of course I didn’t even yell at my son, but sternly let him know he was a bad, bad little boy! Carpet cleaners came the following week!! I need me some luxurious LUSH!!
October 9th, 2008 at
I could use this anytime but especially right now as I try to rejoin the job force
October 9th, 2008 at
any day! today especially, since i’m recovering from the flu
October 9th, 2008 at
Tea Tree is miracle cure.
October 9th, 2008 at
A lovely steambath would be so welcome after a stressful day at work! How nice would it be to just sit back, relax, and melt for just a little bit? Ah Heaven…
And to steam with Lush products? So much more Heavenly…
October 10th, 2008 at
The day of my wedding I woke up with red blotchy skin…what a nightmare. Luckily it cleared up as the day wore on but what a scare!
October 10th, 2008 at
With the stress of the current economy - we all need the opportunity to let off some steam in a positive way. This would make the icing on the positive cake.
October 10th, 2008 at
I am feeling blue. This would lighten my mood.
October 10th, 2008 at
I will be flying to see my in-laws tomorrow and talk about stress!
October 10th, 2008 at
Being involved in a long-distance relationship with a man over 3,000 miles away from me? Yes, you bet there are plenty of days when I’d have loved nothing more than to have a drink and lay back in the tub. Read and cry.
October 11th, 2008 at
After moving to my new home. I was soooo tired, bruised and every nail on both hands broken that I collasped in bed that night.

Job Interview! Whew! I could use BOTH for that one
October 11th, 2008 at
I would have loved to have had a great steam bath AND a clear complexion the day (and following week) that my mother was in the hospice dying and my body decided to return to its former eczema, which I hadn’t had since I was four years old! I’d had a clear complexion all these adult years and now that I suddenly had even more obligations than usual and had to deal with many more peoplethe eczema returned full force (possibly from the stress, or they say perhaps with aging),
but it should have chosen a different time!
October 11th, 2008 at
I could have used a relaxing steam bath on the day I had to have surgery.
October 12th, 2008 at

October 13th, 2008 at
Lush is divine! What day wouldn’t I need a great bath? A steam to clear my stuffy head from the allergies, warm water to soothe my aches, and the scent of clean and happy surrounding me. Everyday is worthy of a Lush steambath!
October 13th, 2008 at
i have a nasty complexion so i need it everyday..thanks
October 13th, 2008 at
Just about everything that could go wrong at work today went wrong. Today would be the day for a steam bath.

The day I dropped a full container of flour off the edge of the kitchen counter would have been a great day for a steam bath….and did I mention that my dog was in the direct path of the flour and proceeded to run around the house?
October 13th, 2008 at
Today would have been a great day for a steam bath. I took three tests for my college online classes, cooked dinner, and took care of our three week old newborn daughter.
October 13th, 2008 at
There was one day where I had to take a cab to a job interview, the interview went horribly wrong and I walked across the street to a restaurant to wait for the cab to pick me up. Well, I called and called and waited for hours and the cab never came (although they assured me that a cab was coming). Meanwhile, a snow storm was going on outside so it took me about eight hours to get back home.
October 13th, 2008 at
I would love to feel this on my face,it sounds so relaxing,count me in
October 14th, 2008 at
The last Oktoberfest we had at the restaurant, there were so many people and running what I thought was 1000 beers.
October 14th, 2008 at
I spent the weekend installing cabinets, flooring and doing clean-up. I hurt all over and could really have used a great steam bath.
October 14th, 2008 at
We were having to pack up our household ourselves, and just didn’t plan well. We had to get a little sleep because we had to drive from Alabama to Dallas, TX overnight…so we napped for an hour or two, threw the rest of what would fit into the truck and took off. Most miserable day of my life…and after we got to Texas, I really could have used a relaxing moment. Did I mention we had a 1 year old? Oh, yeah.
October 14th, 2008 at
all last week, i had so much things to do, and i could barely get any sleep, by the end of the week i was way sore!
October 14th, 2008 at
On any night my son had colic, thankfully he is about two now but I remember this clearly. I was shellshocked at the end of each day by the time my husband arrived home. I was up all night and day. Holding him, doing all the different things that helped - for a little while.
Have a lucky day.

October 14th, 2008 at
I could have really used a relaxing steam bath the day someone wrecked my car while it was parked on the street.
October 14th, 2008 at
It’s really hard to commit to one day that I need a relaxing steam bath, but maybe the day when ALL 3 kids were sick and whiny and I had a headache, but had to take care of the kids first.
October 14th, 2008 at
I’m going to waterproof the deck today so after that hugh task I will need something to relax me.
October 14th, 2008 at
yesterday when we were building rooms in our basement my back is killing me carrying all that sheet rock
October 14th, 2008 at
The day I had to take my husband to the airport to catch his first flight on his way to Afghanistan for a year with the Army. I tried so hard to be brave but I was 7 months pregnant and all of my family was clear across the country so I felt so alone. It was like saying goodbye to the person I love so much and who is also my best friend.
October 14th, 2008 at
I would have to say anytime both of my kids have the flu! I don’t sleep at all for an entire week when they get that sick! Thanks for the contest!

October 14th, 2008 at
Everyday I could use a steam bath. I have a 4 year old who has gymnastics, swimming, and soccer to drive around. I have a 1 year old with cerebral palsy who has therapy appointment 4 out of 5 days a week. Then my husband is clueless without my guidance, I have to get him off to work, and college. I barely have time to sit down and relax let alone have a steam bath.
October 14th, 2008 at
Two weekends in a row in which the first I had to work a double shift to cover for someone, the week after that I had to wake up early to prepare and take pictures for a wedding which did not end until midnight, then had to wake up early to serve at church the next morning (7:45am)
October 14th, 2008 at
Today is one of those days that a relaxing steam bath would be great.
October 14th, 2008 at
A day I could have used a clear complexion was when I unexpectedly ran into my exboyfriend. Let’s just say my face was rebelling against me that day. Of all days!!!
October 14th, 2008 at
I could use a relaxing steam bath everyday! I am a recent college graduate working my way up through the ranks of a major medical device company. I currently am in a department full of “lifers” and I fight every day to earn a promotion and move on to a more exciting position. My half hour gym break doesn’t always alleviate all the stress I endure.
October 14th, 2008 at
When I come home from my next doctor’s appointment.
October 14th, 2008 at
After a long day of teaching, I have a stack of papers to grade, parents to call, tests to create, and no time for myself. I would love a long, hot bath now and then!
October 14th, 2008 at

October 14th, 2008 at
I am a cancer survivor that just got bumped off of my health insurance and can not afford the health care I need. Bathing and reading and sipping on hot beverages is what gets me through my days. I could really use a bath right now.
October 14th, 2008 at
Last Friday they would have been great - I finished 2 solid weeks of meetings all day long everyday Yuck!!

October 29th, 2008 at
I am a stay at home Mom of twins and a teenager. I do not get to spend as much time on myself as I would like. I could use it to have some “me” time after rubbing fries out of the carpet and trying to get my daughter to clean her room.
