lush and sugar?

[bex123]

hi all , just wondered.... i use lush products quite a lot ..but.. its occured to me that some i have never used are made with sugar...like sugar scrubs etc... would that affect b.s levels...can you absorb sugar through the skin? etc

i have never used these ones but some of them smell really lovley and i would like to try them... its just the sugar thing that worries me

thanks

Well, we were told to stop using fruit scented handwash and showergel, as they might contain sugar. So when you wash your hands with it and then do a blood test....it might give you a higher reading.

Are there any trial or sample sizes? If so give them a try and see what happens. Then if they push the numbers up you haven't spent a small forune on the full sized product.

it wasnt so much would it affect b.s results from a sticky finger point of view...more that i wondered can we absorb sugar through our skin... i think im going to have a google see what i can find out...its an interesting one😉

They usually have samples in the shop of everything so you could just try in the shop - or the staff in our local ones are very good and would probably let you have a little if you explain

Time to change the bubble bath. If it makes no difference, you can always go back to it. Carol does actually use Apple shampoo and conditioner.
