LUSH Haul

I ♥ LUSH

... and here is my most recent haul from LUSH UK

Skullduggery Bath Bomb


This was a "last chance buy", and seeing it wasn't available at LUSH Canada stores (or at least mine), I couldn't pass up the opportunity to buy one to try. According to the LUSH UK website, this was their "homage to Mexican 'sugar skulls': fizzy, uplifting lime and neroli bath ballistic" £2.75 or approx. $4.47


Happy Bubble - Retro Bubble Bar


Another I had not seen at my local LUSH store. The LUSH UK websites states "If you're having trouble lifting the corners of your mouth into a smile, sink into a delightfully fragrant blue bath covered in mounds of fluffy bubbles. With refreshing tangerine, neroli and orange blossom, your smile is bound to return. Sandalwood oil not only helps to rehydrate and soothe the skin, it's also very, very relaxing, helps you calm your anxiety and makes you feel lovely all over. So if you're feeling down, best take a Happy Bubble bath and feel much better." £2.85 or approx. $4.63


Think Pink Bath Bomb


Another bath bomb I had been wanting to get my hands on, LUSH describes the Think Pink as "The reassuring smell of tonka and vanilla, with a hit of neroli lifts you up; all wrapped in a pink and frivolous ballistic to stop you taking yourself too seriously. In the past this ballistic wasn’t vegan because of the ingredients in the candy flowers. But now they are suitable for vegans – because when you buy this many flowers, you can ask for the recipe to be changed!! So now, when vegans aren’t thinking cake, they can Think Pink." £2.08 or approx. $3.38


The Green Bubbleroon (Bubble Bar)


These were also not available in the LUSH Canada stores, so thought why not give it a try. Who doesn't like bubbles. According to the LUSH UK website, this would make your bath water "A foaming, meadow-sweet bath of grass and orange flower. A fresh uplifting bath that could bring sun to even the darkest winter days. Kind on your skin, with coconut oil and shea butter to give silky-soft water." £2.71 or approx. $4.40


Rose Jam Bubbleroon (Bubble Bar)


According to LUSH, the Rose Jam Bubbleroon provides "A bath that helps you get out of it feeling better than when you got in. With lemon to bring clarity and alertness and rose to lift the spirits. The geranium oil in here will balance the skin, whilst the coconut oil and shea butter will leave you feeling smooth and soft." This smells of roses, with the sweetness of jam." £2.92 or approx. $4.74


Yuzu and Cocoa Bubbleroon (Bubble Bar)


I loved how LUSH described this bubble bar ... "When yuzu feel the need for softer skin and a positive outlook, yuzu should yuzu this yuzu-inspired treat" ... how great is that LOL According to the LUSH website this bubble bar is "A cunningly bright and uplifting treat disguised in a rich warm fragrance of cocoa absolute and tonka. Let the light grapefruit and bergamot oils lift your mind, whilst the cocoa and tonka bring warmth and comfort to the heart. Coconut oil and shea butter pamper your skin whilst you soak." £2.46 or approx. $4.00


Magic - Retro Bath Bomb


The first thing I noticed about this bath bomb, is it's HUGE. Magic was originally created for Christmas 2008, and I had been wanting to try one for some time ... so Thank you LUSH UK. LUSH's website describes it as follows "Amongst all the sweet fragrances of this year’s Christmas products, Magic provides something a little different for the discerning bather. It uses native herbs to conjure a mystical aroma that’s sure to enchant and put on a colour-changing show as it fizzes round the tub.

With it characteristic tetrakaidekahedral shape (that’s a very cool way of saying fourteen-sided), Magic has a brilliant turquoise outer layer fragranced with marjoram and rose to bring calm and clarity.

As it fizzes away the water starts to turn a gorgeous purple colour and the pink inner core adds its colour to the mix. The centre is fragranced with a mix of basil and peppermint oils which blend with those of the outer layer to give a unique fragrance that manages to be both refreshing and utterly relaxing." My favorite description of this bath bomb is "Take your bathtub on a magical mystery tour" LOL   £3.13 or approx $5.08


So there you have it ... I can't wait to try all of these out (although not all at once) ... and will definitely let you know which was my favorite
