So on the day of Lush's Halloween and fall range being released I headed down to my local store (Chester) and picked up one of each bath bomb and bubble bar that was new to the season range..
Pumpkin - £3.95 (View the product online here.)
Now I was slightly shocked by the price of this bath bomb, considering it doesn't have anything inside like others it's slightly on the price side of things... I was expecting the price to be around £3.75 like the other Lush ones, never the less I had to get one. But when I smelt the product I fell in love, the scent is nothing like other Lush products in-fact its a lot more spice like with a hint of strong orange... I loved it that much I ended up buying two, when I put it into the water I noticed the bath bomb melted away very very fast but the smell was so desirable it stuck around my bathroom for hours after I finished my bath.
Would I buy this product again? Yes!!! No question about this product, I love the scent and how powerful it is.
Monsters Ball - £4.25 (View the product online here.)
Now among my stalking on the show case event, this was probably the product I was most excited to try out purely because of the usual look it has unlike the other Lush bath bombs... When I went into store I was instantly put of by the price, I was rather shocked... But then staff came over and explained the eye of the ball was in fact a bath melt and then they went and demo'ed the product in store... I loved the bright colours that burst out of the product, and the smell was very 'lush' like with a very fresh, soft and somewhat sweet scent. 
Would I buy this product again? Possibly, as a one off every now and then the only thing which puts me off this product is the price.

Sparkly Pumpkin - £3.95 (View the product online here).
As usual Lush HAVE to bring back the good oldies, and this pumpkin bubble bar is defiantly one of them. As for the price it's not one of my favorite products again for the size, I slightly feel a little ripped off but never the less I had to purchase! It's one of these very glittery products, you pick it up and and are instantly left with glittery finger tips. You would probably get two decent baths out of this or one very luxury bath!
Would I buy this product again? Yes, honestly this product has been around for awhile each time this season comes it's just one of those things you end up buying even when you say no...

 Autumn Leaf - £3.75 (View the product online here).
Now this is one of the top favorites of the Halloween range products, this reminds me of the 'SUPERDAD' bath bomb because if the height.. The product itself is very 'average' among the style and colours, but I love when you place this product in the water it can float along the top leaving a perfect picture moment!
Would I buy this product again? Yes 100% I love how this just floats among the top of the water, the design is cute and different and isn't too badly priced.


Lord Of Misrule - £3.95 (View the product online here).
This bath bomb is very spice oriented in regards to its scent, plus I do admit it being rather on the strong side but it does grow on you over time. At first the price shocked me a little, but when I used the product it changed my mint 100%. The product itself is green on the outside, but once placed among the water and starts to fizz it turns into a pinky/red wine like colour its so beautiful and pretty to capture.
Would I buy this product again? Possibly, it wouldn't be my first choice as there is many others I would possibly choose first but the product itself is much more of the luxury bath bomb you would use for a one off occasion.

 Boo - £3.50 (View the product online here).
Again, this is something new to Lush this year and I was rather excited because of how festive it is.. When I saw the price I was completely put off, it is very overpriced considering other bath melts are £2 each. Never the less I had to buy one just to try, the scent itself isn't very overpowering it's a simple smell that reminds me of herbs and somewhat of a light lavender which leaves the water a milky colour with very few bubbles. 
Would I buy this product again? Honestly, no I felt the scent wasn't anything which stood out or lasted long and for a melt it was somewhat overpriced.

 Overall I will honestly say I love some of the designs on the products this year, my favorite is by sure the Pumpkin bath bomb purely down to it's scent... X

So recently Lush hosted the Exclusive Show Case event in London, in fact I had an invite to attend but due to the short time I had I was unable to find a hotel to stay in and would have worked out to be rather expensive to attend. (Hopefully next year I will be able to) But I stayed up to date with all the live feeds they had among the two days, and followed all the various people who was tagging Lush and Lush Kitchen in photos from the day.. 

It was instantly noticeable that they offered not only the Christmas range but had some rare exclusives. They had huge giant Dragons Egg bath bombs and the same for Intergalactic bath bombs, I honestly fell in love.. The following week Lush Kitchens menu offered both of these bath bombs for £12 each, but they was both being posted on the site on two separate days... At first I was unsure if I should make two separate orders for them both but then I would end up paying for shipping twice... (which I ended up not doing) The price of one shipping could of bought me a bath bomb right? So I waited it out, in hope that on the second day of the menu they would both be in stock so I could make one order... 

 I was up 8am on the website ready to buy when I noticed the Mother of Dragons Egg had sold out (I was so disappointing and shocked), so I ended up purchasing two of the Nebula.. When they arrived I was beyond shocked and impressed if I do say so!


The size of these beauties is HUGE, honestly words cant describe they are much bigger than expected. Plus, the smell is out of this world such a powerful strong mint like scent it's perfection! I decided after taking lots and lots of photos, I would attempt to cut one up and see exactly whats inside, how much I could use per bath... 


I ended up cutting the product into four LARGE chunks (it was a struggle to cut, so please be careful and get an extra helping hand when doing), I then broke each chunk into half over the bath tub letting the dust float into the water. As a result I got SIX luxury size baths with just one of these bath bombs, AMAZING right???

 I made a YouTube video demonstrating the full size of this product, capturing how I cracked it in half, and a demo of putting a chunk into my bath tub. Watch the video here. X

So over the past few weeks, and even the odd month I've been starting my Lush Kitchen & Lush Oxford Street haul/collection (buying from Lush site and getting Oxford Street products from honest, loyal sellers off Instagram & Depop!).




Lush Kitchen products;

Magic Bath Bomb
Retailing at £3.95 this product is very similar to the Ex Factor (in terms of scent and colour) with a strong peppermint over-scent powering through when you begin to fizz in the water. When the product begins to fizz it instantly picks up a pink bubble ton from inside the product (which packs out the scent even more), personally I love this product for when I'm feeling ill or having a dull day.

 Somewhere Over The Rainbow Bath Bomb (also oxford street exclusive)
Retailing at £3.25 each this bath bomb is very affordable, super cute looking and a pretty decent size. This was a Lush Oxford Street exclusive for quite some time during the Easter period but then was released to Lush Kitchen just before Easter (which was a major surprise, and as predictable it sold out pretty instant). The scent is very floral like, with a sweet rose scent smelling throughout.

 Ex Factor Bath Bomb
Retailing at £3.50 this product was an exclusive to Valentines Day Lush Kitchen (yes I know which isn't spring but why not throw it in?), they sold out pretty instant if I remember correctly this year. The smell on this small but mighty product is inspiring if I do say so, however the product is also extremely fragile (hence the head was chopped off as part of delivery transit). When I used this product if fizzed out instantly, quickly melting away and leaving a super fresh smell of the 'Butterball' products Lush offer. It's just such a relaxing product to use.

Karma Bubble Bar 
Retailing at £3.25 each I was surprised to find this product being a completely different model to the old Karma one Lush had. It's very bright and orange, oval shaped and isn't overly huge I would honestly say you could get one luxury bath with this or two more reserved baths. The product itself let a LOT of bubbles out, it was crazy and by far one of the most bubbliest I've seen. It left the water in a orange shade, smelling of a fresh fruity citrus scent mixed with oranges. For the price I would probably buy this again, but it's just something I wanted to add to my collection ( I wouldn't overly rate this but that's just me).


Lush Oxford Street Exclusive products;

 Sunflower Bubble Bar ; 
This product retails at £4.95, and can only be purchased from Lush Oxford Street or in a small selection of the Mothers Day gift sets (which personally didn't interest me). As with any Lush products, bubble bars are my favorite because you get more use out of them.. But with this Sunflower product, WOW! It's huge, literally bigger than the size of my palm you could easily get 4 luxury size baths or even 6 more reserved baths. The smell is very citrus oriented (pretty lemon like), and not so much of the expected floral scent you'd get.

Reusable Windmill 
Retailing at £5.95 this product does seem to be more on the higher side of price, with most reusable bubble bars (on a stick) average at around £4-£5 but personally I wouldn't pay this again.. It just seems overly priced, although as with all reusable products you can easily get a good 6 luxury bath worth's. The scent is again, very citrus oriented but this time more lime like, plus the scent is very strong and easily noticeable. One thing I do love about this product is the "stick" is very thick and stable compared to other reusable products in the past which makes it last longer.

 Overall, I will say my #1 favorite is the Sunflower bubble bar purely by it's scent, size and affordable price! If only it became available on Lush Kitchen so I could get a supply of them stocked up. As for bath bombs, I love the Magic product because of the unique colour inside, and the fresh smelling scent. Let me know what your favorite Lush product is below?X

Hey guys, so I thought i'd write up a haul post based on all the Lush Kitchen products I managed to get my hands on in March! First off I just want to point out, this took a LOT of work to get these, I was setting alarms to ensure I was awake and on my computer at 8am sharp to order before they sell out. (Yea, some of these sold out in minutes which is just crazy right?)



Karma Bubble Bar - £3.25 each
The first products I ordered was four Karma Bubble Bars, these a completely different model to the old Karma one Lush had. It's very bright and orange, oval shaped and isn't overly huge I would honestly say you could get one luxury bath with this or two more reserved baths. The product itself let a LOT of bubbles out, it was crazy and by far one of the most bubbliest I've seen. It left the water in a orange shade, smelling of a fresh fruity citrus scent mixed with oranges. For the price I would probably buy this again, but it's just something I wanted to add to my collection ( I wouldn't overly rate this but that's just me).


Down The Rabbit Hole - £3.95
I ordered four of these as I had received one just a few days before based off a Lush Oxford Street purchase (you can read about here). This bubble bar is my favorite so far this year, the size is HUGE! I honestly am in love with it, you can easily get two luxury baths out of this or even three or four baths if you like to use less of the product. It's such a colorful product too, the swirl pattern just makes me love it even more. The scent is very fruity reminding me of oranges and raspberries.  Watch an amazing short video I made on Instagram here.


Tweet Bubble Bar - £3.45
When I first heard about these products (which was when they was on sale in the Lush Oxford Street Store), I quickly became obsessed with how cute they looked. All of them was different shapes, different eyes and just adorable in my opinion...When I saw they was on Lush Kitchen I tried my hardest to buy but they instantly sold out, (a lot of people missed out too)... So after some hard work I found some buyers who was willing to part with some and managed to two! They are fresh  orange and citrus scented (very strong too), however they aren't all that large in size so would probably have to use a whole on for a bath. But honestly, I'm too afraid to use them they are so cute!


Which Came First? Bath Bomb - £6.95
When I saw the menu for the Kitchen I was really confused by this product, I didn't see how it would be an exclusive because it had the same name as the pink egg on the store site and in stores which can be bought anytime... But when I saw it I realized it was different! It was a yellow egg, I just had to buy. The scent is sooooo sweet, sugary and beyond tasty smelling I am just in love. Although it seems pricey I love these products because once you've cracked the Egg you have three bath bombs which means three baths! The product itself was simple to crack, I had 0 difficulty and inside I received the bunny (which was also easy to get out it hadn't stuck to the product inside). You can see a video I made cracking this open over on my Instagram here, and watch the video of the bunny Fizzing away with the chick I got from another Which Came First bath bomb here. And a video I made of the egg shell fizzing away on my Instagram here.




Overall, I am in love with all the products and have gotten a huge obsession with Lush Kitchen! Out of all the products I can honestly say that Down The Rabbit Hole bubble bar is by far my favorite, just because of its size, affordability and pretty colours!
