So when the Lush Father's day range launched I couldn't wait to get my hands on the new products, plus as a surprise Lush released the Lush Oxford Street 'Lava Lamp' bath bomb to all stores! (Which I love so thank you!!!) First off I just want to say, I was expecting more 'fathers day' products I felt like there wasn't much choice compared to the Easter or Mothers Day range... Plus I was expecting some rare Lush Kitchen products to be launched in favor for Fathers Day (but never happened). :'(

1. Lava Lamp bath bomb - RRP £3.95
WOW! I am in love with this product, when I went to my local store one of the friendly members of staff came over and gave me a full demo of this product, explaining in detail all about it. The purple circular dots on the bath bomb act as bath melts, they slowly melt away while the orange bath bomb part fizzes away. Which I love, it left the water very smooth and oily just like the Lush bath melts, but had an orange colour from the fizz! As for the scent it was very fresh, powerful and orange like. With a mix of olive's and a sugary creamy sweet scent powering its way through.

Superdad bath bomb - RRP £3.95
Another product Lush made me fall in love with, this bath bomb was different to most Lush ones I've used with it being very flat and long... The top is packed with different colours and when I placed in the water I was amazingly shocked that the bath bomb floated up right on it's own... It looked so pretty in the water with the red blending away into small bubbles, plus it took awhile to fizz away and left the water a very bright blue!

The Modfather bubble bar - RRP £3.65
When I first saw this I was unsure about the product, I didn't quite understand the style of it, circles on top of circles? Plus the size was fairly on the small side of things for it's price (which I kinda felt was overpriced). I did struggle to break this bubble bar in half when I got it home, it was very solid.. But a after managing to break it up it crumbled under the water (with difficulty) and left a TON of bubbles and a nice blue water colour which surprisingly was a lot for only half a product. So in total I got two bath worth's for this product (which is super satisfying).

Cream Candy bubble bar - RRP £2.95
Now I know this isn't new to Lush, it's not part of the Lush Father's Day range but I did pick one up when shopping purely because of it's affordable price. At first I expected to just use the whole bubble bar for one bath because this product is fairly small in size but I was shocked to find I only used half for a deluxe bath! It crumbled easily, gave a TON of bubbles with only half the product, and left the water a pretty pink colour.. I must say this is a new favorite Lush product, because of the usability and affordable price!

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

So of course when the Easter 2016 items for Lush arrived in stores a few weeks back I was first to run and grab one of each of the products! 

Fluffy Egg (Bath Bomb) - £2.95
This bath bomb is the most affordable out of the Easter range, plus it's super cute looking, average size AND it fizzes away smelling gorgeous. 

Which Came First (Bath Bomb) - £6.95
Another returning bath bomb from last year, I knew what to expect! I love these bath bombs, although they seem pricey you are getting three bath bombs in total! It can be messy trying to crack them open, some people like to smash the sides or others like myself take a more risky approach by trying to cut them open! (Please take care if you do this) This bath bomb smells so tasty and sugary, plus they seemed to open fairly easy to crack inside and find out if you got a cute chick bath bomb or a bunny one! I received two chicks in my (slightly gutted as I wanted one of each but oh well!)


Bunch Of Carrots (Reusable Bubble Bars) - £6.25
This year Lush brought back the reusable carrots! Which I love, because they look cute and of course, you can reuse them! I've only used the pink carrot so far, at first I thought they weren't going to last long as I thought they was smaller than last year. So far I've used the pink carrot three times and it seems to still have lots of life left which is all good!


Humty Dumty (Bath Bomb) - £6.95
This product is new to 2016 and to Lush! I've never seen this product before but seen as you have to crack it I loved the idea of getting my hands on this! When I asked in store staff they explained inside you would have a egg bath bomb, after a struggle to crack this product open I discovered it didn't really look like an egg. In fact, it pretty much stuck to the sides of the bath bomb, after a bit of research I noticed a few people also had the same issue as me. I was pretty disappointed since after a few weeks I saw people did get an egg shaped product which looked perfectly shaped! So not happy! Otherwise, the product fizzes out in a bright blue which I loved!




Golden Egg (Bath Bomb Melt) - £3.95
If I'm to be honest, I wasn't planning to purchase this product because of how glittery it was. But after much persuasion by the store staff, I added one to my collection and I was so proud I did! I expected this to explode and fizz like a normal bath bomb, but when I placed it in the water it slowly melted out the glitter layer, to more of a yellow fluffy layer, to a milky cream layer! And then finally to the fizzy bath bomb layer, it took ages to finally melt away, and it smelt so sugary and sweet.



Now I know some of the products in this haul isn't Easter theme, but I picked them up and why not include them?

Razzle Dazzle (Bath Oil) - £2
The bath oils are very small in size, you can hold among two fingers! I didn't know what to expect, but for a cheap price I thought i'd give it a shot. I placed in the water, and it slowly began to melt away, a light pink milky color in the water. And before long the oils started to push out of the product, float around in the water. When the oil eventually melted away, it left the water a nice pinky color, smelling so strong and very silky on my skin! I must admit I was shocked such a small product could do such a thing, I love them and want more and more!


Flowering Tea (Reusable Bubble Bar) - £4.95
As with most, I love using reusable products from Lush purely because they are 100% worth the money. This product is very lavender scented, relaxing and perfect for a hot bath before bed! I've only used this once since I bought it, but I've seen others write about how at the end pink flowers fall out of which I'm super excited about!

Let me know in the comments below which your favorite is? I am for sure wanting to buy some more fluffy eggs, golden eggs and which came first bath bomb! X

Lush Easter Haul 2016

So of course when the Easter 2016 items for Lush arrived in stores a few weeks back I was first to run and grab one of each of the products!...

Hey guys! I thought today I would write a mini short blog post on two of the recently new Lush Cosmetics bath products I managed to purchase! First off the Rose Bombshell bath bomb as part of the mothers day retailing at £3.95 (click here to view online). To begin with, I was shocked to see this as part of the mothers day range and would of honestly expected to see this in the Valentines day collection as it's so "lovable". It's scent is packed of fresh floral smells like pink roses, but it somewhat was sugary and sweet reminding me of turkish delight! When I placed inside the water it instantly fizzed away bright pink with rose petals bursting out, it felt so relaxing and romantic I could of stayed in the bath all night long! Click here to view the video I made over on my Instagram.


And the Ladybird bubble bar was another collection from the mothers day products retailing at £3.95 (click here to view online). Again, I love this product first off because it's super cute looking but it's scent is super fresh, strong and clean smelling fruity! As with majority of Lush bubble bars, I split this in half to get two uses out of. I found it easy to split down the middle and into half, and crumbled easily under the warm water where lots of bubbles blew out! Plus, it gave so much of a strong red colour to the water I was shocked considering I only used half of the product! Click here to view a video I made of the product on my Instagram.

Overall, I am in love with both these products and would buy both again purely because of how relaxing they was! Let me know in the comments below if you've used these? What's your favorite lush product?X

Hey guys! So a few weeks ago when Lush's new Unicorn Horn came to store for the Valentines range I rushed down to my local store to pick one up. Personally because I haven't ever tried one of these before and just needed to add to my collection! First off I was 100% shocked by the price retailing at £4.25 as I was expecting it to be a little lower (About £3.50). Anyway... As it's a bubble bar I did expect to get ad-least two uses out of this which satisfied me enough to make a purchase!

When I saw the product in person, I loved the colours and glitter sparkle it had to it! Although I did notice it was very "hard" and not as soft, which did become an issue when I came to using it. Usually, with any bubble bars.. I break them in half enough for two baths, but with this Unicorn Horn I did struggle to break it evenly in half.. (When I finally managed to break it), I crumbled under the warm running bath water which was also a struggle with the stiff product. But the colours turned the water into a light pinky colour with a sparkle of glitter, the other major downside was I noticed the lack of bubbles and colour which forced me to use the whole product in one bath.

 Overall, I was disappointed with the product, the fact I had to use the whole product, the price and how solid the product was making it difficult to break up and crumble. Let me know below if you've used this lush product before? Did you have these issues?X

One of the Christmas bubble bars from Lush this year is a super cute "peeping santa" selling at £3.95. This is a love of mine, the scent is super strong reminding me of sugary floral sweet scent that just smells delicious. 


With bubble bars I usually break them up and use half and half in the bath, with this specific bubble bar I began by ripping off a bottom corner and used under the water crumbling away and couldn't help but notice it filled my bath FULL of bubbles and turning the water into a deep red. I was super shocked as I was expecting to use this product for two baths, but now that I used such a small piece I can tell this product would easily do four good size baths!

As part of the Lush Halloween range they offered a super glittery sparkle pumpkin bubble bar which had a small twig in the center. I thought this was super cute to begin with as I loved it was all glittery, although when you pick it up it got glitter EVERYWHERE! And I mean everywhere, this was probably one of the messiest bubble bars I'ved used so far it did get all over my clothes, fingers AND you have to rinse out the bath once you've used as it leaves a glitter stain in the bath tub!


I used half of this for one bath, and the other half for another time - Usually with bubble bars I find it easy to break up but with this one it was hard, I found it stiff to break into two from the center and ended up pulling sides of it apart for one bath then the center for another. After crumbling under warm water in my bath it instantly gave off a orange colour with the glitter falling into the water. It let out small cute bubbles and left the water with a shimmer of glitter (which on the bonus didn't stick to my skin!!), it smelt very fruity and reminded me a little of juices you can buy like lime - A fresh scent, but once I crumbled into the water I did notice it lost its smell a little.

This product is used like the Lush "bubble bars" where you crumble into warm water and let it turn the water into a soapy scented colourful water! This Rose Jam bubbleroon retails at £3.75 & is in a shape of a Macaroon which I love, it's super stylish and it is PINK! 



 As with any bubble bar type products I purchase from Lush I only use half of the product for one bath (which allows you to get two uses of the product which is totally worth the money!). So I crumbled half the product into warm water which was plenty! It instantly turned the water into a bright pink, leaving lots of small soapy bubbles all around and leaving the water like a silk soap substance. Plus the scent reminded me so much of Turkish Delight (not sure if anyone else thinks that?)

So I decided to get round to using my Hedgehog bubble bar from Lush, first of I want to say how cute and adorable this guy is! I must admit mine got a little squished in my box of bath products but oh well! The smell was very "Clean" reminding me of "Talcum Powder", plus the scent was very strong! I used half of the hedgehog for my bath (do note when breaking it in half it gets messy, some pieces fly out everyone so do it carefully and in an area easy to clean up!).


I crumbled the pieces into the bath (While the water was still running), it had instantly started to melt, fizzy away and become very "soapy". The water instantly started to fill with bubbles and becoming very milky, only using half of the hedgehog filled my bath tub (which is larger than most) full of bubbles!!! I noticed this was a silky smooth product in the water, and did have a small shimmer of glitter (which didn't stick to my body after drying) although it did leave a small shimmer of glitter in my bath tub which had to be rinsed out afterwards. Click here to view the video I made on my Instagram of the bubble bar.

Hey guys! So today I thought I would write about a Lush Bubble Bar which was a "Easter Special", in the shape and appearance of a carrot! Yup a carrot, the actual product is the orange bit and the green bit which I call "Leafy bit! is plastic which you can throw away at the end.

To begin with, the scent... It smells very "fresh" and "outdoors" like reminding me of fields and the air scent (May sound a little weird!). At first I had no idea how to use this product, I tried to mix it around in the water but not much happened, that was when my mum told me I had to run it under the tap. So keeping the water tap on I held the carrot under it and instantly the water was running down under it in a orange colour it let out so many bubbles I can't even begin to explain! I held it for about a minute then removed it because the bubbles began to fill the entire bath and the water turned an orange tone (More of a dull yellowy orange). One thing I do have to point out, is I held the carrot by the green "leafy" bit while running it under the tap and it did fall off and resulted in me holding the bottom half of the carrot so wasn't overly joyed by that! 

Otherwise I have to admit I do kinda like this product a lot, as it is reusable I can say this will easily last me a good 3-4 more times! It let out a huge amount of bubbles but the water wasn't "oily" leaving your feel silky soft it was like any other bubble bath but with more bubbles and fun using it! Click here to view the video on my Instagram.
