Heavenly Bodies

Here’s a video where i demo and review the heavenly bodies buttercream. 

 

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Glycerine, Rhassoul Mud, Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia chinensis), Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao), Perfume, Tangerine Oil (Citrus reticulata), Sweet Orange Oil (Citrus dulcis), Vanilla Absolute (Vanilla planifolia), Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao), Sodium Chloride, EDTA, Tetrasodium Editronate, *Limonene
*Occurs naturally in essential oils
Size: 7.0 oz $14.40 Heavenly Bodies – 3.5 oz $7.20
NOTE: This product may melt and is NOT guaranteed to arrive solid during the summer months!

Ohhh, there’s nothing better than smearing your favorite foody combo (orange and chocolate) all over yourself in the bath, and having it be less drying than soap. I love the Sonic Death Monkey scent of this Heavenly Bodies buttercream. I do believe this choclate dipped orange scent is my favorite.

Lush description: Want a body like an angel? Got a body like a zombie? Revive your skin with a muddy mixture of chocolate, cocoa butter, refreshing orange juice, anti-microbial Rhassoul mud and stimulating tangerine oils. We scent each chunk of Heavenly Bodies Butter Cream with vanilla absolute, cocoa absolute (yes, you really can get natural chocolate perfume), tangerine and sweet orange so it smells rather like a chocolate orange cheesecake but it does taste like soap so when you put it in the fridge please don’t put it right next to the edible creamy temptations. We would hate it to be wasted. For the best effect smooth it all over the outside of your body. You’ll smell like an angel and your skin will feel as soft as gossamer.

Scent Family: Sonic Death Monkey Shower Gel; Chocolate Whipstick Lip Balm

Butter Creams
Creamy Cakes of Glycerine Soap made in huge buckets and hand-rolled in petals, chocolate, cocoa butter and other unexpected ‘packaging’, our butter creams look like huge helpings of luxury dessert. At room temperature they start out smooth, soft and slippery, but if you’re the sensation-seeking type you can choose to chill or freeze them to turn them into blocks of invigoratingly refreshing shower soap. Butter Creams are a luxurious blend of 15% soap – enough to get you clean but not make masses of non-essential lather – and 85% natural, skin softening oils and butters, glycerine, plant infusions and essential oils. Use them for summery soft skin.

Lovely Jubblies

Ingredients: Meadowsweet Infusion , Fresh Rose Infusion , Organic Cold Pressed Almond Oil , Cocoa Butter , Organic Cold Pressed Jojoba Oil , Stearic Acid, Glycerine, Organic Cold Pressed Evening Primrose Oil , Organic Cold Pressed Avocado Oil , Orange Blossom Honey , Triethanolamine, Lemongrass Oil , Ylang Ylang Oil , Jasmine Absolute , Tiger Lily Petals , Beeswax , Cetearyl Alcohol, *Citral, *Geraniol,Benzyl Salicylate, Benzyl Alcohol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Perfume

Lush Times: We’ve developed a cream to keep your bits firm and supple. This blend of cold-pressed, organic oils can keep your knockers, decolletage, stomach and bottom in top nick. The tightening action of meadowsweet and the fragrant, floral boo-kay of orange blossom and rose will give you the loveliest jubblies in town. Cushdy!

This smells like honey and orange flower to me more than anything. It’s lovely. It’s not greasy or anything. And it really does seem to firm things up.

Noubar

 

Lush Times Online: Then the day got even better! Mo pulled the covers off to strip bare her brand new Palm Oil Free Sexy Noubar Soap! It’s one of those “But it looks so delicious, surely i could just take a tiny bite…” soaps that are her speciality. To be fair it does look rather like nougat, what with all those crushed pistachios to give you an exfoliating scrub. Dont do it. Just wash with it. To give it another posh confectionary touch, Mo’s given it a Turkish rose absolute fragrance, with coffee and a hint of smokey vetivert. It’s long name is to remind everyone of the campaign to stop primary forests being destroyed replaced with palm plantations; profitable for the owners but disastrous for the local people and wildlife and suicidal for our shared environment. We don’t just campaign, we act. Join in! And remember, wash with it, no chewing!

Ingredients:Water (Aqua), Glycerine, Rapeseed oil; Sunflower oil; Coconut oil (Brassica napus; Helianthus annuus; Cocos nucifera), Chopped Peanuts (Arachis hypogaea), Chopped Almonds (Prunus dulcis), Chopped Walnuts (Juglans regia), Sodium Hydroxide, Perfume, Titanium Dioxide, Pistachio Nuts (Pistacia vera), Gardenia Extract (Gardenia jasminoides), Vetivert Oil (Vetiveria zizanoides), Rose Absolute (Rosa damascena), Cedarwood Oil (Cupressus funebris), Sodium Chloride, Geraniol, *Citronellol, Colour 42045 * Occurs naturally in Essential Oils

It’s a beautiful green color, and it’s nutty, but i’m not thrilled with all the
nuts.

Hot Java

3 out of 5 ratingIngredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Cinnamon Sticks, Perfume, Ginger Oil, Cinnamon Powder, Ginger Powder, Coriander Oil, Ginger Absolute, Ylang Ylang Oil, Juniperberry Oil, Gardenia Extract, D&C Red No. 33

This is/was Lush’s spicy bath bomb in 2004 and it smells like clove, cinnamon, and ginger. It’s a good staple ballistic for the cold weather months.  To me It needed some depth. It was very acidic, and astringent, like tea is.  It’s more bitter then i would’ve imagined. I just wish it could’ve been sweeter, just a teeny weeny bit.  There is cinnamon bark in the bomb which drift around in the water but Hot Java isn’t spicy as Lush’s “Marathon” bubble bar, or Hot Toddy, which were spicier.After I used my five up, I never bought one again.
Hot Java was DCd in 2007. It was in regular production for about 1 1/2 years.

LushHotJava

Lush Times 2006 description: Jump into a Hot Java bath every time you need warming up. It’s for cold days . so that’s most of them . or days when you’ve got a cold or when you.ve been out in the cold and need warming up right through. It’s good for when you’re feeling creaky after exercising too. Run a warm bath, drop in the Hot Java and let the spices soak right in. There’s warming ginger oil, warming ginger powder and some warming ginger absolute too. Very warm! Powdered cinnamon is traditionally used to relieve aches, ylang ylang relaxes your muscles and juniper berry oil is said to help relieve stiff joints. A week in the tropics would be lovely but a Hot Java will do nicely.

There are all kinds of tiny pieces of cinnamon stick all over the tub. If you dont like bits in your bath i recommend putting this bsth bomb in a kitchen strainer and then hold the strainer in the falling water stream. No bits this way.

This is fast fizzing bomb. It dissolves quickly.

The resulting water is a dark coral color.

Melomint

5 out of 5 rating

Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Tartaric acid, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Lauryl Betaine, Peppermint oil, Cocamide DEA, Flax seed oil, Cypress Oil, Perfume, Gardenia Extract, Chlorophyll, Color.

My review is from 2006, and i feel the same way about it in 2016.

Okay. I’m so amazed with Melomint bubble bar. And I’m amazed at “Summer” on the uk forum for ever having the patience with us to again and again try to get our collective together to vote for it and (thank heavens) finally having it win this time. It looks like a watermelon…in technicolor. It turns the water a beautiful light red/dark coral color. (I’m taking a pic of the water next bath). It smells like spearmint (not sweet mouthwash-y peppermint). It’s refreshing as all get out when the temperature rises in Summer. And what is up with the little watermelon seeds? Cute! I think it’s darn near perfect, bravo Lush.

It is strong enough of a mint to stand alone, and the water color is so unique for a Lush product that I wouldn’t want to change it. 😀 If you like Lush’s “Ice Hotel” bubble bar you’ll love this I think. It’s the same minty freshness just without the lavender. And the cypress really works here. It helps sort of ground it without even being noticeable. Wow.

LT description: If you like spearmint chewing gum you’ll likely have a weakness for this bubble bar. The mint, cypress and chlorophyll provides relief to tired and aching bodies at the end of a hard day, and with the look and shape of a slice of watermelon, this bubble bar is a beauty.

Lemslip

4 out of 5 rating.

See my sink demo video below 😊Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Glycerine, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Irish Moss Infusion (Chondrus crispus), Fresh Lemon Juice (Citrus limonum), Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao), Coconut Butter (Cocos nucifera), Perfume, Sodium Chloride, Lime Oil (Citrus aurantifolia), EDTA, Tetrasodium Editronate, Gardenia Extract (Gardenia jasminoides)
*Occurs naturally in essential oils
Size: 7.0 oz $12.60 Lemslip – 3.5 oz $6.30
NOTE: This product may melt and is NOT guaranteed to arrive solid during the summer months!

This one surprised me at how yummy, strong and wonderful this lemony buttercream is. I have dry skin so even though the smell is wonderful it dries my skin a bit more than the others, probably because it’s made for oilier skin. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like the scent.

Lush 2006 description: If you have oily skin with a tendency to go spotty then grab a slice or two of this and start washing all over on a daily basis. Fresh lemon juice is a beautiful cleanser with anti-microbial properties and it has a stimulating effect on the skin too. Irish Moss isn’t what it sounds like; it’s a skin-softening seaweed packed with minerals to get the best out of skin in need of a full service. Softening cocoa and coconut butters make sure that even with all this deep cleansing going on, you’re going to feel smooth and soft as you step out of the shower.

Butter Creams
Creamy Cakes of Glycerine Soap made in huge buckets and hand-rolled in petals, chocolate, cocoa butter and other unexpected ‘packaging’, our butter creams look like huge helpings of luxury dessert.

The yellow ‘bubble brush’ bubble bars in my photo below were made by Lush in the same scent of Lemslip.

Here’s a demo video i made of this buttercream

Skin Sin

Skin Sin 100g £3.25p

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Almond Oil (Prunus dulcis), Cocoa Butter (Theobroma cacao), Glycerine, Stearic Acid, Tagettes Oil (Tagettes glandulifera), Tangerine Oil (Citrus reticulata), Chamomile Oil (Anthemis nobilis), Lavender Oil (Lavandula hybrida), Perfume, Triethanolamine, Cetearyl Alcohol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben.

Lush.a.Lot’s Review: Skin Sin is similar to Lush’s discontinued “Cherie Ripe” massage bar. It’s a lighter scent then Cherie Ripe message bar or Snap the Whip or even Potion. When I first put it on, it was cherry, in a majorly yummy way. Now that it’s rubbed in and stuff it smells like light soft cherry and just a touch of that fruity currant smell.  I guess I’m just lucky with these latest round of new products because this has absolutely no acrid currant-cat pee smell on me whatsoever as some say it does. Not in the least.  Skin Sin is beautiful. It’s just a lushious black currant creamy raspberry scent. This is a nice lighter scented summer body lotion that is quickly absorbed like “Potion”, and it’s also like “Potion” in consistency. I could actually wear this to work and not be worried about it being to “Lushy” or too “Strong”.

Lush Description: Skin Sin started life as a truly beautiful cream which made our skin feel good all over. We used almond oil to sink deep down into the skin and give longer lasting benefits (not just a nice smell and a feeling which lasts half and hour like some chemical-raddled creams do). We added nourishing cocoa butter and humectant vegetable glycerine, soothing tagettes and chamomile oils. The trouble was with this gloriously effective cream, that its effective, dependable mix of essential oils made it smell all a bit too worthy. We wanted it to behave perfectly but to smell wicked. So Mark added a twist of rich, fruity cherry, which you smell more strongly as the earnest oils settle down and do their good works. It’s a bit like having Angelina Jolie join your school’s fundraising committee.

Spring Cleanser

Ingredients: Fresh Cucumber Infusion (Cucumus sativus), Spring Water (Aqua),Almond Oil(Prunus dulcis), Stearic Acid (vegetable based emulsifier), Cucumber Extract (Cucumus sativus), Cedarwood Oil, Violet Leaf Absolute, Chamomile Oil, Oakmoss, Fennel Oil, Perfume, Triethanolamine, Cetearyl Alcohol (wax), Methylparaben, Propylparaben.

Lush.a.Lot’s Review: This was a great cleanser for sensitve skinned or dry skinned people. The cucumber is gentle and skin did not feel tight or dry after using this, it felt clean and moisturized.

Lush Times 2000 description: Cool as a cucumber and calm as chamomile, our gentle Spring Cleanser will soften your skin while cleaning your face. Fennel is excellent for dull or oily skins and is even rumoured to keep wrinkles at bay! Oakmoss, used as a medicine by Native Americans, adds an earthy perfume and works as a natural antiseptic. Violet leaf stimulates the circulation and is used as a remedy to relieve headaches! Use it in the morning and at night to cleanse and refresh your skin.

Mr. Punch

4 out of 5 rating

Ingredients: Water, Propylene Glycol, Rapeseed Oil, Coconut Oil, Sodium Stearate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Perfume, Gin, Juniperberries – dried, Juniperberry Oil, Blackcurrant Absolute, Lime Oil, Glycerine, Sodium Chloride, EDTA, Tetrasodium Etridronate, Sodium Hydroxide, *Geraniol, *Citronellol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Titanium Dioxide, Gardenia Extract, Colour 14700, Colour 17200, Colour 15510, Colour 42090

It smells like fruit punch!

This has the same scent as Sparkly Pumpkin bubble bar, or rather Sparkly pumpkin has the scent of Mr. Punch soap 🙂 The Sparkly Pumpkin body spray, and the sparkly pumpkin slime.

Lush Times: Celebrate Christmas with a Punch! What’s a Christmas Eve party without loads of fruity, boozy punch? Not much fun, we’d say! Packed full of gin, lime oil and blackcurrant absolute to tone the skin, this colourful soap round was inspired by all the mirth and magic of a Mexican punch bowl brimming with fresh fruit.

Marathon

5 out of 5

Mint and cinnamon. Has the scent of wiccy magic muscles massage bar and 93,000 miles jellyAs I crumbled the soft deep orange bar with a paper flag of differing countries embedded in it, I smelled a wonderfully spicy blend of what smelled to me like oranges, peppermint or eucalyptus, and some eastern Indian spices. When I got in the water, this is a bar that I could feel working on my sore muscles in seconds. The smell and the feeling of the bars ingredients reminded me of the now discontinued Lush ballistic “Fizzy O’Therapy”, which had mustard seed oil in it. But Marathon is better. During this bath I wondered if this Marathon bar had mustard oil as well and apparently so. This bar makes a very noticeable difference with regard to sore muscles and being achey.

If you’ve just run a Marathon or done any work that makes your muscles achey and sore, Marathon is a great one to have around. It reminds me of the feeling of that old nasty aching muscles rub called “Deep Heat”, not the smell but the way it made your muscles heat up in a very noticeable way? Yep. Marathon smells like…Fizzy O’Therapy ballistic. I can still feel it’s effects and it’s been an hour since I got out of the tub. It’s heating properties keep going even after the bath. Because of attractiveness, bath water color, and mostly the way it works, this bubble bar gets 4 stars from me.

Wiccy Magic Muscles massage bar. You can see all the clove seeds.

93,000 miles shower jelly

Knockout bubble bar

Notes: “Marathon” and “Wiccy Magic Muscles” cinnamon and mint massage bar are a team for sore muscles.

Non-Vegan 1.95 gbp 100 grams

Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Cream of Tartar, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Lauryl Betaine, Glycerine, Cinnamon Leaf Oil, Olive Oil, Cocoamide DEA, Peppermint Oil, Witch Hazel Extract (Hamamelis virginiana), Aloe Vera Gel, Mustard Oil, Myrrh Gum, Oilbanum Gum, Benzoin Gum, *Cinnamyl Alcohol, *Cinnamal, *Eugenol, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Limonene, *Linalool, Perfume, Gardenia Extract, Colour 59040, Colour 14700, Paper Flag.

Lush Times Summer 2006 description: Refreshing, warming minty bubbles to help you warm down after exercise. Crumble under running bath water for mounds of fragrant bubbles.

Uluru shower gel

Ingredients: Fresh Lemon Infusion (Citrus limonum), Water (Aqua) ,, Sodium Alkyl Sulfate, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Fine Sea Salt,, Glyceryl Staerat – PEG 100, Cocamide MEA, Glycol Cetearate, Perfume, Propylene Glycol, Lauryl Betaine, Organic Macadamia Nut Oil (Macadamia ternifolia), Orange Oil (Citrus Aurantium dulcis), Lemon Oil (Citrus limonum), Rosewood Oil (Aniba rosaeodora), Sandalwood Oil (Santalum spicatum) ,, Coumarin, *Limonene, Gardenia Extract (Gardenia jasminoides) ,, Colour 18050, Methylparaben, Propylparaben.

This shower gel smells just like the bath bomb.  Orange oil, sandalwood, it’s refreshing but sexy and quieting all at the same time.  I go e this a 4.5 out of 5

Phoenix

 

Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Cream of Tartar (Tartaric acid), Sodium LaurethSulfate, Lauryl Betaine, Perfume, Cocamide DEA, Cinnamon Leaf Oil(Cinnamomum cassia), Clove Leaf Oil (Eugenia caryophyllus), SandalwoodOil (Santalum album), Cinnamon Powder (Cinnamomum cassia), *Eugenol,*Cinnamal, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Limonene, Linalool. *Occurs naturally inessential oils. Vegan.

Lush description: When Lush first started out, it arose from the ashes, if you will, of the founders’ former company, Cosmetics to Go. We had a competition for a new name. Naturally loads of people chose Phoenix but most of them spelled it Phoenix.

at was this bar’s name for a while until Auntie Pamela just couldn’t stand it any longer and corrected it while no-one was paying attention. This Bubble Bar is helps you to arise from the ashes of your bad behaviour to return, refreshed to your normal self the next morning. Warming, reviving cinnamon and sandalwood help your brain to switch itself back on again. It smells rather like a cinnamon bun so don’t leave it in the kitchen. Now get the coffee on and have a bath. For mornings when you wish your brain had an ‘on’ switch.

 

Review: Ohhh…When the “Phoenix” bubble bar is dry it smells sort of like a cinnamon roll, with some cloves added. But then, in addition comes the calming scent of sandalwood (I love sandallwood). When you smoosh the Phoenix in the water, the sandalwood scent comes in behind the cinnamon/clove scent.  . What a great combination; cinnamon, clove and sandalwood. It’s a bit spicy with the cinnamon and clove, and a bit incense-y with the sandalwood. I absolutely love this bubble bar. The scent is as if Floating Island and Skinny Dip had a baby. The smell doesn’t last once in the water for more than 10 minutes. But boy what a yummy 10 minutes. I think if I had a Floating Island bath melt, the combination would be heaven. Even though the Phoenix bubble bar’s scent isn’t as strong as I’d like, I’ll still give it 4 stars because it is so different and great smelling. I would put Phoenix on my “Top Ten Lush bubble bars of all time” list.

 

Here’s a demo video i made of this bubble bar

Notes: I had a second Phoenix bubble bar tonight and I added a Lush Phoenix bath melt that I had saved. That’s what I call a “one timer” cocktail.

Here’s pic of the melt http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y181/lush-a-lot/lush%20products%202/LushPhoenixMeltDuck.jpg

The Phoenix bubble bar and melt were great together, the melt has almond oil in it so it was a nice combination for my skin too and the scent was just right, amped it up a bit. But try a Floating Island with the Phoenix bubble bar if it’s not as strong as you would like, the Floating Island adds some more sandalwood to the sandalwood already in Pheonix bubble bar, and the creaminess of the FI, makes the whole Phoenix cinnamon/sandalwood thing even creamier and yummier.

American Pie

Here’s my American Pie jelly

Lush made this in the same blend as their popular liquid hair conditioner ‘American Cream’.

It smells like a vanilla milk shake.  It’s only slightly sweet.

Review: This solid pink jelly has the scent of Lush’s “American Cream” hair conditioner. It smells even better than the hair conditioner in my opinion. I can actually smell the strawberry which isn’t as easy to pick out in the conditioner. Vanilla, lavender, sage, smells like a fresh milkshake.

Ingredients: Fresh Strawberry infusion,(Fragaria vesca,) Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Glycerine, Propylene Glycol, Perfume, Carageenan extract, Vanilla absolute (vanilla planifolia), Clary Sage oil (Salvia sclarea), Lavender oil (Lanandula hybrida), Benzoin Resinoid (Styrax benzoin), *Linalool, Coumarin, Colour 18050, Colour 77891, Methylparaben, *Occurs naturally in essential oils.

Lush description: Vanilla and Clary sage shower jelly with a scent that makes people want to lick you all over. Freeze it, chill it, use it at bathroom temperature. Crush or stroke it all over your body and hair, lather and rinse out.

Here’s video i made of this jelly.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow bath bomb

5 out of 5 rating

See my demo video below

I took this photo below which shows the Over the Rainbow bath bomb on the right.

Theres a soap and a bath bomb named Somewhere Over the Rainbow with the same scent in my picture below.

This is a beautiful, limited edition bath bomb from Lush Oxford Street in the UK.  It shares it’s scent with the Easter time Lush soap of the same name.  I love it, it’s an innocent floral with a tad of a citrus note.  Rose oil, neroli oil and orange oil.

 

file-sep-25-5-11-53-pm

This is a slow fizzing bath bomb, which i love, and which gives it the time it needs to unfurl the gorgeous rainbow of colors in the tub.

The beautiful Over the Rainbow bath bomb in my tub.

The scent is medium strong, no complaints there.  It stays on the skin a decent amount of time.

It’s not a gender-neutral scent, meaning it’s highly floral, but in a soft, pretty way.

Here are some photos I took, along with a demo and review video below.

Another shot of the Over the Rainbow soap
