Ro’s Argan Gourmet soap

5 out of 5 rating

This is the most fragrant Lush soap i’ve ever used. It’s sweet and floral. like rose candy. I will say this is also the most moisturizing soap i’ve ever had from any company, Lush or otherwise. 👍🏼

When Lush opened their first Superstore in 2014 in the gorgeous area of London called Oxford Street it was a magical new three story building with Lush introducing 300+ new, innovative product. Some were to be exclusive to that store abd some would be introduced in all Lush stores about a year later.

Five of those innovative new products were gourmet soaps: Olive Tree, Mallorcan, Ro’s Argan, and i’ll try to remember what the other two are called.

How to use:

This soothing and hydrating argan oil soap, with its heady Turkish rose absolute aroma, builds a gel-like lather. Cleanse and rinse for lasting softness.

How to store:

Made from argan oil hand-harvested by Berber women’s village co-operatives in Agadir, Morocco, store in a cool, dry place.

Argan Oil (Argania spinosa), Water (Aqua), Glycerine, Granulated Sugar, Sodium Hydroxide, Perfume, Lemon Oil (Citrus limonum), Geranium Oil (Pelargonium graveolens), Pakistani Rose Absolute (Rosa damascena), Rose Oil (Rosa damascena), Citric Acid, Sodium Bicarbonate, *Limonene, Citronellol, Coumarin, Geraniol, Red and Y

Madame Butterfly

This one in my picture below is from when it was remade in the lush kitchen. It was originally a limited edition product. Not a year long in store product.

This bubble bar has the rose jam scent.

*occurs naturally in essential oils

Lush Times: Madame Butterfly has the same gorgeous scent as the Rose Jam Bubbleroon – a sophisticated Turkish delight fragrance of rose and lemon. Rose absolute and oil to help improve skin’s appearance and to perfume skin and hair and of course to make the most of its aphrodisiac effect. Geranium oil has a sweet, beautifully floral and slightly sharp fragrance. It is thought to have a balancing effect on the nervous system, oil production and circulation. Finally, zesty lemon; toning and brightening on the skin, uplifting and makes a zesty top note in our fragrances.

Here’s a video demo and review that i made for you showing this bubble bar and what the water looks like.

Following the wonderful popularity of Magic Wand for Christmas, we’ve got three more just for Mother’s Day. They make wonderful gifts for your dear old ma; she can get at least 6 baths out of each wand! Tell her to put her feet up while you run her a nice warm bath, swish her chosen bubble bar around in the water, then tell her to enjoy a nice long soak while you do the washing up. Super!


Simply turn on your bath taps and swish it around in the water for a few seconds – or until you’ve got enough bubbles in your tub. Then pop it on the side to use another time – these look particularly nice in a vase on the side. It goes rock hard until you’re ready to use it again – how many baths will you get out of it? Here’s the important part – before you get in, make sure you have a watering can or jug to hand. Then once you’ve finished wallowing in the lovely waters, you can dip your jug into the bath, scoop up some of that nutrient filled water and water all your plants around the house and garden (just remember to put a dressing gown on first if you go outside!)

Madame Butterfly comes with a name tag that’s rather special – it’s got seeds embedded in the paper! Just dig a little hole in your garden or in a soil-filled pot and pop the tag in whole. Give it a drink of water and sit back and let nature take its course. You’ll be rewarded with some lovely wild flowers to bring a little colour to your garden this summer.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow soap

5 out of 5 rating

my sink demo of this soap is below

Troubles melt like ice in the hot sun when you lather up with this uplifting neroli soap. Let its rich and fruity perfume put your mood on cloud 9 and pop you back on your feet. Sunny citrus oils like mandarin and neroli tone and brighten the skin and leave you feeling fresh and fragrant. A dash of Turkish rose keeps things sweet and adds a flirty floral note to this sunny sudser.
