my Lush shower with Plum Rain shower jelly, Candy Rain conditioner, Silica shampoo

i will add an entry in my blog for each of these three products after i complete writing this page about using them in my shower today.

Plum Rain jelly is a Lush Uk ‘Community Favorite’ product. Lush Uk created six fun shower jellies made from the fragrances and ingredients of some of our favorite Lush products. During the first week of March lush made Yog Nog jelly, Plum Rain jelly, 29 High Street’, Golden Pear, Yummy Mummy, and The Comforter.

Plum Rain shower gel is one of my favorite Lush shower gels, so i was excited to buy a jelly made in this same scent.

The scent isn’t as sweet as the shower gel. it’s a bit more bitter, more like the Plum Rain body spray. It’s good though. Nice and fruity with that great plum-y scent. i just wish it were sweeter.

I like the shower gel more

The exclusive Lush ‘Candy Rain’ hair conditioner.

Oh my. In my haul video of all five new Lush Labs conditioners, i describe Candy Rain as being my favorite smelling of the 5 new exclusive Lush Labs hair conditioners. It smells like a vanilla milkshake. It smells like American Cream SHOULD smell like. Yum. it’s made with cashew cream, macadamia nut oil, brazil nut milk, coconut cream, almond essential oil, cocoa absolute, tonka absolute.

I was amazed that it handled my crazy hair. I’m SO impressed with this conditioner. While it doesn’t smell like candy exactly it does smell good to drink with a straw.

I would rate this a 5 out of 5 rating.

I bought all four of the exclusive Lush Labs, this pink one called Silica smells like mint, tarragon and thyme. All three of these are herbs. Therefore i can see why this is a primarily herbal scent, bit of a woody note.

Silica is made for hair that is colored.

List of ingredients

it’s not my favorite smelling of the bunch. that said, this does indeed have a nice scent.

I was expecting the scent of this one to have more of a yummy factor, or floral. i expected it to smell like pink berries or pink flowers or something reminiscent of pink i guess. nonetheless i was impressed with just how well this worked on my colored hair!

Fantabulosa

5 out of 5 rating

Oi, darling, varda a new smellie? This intriguing, sophisticatedly sweet bananary perfume is sure to take your fancy. Unique, chic and unforgettable – it’s one to wear.

Originally a Be Never Too Busy To Be Beautiful perfume, released under a different name in 2004.

This fragrance used to be called ‘Ladyboy’ when Lush was called ‘B Never Too Busy to be Beautiful ‘. It is made with oak moss, seaweed, violet, and some note that is banana-ish.

Lush has made three violet forward perfumes.

Tuca Tuca, Ladyboy/Fantabulosa, and V.

Fantabulosa does have an undernote of mossiness because of the oak moss and seaweed oils in it.

I would describe this scent as a fruity floral, with primary violet note, and it’s a sweet violet, but not as sweet as Lush other violet perfume Tuca Tuca.

The yellow solid bybble bar inthe shape of a perfume bottle is also called ‘Fantabulosa’, and has the samescent as the Fantabulosa perfume and the Lush Ladyboy perfume. Notice the both have a banana on them.

This scent was originally made for men and women. one of Lush first unisex scents. It was wildly popular. lush made a soap, shower gel, etc of this scent.

Fabulosa is a fairly long lasting fragrance as well, staying on my skin a good amount of time before reapplication was necessary.

If you like unusual scents that are sweet, or even if you love violet, you’ll enjoy Fantabulosa.

Here’s a video i made describing the scent in depth.

Lush North America New bath bombs! 89 (54) limited edition bombs

Lush’s New “biggest store in the world”, Lush Liverpool store released 300 new Lush products, and Lush new concept store in Harajuku Japan have released 89 bath bombs.

Lush USA are releasing 54 of 89 new bath bombs online on March 29, 2019.

Ive used 25 of them because Lush International (Uk) had them at the annual 2018 Lush Creative Showcase where i bought them, so i can add my reviews of those here this week to help you decide.

I asked Lush President/owner/inventor Mark Constantine about it since so many people are asking me about it and i wasnt aware of it.

Mark stated ‘We are celebrating the thirtieth Birthday of Mo’s invention. 1989 was the year so we will be selling 89 bath bombs.”

Each shop manager gets to chose which ones they stock.

While Mark says he assumes all will be available on the US website, im understanding from some Lushies who received bath bombs in a press package that there will be 54 bombs, not the whole 89.

Color me surprised that Lush USA are doing something like this for customers.

I’ll have to take out a loan- but ill be getting all the 25 bombs that I haven’t tried yet.

Im trying to find out how long they will be online. Ill put that info here when i get it.

Ill look all over social media to gather all the bath bombs names and add them here in alphabetical order. Then of course ill add my demos and reviews when they go on sale, i buy them and they deliver them to my house.

Keep watching here as i update continually over the next week or more.

Golden Pear jelly

5 out of 5 rating (in my opinion)

Please know-my husband and my daughter seperately did NOT like this jelly 🙂

As i said, and showed, in my haul video the consistency of this is perfect. Its firm and solid, not broken nor mushy. And Its gold! Straight away i can smell the strong scent of pears! It’s a stronger pear scent than in the soap even!

I can smell each of the ingredients; pear puree, cardamom, orange and just a smidge of sandalwood. Mostly i smell pear. My husband and daughter interpret this real pear smell to be similar to a paint smell. No matter how hard i try all i smell is pear. This wild swing in scent descriptions is similar to the mystery of the Great pyramids. Most of the time i can get why some things smell different to people. All I smell a vat full of juicy, sweet pears.

The color is golden all the way through. It leaves NO gold color whatsoever anywhere on your skin.

I literally like this jelly scent more than the golden pear soap, bomb, or body spray. I didn’t expect to like this so much to be honest.

As far as use i would use the bath bomb before i would reach for the jelly. But that said- im loving using this jelly.

Just a small note: golden pear jelly is not as creamy/conditioning as the Yummy mummy jelly.

Angel’s Delight


£3.90 200gs

Discontinued Christmas soap

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Propylene Glycol, Sodium Palm Kernelate, Sodium Stearate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Perfume, Titanium Dioxide, Tangerine Oil (Citrus reticulata), Orange Oil, Glycerine, Sodium Chloride, EDTA, Tetrasodium Editronate, Gardenia Extract (Gardenia Jasminoides), *Limonene, *Linalool, Colours 18050 and 42045, Silver Sparkles (Polyethylene terephthalate), Golden Powder (Lustre Gold Sparkle).*Occurs naturally in essential oils.

Review: Fruit Punch! Or even watermelon. That’s exactly what this charming soap smells like. I’m in love with it. It’s impossible to feel dreary when using this fushia, purple and orange colored soap. If you’re lucky enough to get a piece from the top of the big slab, there are golden shimmery moons and lilac colored stars and all kinds of technicolor delights. Also see, Lush “Golden Moon” soap below.

Description: Why do angles come down to earth at Christmas? To get their fruity soap like everyone else does. Our fruity,sparkly, limited edition special hand and body soap tones and twinkles your skin to make you feel like an angel even if you haven’t been behaving like one. Its fruity scent has been likened to Jelly babies. Each year it looks slightly different but smells just as gorgeous. Get your slice of this year’s batch.

Here’s a special shaped one that was available in a Christmas 2006 gift set.

Yummy Mummy jelly

5 out of 5 rating

Lush Uk have created 9 Community Favorites shower jellies.

Community favorites means; Lush asked us what our favorite product/scents are. Then they took the top nine answers with the most votes, and they made those nine into shower jellies!

Five of these jellies have not been made before. Three of these; Twilight, Sweetie Pie, Calacas have been made previously.

Yummy mummy is one of the scents that won and that Lush made a jelly of. I for one am SO glad because its one that i wouldve voted for. I have seven bottles of Yummy Mummy shower gel. And i once bought twenty Roller bath bombs. So i REALLY love this fruity, carmely scent.

Yummy mummy is made with strawberry puree, orange oil, tonka bean.

It smells like a strawberry shake.

This is what i originally imagined American Cream to smell like. Lol.

It took an enormous amount of control to buy only one pot of Yummy Mummy shower jelly.

Shower jellies can be used as soap, either whole, sliced, chopped up or frozen.

They can also be used as shampoo. And they can be used to get nice bath foam in the tub by holding it in your hand underneath the waterspout.

I used it whole, which i never do, and it worked really well. I was able to hold onto it without it dropping but your mileage may vary.

I washed with this and it smelled nice and strong. Its creamy like the Yummy Mummy shower cream.

It made a regular amount of creamy but foamy lather, not too much and not too little.

It didnt fall apart or anything. I just put it back in the pot when i was done showering with it.

Lush are selling these in the large size so this will last for months.

It has a 14 month expiry date.

Lush new ‘Cocktail Sieve’ exclusive bath bomb

5 out of 5 star rating.

WoW! What a great idea!

My 4 minute video of my bath with this Gorgeous, pink and silver glittery bomb!

Made with the cocktail perfume scent: rose, jasmine, ylang ylang.

I explain what scent family this is in my video.

Wild Butterfly

5 out of 5 rating

Lush has introduced three beautiful bath bombs for Spring 2019. it’s a new design which they made for their new concept store in Harajuku Japan.

For Spring 2019 Lush has made three colors. Of the three i like the scent of purple and blue one the most, then the green one, then the orange one in that order.

I love the gorgeous sunset colored bath art that this Wild Butterfly makes.

See my 2 minute bath video with this gorgeous thing below. I describe the scent in detail in my video. 🙂

Lamb Bomb Bomb

5 out of 5 rating. It shouldnt be, but it just is. 🙂

Lush made two more of these double bomb type products for Spring 2019. As you recall Lush Introduced these new style of bath bombs during Christmas 2018.

This Spring Lush brought out two cuties which can be used for two baths.

Talk about being too cute to use! You have my heart little lamb.

As some of you know-when i demo bath products i always use the entire thing in one go. because that way i can show you what each component of the product does. However i just Couldn’t dump his cute little lamb-y head into the water. I want to look at him more. Makes me wish i got two.

When i review things i don’t look at any other reviews of the products, because i don’t want any of that to influence me in my review. I also don’t read the ingredients list for the same reason until after i use it.

So the first time i places this cute puffball looking sheep near my nose i smelled .. Marshmallow! Oh thank you scent Gods!

After using it i looked at the ingredients list. Cocoa and peppermint. YES.

To have a bath bomb which doesn’t color the water be a ‘5’ rating shows just how great feeling, and great smelling this product is.

If Lush made a perfume out of this scent no one would be happier than I. ❤️

I’m not going to lie…i rubbed this marshmallow creme stuff all over my face.

I watched myself do this as if from a distance, while asking myself ‘how old are you?’.

I didn’t listen for the answer. I was too busy being delighted at the feel of it.

See my bath demo below

Coco Scrub

3 out of 5 rating. See my 4 minute Sink Demo Video below.

If it wasn’t so cute i would’ve given it a 1 or 2.

my video shows and explains the difficulty in use. It’s just not pleasant.

I Guess we can’t love every single thing. ✌🏼❤️
