Frog Spell was in the Lush October 2025 Halloween Subscription box.
Frog Spell is a minty, herbal scent. It’s not that sweet of a mint, maybe a tiny bit. I like the scent, it’s different but pleasant.
The frog spell gummy is blue and sparkly.
Frog Spell is a gummy. At first i thought it was a shower jelly like Lush always makes, but a gummy is different. I don’t know where i’ve been that i didn’t know about Lush gummies. I found out Lush has made three or four different gummy products this year. One of them is the ‘Snowy’ Christmas snowman gummy.
The gummy lathers like soap.
I like the consistency of these gummies a lot more than the Lush jellies. The gummy is so much easier to hold, because they’re firmer than the Lush jellies. These Lush gummies are the same firmness as a real gummy bear that you eat. They have some give but they’re firmer.
Because they are firmer than jelly they are so much easier to hold in the shower. The jellies are so floppy it’s hard to hold them and they tear easily and you eventually wind up with some at the bottom of the shower.
Lush Uk is making and selling 11 new fresh facial, body and haircare care products for Lushies to buy. I’m sorry but i don’t know at this time if these will be available in the USA yet. They are available on the Lush Uk app currently for Lush Club members. These products won’t be shipped until Dec 24th.
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.
The VmT-No scent is “Basma” which is made from a drink in the UK called Vimto, a berry drink.
I’ve sprayed each of them. These are just my Initial opinions:
What’s up with Candy Rain? Yeah, No. 😵💫 It doesn’t smell like the Lush Candy Rain hair conditioner i had. It smells more like just the macadamia nuts and other nuts that were in the conditioner, don’t smell the vanilla. Not on my skin anyway, your mileage may vary. 👎
Snowcake, beautiful. 👍🏼 Just as i remember it, like the spray perfume.
25:43 Beautiful smells pretty much like the 25:43 perfume i have. Lemon cheesecake 👍🏼
Black Pearl. yes. 👍🏼 It’s as good as the Lush black pearl perfume i have. Could be a tad sweeter, like the shower gel. 👍🏼
Big Blue. It’s ok, kinda gives me a headache.
VMT-No – When i first sprayed it i wasn’t sure, but…as it dries omg it smells like berry fruit punch. SO good. 👍🏼
Something in the back of my mind always wondered what currant and rose would smell like together. Ive always loved the scent and taste of currant and ive always loved the fragrance of roses. I have a red rose bush in my backyard. 😊 I love all things that Lush makes with rose and i love all things Lush makes with black currant.
I decided to buy the solid form of NoWay to Say Goodbye because i didnt want to spend $45.00 on the liquid spray bottle and then wind up not liking it. The solid was $18.00
This is a good color for this perfume because its made with currant and rose as its primary notes.
Black currantsRose
Its a push up solid perfume with a screw top.
The solid version of any perfume ive tried always lasts longer than the liquid spray.
Its smells like it’s half rose and half currant.
Black currant is what the Lush Comforter bubble bar scent is made from. The scent of this No Way to Say Goodbye isn’t quite as sweet as The Comforter. You have to like the scent of rose to like this perfume otherwise youre not going to like this.
It gets better on my skin as it dries. I wish it were just a tad sweeter and it would be SO good. As it is now its nice, i dont hate it, but i dont love it. Its not gross or anything bad on me, like i said, its nice. I’d wear it now and again but its not a perfume I’d reach for the majority of the time. If it was just a tad sweeter i would reach for it more often to wear. Id give this a 3.5 rating, because its a small bit better than average. Still, im glad i bought it.
Not to be confused with a bubble bar that Lush made for Christmas 2023 made with vanilla and peppermint called THE North Pole, which has a different scent, and…there was also a lush soap in 2006 called North Pole which was made with cocoa and peppermint.
North Pole
Vegan
Have you been planning a trip to the North Pole this Christmas? Then you’re going to need a map! So how about one that’s sweetly scented with benzoin resinoid and peppermint oil in a soap base of coconut, rapeseed and rice bran oils. All topped off with lashings of skin conditioning maple syrup. You’ll never need to stop and ask for directions again.
Made in Canada
What’s in it for you?
– Each bar has a unique design ranging from a candy cane, star, elf, train and even forest friends.
– Welcome to the North Pole, where sugary notes of peppermint candy and comforting benzoin resinoid waft through the air — scrumptious.
– The Christmas elves have been hard at work hand dusting each beautiful map with plastic-free luster, for a map that really sparkles.
– Lashings of humectant maple syrup draw moisture into the skin, leaving you feeling soft, soothed and hydrated.
Review: Initially i was disappointed to learn that this wasnt the same scent as the previous North pole soap made by Lush in 2006, with Peppermint Oil, Cocoa Absolute, Cedarwood Oil, and Cypress Oil. But its not. However after i used this soap i found that i liked it. Its got a nice peppermint scent along with lemongrass, lime, labdanum, and benzoin. I enjoyed washing with it and looked forward to my next shower with it. This isnt as sweet as tge other two things lush has mad called North pole. This is minty but with some citrus and its got an earthy note too.
Its pretty too with a shimmery copper colored design on it.
Lush has made this festive Christmas 2025 shower gel in previous years. They wanted to make something like fizzy champagne that one would celebrate with, or even fizzy grapefruit soda.
They created this with orange oil, and lime oil, and at one point cognac brandy, although they stopped putting cognac in it.
This version called Merry Christmas Everyone also has cranberry added. I’ve always liked this scent in whatever form it was throughout the years, but i wasn’t crazy about it like everyone else. That has changed with this version and the addition of cranberry. I LOVE this. It smells so good, like a festive fruit punch. Now i’ve given it a 5 out of 5 rating.
This was made in the Lush ‘Celebrate’ scent. Some of you long time Lushies will remember this as ‘Champagne Snow Showers’. Lush has made so many products in this scent over the years. Bath bombs, dusting powders, lotions, etc.
small $11.50
medium $24.00
large $36.00
Lush has made another Christmas 2025 product in the same scent. A bath bomb called ‘Golden Wonder’. Golden Wonder has been a classic Christmas bath bomb for many years.
Lush products made many products in this scent. I made a list:
Shade is packed with gorgeous essential oils that give it a warm, comforting scent. Sandalwood oil is extracted from protected and sustainable trees and blended in to give this fragrance its warm and woody note, while olibanum and guaiacwood oils round it out with a little grounding and a little floral, so its scent on skin is just a little different, but oh-so-perfect on everyone. Made in United Kingdom.
I bought the 30ml Shade spray perfume
Some of you remember that i absolutely love sandalwood. I also love frankincense. When i saw thst Shade perfume had both, i HAD to buy it.
I also bought the solid perfume and the wash card.
I bought this approximately 2 years ago and just never reviewed it nor put it here in my lush blog.
This perfume did not disappoint. It smells as good or actually better than i imagined it would. Its more a unisex scent. Its warm and comforting, even meditative. It’s not lost on me that i have sandalwood incense and frankincense incense that i like to burn when feeling meditative. This fragrance is somehow slightly sensual as well. Its only ever so slightly sweet. Its got a note, probably the frankincense, that seems slightly like a fruity floral note, yet i wouldn’t call this fragrance floral, nor fruity, nor green. Its woody but in the best and beautiful way.
How can something smell grounding but airy at the same time. Im not sure but that’s what i get when i wear Shade.
It has great throw, and nice staying power on my skin. I like to wear a bit of the solid on my forearms after showering at night so i can smell it while i lie down and go to sleep.
The Hanukkah 2025 ‘Menorah’ bath melt has the shade scent.
