Barbie Bath
5 out of 5 rating
See my 1 minute Tub Demo Video below
When i opened the box of lush thst i bouggt, the smell was incredible. This bath bomb is partly responsible for the scrummy aroma wafting out of the box.
Lush has collabed with Barbie for the Barbie movie that just came out.
This bath bomb has a cocoa butter heart, its a naturally pink colored cocoa called ruby cocoa. It also has coconut milk, and coconut cream, and then it has Tonka as well, tonka always smells to me like a light creamy vanilla caramel.
The Lush Barbie bath bomb is a slow, foamy pink fizzer, with silver shimmer in the bomb and in the water.
Damp Squid
I Would give this a 5 out of 5 rating because its really cute, it works well without drying my skin, it smells great and the scent lasts.
They created this before they called themselves ‘Lush’, when they were a company called Cosmetics To Go in the 90’s.
It has the scent of ylang ylang flower, patchouli, lemongrass and Ho wood. It smells like an expensive mens cologne or something. I love the scent.
Also, the scent has somestaying power after you use it which i like.. Be advised though this bomb doesnt have any color. it doesnt color the water. its a fast fizzer and dissolves quickly.
in 2023 Lush UK made an exclusive one day only shower jelly using the Damp Squid scent!
Bikini Bottom
This is a product exclusive to the July Subscription box. During July 2023 Lush partnered with Spongebob on a collab and Lush has made 9 items in total. 6 of the 9 are being sold on a limited time basis on their website, and 3 of them were made for the July subscription box.
Bikini Bottom is so pretty with red and purple swirls, and a light dusting of silver on top.
Bikini Bottom has the same yummy scent as ‘Pineapple’ body balm that is sold on the website.
This absolutely yummy scent reminds me of a coconut pineappke and banana milk shake. Its made with Davana oil and Tonka.
This bubble bar makes a pretty red-ish water with loads of bubbles. The scent is so good.
I would rate this bubble bar a 5 out of 5 rating.
Heres a Tub Demo Vid i made of Bikini Bottom being used.
Lush Kitchen Subscription Box July 2023
Lush has joined Spongebob Squarepants on a Collab. Lush has created 9 products in total; 6 products being sold on their website, and 3 made for their monthly subscription box for July 2023.
Patrick soap
Trichomania coconut solid shampoo bar
Firstly, what a great smelling box!
I smell a scrumptious tropical fruit combination.
A pleasant surprise to discover that Lush made a couple of rare products that fit into this month’s spongebob collab!
I think the best smelling item in this box is the Bikini Bottom bubble bar on a stick. Smells like a banana cocobut milkshake. Its made with davana oil and tonka. and its subtley sparkly with red and purple.
Here is my 10 minute unboxing video with scent descriptions.
When including these 3 exclusive spongebob subscription box products there are 9 spongebob products in total that Lush has made this month for the collab.
1 Patrick bath bomb
1 Patrick soap
1spongebob bath bomb
1 spongebob soap
1 Squidward bubble bar
1 Bikini Bottom bubble bar
1 Gary bath bomb
1 Krabby Patty
1 Pineapple body balm
Squid Games shower jelly
5 out of 5 rating see my demo video below
Its a large size jelly in the shape of a squid.
It has the scent of ylang ylang flower, patchouli, lemongrass and Ho wood. It smells like an expensive mens cologne or something. I love the scent.
Also, the scent has somestaying power after you use it which i like.
I Would give this a high rating because its really cute, it works well without drying my skin, it smells great and the scent lasts.
Its scent is from another product that Lush made before they called themselves Lush, when they were a company called Cosmetics To Go in the 90’s. The product was called ‘Damp Squid’ and it was a bath bomb.
I still have my old pictures of my Damp Squid bath bomb.
Demo Video
Sleepy bath bomb
This is one of many products only available in the Christmas 2021 Advent Calendar gift set.
Lush Uk had a Sleepy pop up event in September October 2021 time frame. They had many exclusive Sleepy products not available in stores. This Sleepy bomb was one of them. Lush Uk decided to add it to the Christmas Advent Calendar gift set as an exclusive amongst all the other goodies in the calendar gift set.
See below for my 3 minute Tub Demo Video.
Sleepy bomb reminds me of the Lush Uk ‘Sleeping Giant’ bath bomb. I think Sleepy bomb is a miniature version of it.
This Sleepy bomb has such a gorgeous periwinkle blue color! 😍
Sleepy is a quiet, slow melting kind of bomb, not the fast fizzing type.
It looks like some kind of melting blackberry dessert doesn’t it? 😊
There’s a bit of very dark blue almost black color inside the bath bomb that’s surprising.
There are multiple colors in here, violet, lilac, black, gold. Lots of bath art opportunities 😄
The gold is actually shimmery stuff. And the gold shimmer gets dispersed in the purple water and it’s just beautiful.
I’d rate this a 5 out of 5 rating.
These aren’t like the Lush halloween 2021 products which glow under UV light. These are glow in the dark. Here is what the stars and moon look when you turn off the lights.
Some folks were asking me what these moon and stars are made out of. Many folks thought they were a bath melt as i did, but they are made out of what feels like plastic. They don’t melt.
This above is ‘Twilight’ bath bomb sold in Lush stores. The ‘Sleepy’ bomb is the same scent. Both made with floral Ylang Ylang , Sweet creamy Tonka bean, and Bright herbal Lavendar. I asked the creator Alessandro and he stated that ‘Yes. They are the same scent’, just different names. Not complaining. I’d love to use both of these in a bath cocktail. Unfortunately there is only one in the Advent Calendar gift set.

Merry Christmas shower gel
5 out of 5 rating
See my 4 minute Up close sink demo where i wash my hands with it and you can see how much lather it has, how thick it is, etc.
Lush has created three new Christmas shower gels this year which are different than anything theyve made before. One of them is only available in the Christmas 2021 Advent Calendar Gift. There are 6-8 exclusive Christmas products only available in the Advent calendar.
Merry Christmas shower gel is quite a surprise to me. There are so many things about it that i like.
The color is a rich red, and it has gold sparkles in it. They settle at the bottom but i just shake it up to distribute the sparkke all throughout the shower gel.
Goodness. It looks like a ruby in the sun.
The scent is another surprise. It smells like a cherry. A chocolate covered cherry. It has a scent very similar to the Lush ‘Cherryish’ bodyscrub.
The ingredients are Aloe, Cocoa Absolute (chocolate), and Almond Oil. Its no wonder it smells like cherry.
The consistency is nice and thick.
I wish it was a bigger size. I love it.
It is pretty sweet. Some might find it too sweet. I dont find this to be the case. But i like things like Lush ‘Happy Blooming’ scent, which some find too sweet.
I pray that Lush will make this as an ‘in stores and online’ shower gel next Christmas.
Heres a video showing the consistency, lather, etc
Lord of Misrule body lotion
5 out of 5
Lush Uk made these exclusive lotions that they’ve never made before a couple of years ago around 2018.
The lord of Misrule lotions smells exactly like the shower gel and bath bomb. Made with Vanilla, Patchouli, and Black Pepper. Yummy.
I made a video showing it below. In the video i showed exactly how thick it is.
Here’s a scent family photo below. The lotion was made after i took this photo.
The Lakes
4 out of 5 rating
This is a new exclusive bath bomb made for the August 2021 Lush Kitchen Subscription box.
Lush New Exclusive bath bomb ‘The Lakes’.
Inspired by Taylor Swift.
This has a brand new scent. It’s an earthy, incensed, green scent made with osmanthus, oak moss, myrrh, and siberian fir needle.
It’s a slow, melty foamy bomb. It’s a mint green with flecks of pink in it and fine silver shimmer in it.
The scent stays on my skin long after i dry off and get dressed. It’s a subtlety earthy, sensual scent.
I like this bomb. It’s a different color for Lush and a different scent. It’s not a sweet scent but an earthy green one. Kind of like the classic lush green scents.
Here’s a link to my tub demo 😊
Squeak
4 out of 5 rating
See my demo video below
Made with big chunks of sea salt and lots of yummy tropical fruits such as mango, papaya, pineapple, lemon, and kiwi. Smells even more fruity and delicious than Lush I Love Juicy shampoo.
It’s a thick consistency, sort of like the consistency of Big liquid shampoo. I attached a vid to show the texture.
This is made for fine, limp hair and oily i normal hair. It’s not for my dry, thick, wavy hair.
After using it I can totally see how this woukd make thin hair thicker. It works well for that.
A little goes a long way. I have long hair. You have to make sure you rinse your hair well to get the small salt chunks out of your hair. It smells so good.
This was a surprise in the Lush July 2021 subscription box.
Have you tried it? Do you like it? Or not so much?
I wonder if Lush will have it in stores for the general public or if it will stay an exclusive one time thing.
Here is my video
Avocado No-Wash
Lush ‘Avocado No-Wash body lotion
This has never been made for the public. Lush, Mark Constantine let us vote for which community favorites product we would like in a body lotion in 2018.
Its up for the vote for the Lush Kitchen September 2021 Subscription Box.
5 out of 5 rating for scent and 3 out of 5 rating for performance.
It was made in rhe wonderful ‘Avocado Co Wash’ solid shampoo scent.
The scent is a tart lime scent with a nice sweet note in it. It’s quite a big burst of a lime-y fragrance made with sweet, fruity bergamot oil, fragrant incense-y yet citrussy frankincense (olibanum), and the lemony litsea cubeba herb.
There is the addition of avocado, which is moisturizing and softening for skin and hair.
I like other products in this scent more than the body lotion. Its SO conditiining that it takes along time for it to dry on my skin so i can handle my camera or phone without getting them covered with lotion.
I loved the Melusine bath bomb, the shower gel and then the Minamisoma shower oil the most.
Karma shower jelly
Never made for the public, this has only originally been made in 2006 for uk forum members, and made in the Lush Kitchen a couple of times in 2014 and 2016. Its up for the vote for the September 2021 Lush subscription box.
5 out of 5 rating
If you like the Karma scent this jelly will make you happy.
Its strong with the classic orange oil, patchouli, lemon grass, and pine scent of Karma.
Its a red orange color with no sparkles.
I usually cut some up, put it in a small plastic kitchen seive and hold it under the falling water and it makes tons of karma scented bubbles in the tub.
I added a Karma scent famy (which is one of the biggest scent families) on the last photo, and there are four more newer products missing from the photo already!
White Noise
See my tub demo video below.
Lush has collaborated with ASOS to make an exclusive bath bomb.
This bath bomb was included as an exclusive in the June 2021 Lush Kitchen Subscription box.
It’s a frenetic pattern of blue, green, gray and white.
The scent is highly citrussy. Its the same scent as the Lush ‘Kitsume’ bath bomb.
It’s not sweet at all. It kind of reminds me of the Avobath bomb with its lemongrass scent, but this White Noise bomb is even more citrussy than that.
This isn’t one of those slow dissolving, melty bath bombs with multi colored foamy bath art. This is one of those fast fizzing bath bombs.
It’s got lots of nice gray silver glitter that dissolves into the water.
The end color is a gray blue bath water with gray silver glitter.
I enjoyed it. It’s different in action, looks and scent. While it’s not my favorite scent it’s nice.
i’d rate this a 3 or 4 out of 5 rating.

Yog Nog body lotion
3 out of 5 rating
Created exclusively (along with five other lotions that we voted on) in 2015 for the previous incarnation of the Lush Kitchen. Never sold to the public. I remember buying 3 at that time.
Up for the vote for the July 2021 Lush subscription box.
Unfortunately, especially because i am around photography and video equipment a lot, it was way too greasy for my skin. I left greasy spots all over every table that i sat at for dinner, it left a greasy residue on everything i touched. Wonderful smell! But i just couldn’t use it, so i held a giveaway and gave away the other two unopened pots i had bought.
I like the Yog Nog body milk much more as it’s not so thick and oily as the lotion in the pot.
Infra Wig
4 out of 5 rating
see my 2 minute video of its consistency below
New for Spring 2021 in the Lush UK has introduced ‘Infra Wig’ soft styling gel. They’ve also introduced a second hair gel called just ‘Wig’, but they were out of ‘Wig’ when i was on the website.
Lush UK says Infra Wig is a ‘no crunch’ toning gel for white or gray hair. Gray or white hair, natural gray or dyed gray, has a tendency to turn yellowish depending on environmental factors.
Orange, Grapefruit, Vanilla, Lemon Myrtle, Tonka.
It has the scent of the Lush exclusive ‘Hair Dresser’s Husband’ spray perfume from 2010. Recently Lush UK rereleased this perfume in newly designed bottles.
I just took a pic of the Lush Hair Dressers Husband scent family.
Lush says you can use this on wet or dry hair, and it’s best to comb through hair but you can use your hands if you want.
i used it. It didn’t make my hair crunchy which is good.
Smugglers Soul Facial scrub
4 out of 5 rating
See my demo and description and review video
Outback Mate bubble bar
5 out of 5 rating
See my 2 minute Tub Demo below
The Lush Kitchen subscription box for the month of November 2021.
This has the great scent of the Lush Outback Mate soap that Lush sells in their stores and online.
It’s made with Eucalyptus, Peppermint and Lemongrass.
I love how strong it is, fills up my whole bathroom with its lovely scent.
I love the blue water.
No Glitter. And this isn’t a reusable type of bubble bar, it’s a regular squishy type of Lush bubble bar.

Botanomancy bubble bar
5 out of 5 rating
See my 3 minute Tub Demo Video below 😊
Legendary belle Ninon de Lenclos was said to soak in a blend of beautifying herbs to maintain her youthful vigour. You can invoke a little herbal alchemy of your own by drawing a bath full of pimento berry, peppermint and rose petals to quell agitation and promote wellbeing. Take a truly sensorial dip in woodsmoky waters perfumed with patchouli, sandalwood and cannabidiol oils to escape stress.
How to use:
Crumble under the hot water tap to conjure up clouds of bubbles, and steep in peaceful evergreen waters. If you’d like to follow Madam de Lenclos’ precise example, she advised resting 15 minutes in the magic water and thinking virtuous thoughts.
This product contains cannabidiol, commonly known as CBD oil, for its non-intoxicating relaxing qualities. The raw material is made of 10% CBD mixed with 90% Hemp Oil. This in turn is used at a percentage that provides 25mg of CBD per 200g item. You can find out more here.

I love the scent of this. It’s like a dark green forest. It’s a comforting scent. Grounding.
cbd doesn’t work for everybody, but it does for me. Using this in the bath completely took my pain away.
To those Old Skool Lushies, this reminds me of Lush Tramp shower gel, but with no patchouli.
I love the dark green water.
As of December 2021 there is a new massage bar and a new perfume in this same fragrance.
