Demon in the Shower gel

Demon in the Dark scent is a mint apple clove scented shower gel. Spicy apples. What a wonderful thing.

The shower gel was made years after the soap was made. The soap was a regular year round store product for many years, thenlush discontinued it to make room for new soaps. The shower gel was an exclusive Lush product only available for one day in the UK on line retail site. And the UK LushKitchen once included the shower gel in our subscription box.

Demon in the Dark soap

LushDemonIDD

Ingredients: Sodium Palm Kernelate, Glycerine, Mint Infusion, Apple Juice, Mint, Spearmint Oil, Clove Bud Oil, Peppermint, Sodium Chloride, EDTA, Tetrasodium Editronate, *Eugenol, *Limonene, Perfume, Gardenia Extract (Gardenia jasminoides), Colour 42045.* Occurs naturally in essential oils  

Yes, i once bought six bottles.

LT 2006 Description: Demon in the Dark is made with fresh, organic apple juice and an infusion of mint. This makes it stimulating for the skin and for your nose; just wait until you smell this one! Give it a big sniff and the dark green Demon gets straight up your nose and gives your head a blast of fresh, minty scent. It’s a devil of a good cleanser, with warming clove bud oil, revitalising peppermint and astringent apple. Wash your hair with Washday Greens, put on a Mask of Magnaminty and scrub up with Demon in the Dark for the Full Minty.

I took a picture of both.

Review: This is a minty and spicy shower gel with apple juice added. It smells more minty than anything, but with a spicy, clove note that goes well with the mint.  It’s both cold and hot if that makes sense.  It’s minty but not sweet minty and it’s refreshing. I think everyone should try this at least once.

There is a black covering or “rind” that can be peeled off, or you can leave it on. Lushies suggest that you put the bar in the freezer and it will be easier to peel if off.

It’s a nice spearmint soap with a lovely apple note as well.

Boogie Woogie

4.5 out of 5

I got this from the Christmas 2023 Advent Calendar. It was onky available in that and not in stores and not online….at least i think so i could be wrong.

I was surprised at how wonderful this soap smells.

Its so different looking. Kind of a psychedelic mix of tan and olive green. Not my favorite colors but omg the scent. Its yummy. A fruitiness with a bit of spice. Grapefruit, Ginger, Cinnamon, and osmanthus. Its the Jilted Elf scent.

It feels good this soap, kind of silky. Like i say i wsssurprised. This soap doesnt smell like it looks if thst makes sense. I liked it alot. i like the Jilted Elf scent

I had to have this at my bathroom sink at all times. Now it’s just a sliver of its former self and i enjoyed every wash with every bit of it.

Elf bomb bomb

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.

Bikini Bottom bubble bar

Bubbling Under bubble bar

Gary bath bomb

Mermaid bath bomb

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

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.

Sleepy bath bomb

5 out of 5 rating.

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.

Twilight

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

Lord of Misrule was one of four body lotions thst were exclusive to Lush UK. They asked us which lotions we would like them to make that theyve never made before. I absutely loved that the four that i suggested were made. I love each of these scents SO very much.

The scent is nice and strong and smells just like the lord of misrule bath bomb.

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.

I did a pretty thorough review and demo of the body lotion in a video. I was very pleased with the thicker consistency of the lotion(s). In the past sometimes exclusive lotions were very thin.

Here’s a scent family photo below. The lotion was made after i took this photo. There have been a handful of other kinds of products that Lush has made for us to buy in the last few years since this lotion was made.

Heres my video below if youd like to see the consistency, etc. I love that its a green color like the bath bomb. Sometimes when theyve made one off lotions in the past they were all white, so i appreciate the added color. 😊

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.

Minamisoma solid shower oil

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.
