Sleep massage bar

5 out of 5 rating

See my Demo Vid below

I rub some on my forearms every night before bed and it smells like Heaven.

sleep

“Relax into a creamy Sleepy-scented massage, with chamomile essence water and super absorbent marula oil for soft skin. Better sleep and less stress are both associated with a regular rub-down. Why not team with the rest of the Sleepy family?”

I’m in total love with this new bar. It has everything we like about the Sleepy/Twilight scent, but turned up. The bar really brings out its creamy, sweet quality. I love it when a Lush scent meets the perfect product for it, so that it becomes the best way that the scent can possibly smell. 👍🏼

From Lush Oxford Street. All of the Lush massage bars have been redesigned a wee bit.

How to use:
Think of this as a solid massage oil, the butters and oils are designed to melt at body temperature so hold the bar between your hands to start melting before gliding over your skin, or someone else’s…

How to store:
Keep this cool and dry, the ideal place is a Lush tin until you are ready to indulge in a home spa treatment, or your skin is in need of a boost of hydration.

Melt warning:
This product is made with ingredients that allow it to soften around body temperature. During hot spells, it may melt. If you have any concerns please contact Customer Care.

Choco La La

Upcoming for the vote for inclusion in the Feb 2021 Lush Kitchen subscription box

Ingredients: Dark Chocolate, Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Orange Oil, Sandalwood Oil, Violet Leaf Absolute, Perfume.

Lush Times description: It IS real orange, sandalwood and violet leaf scent that are put into Choco La La and not ‘plastic’; as some of people have commented. They probably don’t realize that many of the scents they think are ‘natural’ are made in test tubes. If you try out this massage bar, you will experience the incomparable feeling of warmed cocoa butter and chocolate being smoothed into the skin, smell the revitalizing orange oil, the sandalwood to encourage relaxation and violet leaf to remember how to enjoy your sensuality. Do you get it? Perhaps it may be a little messy but it does wash out of your sheets and linen. Tap into your sense of adventure!

This is definitely one of my favorite lush massage bars. It looks like a little fancy chocolate dessert. It smells of chocolate (real chocolate smell, not fake chocolate) and violet leaf absolute (DaddyO, Bathos, Retread) It’s grittier than a lot of bars. It harder to rub in to your partners skin too, so you have to rub it in longer to get the brown chocolate in the skin. I give this 4 stars.

I took a photo of all the Lush chocolates below 😊

There have been two additions since i took this photo: ‘Holy Cacao!’ Gourmet soap, ‘Bunny’ body scrub, ‘Posh Chocolate’ body scrub, and ‘Walter Bunny’ body bar.

Here’s a short demo video and review i made of Lush Choco La La bar

Heavanilli

5 out of 5 rating

Lush Times: Sweet delicious Vanilla Fountain fragrance – tonka bean, jasmine and heaps of vanilla absolute. At the time of writing, we’ve not had the chance to put this to a real live test; we’ve used it on our arms in the creative team meeting, sniffed it with enthusiasm and longing, but as yet, we haven’t been able to take them home with us, smooth them all over our lovers’ bodies to see what happens next. Heavanilly’s melty butters smell of sensual jasmine, vanilla and tonka – and cinder toffee – so we can guess.

Ingredients: Cocoa Butter, Fair Trade Shea Butter, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Perfume, Vanilla Absolute, Jasmine Absolute, Tonka Absolute, Hydroxycitronellal, Gardenia Extract, Colour 73360

I love this massage bar. Out of the 60 or so different Lush massage bars, Heavanilli is one of my favorites. Its made in the Lush ‘Vanillary’ perfume fragrance. Lush has made many products with this popular perfume scent.

I would recommend it. I enjoy using it and Its one that i would buy again and again.

I took a photo below of some Vanillary scent family members 😊

The Big Banana

3.5 out of 5 rating. See my demo and review video below.

This has its own new scent which is made with almond essential oil, ylang ylang flower oil, orange oil, clove bud oil, and mashed banana. Along with shea butter and other skin moisturizing goodies to add the proper amount of slip for a massage.

I am living for the various fruit shaped products that Lush have been making and selling exclusively since Sept 2018

The Big Banana has a nice smell. It doesnt smell like banana runts candy. Its a light, more natural banana scent.

The consistency is oily.

Its not like sympathy for the skin in scent which is more earthy imo.

here is my video i recorded for you which helps explain the scent and shows the consistency.

Vertical Abhyanga

5 out of 5 rating

see my video of six of these new shower oils below.

Vertical Abhyanga is made with the same fragrance ingredients as their ‘Soft Touch’ body butter bar. The Soft Touch has always been one of my desert island lush product so I’m ecstatic that Lush made something else in this HEAVENLY sweet, spiced cardamom scent. Oh. My. God.

I’ll be recording a demo & review video of mine in the next week April 16-20.

Melt My Heart

This was a limited edition Massage bar from Valentine’s years ago. 3 out of 5 rating. See below for my demo video of this.

This was made in the Lush ‘Jungle’hair conditioner scent. So it has Shea Butter, Fresh Avocado Extract, Fresh Bananas, Fresh Passion Fruit, Fresh Kumquat, Ylang Ylang Oil, Vetivert Oil, Cypress Oil, Sandalwood Oil, Chlorophyll.

Here’s a video demo i made for you showing it close up.

Green Coconut

See my demo video below 🙂

The scent of this is full on coconut. It’s Very creamy. And VERY moisturizing. And certainly less clean up than my Dark Arts jelly bomb was. Though the Dark Arts was more fun, this was more yummy, nourishing and relaxing if that makes sense. It’s not the same scent as Yellow Submarine, that’s a fruitier coconut. This is straight on coconut. 
First up, don’t be shy and throw yourself into Green Coconut; a Jelly Bomb with a totally tropical scent. As coconut cream flows into the water it creates a rich jelly that refreshes the mind and leaves your skin feeling silky smooth, while cinnamon leaf oil stimulates the circulation to give you a radiant holiday glow.



Set sail to the tropical island of your dreams. Lie back on the soft sand, the warm waters lapping at your feet, the breeze scented like tropical fruits. Climb into your bath and pop in this king of coconuts. Jelly leisurely spreads across the water, softening as it goes. Condition your skin with coconut cream and bask in the warmth that a cinnamon leaf undercurrent brings. Relax and refresh yourself in your own little piece of paradise.

Bewitched

4 out of 5 rating

not to be confused with another lush product called bewitched which is a bubble bar that doesnt have the same scent and is a completely seperate and different product.


Ingredients: Cocoa Butter, Shea butter, Lime Oil, Jojoba Oil, Coconut Oil, Chamomile Oil, Violet Leaf Absolute, Perfume.

Lime, coconut, chamomile, violet leaf absolute, cedarwood oil. There is nothing in this bar that would be offensive and nothing to”warn about” in my opinion. It’s lovely and at the same time smells like something you’d want a message with because it works. Initially buttery, a light lime smell that isn’t too strong, but it is noticeable and adds to the general perky prettiness of this scent. There is the familiar calming herby smell of chamomile, and the gorgeous slightly sweet violet leaf absolute. The coconut serves to round out the scent taking the herbs and lime and providing them a gentle sweet milky background. The primary scent is a fresh sea like scent. As the bar ages the violet leaf becomes more primary. If you have a chance to try this, I highly recommend this.

Lush Times 1999 description: Bewitched is made with those knobbly bits on one side to that you can smooth it all over your favourite person’s body to give him or her a bewitching experience. It’s like having two strong hands firmly massaging your muscles; run the Bewitched from the top to the bottom of the spine and they’ll be yours forever!* We make Bewitched with essential oils to help to bring you closer: violet leaf because it is said to restore the bonds of friendship, lime oil to help get rid of apathy (it’s decision time!) and chamomile to get your massagee to forget the past (and stop obsessing over ex-girlfriends). If by chance a Bewitched massage bar doesn’t work, then now is the time to ditch him and get a better one. (* If they’ve got any sense.) [/b][/quote]

Midnight Massage

Has the “Flying Fox/Godiva/Yes Yes Yes fragrance

Lots of Jasmine.

Ingredients: Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Olive Oil, Perfume, Fig, Carob Pods and Quince Extract, Vanilla Absolute, Jasmine Absolute, Olive Leaf Absolute, Petitgrain Oil, *Benzyl Salicylate, *Cinnamyl Alcohol, *Geraniol, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Benzyl Cinnamate, *Farnesol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Benzyl Alcohol, Lustre Radiant Gold

Covered in gold, and looking like a clock that is melting.

Lush Times: Enjoy a cheeky massage before the clock strikes 12 and see where things take you! Jasmine fans will want to get their paws on this gorgeously slippery massage bar, scented with expensive, comforting and sensual oils, As well as the stunning Jasmine Revolution perfume, Helen chose skin-softening butters, as well as forbidden fruits like figs, carob and quince to create an indulgent, luxurious massage – perfect to enjoy with anyone you’d happily share a Christmas mistletoe kiss with too.

Play Your Cards Right

(Sex Bomb scented Valentine’s 2008 massage bar)

Review: This is absolutely wonderful smelling. I smells a nice medium strong jasmine and rose “Sex Bomb” scent. Lush made this with the same sage, rose and jasmine that their popular bath bomb is made with.  

This is the first Lush massage bar in the awhile that I’ve made a habit of swiping on my arms as i’m going out the door, because it’s strong enough to wear as a perfume. And the bar is the cutest looking thing ever! I give this 5 stars, for looks, and scent.

If you like florals youll like the scent of Play Your Cards Right.

Ingredients: Cocoa Butter , Shea Butter , Perfume, Fresh Rose Petal Extract , Cassie Absolute , Vanilla Absolute , Sandalwood Oil , Vetivert Oil , Violet Leaf Absolute , Ylang Ylang Oil  *Benzyl Salicylate, *Cinnamal, *Coumarin, *Eugenol, *Geraniol, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Farnesol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Titanium Dioxide,Colour 77019, Colour 77007

Lush Times: GRAB YOUR PARTNER…It has a soothing extract of fresh rose petals, moisturising cocoa and shea butters, and a seductive violet scent that flirts with sensuality. It’s a massage experience that will do all the work for you. Grab the bar, dim the lights, and tuca tuca! After the song inspired such raucous enthusiasm, it seemed almost absurd not to have a Tuca Tuca Massage Bar to get people touching each other.

Fever

5 out of 5 rating

My Fever spray perfume, massage bar and Date night bar

All of the different Lush products on this page are made with the Fever scent.

Mirror Mirror neck cream is anothet prpduct but i dont have the picture.

Ingredients: Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Perfume, Rose Absolute, Jasmine Absolute, Sandalwood Oil, Gardenia Extract.

Fever massage bar

Fever bubble bar

Holoywood bubble bar

Mirror Mirror neck cream

Fever perfume

Fever soap (i won a contest so they created this and gave it to me)

Review:The original bar was two toned. Later lush changed it’s appearance to be round and having red lips on top of the bar. Fever smells strongly of rose absolute, but it smells like real roses, as if from a rose bush, or the rose smell of a florist shop. It also has beautiful Jasmine and calming sandalwood. I think it smells like 1950’s lipstick in a good way. In a wonderfulyl heady but addictive way. When I first sniffed this, I didn’t like it. It was waaay too strong for me. I think it was in the 2nd order I made with Lush and I was not used to Lush’s real, non-synthetic fragrances. Now it is one of my favorite bars ever. Later on, Lush made “Hollywood” Christmas bubble bar in the Fever scent by the way and Lush’s “Mirror Mirror” neck cream has the Fever scent also. Fever is absolutely intoxicating. And for you BPAL lovers, Beth’s Tarot: “The Empress” is a dead on ringer for Fever. Both have jasmine, rose and sandalwood.

Fever Bubble bar

Lush Times 2005 description: In the 1950s some new aromas were invented which changed the olfactory shape of perfume for ever. In Fever we’ve used one of them, with some of our favourite floras to produce a fragrance that epitomizes the scent for the 1950s independent women, shaking off traditions and exploring the brave new world. Picture yourself in dark sunglasses, pink lipstick and fitted sweater, scented with rose, warming sandalwood and sensual jasmine, ready to defy convention and enjoy life to the full. Fever is the massage bar to use on the sweet new guy in town to help him to cut loose and get hip.

Love Spell massage bar

3 out of 5 rating. See my demo video below.

Lush made this lovely massage bar only at their Oxford Street superstore in 2017, and it was also available for one day only on the lush Kitchen website.  Here’s a video demo i made of this massage bar.

I loved the original Love Spell massage bars so much. I thought the original ones were a 4 out of 5 rating. However when they remade them in the Lush Kitchen in 2014 they hardly had any scent so my rating went down to 3 out of 5.

Here’s my lush Kitchen box that i bought when they remade Love Spell.

Here’s my Sink Demo Video of Love Spell.

 

After 8:30

5 out of 5
Review: This is nice. I like it more than the other chocolate lush massage bars. It really does smells like peppermint and chocolate. It’s good for rubbing it on your man after a late dinner..

50g 2.75gpb

Ingredients: Cocoa Butter, Dark Chocolate, White Chocolate, Synthetic musk,Peppermint Oil, Perfume.

2001 Lush Times description: Still on the the best sellers, the old favourite After 8:30 attracts people with its mint chocolate scent. Often people want to know if it’s edible and while it wont’ do you any harm if you accidentally lick a body part covered in After 8:30, we’d recommend that you use it for what it does best, moisturizing your skin with cocoa butter and stimulating the mind and body with peppermint which was, incidentally, used by the ancient Hebrews in perfumes because of its aphrodisiac properties. It brings a dinner a deux to the perfect conclusion, and massaging your skin with chocolate is so much better for you than eating it.

 

The Lush bath bomb ‘Chocolate Meltdown’ was made with the same scent as After 8:30 its minty and creamy and has flecks of chocolste.

Pearl

Pearl Massage bar was made in late 2014 along with four other new massage bars at the time.  Along with everyone else i was excited to have a rose jam scented massage bar.  Just another way to enjoy that rose jam scent.  And there’s something about rubbing in that rose jam, rose and argan oil scent.

Lush Times magazine description: This sweet, floral and fruity smelling bar is made with antioxidant argan oil and calming rose oil, with sago bubbles to massage the skin and help boost circulation. Ah go on, give it a try.

Review: This massage bar has the Ro’s Argan/Rose Jam scent.
I’m glad Lush made a massage bar in this scent. After I take a bath with rose bubbleroon, and wash with scentenary soap, i can rub some massage bar on my arms so i can waft in the rose jam scent. 🙂
