Ginger bath oil melt
2 out of 5 rating
See my bath demo video of this below
Ginger is a white gold color, unlike the coppery gold color of one of the other lush bath oils. Ginger is a strong, spicy floral scent. It is not sweet whatsoever. It is a strong floral. Lush has made many products in the past with this same “Ginger” scent. See Ginger soap, Ginger perfume, Ginger lotion, Ginger dusting powder, Ginger man soap, Bad Ass shower gel, Ginger Kat. I have one, and when i use it i will record it and upload the video to you tube and then post it here too.
This is so pretty. Too bad i don’t care for the fragrance of it. Too spicy and too strong of a rose smell.
Here’s a bath demo video i made of this bath oil as it melts.
Oil on Troubled Waters
5 out of 5 rating
I have a short video below of this bath oil in my tub.
Lush description: Calm the storm as you unwind amongst clouds of mint and oakwood; you can almost smell the weather turning.
Lush made 15 different solid bath oils in 2014 as accompaniments to the new at the time Lush Gorilla perfumes. One of those perfumes was called ‘The smell of weather turning’.
There is mint and oakwood in both the perfume and this ‘Oil On Troubled Water’ bath oil. It does remind one of what it smells like in the air when a storm is coming. Before a storm the air can seem electric with ions. And then theres the petrichor smell.
The mint does remind me of the fresh, clean, cold air when it starts to rain, thunder and lightning.
And the woody note sort of warms up the mint with its woody comforting scent.
But honestly, THAT COLOR.
Stunning. Its a shimmery cobalt blue ball with the scent of a storm and having moisturizing properties. There is also some purple color here and there amongst the blue.
So this shot below is when Oil on Troubled Waters was just starting to melt and spread out in my hot, but not too hot, bath water. Also, it looks like when there is a puddle of rain water on the pavement with some blue oily substance on top. ‘Oil Over Troubled Water’
There are multiple references in the names of the perfume and the bath oil.
The oil on a rain puddle.
The lyrics to 70’s Simon and Garfunkle’s classic hit song ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’.
The smell of weather turning. Oil Over Troubled Waters
One comes before the other. The storm comes before the rain puddle.
I love the outstanding creativity that Lush had when they brought this whole concept together in a 1.5 inch bath oil ball.
Now below you can see the purple come out and the line of irridescent shimmer in the water.
😯😍
The scent of Oil On Troubled Water is medium strong. These little beauties dont make the water overly oily, it’s just the right amount of moisturizing.
Sometimes what i would do is have this bath oil with any green lush bath bomb. Then the result is green bath water with sparkly cobalt blue and purple streaks.
I would rate this a 5 out of 5.
Here’s a video i made of what this looks like in the tub
Happy Thoughts
3.5 out of 5 rating
One of two Oxford street bath oils, that are orange. Happy Thoughts is coated in red salt.
It smells perfectly Orangey and zesty.
Orange, color and scent, is said to lift the spirits if youre feeling down.
I show the oxford street store catalog page just to show you how lush describes Happy Thoughts.
my rating still suggests that i would recommend this if you like the smell of oranges.
If i had to pick only one bath oil out of the 20 different ones, i wouldnt necessarily pick Happy Thoughts.
It makes bright orange oil blobs in the bath and the scent doesnt get weak once its in the water which is great. I love the smell of oranges so i liked this one. there are no sparkles or shimmer in this one.
You’ve Been Mangoed
A redesigned current product. In this photo taken by Holly of the Sky It’s the green and yellow one in the photo which looks like a tiny Mango.
Lime Pastilles
Lime Pastilles bath oil has a pretty green shimmer on the outside. And it smells of limes.
I gathered some green Lush things in my stash a couple of years ago and took this picture below. I added the red arrow to show you where the lime pastilles is in the picure.
(Johnny Appleseed bath oil and Youve Been Mangoed bath oil are also around that same area)
In my photo below the green Lime Pastille bath oil is next to the silver bath oils.
