I bought 16 of the Mother’s Day products. I didn’t buy 3 things that i’ve bought for previous mother’s day and have already reviewed here like Atom Heart Mother, Yummy Custard, and Posh White Chocolate.
It looks like a big red Hershey’s kiss or something, actually it’s shaped like Lush’s “French Kiss” bar. The scent of this bubble bar smells similar to “Hot Toddy” bubble bar. Lush made Hot Toddy for Christmas 2003 and 2004. It’s got that same nice spicy coca-cola-like smell. And also this year’s “Christmas Kisses” scent is a tad more complex than just “cinnamon-y”. One could combine this bar with alot of spicy scented or even fruity ballistics, melts or soaps for a lovely spicy-foody bath combo. Christmas Kisses bar is good enough to stand alone though. The scent lasted long on my skin which is good.
Description: Comforting spicy bubbles, as warming as a hot toddy, to kiss your body clean again.Crumble under running bath water for mounds of fragrant bubbles.
In addition to this special Kitchen sub box There is a general TMNT collab with different products here.
Here’s my unboxing video
Here are all five of the products laid flat.
The shower bomb is fun but couldve been half the size. But then again some folks like that its bigger for the cost.
In my photo below im showing that the green canister shower bomb is made with the Lush ‘Junk’ fragrance, which is also shared by the lush halloween ‘bat art’ (a play on the term bath art) bath bomb.
Thos fun bar has the same scent of the lush ‘Rainbow’ fun bar. Lime, orange, lavender.
The shredder soap is the Demon in the Dark scent. Icy spicy apple.
The Go Green scent is a classic green lush fragrance from way back in the day. People qere so bummed when lush discontinued this. I love it!
Here below is my requested video previous to myself or anyone else buying the box, and i describe each item because ive used them all before except for Happy Hippy lotion and it helps people with their purchasing decision, to see if they want the products or not this month.
Because i havent added three of these products to my blog here, im just going to put them here and then when i make the individual pages for Temple of Truth, Happy Hippy, and Karma Komba. Then ill have just the links to them here and move all of the pictures ive taken and my review text to the individual pages. But for now its sll here on this page. 👍🏼 I do already have Lava Lamp bath bomb here.
Chamomile Lawn soap
Temple of Truth bubble bar
Karma Komba solid shampoo
Happy Hippy lotion
Happy Hippy shower gel in my picture below. However, the sub box folks are making a LOTION of it for the June box. Exclusive. Never made before. 👍🏼
Review: I was upset about Happy For Sad shower gel leaving until I heard Happy Hippy was brought back. HH was a shower gel before Lush was called “Lush”, back when Mark Constantine owned “Costmetic to Go” (CTG). It is a pink grapefruit shower gel. It’s refreshing and grapefruity, It’s not too strong, not too light. Great for a morning “get you going” shower. My husband liked the smell, he said “Hey, it’s not bad”. You know this is a large step for him so it must be pretty good. Three new citrus shower gels this same year came out and not one of them smells the same. Well done Lush.
LT 2006 Description: A long time ago in a land far, far away… actually it was in 29 High Street, Poole Dorset, now Lush’s home, the Lush creative team used to run a company called Cosmetics to Go. One of their best selling products was our pink grapefruit shower gel, Happy Hippy. When CTG’s former customers heard that we’d finally bought back the rights to our old products they started haranguing us with emails, letters and bricks through the window, begging us to make their favourite, joyously refreshing gel again. We did, we tested it ourselves and we decided that it was as brilliant as we remembered. So here it is, use it and step singing from the shower. (That bit about the bricks through the window isn’t true.)
This is a beautiful cone shaped bubblebar with a deep turquoise color. It’s a VERY fragrant bubble bar. When Lush uk made them originally (Lush North America/U.S. didnt make any) the scent filled up my whole house! Its got a incense-y, and woody scent. And it was the deepest blue.
International (UK) website sold the original Blue and then later the White after a request from UK forum members to save cost and make one with no colorants.
Description: Our lovely new BUBBLE BAR has no less than 24 essential oils packed into it for a fragrant, bubbly bath. This blue version is exclusive to Mail Order, so get them while you can!
Wow do these cherry scented bath bomb ‘buns’ smell delicous!Fancy a Bath? Yes please.This looks like a cookieLooks like a pink oreo with purple middle stuff. The burger bubble barSwishing the water with my arm in the dark pink water. I can see all the rose gold glitter moving around.I added the other pink ‘bun’ too. The lettuce soap is made with lettuce and the tomato soap is made with tomato water 😊The beautiful rose gold glitterWhat a gorgeous color
Heres a demo video i made for you all even though its after Valentine’s Day. I just used it tonight 😊
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 has done another collab this Summer, with SpongeBob Square Pants. There are five products and one multi use gift. The gift box is the Krabby Bathy. Its a multi-component product made to look like the Spong Bob Krabby Patty.
As i use these products in my baths ill make a demo and reviews and ill take photos of each one in use and will have links here to their seperate pages.
You can see the Krabby Patty box in the below photo.
These have nice scents, theyre different than the regular Lush scents. These smell like tropical fruit to me. A few of these have real pineapple juice in them. Theres also lime, and coconut in some of them.
Bath bomb on the left, soap on the right
Both the sponge bob soap and the Sponge bob bath bomb have the same yummy scent. Coconut, Pineapple, Buchu, Orange, Litsea Cubeba.
Heres the Krabby Bathy. I unwrap it and show the seperate components in my 5 minute video below.
The pineapple body balm has cocoa butter, shea butter, pineapple juice, mango butter, apricot kernel oil, davana oil, and Tonka. Its used like a solid lotion.
The best smelling thing in here, in my opinion, is the pineapple body butter bar.
Squidward below has a different kind of scent, made with Persian Lime, Violet, and Blue Spiralina. Its green with silver shimmer on top.
Below is Surprised Patrick bath bomb, made with coconut and vanilla.
This icy mint & bright lavender bubble bar was sold as a Limited edition Christmas bubble bar 2002.
Lush Times 2003 description: You really have to go to a Lush shop to see this: it’s an amazing 20kg sculpture of Bubble Bar Slice, homage to the Ice Hotel in Sweden. Each slice — shame to cut it up but we have to — smells deliciously of mint and lavender for a sensationally stimulatling bubble bath. If you go to a shop you can buy a whole Ice Hotel ‘room’ to decorate and perfume your bathroom.
It was remade for forum members one time only as a special one large piece. The three pieces in my photos are ones i got from that big Christmas display piece.
It was remade again for the Lush Kitchen subscription box in 2014.
Lush got the idea for this bubble bar from the Hotel of the same name located in Quebec Canada. There is also an Ice Hotel in Sweden. It’s an actual building, a ethereally beautiful one, made of ice.
The Lush Ice Hotel bubble bar is a perfect marriage of lavender and mint. It’s smells refreshing and calming. It doesn’t get much better.
3 different pieces.
Ice Hotel 2006
its up for the vote for the June 2023 lush kitchen subscription box. the one that the Lush 2023 sub box will be making is a window piece.
This bubble bar was made by Lush around 2005 to smell just like “Big Blue” bath bomb and “Sea Vegetable” soap. It smells just like the bath bomb, fresh, oceanic, slightly floral and citrussy.
This is up for the vote in for the lush kitchen box for the month of june 2023.
I don’t know why I didn’t buy it much at the time when it was a regular item in lush stores.
perhaps because I liked the other bubble bars that were out at the same time a bit more. It doesnt have as much dried seaweed in it as the big blue bomb does. To some that might be a plus. Makes loads of bubbles and It makes pretty blue water.
My original big blue scent family photo from 2006. Whats missing in the original pic is my Sea Veggie, and ‘Enchanted Island’ bath melt, I couldnt find it in my lush museum until a couple of weeks afer this photo.
Lush Times 2005 description: This mysterious blue coloured bubble bar slice is full of the best bits of the best selling Sea Vegetable Soap, so if you like that, you’ll love this. Bubbling Under has mineral-rich; skin conditioning Arame seaweed, balancing lavender and refreshing lime for a deep blue ocean experience. Its amazing fragrance makes this the perfect bubble bathing experience for the boys as well as the girls.
It’s so different than the usual Lush bubble bar scents that i’d give it a 3 and a half out of 4.
As i do every year, i’ll buy the products below and add pics and demo videos, reviews as soon as i get them and use them. 😊
Lush remade two favorites from last Mother’s day 2021; Atom Heart Mother, and Rose Gold. They have the same look and same name, and i’m assuming the same scent, but you never know sometimes Lush likes to trick us. lol
There’s a familiar looking bath bomb that looks exactly like the bubble bar of the same name and scent as last year, only this year it’s a bath bomb not a bubble bar. It’s ‘Jasmine’ bath bomb. I think i have one Jasmine bubble bar still from last year so it would be nice to have a bath with the bath bomb AND the bubble bar. 👏🏼
What are you most excited about? Is there anything you don’t like?
I’m wary of the Wonder Mum eye pad. I hope it’s not like the lip mask Lush made for Valentine’s day that did not work.
The Yummy Custard body wash sounds good to me. And i can’t wait to see what the soap smells like!
I’m hopeful about the shower gel. The products that Lush makes with Mimosa in them, like Rub Rub Rub scrub or Sakura bath bomb, are nice, but maybe this is a different Mimosa scent than those.
Enjoy the sights and scents of a summer’s day, from dawn to dusk and into the glorious warm night, in your bathtub. I assume it’s the same appley So White or Once Upon a Time scent as last year’s, but we shall see.

You know what really messed with my head? Well, for Easter holidays past Lush has made carrot looking bubble bars. And so when i first smelled this Kim the Carrot on my Valentine’s 2022 Haul video I. DiD. NOT. LIKE. IT.
I was expecting a natural carrot scent. All the orange carrot shaped bars that lush has made throughout the years had carrot juice in them.
Even though its not an Easter product i still expected that scent. And when i smelled the Creamy Candy scent instead-it messed me up 😅
Lush ‘Creamy Candy’ bubble bar
It smelled familiar to me but i couldnt put my fimger on what it was that i was smelling. At the time i couldnt even tell what scent it was. Creamy Candy. It’s CREAMY CANDY 😂
This is a New, limited edition bubble bar for Valentines 2022. This wasnt my favorite. I liked the other Lush Valentine’s products below alot more than this bubble bar.
.
Here’s a video i recorded for you of my bath with Kim the Carrot and you can see what it looks like when using it.
I received my online purchase ! I’ll start taking baths, and ill use love bug, Lucky Tiger and Mr Loba Loba and record demos and review and add to this blog.
There are time stamps for each product in the description area of the youtube video above.
Valentines 2022 products will be up on the uk and usa sites January 6.
This year we have one returning Valentines product, and seven New Valentine’s products.
I’ll post any Lush Valentines exclusive products from Lush Liverpool Spa and from the Oxford Street store here too if they have some this year.
We have three new scents this year, and five products that share their fragrance with other Lush products.
Aubergine bath bomb / Big Eggplant Returning but much bigger! Still with the 29 High Street fragrance.
Big Eggplant ill be reviewing this one soon.
Hot Lips – New this year It’s a lip mask like they use in Korean Beauty. It’s got a New cherryish scent.
This is such a cute little guy. He’s white and blue with white small shimmer mixed in with the white part, and bigger chunkier white glitter on top.
This bubble bar has the Lush classic ‘Softy’ bath bomb scent, which is made from rose, orange oil and ylang ylang.
I liked him a lot. The scent wasn’t quite as lovely as the softy bath bomb. The scent was more faint than in the bath bomb. But he was cute all the same. He had blue and green inside.
Other products in this scent: Softy, Eyeball, Powder Puff, Noriko soap, and the Valentine 2022 ‘Rose’ soap
