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.
I got this from the Christmas 2023 Advent Calendar. It was only available in that advent gift set, not in stores and not online.
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 was surprised. This soap doesnt smell like it looks if thst makes sense. I liked it alot. i like the Jilted Elf scent which is what its scent is.
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.
Below are my pictures of other lush products with the same scent.
😊Ill start adding product info today and will add info as i get it. First i’ll add links to the returning Christmas products in this list that ive already reviewed in this blog and taken photos of so you can see how they look in use.
Then when these products are available to buy on Lush North America site ill buy them and do a video of the unboxing when they come in, and then ill take photos of each product and create short videos demoing each product.

Limited Edition Lush Advent calendar. 2 products exclusive to this advent calendar only. 2 Retro limited edition Christmas products only in this advent calendar gift set. I’ll put an asterisk next to the products in the long list below below if its included in the Advent Calendar.
Winter Holiday (Halloween and Christmas) bath bombs
If you use this list info please credit me, I really appreciate it.
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
Here is a Tub Demo Video that i made for you
Other products in this scent: Softy, Eyeball, Powder Puff, Noriko soap, and the Valentine 2022 ‘Rose’ soap
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. In fact The Sleeping Giant looks like a combination of the Twilight (pink) bomb and the Sleepy (blue) bomb.
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.
below is the ‘Twilight’ bath bomb. Sleepy was originally called ‘Twilight’ before Lush changed it for (the movie) copyright reasons. And so the look of it changed at the same time. 😊 Here’s the ‘Twilight’ bath bomb page with pictures of it and other lush products in this scent family.
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.
Looking like Cinderella’s carriage, i love the new Strawberry scent. Its different than any other Lush strawberry scent. Its almost like they mixed lush rose jam and lush strawberry twin tub jelly. Those notes mixed together.
I don’t think i’ve ever seen any Lush bath bomb that was so intricately designed. And the color combination of that shade of pink with a beautiful dusting of gold.
After my bath i ordered 3 more of this bath bomb. Who knows. i might buy more right before they go away in January.
This is a slow melty foamed type of bath bomb. I love that type. Those usually have the best bath art.
The Lush Strawberry Crumble bar 8s made with the same scent.
The Lush Butterfly bomb is made with the same scent.
I noticed that this has pink shimmer in the water as well as gold shimmer! It doesn’t stick to your skin which is good. It’s not the most glitter i’ve seen in a lush bath bomb but it’s not the least amount either.
The pink and yellow combine to make a deep orange colored water, with pink and gold sparkles.
⭐️ (Fyi-this is not the ‘Merry Christmas Everyone‘ shower gel that they’re selling for Christmas 2025. This is an entirely different shower gel.
Ill be doing a review page for the current Merry Christmas Everyone 2025 shower gel in a couple of days when i use it. Im currently using other Christmas 2025 shower gels to review. In the meantime 👀 look at the ‘Celebrate’ shower gel to know what the 2025 Merry Christmas Everyone scent is like because theyre the same exact scent.) ⭐️
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.
When they sold it to the public they changed the name to Happy Holidays. Notice the label says its cherry chocolate. 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
The Big Snow Fairy Roll is new. It’s a 1 kilo version of the Snow Fairy Roll. The ‘regular size’ Snow Fairy Roll is like two regular bubble bars and THIS Big SFR is even more huge.
Its the same size as this Big Comforter in my phoro below.
i have two videos below showing what the Lush shower slimes are like close up.
Made for the first time this year (as a limited edition) for the Lush Christmas 2021 holiday.
There is an Ectoplasm shower gel that Lush made for Halloween a couple of years ago. I thought this was a wonderful new citrus scent for Lush. I asked for a perfume of this. And i must have not been the only one because soon thereafter Lush made an Ectoplasm liquid spray perfume and a body spray. Lush also made a bath bomb called Ectoplasm first. And a few years ago Lush made a solid puzzle bath oil called Tree-D (a play on the words 3D).
So now Lush is making an Ectoplasm Slime.
The scent is very citrussy. It’s a different scent than all the many other Lush citrus scents. I absolutely adore it. This has an addictive, tart effervescent scent of grapefruit and tangerine. It smells like fizzy soda. Moreso than Bubble or Celebrate imo. Ectoplasm isnt as sweet as those.
My husband has a little UV light (or black light) and he pointed it towards the container and WOW!
I took a photo of the Ectoplasm products
Ectoplasm slime is the fourth slime that Lush has made. I’m going to attach videos of the other slimes that i bought when Lush made them. All 3 slimes have been exclusive and one was sold as a limited edition for Halloween. Two of them came out at the same time; ‘Brr’ and ‘Bam’. One was minty and one had the same scent as Lush ‘Nevermind the Ballistics’.
Lush also made a black slime with the snow fairy scent, and a pink slime with the snow fairy scent.
So the Ectoplasm slime will be the same consistency of these other slimed in the videos, only it will be highlighter green/yellow and it is fluorescent under black light.
here below is the latest version of this product, made for the exclusive monthly Lush subscription box. This Lemon aid cleanser in the pot was in the July box. it smells and acts the same as the below on that i made the video of close up.
it smells lemony and using it is much like using ‘let the good times roll’ or ‘angels on bare skin’.
I got a bit of the sticky topping too. It was easier for me to lightly mix the two and then spread the mixture on my face.
my skin was smooth after i exfoliated my face with a pinch or two of this and then rinsed off after.
i bought the one in my pictures below from lush uk when they were selling them for a limited time online.
I got mine ⬆️ and will use it and record a demo/description video here after
There is another Lush product with the (almost) similar name called just “North Pole’ which is a pink and white soap. This “THE North Pole’ is a bubble bar. They have different scents. The soap is chocolate mint, and this bubble bar is more of a creamy sweet vanilla.
4 out of 5 rating. See my demo video below.
This has a nice light bakery kind of scent. Its similar to Lush Snowcake scent but not exactly. It smells like vanilla icing. Its not really spicy. It has white shimmer on the outside of the bubble bar. The bath melt sign is where all the gold glitter shimmer comes from.
This has a pretty light dusting of white glitter only here and there on the outside of the bomb. However i wasnt able to see any glitter in the water to speak of.
This is so refreshing, and the blue color is so.pretty. ididnt see a whole lot of glitter in the water though.
Im sorry about the noise of the wind in the video, it was VERY windy when i took this bath. 😊
I like these style of ‘Amazeball’ bath bomb, which all have a hollowed out core with other tiny bath bombs inside, and a top.
Love Locket,. Fly Me To The Moon, Snow Fairy, Don’t Let the Bells End, and Holly Golightly are all this type of hollowed out bath bomb.
The time has come to be true to yourself. The Snow Fairy is here to shine a light on the courage, kindness, and confidence within you.
How to use: Fill your bath, sprinkle the bath confetti, add the shell and/or stopper and enjoy a fabulously softening experience. With a new 3-in-1 design, perfect for your Secret Santa pick.
How to store: Keep cool and dry before you are ready for a sweet-scented light show.
Did you know? Over 25 years ago we invented the bath bomb. Our fizzing bicarb beauties provide an immersive aromatherapeutic bathtime like no other. All this and no packaging too…
When you are feeling wobbly reach for one of these three shower jelly discs layered in one pot of joy. Pick from marzipan, toffee or cherry to your skin’s desire.
How to use: Wibble the jelly disc over your body and hair for a skin-softening wash. You can use it at room temperature, cool it in the fridge or even in the freezer for the ultimate invigorating shower.
The two that i bought didnt make it in my box, so i emailed Lush and showed them my order and packing slip. Thryre going to resend. Its taking awhile 😏
I like the cherry scented one most. Ilike the way each of them smell individually by themselves. When i smell them all in the same container its kind of overwhelming.
This is a fun 3 in 1 bath bomb for Christmas 2021. There are three pieces, and each piece has its own color and scent. The yellow sleigh is comforter scent which smells like ripe berries. The red santa is made with Snow Fairy scent. And the Butterbear smells like Butterball.
I took a series of progressive photos below showing how it looks as it dissolves.
Its one of those fast fizzy bonbs that lush make, not the slow, foamy ones. That said, for being a madly fizzing kind it does make decent bath art because of the different colored bombs.
The outcome is a deep orange bath water.
Id rate this a 5 out of 5 because i like the new 3 in 1 idea, and for the idea of making different parts to have different scents. So you can use parts of it per bath or you can use it all at once.
5 out of 5 rating (WOW) See my TubbDemo & Scent description video below.
The first time i saw this, on a lush store instagram account, and i thought to myself ‘oh my God what a beautiful bomb.’
Lush description: Watch colours of orange, red and gold glide across your bath as you sink into skin softening waters with rice starch and coconut milk powder. Lie back and listen to the firework-like crackle whilst you inhale the scent of decadent floral rose and rich cardamom.
Rangoli is an art form originating in the Indian subcontinent on certain holidays, in which patterns are created on the floor or a tabletop using materials such as powdered lime stone, red ochre, dry rice flour, coloured sand, quartz powder, flower petals, and coloured rocks.
The smell is delicate, but GORGEOUS. Pure rose, cardamom (which i love), mandarin oil, almond essential oil, coconut powder, benzoin. It a delicate, softly sweet rose, a drop of fragrant and yummy cardamom and a half drop of almond essential oil.
As it starts foaming and dissolving a lovely striped pattern of gold, orange and red foam appeared. The popping candy is slow popping, it doesn’t distract from the poetic loveliness of this bomb.
I don’t know why i took it out to set it on the side of the tub and take a picture. But here’s that. 😄
This is a slow melter type of lush bomb. I love the gradient colors of foamy stripes in my photo below.
Golden glitter appears in the water when the bomb is all dissolved.
It’s altogether lovely, romantic, festive and yummy.
Time to scrub up? Pop into the shower and let the sea salt and prickly pear oil do the hard work, leaving you with softer skin. Listen out for crackle-ingly good shower ASMR with this natural exfoliator.
you all asked and no, my arm didnt have any glitter after i used it. 😊
How to use: Wet your bar, rub between your hands and scrub using the pressure you like. Cut in two before you use or use whole bar for an indulgent pear-scented treat.
How to store: Keep somewhere cool and dry until ready. This is enough for two full body scrubs so pop in a dish between uses.
i was very excited to buy golden pear scrub. i love all the lush golden pear products. It’s made with real pear. And i cannot resist bath bombs that look like fruit. And a gold one? Yeah, i’m not made of wood people.
If you’ve tried the Golden Pear body spray or jelly, you know that these two have a very strong astringent alcohol-y note to it. This isn’t the case with the scrub. The scrub smells more like the Golden Pear soap, bath bomb and bubble bar.
After using my skin is smooth, soft and moisturized, while also smelling like a pear. It’s conditioning without being too much.
As you can see in my video my arm didnt have any noticeable glitter when i was done.
Here’s the current Golden Pear body scrub only available in the 2025 Advent calendar. I don’t think it’s as pretty as the former Golden Pear body scrub, which looked like an actual Golden Pear.
The gold piece in the Lush Christmas 2025 ‘Christmas Lights’ FUN bar has the golden pear scent.
Golden Pear scent family products soap, bubble bar, bath bomb, different style bubble bar, solid mouthwash tablets, body spray, and the jelly isnt in this photo
Its alright. Its certainly pretty. I like when Lush changes it up sometumes. For instance Lush made tge Luxury Lush Pud one year with the twilight scent and one year with the Comforter scent. I liked surprises like that. But…. This wasnt just changing the scent of something. This is melding the look of two completely different bath bombs. Which can be fun. Except when they replace the mermaid blue and gold water of Golden Wonder to a peach colored water with no sparkle.
Lush has released the ‘Golden Wonder’ bomb for Christmas every year for the past 10+ years. Why? Because its very popular. Whats not to love, it was a gold present.
So while i like a change i do wish they would bring the two original bombs back next Christmas 2022.
This is to replace the Golden Wonder Christmas bomb which has been sold every year for Christmas for the last 15 years or so. It looked like a gold Christmas present. And it had the Lush Champagne Snow Showers/Celebrate scent, which is a fizzy grapefruit or orange scent.
I try to show the colors as it fizzes in my picture below.
This Golden Pudding is like if Lush Luxury Pud and Golden Wonder had a baby.
