When i saw this bath bomb i knew this was one of the first Lush things i was going to buy for Mother’s Day.
I love the shape of it and the pink, yellow and blue colors.
This limited-edition Mother’s Day bath bomb entitles you to one long, restful soak, redeemable from the comfort of your own bathtub. Let your mind drift away to somewhere sunny as you sink into sparkling waters with the uplifting citrus scents of lemon myrtle and grapefruit oils. Emerge from your bathtime vacation feeling peaceful and refreshed.
I didnt expect this rainbow 😍
The scent is very citrussy. There is grapefruit, lemon myrtle and a bit of floral from ylang ylang. Its not sweet at all.
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 here.
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!

Bought these today. I didnt buy the body spray. It’s Expensive. But since the shower gel is the same scent as the body spray ill see how i like the shower gel. Then If im in love with the shower gel then maybe ill buy the body spray.
Here’s my unboxing video. 😊
Im recording an unboxing video today with my opinions on these.
Fiona shower gel
I love the shower gel. Its my favorite item in the Shrek products group.
Rainbows and Waterfalls soap was made for Easter. Its made with watermelon juice, neroli and violet. Its a fresh but pretty scent.
Its such a pretty soap. Lush has only made 3 or 4 products with a rainbow effect.
Theres nothing not to like about this soap. The scent, the look are so good. I would byy another one, thats why i give it a 5 out of 5 rating.
“Pop this stunning bar in a dish by your sink to sit with pride, exuding hope and positivity with its rainbow of colors and vibrant scent. We’re celebrating the arrival of spring with this limited-edition soap that’s made of fresh watermelon juice to cleanse, cheery neroli and violet leaf absolute for a leafy green floral aroma. Marshmallow root decoction and rice bran create a rich, creamy lather, making it tempting to bring into the shower and use all over your whole body, not just your hands!”
The ad for this bomb is kind of creepy. I didnt know what it a meant so i googled.
Saltburn is a film written and directed by the Oscar-winning film-maker Emerald Fennell, about a young man who causes chaos when he’s invited to stay at a stately home. And ewww ….there is a scene where the charactrr Barry Keoghan watches Jacob Elordi masturbate in the bath, then sneaks in and licks the plughole. And thats what the lush pictures on their site that i attached below mean.
I recorded a 2 minute video of this in the tub before i took a bath.
“Lap it up, Saltbomb’s salty, milky bath water is fit for a splurge. This salt doesn’t burn, it’s a soothing blend of coconut milk powder, mineral-rich coarse sea salt, and shares a fragrance with our year-round moisturizing bubble bar, Milky Bath. Feel like Hollywood royalty with this limited-edition bath bomb that never kills the groove, leaving the bather with silky smooth bath water they’ll want to treasure every last drop of.”
The Lush ads are kind of creepy.
This bath bomb has a nice comforting scent. Its got salt in it. It makes the water milky because of the coconut milk.
Benefits:
– Coconut milk powder makes silky, milky waters
– Coarse sea salt makes things a little salty
– Brazilian orange oil lifts you up
– Proudly packaging-free
How to use:
Pop this little pinch of paradise into your bath to create those silky, milky waters.
I enjoyed taking a bath with it. It doesnt put on a show like other lush bath bombs but its nice for a change.
I havent loved a Lush perfume this much in awhile. Since Tender is the Night and Shade. All i want to do is wear this Alina fragrance constantly and sniff my arm constantly.
The perfumer, who’s name is Alina, talks about how she created this perfume. Ill give a link below. Its honestly fascinating. Wgen i smelled it I got exactly what she was describing. I like the concept. And she brilliantly made this perfume fit the concept.
Alina is a wizard.
There is floral, there is frankincense. I love everything that has frankincense in it. And i love jasmine.
My nose focuses on the jasmine, frankincense, orris and vanilla. With just a hint of pink peppercorn.
So nice.
I’ve mentioned this before in other Lush reviews that if Lush puts orris in a product chances are i will love it.
There is patchouli in here as well. Normally whenever patchouli is around its pretty noticeable. Not so with Alina. It’s very light.
The patchouli, pink peppercorn and clove bud oil combine nicely.
And one of my favorite notes, sandalwood, is in here as well. This perfume has some of my favorite perfumery notes in it.
I bought the solid version of Alina. It seems to have sone decent staying power on my skin. I can still smell it on me a couple of hours after i put a small amount on my wrists and neck. This is a perfume that doesnt change on me as it dries down, and that’s a good thing.
I’m not sure im going to spend some money on a bottle of the Alina spray perfume. Only because i already have a ridiculous amount of lush perfumes.
If i do buy a bottle of Alina I’ll add that to this page. The U.S. gets the perfume for Mother’s Day which is in May.
Alina was created by Lush perfumer of the same name, who was inspired by the generations of women that came before her. Alina created three distinct fragrances, each one representing a different generation born in the last 100 years, before blending them together to create a multi-layered and timeless scent. She named the fragrance Alina – a name given to her by her grandmother.
You’ll be greeted with a sweet and fresh first impression, thanks to Alina’s bergamot, pink pepper and clove bud oil, along with warm amber and vanilla. Then comes a more floral, sweet, and powdery centre with jasmine and orris butter, before finally an undercurrent of frankincense, patchouli, and sandalwood leave a deep and woody lasting impact.
How to use: Spritz this spicy, juicy fragrance all over, and bask in its sweet aroma. A clean and complex scent.
There are only around 500 perfumers in the world, and three of them work at Lush. In this YouTube video, Alina herself talks us through the inspiration for her new fragrance that shares her name.
Lather up in liquid gold with our vegan shower gel that’s filled to the brim with plastic-free glitter and the mouthwatering toffee scent of Honey I Washed The Kids. The cheerful blend of Brazilian orange and bergamot oils make this shimmering wash the sweetest Easter treat there is.
This is good. I still dont like the consistency that Lush changed a few years ago. But i still use it because i live the smell and the gold sparkle.
Made in Canada.
Benefits:
– Brazilian orange oil is uplifting
– Fine sea salt gently exfoliates
– Plastic-free glitter won’t harm waterways
– We’ve made our recyclable bottles thinner to further reduce unnecessary plastic
In my photo below i gathered alk the Honey I Washed the Kids scented Lush products. Since i took this photo there have been about 4-5 more prodycts made in this scent.
Its a beautiful color of green., two or three shades of green.
Lush How to use: “Sweep this seaweed surfer over your body and hair to create rich hydrating suds. Use at room temperature, cool in the fridge, or even in the freezer for the ultimate oceanic shower!”
Its so cute. I love turtles.
Some people use the shower jellies whole in the shower like soap. Some cut them in large pieces and use one of the pieces in the shower like a soap. And some cut a larger piece and chop that up into tiny pieces, then put so the pieces in a plastic seive, then hold the seive under the tub faucet and when the water stream hits it it will make foam in the tub. And the foam will smell good and it wont color the water.
Some have even come up with a way to put the whole thing in a blender with othrr liquids and blend it until it becomes somewhat like the consistency of shower gel.
Lush description:
“Snap up this turtle-shaped jiggly jelly, and lather up in citrusy suds of orange flower absolute while riding waves of skin-softening seaweed that’ll refresh you like a dip in the sea.
Our dried kelp and bladderwrack seaweed is hand-harvested from the coast of Ireland, and helps to draw moisture into the skin, keeping you fresh and hydrated.”
Easter Turtle is a..fresh, clean scent with a touch of floral, earthiness, andvspice. Seaweed, Myrrh, Orange Flower, and Cinnamon leaf oil. I dont smell any of these as notes, it just blends together to form the scent.
Its the same scent as Apple Crumble bubble bar, and I can resist everything but Temptation shower gel.
I changed this from a 5 to a 4. Only because its not one i would stock up on.
This is for Easter 2024
Its fragrance is made with lime, benzoin and coconut milk.
No glitter.
Its colors are blue and pink, which combine to make a great color.
The coconut in this makes the water milky and its softening.
I’d give it a 4 out of 5 rating. Mostly because i love the end result in the water, and the comforting scent.
Lush description: “Relax under a blanket of slow-frothing foam that bubbles in streams of pink and blue, settling into a lavender sunset. Bath water turns silky soft as coconut milk powder and corn starch dissolve, while the creamy, comforting aroma of sweet benzoin resinoid and lime oil fill the air for a truly luxurious bedtime bath.”
Lush introduced in 2015 their Milky Bar soap with a new lovely design! I took a pic of the new one along side the original style Lush bubble bar of the same name. It has a light, floral fragrance with hints of orange oil.
This soap was made and sold way back in 1993 when Lush was called ‘Cosmetics To Go’. It was one of their best sellers.
It doesnt smell like milk to me, its more of a light floral to my nose, comforting.
Lush has had two different designs of the Milky Bar soap throughout the years.
Theyve also made a bubble bar originally called ‘Hot Milk’, which also had a design upgrade and a name change to ‘Milky Bath’, which changed design and name once again to ‘Milky Bar Bubble Bottle’
And lush made a bath bomb called Toby the Cow with the milky bar fragrance, a ‘Salt’ bath bomb, and they made a Christmas bath bomb ‘Jingle Spells.
💕💘💞💗Lush has some yummy looking products coming out for Valentines 2024.
I decided to buy one of each item. It was so expensive! I dont think i can do that every holiday anymore. I cant believe how much more the lush products are here in the U.S. 😱
That posh white chocolate and rose body wash, Yummy looking. if its anything like their posh chocolate body scrub theyve been selling in stores for the past year i will love it!
The Love Burger is the cutest bath gift. I can’t wait to open it, take a bath with it, video it in the tub, and write a review of it for you here.
What Lush Valentines product are you looking forward to.? 😊
I love the old and new scents. Quite a variety for those of us who like florals, and those of us who like like foody/yummy fragrances. Lush has many Whimsical products this Valentines, which i love.
My favorite scent is in the purple potion bottle bath bomb. And my second favorite is the yumny yummy yummy shower gel scent in the love letter bath bomb, and the strawberry heart soap.
Below is a list of links for each Valentine’s 2024 product that ive reviewed so far.
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.
