Golden Slumbers

5 out of 5 rating

See my demo and review video of this golden, glittery bath bomb in the tub WOW.

Golden Slumbers was made to promote sleep with it’s lavender forward fragrance.  Golden Slumbers doesn’t have a sweet and creamy edge to it as lush ‘Twilight’ lavender scent.  Golden Slumbers has a more herbal lavender scent.  Very bright and clean smelling.

Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric acid, Lavender Sprigs, Lavender Oil, Chamomile oil, Lavender absolute, Neroli oil, Ginger, Jasmine, Perfume, Linaloo, golden lustre sparkle.

I kind of like the original golden slumbers, because it had actual gold covering it, whereas on the newly designed Golden Slumbers it doesn’t have painted gold on the top, instead it has tiny gold glitters mixed in the bath bomb mixture.

Golden Slumbers is also chock full of everything lavender, and then the addition of the chamomile is wonderful, it lightens the whole thing up and gives the lavender a sparkly quality. The Golden Slumbers part comes from the ballistic’s ingredients’ ability to help you get to sleep with the combination of lavender and chamomile proportedly being great sleep aids. I like the sprigs of lavender, andthere are not too many. My new lavender combo would be this Golden Slumbers forum member inspired ballistic and the “Schnuggle” shower bar with it’s Cocoa Butter, Corn Starch, Lavender Oil, Ginger Oil, Sandalwood Oil, Chamomile Oil, Jasmine Absolute they combine beautifully for a lovely, smelling good night’s sleep.file-jan-14-10-53-24-am

 

 The Dream Time bath melt is the same scent made with the same scent ingredients.

Lavender La Vida Loca (formerly ‘Serendipity’)

Original 5 out of 5

Recent 3.5 out of 5 rating

Here’s the rectangular shape they are now, from the Lush (USA) Kitchen January 2026 Subscription box. Not quite as colorful and not quite as strongly scented.

on its side

This is the most current Lavender La Vida Loca soap which was made and included in the January 2026 Lush Kitchen Subscription box. The theme was ‘Dreamland’.

Its looks different than the original (UK) Lavender La Vida Loca/Serendipity soap. Its rectangular. It doesn’t smell quite as strong as the pieces i’ve had before. It’s hard to smell anything from it.

French Lavender and Chamomile

‘Don’t leave sweet dreams to chance. Try this skin soothing lavender and chamomile lullaby.’

Here’s the lovely piece i got.  It doesn’t have the sweet tonka note as Twilight.  It’s more of a true lavender scent, matching the “Golden Slumbers’ bath bomb. 

This soap is made into a long pole shape.  And then Lush slices pieces off cross-wise.  Pretty pink purple outter and lavender purple inside. Even though it’s glycerine based, It’s a creamy soap.

Ingredients:  Glycerine, rapeseed oil, lavender flower infusion, french lavender oil, water, dried lavender stem, chamomile blue oil, lavender absolute.

A “Golden Slumbers’ bath bomb would go well with this as both are lavender scented.   “dreamtime” bath oil would go well with this also.
