Black Pearl shower gel

My scent family photo from 2014
By the way, Lush will be making the ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas soap (black pearl soap) for the December 2025 monthly subscription box. That soap is even more rare than the shower gel or perfume because they’ve only made it once for us for Christmas 2006.
This is a different kind of scent. It is not a citrus nor candy scent. It smells like chamomile tea, with frozen black currants as ice cubes, and a sprig of fresh lavender.
was SO popular with Lushies back in the mid 2000’s. The Lush Black Pearl bath bomb came first.
This was never a regular store shower gel, it was only limited edition. In my photo above are all the things Lush has made with this same fragrance. I made a review demo video (below) of the black pearl shower gel i had.
I had an all silver bath once with these three silver Lush products.
ingredients are Black Sugar, Lavender absolute, Chamomile oil, Olibanum oil, Myrrh resinoid, Silver Lustre sparkle.

Lush also made a Black Pearl bath bomb (this came first), and later a soap called ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. I enjoy the black pearl fragrance very much.
And Men would like this scent too as it is a unisex fragrance.
In my picture below i poured some of the shower gel in a cup.it actually looks like a black pearl 😄

Old Father Time soap
See my video demo below
This soap has thyme, sage and currants, and the fragrance is new, having myrrh, rosewood and opopomax. Tangy, fruity, herbal, earthy… I can’ stop sniffing this soap. The myrrh and the rosewood combo is calming to me. There’s a tiniest iota of sweetness from the myrrh, just enough to make it intriguing. Old school Lushies may like the earthy, blending of resinous, herbal, floral notes. I think of this as having a gender-neutral scent,
Lush description: It’s the time of the year for lathering earthy and herbal fresh sage and thyme infusion with festive, juicy redcurrants over skin. This mystical soap with precious myrrh resinoid is sure to set the cogs in motion to take you from Christmas into the new year in style.

Honey Lumps
4 out of 5 rating
See the video i made of Honey Lumps below.
Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate , Citric Acid , Honey, Tangerine Oil, Myrrh Resinoid, Benzoin Resinoid, Limonene , Perfume * Occurs naturally in essential oils.
Review: Honey Lumps is lovely. It is quite similar to the “Honey Comfort” ballistic. Itsnot the same scent as Honey I Washed the Kids. If you liked B Never shower gel or the Honey Waffle soap, then you’ll probably like Honey Lumps as well, it has the same scent. Maybe a bit more orange citrus in it but very close. It’s honeyish and sweet.
I like this just as much as the current Honey Bee ballistic that Lush makes but The two are different, Honey Bee and Honey Lumps don’t smell the same. Honey Lumps ballistics has more of a true honey smell. I miss the scent of my lovely B Never gel, and this is the next best thing.
One tip; make sure the bath water isn’t tepid, make sure it’s nice and warm/hot because you want the honey gobs to melt in the bath water. Yummy….
