Lush New Year 2021 products

This will be Lush first Lunar new Year/Chinese New Year products ever.

This will be available on-line and in all stores globally from the beginning of January.

From Lush Inventor Alessandro: “The inspiration came from a trip. Last year I visited my brother, who lives in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, around this period. When I arrived in the city, Chinese New Year celebrations were in full swing, with red and gold decorations everywhere, temples ready for festivity and a joyful atmosphere – with everyone, from all background, ready to join in. I live in London and every year there are huge celebrations in the city, and I thought it would be really nice for Lush to join in.”

Dragon Legend Bubble Stick

During the Lunar New Year, the ancient dragon dance is performed to scare away evil spirits. Welcome this dragon into your bath for good luck, knowledge and truth. You just need to leave it at the bottom of the tub whilst the tap is running. When the tub is full, pick it up and leave it on the side to dry, ready to be reused a couple more times. I’ve used some dragon fruit powder (obviously!) and the same scent as the old favourite Christmas Eve bubble bar – with jasmine and ylang ylang.

Godiva Lucky Coin Shampoo Bar

Godiva is back for a limited time! This shampoo bar has a classic Lush scent of jasmine… and was very very popular in our shops across Asia. I’ve reformulated slightly – so instead of chunks of conditioner you have a liquid conditioning blend mixed in with the shampoo needles, including camellia oil, which is traditionally used for extra shine on the hair. The shape is inspired by the shape of the lucky golden coins that are given as a gift during Lunar New Year. You always give these coins in a red bag – so red bags will also be available in the shops!

Lush Times magazine: Every Christmas needs a cracker! Crackersnap is a new, cheery, lemongrass Bath Bomb that ‘cracks’ wide open in your tub, turning the water bright green and revealing a few extra treats – just like a real Christmas cracker! Pop on your party hat, tell yourself a joke and round up that crocodile for future bathing fun times.

Review:  This has the wonderful “Avobath” scent, with lotsof lemongrass and bergamot. It makes popping sounds as it dissolves.  They were fragile via mail order but then Lush started putting them in little plastic cases and that’s why mine was not broken when it arrived all the way from England.

Here’s a demo i recorded of the Crackersnap bath bomb in the tub.
