New for Spring 2021 in the Lush UK has introduced ‘Infra Wig’ soft styling gel. They’ve also introduced a second hair gel called just ‘Wig’, but they were out of ‘Wig’ when i was on the website.
Lush UK says Infra Wig is a ‘no crunch’ toning gel for white or gray hair. Gray or white hair, natural gray or dyed gray, has a tendency to turn yellowish depending on environmental factors.
Orange, Grapefruit, Vanilla, Lemon Myrtle, Tonka.
It has the scent of the Lush exclusive ‘Hair Dresser’s Husband’ spray perfume from 2010. Recently Lush UK rereleased this perfume in newly designed bottles.
I just took a pic of the Lush Hair Dressers Husband scent family.
Lush says you can use this on wet or dry hair, and it’s best to comb through hair but you can use your hands if you want.
i used it. It didn’t make my hair crunchy which is good.
In 2021 The uk government allowed people to form “support bubbles” during the corona virus pandemic lockdown.
So if you were single or were caring or a relative you would be able to form a Support bubble and could visit the person even during lockdown.
So Alessandro at Lush UK was inspired by this an developed a bubble bar that looks like big bubbles.
With a fragrance of grapefruit and petitgrain to cheer you up. It’s the same scent as the Lush ‘Madame President’ bath bomb from Mother’s Day years ago. It’s not a sweet scent. It’s fruity and fresh, with petigrain which is sometimes called the bitter orange tree.

93,000 Miles shower jelly
4 out of 5
spicy. Cinnamon and mint. Kind of like Wiccy Magic muscles bar.
see my one minute video of it below small size is $6.95 (3.50gbp) , large size is $11.95 (6.95 gbp)
After your muscles have been hitting the running tracks, have a run-in with this invigorating eucalyptus and mint jelly. Whether you like it fast or slow, whether you’ve completed a marathon or mastered a sprint finish this bright wobbly jelly will loosen aches and pains and send lingering cramp on its way. Take it straight out of the freezer and into the shower to enjoy the energising power of invigorating peppermint and warming spicy cinnamon leaf oils.
Antiphilitron liquid shampoo
2 out of 5
i wouldn’t recommend if you have dry hair like me.
This was more of a clarifying shampoo, good for getting the greeen out of blonde hair if one swims alot in chlroined water. Great lemony scent. This was a bit harsh on my hair and left tons of tangles. Just not for my hair type is all.
Lush 1999 description: Antiphilitron is for getting your hair clean when other shampoos don’t quite cut the mustard. What its fresh lemon juice, lemon oil and organic lemon peel mixture is good at is really getting hair squeaky clean, washing away grease, city grime or country muck and even chlorine from swimming pools. It also slices right through the silicones that get dumped on your hair by modern shampoos that make your hair smooth and shiny at first but then build up to make it a bit sad and lifeless. Fresh lemons make Antiphilitron smell fantastic, they perk up your hair and scalp and they help to revive your sleepy head in the morning. To greasy hair and grubby hair we say get Antiphilitron and get lively!
Banana Moon soap
4 out of 5
This was sold for about five years in all stores as a regular year round item.
The Lush Kitchen subscription box has this up for the vote with 5 other products for the month of May/June 2021
Lush used to make them in long cylindrical poles and then the last year they were around they started making the boring rectangle. But the soap didn’t change, it was still nice.
You have to get a good, fresh piece to appreciate this. It’s creamy, banana-y and nice. It should smell like banana runts even though it is a natural, not fake, smell. It’s also a gentle soap.
2006 LT description: One of the things that irritates us just slightly is when we’re not having a good day is that it’s perfectly legal to call something banana soap when it doesn’t have any bananas in it, but merely a dab of synthetic banana fragrance. Our banana soap has lots of fresh bananas in it; we mash them up, mix them with yoghurt, soap flakes and essential oils and make a truly bananafied, moisturizing soap that smells of bananas because it’s full of them.
Banana Moon scent family
Grass body lotion
3 out of 5 rating
This was an exclusive made in the previous incarnation of the Lush Kitchen that i bought. They had numerous products turned into lotion that week in the kitchen in 2014.
This lotion is the least grass smelling of all the grass products.
Grass scent family (missing the perfume oil and body spray)
Intergalactic shower gel
4 out of 5
The bath bomb is sweet, minty, woody and citrussy. However, the shower gel loses some of its sweetness, and its woodiness in the translation. So the shower gel is minty and herbal with a jint of grapefruit. Not as sweet though, and not as layered in scent. But nice smelling nonetheless. ❤️
The bath bomb is very popular because of its looks and its scent. Its cobalt blue and full of Glitter. Like a planet, in space, amongst the sparkly stars.
This was never sold in Lush stores. It was only made one time by the Lush UK Community favorites, along with four others.
Here’s what it looks like

Rough With the Smooth body scrub bar (Lord of Misrule scent)
4 out of 5
This smells so damn good omg. It has a good scrubbiness to it with tiny exfoliating bits along with cocoa butter. Use it in the shower. keep it in a soap dish to dry between uses.
It’s got that wonderful vanilla, black pepper and patchouli scent.

here’s a piece i had in 2002 which was a piece off of the long cylindrical pole.

Lush Gumback Express shower smoothie, A Little Monkey bubble bar, and Banana Moon soap. All made in the same scent family.
Gumback Express was discontinued in the mid 2000’s and so was Banana Moon. I didn’t think Gumback Smootie smelled like bananas, but i did think the Banana moon did and Little Monkey did too. The soap was great for people with dry skin like me. Lush has made other banana product but they’re not in this scent family.
This was an exclusive made in the previous incarnation of the Lush Kitchen that i bought. They had numerous products turned into lotion that week in the kitchen in 2014.
Grass lotion was made in the Lush ‘Grass’ scent, which smells like fresh, green grass. It all started with the Grass bubble bar in 2014. The bubble bar was only available for awhile and only certain stores. Then all the other products you see came after. ‘Autumn Leaf’, ‘Grass shampoo bar, The Mother’s day ‘Bubble Grub Bug’ bubble bar, ‘exclusive Lush ‘No Animal Testing’ soap, Grass shower gel, and not shown in my pic are the ‘Grass’ perfume oil, and the Grass body spray.
I LOVE the perfume oil best and this lotion the least. I don’t know if i bought one from a bad batch or what but it was very disappointing. Very thin, hardly any scent.
This lotion is the least ‘grass’ smelling of all the grass products.

Made with orange peel and it smells SO good. If you like the smell of Lush ‘Orange’ liquid body scrub you’ll love the smell of this balm.
This was created by Alessandro from Lush.
It was included as an exclusive product in the April 2021 Lush Kitchen Subscription box.
This has a totally different consistency than all the other Lush foot products. It’s not like a lotion in consistency. It’s the texture of a lip balm.
The best way to use this in my opinion is to have a foot soak at night, try to scrub away any rough skin on the feet , and when the foot soak is done and your dry your feet off, slather this foot balm on your feet and then put socks on overnight while you sleep.
It was first seen in the Lush UK Kitchen Subscription box for the month of February 2021
See my 4 minute demo, review, scent description video below.
My favorite Lush lotion now. I would give it a 6 out of 5 rating if i could 😄 Lime, Coconut. So beautiful smelling. Just like Key Lime Pie. It just sinks in to my skin without feeling greasy.
Made primarily with vanilla. it’s white on the outside and pink on the inside.
This was originally made for Easter in 2015. It was remade in the Lush Kitchen in 2017. Also, This was voted on to have in the April 2021 Lush Kitchen Subscription Box
This bunny has a white bubble bar covering a beautiful pink bubble bar inside.
Bunny Bubble is made with the Creamy Candy bubble bar scent.
I LOVE this. I love the shock of pink underneath all that white coating. And i love the Creamy Candy scent. Much more than the Snow Fairy scent or the Candy Fluff scent.
it’s got tiny blue (real) flower petals which float around in the water when the tub is full.
Here’s a group of Easter things for 2015 and you can see Bunny Bubble on the left.
Bunny bubble in the left of the picIt makes a light/medium pink colored water with lots of white creamy bubbles and tiny blue, pink and yellow flower petals.
It’s up for the vote again for the Lush Kitchen subscription box.
I rub some on my forearms every night before bed and it smells like Heaven.
sleep
“Relax into a creamy Sleepy-scented massage, with chamomile essence water and super absorbent marula oil for soft skin. Better sleep and less stress are both associated with a regular rub-down. Why not team with the rest of the Sleepy family?”
I’m in total love with this new bar. It has everything we like about the Sleepy/Twilight scent, but turned up. The bar really brings out its creamy, sweet quality. I love it when a Lush scent meets the perfect product for it, so that it becomes the best way that the scent can possibly smell. 👍🏼
From Lush Oxford Street. All of the Lush massage bars have been redesigned a wee bit.
How to use: Think of this as a solid massage oil, the butters and oils are designed to melt at body temperature so hold the bar between your hands to start melting before gliding over your skin, or someone else’s…
How to store: Keep this cool and dry, the ideal place is a Lush tin until you are ready to indulge in a home spa treatment, or your skin is in need of a boost of hydration.
Melt warning: This product is made with ingredients that allow it to soften around body temperature. During hot spells, it may melt. If you have any concerns please contact Customer Care.
This is a new bath bomb with a retro product scent.
This was made for Mother’s Day 2021, along with three other bath bombs and two bubble bars.
Mother’s Day 2021 products
The bomb has a nice, strong Apple-y scent.
It smells just like all of these products. more like the Once Upon a Time lotion.
Atom Heart Mother has the same scent of so White body spray
“Sweet apple scent and spectacular bath art help to unfurl a summer’s day. Escape into your bathroom, fill the tub and drop in. Smell familiar? This shares a scent with our Once Upon A Time range.
How to store: Keep in a cool, dry place until you’re ready to feel relaxed and uplifted.”
I love the blue sky and white clouds look.
The apple smell filled my whole bathroom with its wonderful scent.
I think it’s awesome how the blue bomb starts spewing pink foam, and then before you know it those combine to make purple.
It’s said that this shares its scent with the Lush ‘Wintergarden’ bath bomb. But with the addition of Jasmine. Lush also made a Jasmine Cream bath bomb after the bubble the year previous.
Jasmine Cream is a new limited edition bubble bar this year.
This Jasmine Cream bubble bar looks just like a jasmine flower.
How to use: Gently scented with a soft creamy filling, crumble under the running tap to release mounds of bubbles atop creamy white water. Jasmine and ylang ylang fill the air while skin-softening bubbles fill the bath.
How to store: Keep in a cool, dry place until you’re ready to use this plastic-free bubble bath. A perfect Mother’s day gift
This Jasmine Cream bubble bar (and the Violet Cream bubble bar) have a creamy center.
This isn’t a reusable bubble bar, it’s a regular squishy kind of lush bubble bar.
The cream in this jasmine one is yellow.
It’s got some glitter in it but not a lot. You can see the glitter in small areas in the water but again the glitter is mostly on top of the bar not mixed through the bar so it’s pretty minimal.
same scent as jasmine creamwinter garden bath bomb and jasmine cream have the same scentthis bath melt is the same scent
A lot of people were wondering if this soap was in the same scent family as the Lush ‘The Carrot’ scent.
No it isn’t. This has no buchu oil which was a primary scent in the carrot. Also the soap has orange oil whereas the Carrot scent family does not.
To me this smells like an earthier smelling version of a chocolate dipped orange.
Using a soap with rhassoul mud in it is always a nice experience. Spas use certain muds to tone skin, help remove impurities and it’s not drying on the skin. Lush has made a couple of other soaps in the past with rhassoul mud.
As you’ll see in the video it lathers up nicely and rinses away clean.

Violet Cream bubble bars
This is a new bubble bar for Mother’s Day 2021. Mother’s Day comes earlier in Europe than it is here in the U.S.
I think that, because of the remarkable design of it, and the lovely sweet violet scent, this is one of the best bubble bars Lush has made in years.
It’s a regular squishy bubble bar, not a reusable.
It’s just like a cream violet, it’s even got some cream in the middle.
Even though there is a mesmerizing green-blue colored glitter on the outside, this bar doesn’t make glittery water, in case you were curious.
Thi bar is worthy of my buying six more of them.
I’ll keep them in my dark closet or my dark lingerie drawer so the color stays as long as possible and i’ll keep them in something air tight so they don’t harden up.
These are only available for a limited time basis, just for Mother’s Day 2021.
This bubble bar makes lots of creamy bubbles.
Lush How to use suggestions: Crumble under running water and allow the uplifting violet and bergamot scented bubbles to build on top of skin-softening lilac waters. Smell familiar? This bubble bar shares a scent with our Daddy-o shampoo and conditioner range.
Lush How to store suggestions: Like any soft-centred treat, keep cool and dry until the moment of indulgence and feel good knowing the rose absolute is sourced from our regenerative rose projectin Pakistan.
These two: Daddyo shampoo and Violet Cream conditioner are the same scent as this Violet Cream bubble bar, all of them made with rose, violet, bergamot and lime
Run a bath, drop in and escape into a shimmering sunset dream with calming floral scents. A perfectly opulent Mother’s Day gift.
How to store: Keep in a cool, dry place ready for a softening soak.
This is apparently made in the Lush ‘Wintergarden’ bath bomb scent, which is very floral.
The Lush description has something about this being the colors of a sunset. I can see why.
The bomb is beautiful with its multi floral pattern and it’s beautiful color of rose pink with gold all sround it.
For some reason this didn’t smell exactly like Wintergarden. I adore the scent of Wintergarden and even bought the exclusive Wintergarden body spray-but this bomb, especially when in the water smells a bit different to me. I could swear it has an almost jasmine-like scent but it must just be my nose.
As it starts to dissolve it lets out a stream of gold and orange foam.
How to use: Run a bath and release the delicately floral scent for luxurious milky, soothing waters topped with pearlescent lustre for a bath bomb and oil in one.
How to store: When only the best will do this Mother’s Day. Keep in a cool, dry place until you’re ready for a moisturising soak.
Pearl bath bomb looks like a giant pearl. It’s white and has a pearlescent sheen on the top half of the bomb.
When i first took it out of my order box i feel absolutely in love with the scent. On my video i said it smells like vanilla icing.
Lush definitely needs to make a perfume of this. I felt so strongly about this that i contacted Mark the creator and owner of Lush about this.
Pearl doesn’t change the water color nor does it product bath art. But it doesn’t have to because it’s one of those bombs like ‘So White’ or ‘Snow Drop’ that are white and foamy and dance all over the tub. This Pearl does this back and forth rocking movement the whole time it’s in the tub. It’s quite charming as it shakes itself all around letting go of some beautiful white shimmer in the water.
The incredible scent stayed on my skin and when i put on my robe even my robe smelled like vanilla icing with roses. Gorgeous!
