Lush Kitchen Subscription box May 2024 – Bridgerton

I’m excited. I like all the items.

Ive used Royalty and Keep It Fluffy shower gel and love both of them. And Tender is the Night is one of my favorite Lush fragrances.

And Tender is the Night LOTION?! Is it me? Im not remembering any Tender is the Night lotion, ever.

I mean there was a couple of years that i didnt buy any lush so it could’ve came out during thst time. But i dont think so. The reason im wondering is because i noticed the last two items for may are ‘Exclusive products’. Well, Tender is the Night lotion is exclusive too if theyve never made it and are only making it for this box.

Also wondering if the bath bomb is like the Lush Haagenbath bomb. I dont think so because they dont mention mint.

3 exclusives. Yay! 😊

Golden Egg shower gel

4 out of 5 rating

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

How to use: 

Get naked, hop in the shower and lather up

Ingredients

Glycerine, Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Water, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Calcium Lactate Gluconate, Fine Sea Salt, Lauryl Betaine, Fragrance, Lactic Acid, Bergamot Oil, Brazilian Orange Oil, Titanium Dioxide, Gardenia Extract, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Tin Oxide, Silica, *Citronellol, *Geraniol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Iron Oxides, Yellow 5

the gold sparkle is mesmerizing 😍

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.

Easter Turtle

4 out of 5 rating

Lush made this shower jelly for Easter 2024.

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.”

Ingredients

Glycerine, Bladderwrack Seaweed Infusion, Sugar Kelp Infusion, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Propylene Glycol, Carrageenan Extract, Myrrh Resinoid, Orange Flower Absolute, Cinnamon Leaf Oil, Titanium Dioxide, Water (Aqua), Gardenia Extract, *Eugenol, Perfume, Colour 45350, Colour 42090

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.

Strawberry Heart

5 out of 5 rating See my Sink and Tub demo Video i recorded for you Below. 😊

I’m not sure if Lush is only offering the small size of jelly this Valentine’s?

Nevertheless, i love this jelly. I think this Syrawberry Heart shower jelly is one of the best strawberry scents that lush has ever made (besides the yummy yummy yummy shower gel) . Lush says it’s a new strawberry scent. And yes i would say it is. Doesn’t smell like Yummy Yummy Yummy because there’s no geranium, no frankincense and no bergamot. It Doesn’t smell like Strawberry Twin Tub jelly either because there is no floral notes.

This truly smells like Strawberry jam.

Looks cool with the sun shining through it

INGREDIENTSGlycerine , Water , Sodium Laureth Sulfate ,Carrageenan Extract, Fair Trade Organic Aloe Vera Gel, Fragrance , Fresh Strawberry Juice, Sicilian Lemon Oil , Lime Oil, Ho Wood Oil, Jasmine Absolute, *Citral , *Limonene , *Linalool , Red 4 ,Red 33 .*Occurs naturally in essential oils

This is a brand new, limited edition shower jelly with a NEW strawberry scent.

DESCRIPTION

All of our jellies feature glycerin and carrageenan to make them incredibly hydrating and ready to jiggle their way into your shower, while lemon, lime, ho wood, and jasmine blend perfect with strawberries for a berry delightful scent that lingers.Our clear pots are made from recycled and recyclable materials.Benefits

  • Fresh strawberry juice is cleansing
  • Citrus oils add an uplifting note

ScentFruity | Sweet

This smells like strawberry jello. SO yummy smelling. It’s slightly sweet. I like the scent of this a lot!

I would rate this jelly a 5 out of 5 rating.

Squid Games shower jelly

5 out of 5 rating see my demo video below

Its a large size jelly in the shape of a squid.

It has the scent of ylang ylang flower, patchouli, lemongrass and Ho wood. It smells like an expensive mens cologne or something. I love the scent.

Also, the scent has somestaying power after you use it which i like.

I Would give this a high rating because its really cute, it works well without drying my skin, it smells great and the scent lasts.

Its scent is from another product that Lush made before they called themselves Lush, when they were a company called Cosmetics To Go in the 90’s. The product was called ‘Damp Squid’ and it was a bath bomb.

I still have my old pictures of my Damp Squid bath bomb.

Demo Video

Ectoplasm slime

i have two videos below showing what the Lush shower slimes are like close up.

Made for the first time this year (as a limited edition) for the Lush Christmas 2021 holiday.

There is an Ectoplasm shower gel that Lush made for Halloween a couple of years ago. I thought this was a wonderful new citrus scent for Lush. I asked for a perfume of this. And i must have not been the only one because soon thereafter Lush made an Ectoplasm liquid spray perfume and a body spray. Lush also made a bath bomb called Ectoplasm first. And a few years ago Lush made a solid puzzle bath oil called Tree-D (a play on the words 3D).

So now Lush is making an Ectoplasm Slime.

The scent is very citrussy. It’s a different scent than all the many other Lush citrus scents. I absolutely adore it. This has an addictive, tart effervescent scent of grapefruit and tangerine. It smells like fizzy soda. Moreso than Bubble or Celebrate imo. Ectoplasm isnt as sweet as those.

My husband has a little UV light (or black light) and he pointed it towards the container and WOW!

I took a photo of the Ectoplasm products
Ectoplasm body spray

Ectoplasm slime is the fourth slime that Lush has made. I’m going to attach videos of the other slimes that i bought when Lush made them. All 3 slimes have been exclusive and one was sold as a limited edition for Halloween. Two of them came out at the same time; ‘Brr’ and ‘Bam’. One was minty and one had the same scent as Lush ‘Nevermind the Ballistics’.

Lush also made a black slime with the snow fairy scent, and a pink slime with the snow fairy scent.

So the Ectoplasm slime will be the same consistency of these other slimed in the videos, only it will be highlighter green/yellow and it is fluorescent under black light.

Heres my Demo video of Ectoplasm slime

Karma shower jelly

Never made for the public, this has only originally been made in 2006 for uk forum members, and made in the Lush Kitchen a couple of times in 2014 and 2016. Its up for the vote for the September 2021 Lush subscription box.

5 out of 5 rating

If you like the Karma scent this jelly will make you happy.
Its strong with the classic orange oil, patchouli, lemon grass, and pine scent of Karma.

Its a red orange color with no sparkles.
I usually cut some up, put it in a small plastic kitchen seive and hold it under the falling water and it makes tons of karma scented bubbles in the tub.

I added a Karma scent famy (which is one of the biggest scent families) on the last photo, and there are four more newer products missing from the photo already!

Sunnyside Up

5 out of 5 rating. See my demo video below.

Coconut, pineapple, orange, vetivert

This jelly is made with coconut, pineape and vetivert. It has the same scent as Coco Loco/Big Calm.

We like our eggs sweet, foamy and vegan. Brazilian orange oil and vetivert oil make a cracking combination and will have you dreaming of being in a candy store filling a paper bag with fried egg gummy candies. Let this sudsy version wobble over your body in the shower and feel the refreshing, toning and brightening effects of fresh pineapple infusion. If ever there was a shower jelly that smelled good enough to eat, it’s this one.

Sunnyside Up jelly

Don’t leave yourself scrambling for a good shower. Lather up with this sunshine-filled jelly. It’s no yolk, this cheery little egg is packed with a cracking mix of soothing coconut infusion, enzymic pineapple and softening carrageenan extract – a recipe for truly sumptuous skin. Top it all off with a blend of uplifting orange and vetivert for a clucking good shower.

Benefits:
– With a soft, tropical scent, fresh coconut infusion soothes and moisturises skin leaving it soft and supple.
– Fresh pineapple infusion is bright and enzymic, great for stimulating skin and giving it a revitalised glow.
– Carrageenan is a seaweed extract that gives this product it’s unique jelly texture, and is super softening for your skin.

How to use: Keep it whole, and lather onto wet skin to create a rich foam that will clean and leave you feeling fresh and bright.

Demo video. How i make bath bubbles too!

Lush Silver Bells & Drummers Drumming jellies

4 out of 5 rating for both jellies. See my demo, description and reviews video below.

Since there are 70 products i asked my youtube subscribers and my instagram tv subscribers to choose which products to review next. The majority of folks chose tge jellies first. So im reviewing both silver bells and drummers drumming jellies here.

Silver bells has a new scent. It smells like fresh air, or snow, or fresh sheets. The scent is made with lime oil, orange oil and frankincense (olibanum). Its also got black sesame seed milk in it, which is different and interesting.

Silver Bells has a silver metallic sheen to it, wheras Drummers Drumming is yellow, not gold.

I find this to be more of a milky consistency as you can see in the video. Even so, it makes the same kind of lather that the Drummers Drumming and the Santa’s Belly do.

The scent of Drummers Drumming smells of peach juice. Very few (a handful only) Lush products over the last 20 years have peach juice in it.

I like it, its not too sweet but it does have a natural sweetness to it.

Its east to lather up with both of these jellies. And its easy to rinse off the jellies too. They rinse off clean and leave no kind of sticky residue or anything.

I show in the video how a teeny sliver of either jelly makes Tons of bubbles in the tub too!

Comforter shower bomb

5 out of 5 rating. See my demo & review vid below.

Lush has introduced a new shower bomb to the mix. The Comforter shower bomb. Originally introduced at the new Lush Liverpool Spa Mega store, Lush uk decided to offer this to the public for a limited time, on their Lush Labs site at lush.co.uk

So i bought two. I love anytjibg in the Comforter scent.

So far ive loved every one of the 7 different Lush Cosmeticd shower bombs that ive tried.

This Comforter shower bomb is right up there amongst my favorite shower bombs.

Youre supposed to pass the shower bomb quickly one time through the water (dont leave it in the water) and then it starts to activate.

It becomes foamy and creamy and you can rub this foamy cream on your skin to cleanse. Then simply rinse off with warm water.

Its not a conditioning bar, it’s a cleanser, so theres nothing left on the skin after rinsing. Its not drying, it just leaves soft clean skin.

I find this bar to smell like the other comforter scented products, though i definitely smell more of the bergamot note than in other comforter products.

I would recommend this. It was about £2.75

Heres my video sink demo

Conga jelly

4 or 5 out of 5 rating

Lush has introduced five or six jellies at their new Superstore at the Liverpool Spa.

All having Dance names. Conga is the pink one andis made with Raspberry juice!

It also has vanilla, davana oil, and bergamot.

Initially i thought this might be a scent twin of raspberry milkshake soap however ive asked and it isn’t. To me this jelly smells more like raspberries and cream instead of just straight raspberry. It seems more yummy.

It seems like its more conditioning than other lush jellies because of the moisturizing davana oil and skin softening carageenan seaweed.

I recorded a 4 minute video showing you how it looks out of the container. I also show how to wash with it at the sink.

“Come on shake your jelly baby, use this Conga! You can’t resist this sweet-scented lather any longer. Feel as almond milk makes your skin softer, don’t you fight it ‘til you’ve tried it! Lather up with this sweet treat.

No need to form a line to experience the fabulously foamy washes of this wibbly treat. Brightening raspberry juice and vanilla absolute add a sweet note, while almond milk ensures skin feels hydrated.”

List of ingredients

Bongo

5 out of 5 rating.

This is a new shower jelly, one of five whivh were i troduced at the new Lush Mega store at Lush Liverpool Spa.

This is another wonderful coconut scented Lush shower jelly, but different than the pineapple and coconut ‘Big Calm’ jelly. This Bongo jelly seems even creamier to me when i compare them side by side.

Bongo has a completely different scent than Big Calm. Bongo has mango in it as one of its main ingredients. I can smells the mango. I smell more coconut than mango though. And theres is coconut milk in here.

This Bongo jelly smells even more like coconut! It also seems to be more moisturizing.

You can see the different layers of color in my video below.

“For tropical fun and foam, you just can’t beat Bongo shower jelly! Packed with fresh, cleansing mango juice, and gently moisturising coconut milk, it’s the perfect cocktail of upbeat ingredients. There’s no need to drum it into you, once you’ve tried this sunny, skin softening shower jelly you’ll know there’s no bon-going back. ”

Tantric Energy

4 or 5 out of 5 rating. See my 3 minute close up sink demo of how it works, and i describe what scent family it’s scent is in the video below.

I love it. I wish it were a wee bit more moisturizing. But its near perfrct, im just being nitpicky lol. I love this product. I think evetyone should try it.

Mama Mia

5 out of 5 rating

I absolutely LOVE the yummy vanilla and pink grapefruit scent. I’m addicted.

See my sink demo and review Video Below.

Ectoplasm shower cream

5 out of 5 rating

i LOVE the Ectoplasm scent. Its been a long time since ive really loved a lush citrussy scent.

Exctoplasm has an addictive effervescent scent of grapefruit and tangerine. It smells like fizzy soda. Moreso than Bubble or Celebrate imo. Ectoplasm isnt as sweet as those. It actually makes my mouth water. Its got a strong sour lime grapefruit note.

I love that the solid or naked version glows in the dark.

It all started with the Ectoplasm jelly bath bomb of the same name.

After lush introduced the bath bomb for the first time in 2017 it was a hit. And the bath oil TreeD was also a hit. We told Mark we loved the scent and hoped someday he would make a perfume out of it.

The next year they introdiced this shower cream, a naked (solid) shower gel version, a solid perfume and a washcard.

By the Way – Lush made an Ectoplasm shower slime for Christmas 2021. Sept 23.

⭐️Here’s a link to my Ectoplasm shower slime for Halloween 2021 https://lushalot.com/2021/08/15/ectoplasm-slime/

Lush also made an exclusive Ectoplasm body spray fragrance in addition to the spray perfume and solid perfume.

This has the same wonderfully citrussy scent as the Ectoplasm Bath bomb.

I’ll review mine and demo both when i buy them at the creative showcase Sept 23.

Here is a demo video and review i recorded

The ‘Naked’ or solid form of the Ectoplasm gel

Scent Family Photo (Tree D solid bath oil is not in the picture)

This Lush ‘Tree D’ bath oil has the Ectoplasm scent too!

Not Sleepy shower bomb

I give this a 4 out of 5 rating.

This is one of the #LushLabs exclusive, limited edition shower bombs. Not to be confused with the Lush Labs new ‘Atmospheres’ shower gels.

This one of 10 completely different Lush shower bombs.

This is not to be confused with a Lush shower emotibomb, which is placed on the shower floor.

No, these shower bombs are for washing with.

I do a wet demo of it here in the 56 second video sink demo below.

Lush Labs at lush.co.uk has made four difderent kinds/scents of these new shower bombs; sleepy, not sleepy, karma, and kowataskaati.

This one, not sleepy, is for waking up. Its got lemon, lime and orange oils in it which are said to promote alertness and mental clarity.

After asking what the scent was i was told that Its a new scent that Mark Constantine made for this shower bomb.

The product is not cocoa butter based. It feels like a bath bomb. Maybe a firmer kind of bath bomb.

This will definitely last more than one shower.

The scent isn’t weak but its not very strong either.

The foam feels very nice. If you have sensitive skin just get some foam on your hands first, then apply to your body.

It rinses off very easily.

Then just towel yourself dry and thats it.

Its not gimmick-y, this seems to actually work with just adding water.

And its totally packageless.
