(Lush is selling this classic product once again on their website, as of October 29, 2025)
Shimmy Shimmy was a regular season long store item in 2002. In my photos below the price listed is the old price from many years ago.
Shimmy Shimmy was the originating product in this scent family. Later Lush made many different products called ‘American Cream’, and all of these originated from the scent of Shimmy Shimmy massage bar. Vanilla, Lavender, and Sage.
I bought Shimmy Shimmy massage bar in 2003. I loved the scent and the light iridescence of it when wearing it on the skin.
I took this Shimmy Shimmy/American Cream scent family many, many years ago to lrt people knowwhat items had the same scent, incase they liked or didn’t like the scent.

This deliciously self-centred chocolate body wash is packed with aloe vera and glycerine to soften and hydrate delicate skin.
How to use:
Completely vegan friendly, this is a great body wash for dry skin. Scoop out a good handful and inhale the rich cocoa aroma while you work it all over your body then rinse off.

100% RECYCLED POT
It’s got Cocoa powder, and cocoa absolute in it. It also has vanilla, sandalwood and hazelnut oil. It’s Deliciously hydrating and softening. This is the best product Lush has created in quite awhile imo. This smells more like straight up chocolate than any of the other chocolate things i’ve tried that Lush has made in the last 25 years. It does remind me of the scent of Lush Walter Bunny scrub.
I describe the texture in my video below, the consistency is like softened butter. The texture feels like a chocolate mouse in the pot and feels like silk when you rub it on your body.
Lush Uk made a Posh Chocolate shower gel for a few days only. I was lucky to buy a couple. 😊
Lush also made a body scrub of posh chocolate for a limited time.
Lush made a soap for Christmas 2025 called Yule Log. And a body lotion only available in one of the Christmas 2025 gift sets.
Lush also released a posh white chocolate and rose body wash for Mother’s Day 2025. Here it is next to posh chocolate. It’s got white chocolate instead of dark chocolate, and it also has rose oil in it.
Eventually lush made a body wash, shower gel, body scrub, soap, and body lotion in the posh chocolate scent. Each has its own review page here on my website with pictures and descriptions. I’m in love with this scent.
there was also a body butter made that i used and then threw away the container, otherwise it would be in the above group picture.
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!
The Strawberry Whip soap was also made with this scent.
The Lush bubble bar next to my container of Strawberry Twin Tub is called ‘Two Timing Tart’, which was made in the Strawberry Twin Tub scent.
Lush 2005 description: We’ve finally given in to pressure and made a strawberry shower gel, but as we’re Lush, there’s no way it was going to resemble anyone else’s synthetic strawberry products. For starters, ours has real strawberries in it, plus immensely expensive, soothing jasmine essential oil and sweetly scented geranium. You don’t get those in your chain store bottled stuff, oh no! Strawberry Twin Tub was inspired by the need to keep a couple of young twins quiet at bath time. Buy two, and let them throw wobbly jellies at each other until they’re nice and clean and ready for bed. (Adults may do the same thing, if they like.)
Castle in the Clouds is another newsr lush product with the same scent.
Review: This jelly was made by Lush to smell like their discontinued bubble bar called “Two Timing Tart”. The jelly is a nice balance of fruity and floral. This was made by Lush UK for another mom of twins “Twinmum” from the International forum.
Lush Times: Sweet delicious Vanilla Fountain fragrance – tonka bean, jasmine and heaps of vanilla absolute. At the time of writing, we’ve not had the chance to put this to a real live test; we’ve used it on our arms in the creative team meeting, sniffed it with enthusiasm and longing, but as yet, we haven’t been able to take them home with us, smooth them all over our lovers’ bodies to see what happens next. Heavanilly’s melty butters smell of sensual jasmine, vanilla and tonka – and cinder toffee – so we can guess.
I love this massage bar. Out of the 60 or so different Lush massage bars, Heavanilli is one of my favorites. Its made in the Lush ‘Vanillary’ perfume fragrance. Lush has made many products with this popular perfume scent.
I would recommend it. I enjoy using it and Its one that i would buy again and again.
I took a photo below of some Vanillary scent family members 😊
in addition to my photos below i could have sworn i did a review video of Sappho while spraying it on me, but i cant find it on my youtube channel. ill keep looking.
“For a limited time only, 30ml bottles of this perfume will be available to order online. This perfume and the rest of The Florence Collection are also available in 100ml bottles in your nearest perfume library.”
Sappho is one of five perfumes which are only sold at the Florence, Italy Perfume Library store. But Lush Uk has them temporarily on their retail site uk.lush.com
I happened to be on the site looking at the mothers day products and saw them there!
I wanted to like Sappho so much. I bought it because the ingredients vanilla, jasmine, sandalwood, tonka, orris, tobacco and anise. so it seemed perfect.
You’ll love this if you like: – Powdery vanilla scents. – Vanillary perfume. – Sunny sapphic sensuality on a Greek island.
But when i spray it on, it smells great for a minute then these note come through thats like spiced, jasmine and tobacco and this overrides the lovely vanilla quality. On me though. Your mileage may vary depending on each person’s skin chemistry.
If the underlying licorice-like note wasnt there it would be so good, but unfortunately it burns my nose, just turns strange and is way too strong with my body chemistry. The part thats left over long after its dried down hours later is aactually kind of nice. soft and vanilla like, but it takes literally hours to become this nice scent.
“Fell in love with a girl?
Bittersweet and inescapable, this ode to a striking poetess, the Tenth Muse, will shake your senses. Classical orris entwines with carnal jasmine to enchant deep desires.”
Lush has recently ooened up their biggest store world wide in liverpool. They introduced 350 new products starting at this store. One of these was this bath bomb.
Lush decided to have them available on their lush.co.uk retail site. Thats where i bought this.
Lush made this in their ‘Vanillary’ perfume scent. Its a yummylicous blend of creamy sweet vanilla tonka bean, grounding sandalwood, and sensual jasmine floral. Just the right amount.
This bath bomb is strong wuth the vanillary scent. Smells like sweet vanilla caramel custard pudding. YUM. Yet theres a subtle sensualness to it because of the sandalwood and jasmine.
Im sorry i didnt buy two.
The green and peach colors combine to make pretty bath art.
The combination ultimately making a peridot green color.
See my 8 minute video below. I worked very hard in this video to describe exactly what the scent smells like so you can make your best purchasing choices. 🙂
Here is a photo i took of the Lush products made in this scent.
This bottle below came from a giftset i bought.
Below is a photo i took with all the Lush American Cream items at the time.
the liquid version is on the thin side.
oddly i enjoyed washing with the naked version below a bit more.
American Cream is a vanilla based scent which also has clary sage, and lavender as its scent components. The hair conditioner added strawberry. The other American Cream products have strawberry in them…but….American Cream products do not smell like strawberry. It’s made with strawberry, it’s not strawberry scented.
This bottle bow was made again years later in July 2024.
I like to make that clear, so that people won’t spend their hard earned money on something that they think will be strawberry scented, only to be disappointed when it’s not.
See my 6 minute sink demo of both the potted and naked versions video below.
I love that Lush made a body conditioner from one of its popular hair conditioner (American Cream) fragrance. And i like that they named it American Pie like the exclusive shower jelly from a couple of years back from lush.co.uk
Here is the regular and solid American Pie conditioner from 2014
The fragrance of it is akin to a vanilla milkshake. In fact the hair conditioner which started this all was made to mimic an American cocktail which tastes like a vanilla milkshake.
Lush has made more than a dozen different products in this same blend of vanilla, lavender, clary sage and strawberry juice.
Think of this as a hair conditioner for the body. In my demo video i show how to apply it and how to rinse it off.
This works well for me. I live in the desert southwest and my skin is VERY dry and this works really well at moisturizing without feeling greasy or oily.
Here is the 2014 pot and solid form of American Pie body conditioner
Here is a newer pot of it in 2025 from the monthly subscription box.
American Cream is a vanilla based scent which also has clary sage, and lavender as its scent components. The hair conditioner added strawberry. The other American Cream products have strawberry in them…but….American Cream products do not smell like strawberry. It’s made with strawberry, it’s not strawberry scented. And in the perfumery industry there IS a difference between those two sentences. I like to make that clear, so that people won’t spend their hard earned money on something that they think will be strawberry scented, only to be disappointed when it’s not.
And rest assured Lush doesn’t claim the American cream scent smells like strawberry either. I know because I’ve talked the the owner of lush about this very thing.
Now, onto what it DOES smell like, to most people, including myself. It smells like creamy vanilla, with a light whiff of herbal clary sage and a pinch of herb-y lavender. I like it.
I’d give it a 3 1/2 out of 5 rating.
Below i’ll list what is shown and what isn’t shown in my photo above.
From newest to oldest:
Two more different bath bombs in 2024 and 2025 that were both called American Cream and looked completely different. One is white with pink stars and the other is pink.
A white shimmery reusable bubble bar with a flower on it that originally came out just for the Lush Harajuku store.
American Cream body conditioner (potted and solid)
Lush has opened up a new store in the Harajuku area of Japan. At this new, special store Lush will sell 35-50 exclusive bath bombs. One of these exclusive Japan Harajuku store bombs isMarshmallow World.
Its made with the popular scent of a Lush hair conditioner called ‘American Cream’, which is an herbal vanilla blend.
It’s made with strawberries for their skin properties , not for the primary scent. The scent is sage-which is a bitter herb-and vanilla, and we all know what vanilla smells like. So put bitter herbs and vanilla together with a bit of lavender, which is even more of an herbally flower, and you have the American Cream scent.
I like to stress this fact that it doesn’t exactly smell like strawberry because i always see disappointed people writing lush comments like ‘but it doesnt smell like strawberries like some of your other strawberry scented things’.
Now, what this bomb looks like. 😍
Marshmallow World is such a pretty bomb on the outside, with lovely pink and having purple and yellow striations. It pooks like an unfamilair but fun planet.
It fizzes and makes a baby pink foam and turns the water a light pink color. This bomb must have somethung special in it which is softening to the skin. It feels moisturizing a bit.
What a beautiful scent. While American Cream scent isn’t my favorite, i don’t hate it either by any means. Its a calming scent to me. I think its quite a meditative scent..with a teaspoon of yumminess thrown in.
Lush has made three other bath bombs in the past years with the American Cream scent with different names. But i must say this is the prettiest version.
It doesnt make full-on bath art per se, but it is still beautiful as it fizzes in the tub.
I would stock up on these like i did with some of the other community favorites/Japan store bombs like ‘Tender is the Night’, ‘The Comforter’, ‘Melusine’, and ‘Golden Pear’.
My tub demo
If youre an American Cream lover than i suggest you stock up on these limited edition beauties!
Lush description: Indulge in a sugar bath scented with American Cream – you’ll get all of the sweet-shop glee and none of the post-binge guilt. Vanilla scented with a touch of strawberry, this multi-coloured marvel is a fiesta of fizz. Marshmallow powder soothes and softens, while granulated sugar adds a sugary flourish, you’ll smell good enough to eat!
This is a face mask made as a limited edition for Christmas 2018.
Its made with cocoa, vanilla, tangerine, orange, carageenan, fullers earth, and rhassoul mud.
Both rhasshoul mud and fullers earth are fantastic at zapoing oil on the skin.
I have dry skin, and it zapped any spec of oil i had on my skin.
The texture is nice and silky. It feels like pudding. Not like the more chunky texture of the Lush bio fresh face masks they sell in store.
This is like the texture of lush birth of venus face mask.
Oh, also, the red nose looks like half a cherry but is actually the same mixture as the mask. Cool!
This smells mostly of chocolate. Its like wiping brownie batter on ones face, but in the best possible way.
The carageenan made my skin noticeable softer. That was a wow.
The only teason i didnt rate this a 5 is because its not the proper one for my skin type. If you have oilier skin im sure you’ll find this a 5 out of 5 star rated product.
Yeah, this isnt Snow Fairy scented firstly. Just wanted to get that out of the way.
This is Creamy Candy scented. Lush makes a bubble bar year round called ‘Creamy Candy’ in stores. Well every Christmas Lush makes a christmas themed Creamy Candy bubble bar and calls it ‘Candy Mountain.
Historically its looked kind of like a unicorn horn shape.
This year however, Lush has re-designed their Christmas Candy Mountain. It looks quite different. It has more of a laser cut mountain design. I like it, its more refined than past years Candy Mountain.
The reason people confuse this with snow fairy is because the two scents creamy candy and snow fairy/candy fluff are similar, but yhey are different and made with different scent ingredients such as synthetic musk and vanilla in varying degrees. Snow Fairy/Candy Fluff adds clove bud leaf.
This Candy Mountain has extra skin conditioning ingredients in it, moreso than other Lush bubble bars.
I recorded a 1 minute tub demo of it for you below
The Keep It Fluffy scent was one of 12 different scents families product lines sold at the Lush sister company called “B Nnever Too Busy To Be beautiful” boutique in London from 2005-2009 or thereabouts. The Lush website had a tab for their B Never store and if you clicked on it it would take you to the B Never store retail website so you could buy things and even have them delivered to the U.S.A. naturally i took advantage of that service.
One of my favorite Keep It Fluffy items from that boutique was the bubble bar, in my picture below. It’s on the bottom right, pink with a red rose in the middle.
Lush will be making it again 20 years later in the upcoming February 2026 subscription box.
If you’ve ever tried The Lush turkish rose shower smoothie, that was made in the Keep It Fluffy scent. You can see my vintage glass bottle of it that came in the Keep It Fluffy gift set that i bought in my pics below from 2006.
It a soft, young, fresh rose scent, not an old lady rose scent, even though i’m an old lady 😊.
My bottle of Keep it Fluffy shower gel. Ive had tbree versions of this in the last 20 years that ive been using lush.
In my picture above are my now empty Original cut crystal Keep It Fluffy perfume on the left from 2006, and a new bottle on the right from 2019. The pink one in the middle is a Lush bubble bar recently made in Lush UK called ‘Keep It Fluffy Bubble Bottle’.
I have all the Keep It Fluffy products Lush/B Never made from 2006 onwards to the present 2023.
Keep It Fluffy was at one time my favorite of the 15 fragrance lines that Lush sold at their sister store ‘B Never Too Busy To Be Beautiful‘ 2005-2008. Keep It Fluffy was a large line of products. Its a light and pretty fragrance. Its got rose petal infusion, vanilla, jasmine, lemongrass, and ylang ylang.
When i smell Keep It Fluffy I usually smell the rose petal infusion, then the Ylang Ylang and jasmine. I dont usually pick up the lemongrass.
Here’s my pic of the body spray from 2006.
Some people don’t like it, and some people love it. So id go by the notes if youre trying to make a decision on buying or not.
If youre familiar with the Lush/B Never ‘Two Hearts’ fragrance..its *somewhat* similar notes, except Two Hearts is more jasmine forward and has no vanilla or lemongrass.
Lush made the bath bomb again, once around 2008.
There are some kinds of products that carry the KiF scent better than others. Lush had a bath bomb which was lovely and so was the soap. The perfume is iffy because i have the originals to compare it to and for sone reason the original is better scented. It should be the other way around right? The older one shouldnt smell better than the new one. So this tells me that Lush is using less of some ingredient than they used to.
A new 2025 Keep It Fluffy soap that Lush sells on their website and in stores.
Keep It Fluffy soap
Also, if youve used or smelled the Lush ‘Turkish Delight’ smoothie, that is made with the KiF scent. I love the scent in the smoothie.
Here’s an empty bottle of one of my Lush Keep It Fluffy perfumes. Lush made these cut crystal bottles. The one next to it was a body spray.
This is one of my ‘if you were on a deserted island’ Lush perfumes.
Here’s my video
In my photo below I gathered all my Keep It Fluffy products. The container was a handmade Lush Keep It Fluffy gift set container.
rose petal infusion, jasmine flower infision, vanilla, lemon grass and ylang ylang.
It’s a beautiful, innocent soft floral with citrus notes. Its not sweet. Well maybe a tiny bit sweet. Very little.
I have a bunch of Lush Keep it Fluffy things. Some of the containers are empty. And i still have bubble bars, empty shower gels and other bath stuff in this scent. Myself and others have been hinting to Mark C from Lush about re-making keep it fluffy for a few years now.
And the Lush Kitchen did remake the shower gel, (below) yay!! In 2025 for one of the monthly Subscription boxes.
Maybe someday. I can always hope.
Above is my empty bottle of ‘Rose Tinted Spectacles’ which was a liquid bubble bath that was sold at the B Never store and its the Keep It Fluffy scent.
ETA: As of 2021 Lush now sells this perfume again! I think it’s limited edition.
The ‘Keep It Fluffy bubble bottle’ bubble bar on the left is in the same shape as the perfume bottle. Lush made these in 2019
Heres a keep it fluffy bath bomb thst Lush made as a Lush product and wasn’t at their B Never boutique.
Also in the Keep It Fluffy scent is the ‘Funny Face’ Fun bar, which was exclusive and free at a Lush Event in England for one night. A very lovely woman got one for me 🙏🏼❤️
Funny Face was an old movie with Audrey Hepburn. The exclusive Lush cinema were giving out fun bars with the Keep It Fluffy scent.
The lights in the display room were a pink neon
In my photo above are all my products from B Never back in the day. i still have the cleaned out, empty containers in a box in my lush room closet.
5 out of 5 rating. See my Tub Demo video of it that I recorded for you below
I took a picture of the big stack of them at the creative showcase.
A golden shimmer all over the bath bomb.
I bought the little iron on patch for each of the creative showcase bombs.
This is a Lush Cosmetics bath bomb made exclusively for the New Lush Japan Naked ship opening at the beginning of the new year.
From the upper left going clockwise:
I can’t remember the name of this first one, Kitsume, Black Rose, Royalty, Harajuku, God is a Woman (name changed to Goddess) , and Hulder.
Hulder is my favorite – Because of the look of it, AND the scent, AND how it makes the water look after its dissolved in the tub.
Jack Constantine was kind enough to give me and another attendee one of each of the six exclusive bath bombs. However i had already bought two when i was at the showcase the orevious day.
So i have one left for a Giveaway! 😊
Here’s a Bathtub Demo of it that I recorded for you
Royalty bath bomb is made with jasmine and vanilla. the lush person at the Creative Showcase told me there was also sandalwood in it.
A Gold Crown. What’s not to like?
The scent of Royalty reminds me of The Lush ‘Vanillary’ scent except this adds sandalwood.
I don’t know if they add conditioning things in this bath bomb but it definitely seems to be more conditioning than most lush bath bombs. The water almost becomes milky.
There is a beautiful gold shimmer in the water. Not too much though.
3 out of 5 rating. See my video review and sink demo below.
A soap for the holidays in the cold pressed style. I believe this particular one is more moisturizing with extra coconut oil if I’m not mistaken. A cold pressed soap is the same consistency as the current Lush Uk ‘Mechanic’ and ‘Gardner’ soaps.
Here are all the Christmas 2017 products with the popular pink, vanilla sweeties ‘Snow Fairy’ fragrance.
Lush limited edition shower jelly made with their ‘Think Pink’ bath bomb fragrance, which includes Golden Syrup, Lavender Oil, Tonka Absolute, Vanilla Absolute, Neroli Oil, Organic Coconut Milk, and Brown Sugar.
Here’s a demo video and more in depth review that I recorded of this jelly
I’m not one for Candyish Lush scents, not at all, except when it comes to Snow Fairy. I am just nuts about this gel at times, it’s scent is just something I’ve got to have once in a while. It’s scent is buttery, rich, candyish…almost raspberryish and a small hit of fruitiness. It has a shimmer of pink and fushia sparkles.
Lush 2006 Description: Candy floss pink and sweet as sugar with iridescent sparkles and a hint of wicked fruitiness….
Here are a couple of video demos and reviews i made of both versions of this Lush shower gel and you can see them up close and how they work
