Holiday Lush Haul

Not too long ago I found myself at Lush.  They had their holiday items out, and there was no way I was walking out of the mall without at least buying one...or two items! 

I've heard some great things about their holiday products, so I decided it was time for me to give them a shot.

Gold Wonder is a monster.  It's a huge bath bomb covered with shimmer!  I was warned by the representative at the store that this particular bath bomb held a surprise.  However, I am cheap and I was determined to get two uses out of one bomb.  So, I cut it in half and ruined the surprised.  I strongly don't recommend doing this!  This bomb gets super crumbly.

 

 

I got a small sliver of Angels Delight soap.

This smells so fun, fresh and fruity.  I love it.  The color is also a bright pink and includes stars, which is a bonus.

 

 

 

Snow Cake soap is by far my favorite holiday soap.  It features a very sparkly gold dust on the top, but a milky white body.  It smells like milk and almonds.  It's a soapy drug for me.  I love it!

 

 

I also picked up Shoot for the Stars bath bomb.  I enjoyed this bath bomb, it's perfect for a bath right before bedtime.  It smells of like Lush's popular soap, Honey I Washed the Kids.  The bath water turned a really pretty purple blue with this one.

 

 

My skin has declared a war, so I decided to try a Lush face product on it.  This is my first face product from Lush, and I really love the smell.  It's hard to see from the photo, but it has Lavender in it.  This is perfect for Lavender addicts.

 

 

This bubble bar was great to use on Christmas night.  It helped to unwind the hype of the holidays.  It smelled very relaxing and made loads of bubbles.

 

 

Cinders is a smaller bath bomb, but it was one of my favorites I purchased.  It has a spicy aroma which is perfect for the season.  What I really liked, is that during the bath you may hear crinkling or crackling.  The bath bomb is packed with what it appears to be, pop candy.  While laying in the bath, the pop candy will pop.  It's very fun.  I really don't think it's pop candy in this bath bomb, but it's the best description for it.

 

I hope you enjoyed my haul.  Lush is currently holding a buy one, get one free sale.  You can bet that I placed another order!

 

Until next time,

 

Lush Haul

The boy took me to our nearest Lush cosmetics store to pick up more Lush goodies.  He has fallen in love with the bath bombs!

Here's what we both picked up:

I picked up the Little Green Bag which includes a good variety of items for around $26 dollars.  The items were all neatly stashed in a little green bag that is made of 100% organic cotton and incorporates the Japenese wrapping method of Furoshiki. 

This is what is inside the Little Green Bag:
sugar scrub
sexy peel soap
each peach massage bar
squeaky green solid shampoo
and a reusable tin for storing the solid shampoo

I heard some good things about the Lush dry shampoo, so I picked up No Drought.  I purchased the smaller version just in case I didn't like it.  I haven't really given the product a shot yet, but I am already happy to know it is chemical free.  I am not so excited about how I will be applying this to my hair.  I have a feeling the entire product will come rushing down on to my head and face.  We shall see if I can conquer and manipulate this product. 

The boy wanted to pick up bath bombs so we went with Sex Bomb (it smells soooo good!).  The neat thing about this bath bomb is watching the transformation of the little flower bloom.  So neat!

The Comforter smelled too good to pass up, so the boy and I purchased this too.  The sales associate told us that although it cost about $11 we would get lots of uses out of it.  I hope you are right, sales associate!  I hope you're right.  We learned that in order to get the most of out of the bubble bars, one just needs to crumble a few chunks.  Not the entire thing.

Believe it or not, the boy desperately wanted to purchase Mr. Bumble.  I am not sure why...but he needed it bad.

Stored inside of Mr. Bumble we found the Honey bee bath bomb and a sample size of my favorite soap, Honey I washed the kids.  I really like the bumble bee cloth wrap, it's super cute. 
To make the most out of our expensive haul, I have cut each bath bomb in half.  I have also cut each soap, massage bar and the bubble bar for multiple uses.  Let's face it, Lush is expensive so why not spread that penny a little further?

I hope you enjoyed the lush haul, until next time...
