  • Lush – Lord of Misrule

    Lush – Lord of Misrule

    The weather’s feeling suitably Autumnal, so what better addition to your bath, than a Lord of Misrule bath bomb? One of those bath bombs which you hope will return each year,  Lord of Misrule was so popular in my local Lush last year, that it sold out before the Christmas sale! Lord of Misrule has a distinctive…

  • Lush – Jumping Juniper

    Lush – Jumping Juniper

    Previously only available online, I discovered the Jumping Juniper shampoo bar in my local Lush store recently, and decided to give it a try. I’ve been using New! and Montalbano most frequently, but decided my hair deserved a change. Made with a Rosemary and Lavender infusion plus Juniperberry oil, Jumping Juniper has a relaxing aroma, which I…

  • Lush – Monsters’ Ball

    Lush – Monsters’ Ball

    It’s been a while since I wrote anything about Lush products, hasn’t it? The summer was just too hot to even consider having a soak in the bath (before you say anything, I had showers instead!), but now we’re getting some Autumnal weather, it’s the perfect time to check out the Halloween stock at Lush!…

  • Snowdrop gift box

    Snowdrop gift box

    Following on from Snap! here’s the second gift box I purchased in the Lush Christmas sale – Snowdrop. This one didn’t have a tag (nor a price), so I just went on what the little sticky label on the base told me about the contents. Because the packaging label was missing (there were lots of…

  • Snap! Gift box

    Snap! Gift box

    I don’t normally buy gift boxes from Lush, but in the sale (which incidentally was not online this year, but in-store only) they didn’t have any individual items left that I was after, so I bought a couple of the half price gift boxes instead. Snap! is normally £16.50 (£8.25 in the sale), and contains…

  • Luxury Lush Pud

    Luxury Lush Pud

    Ok, I know it’s not exactly seasonal, but I used my Luxury Lush Pud this week, and had to blog about it! As you drop it into the bath, it starts fizzing immediately – the aroma of Tonka and Lavender (which incidentally is shared with Twilight) makes for a very relaxing bath, while not being overpowering. I’m not a fan…

  • The Sacred Truth fresh face mask

    The Sacred Truth fresh face mask

    Did you know that if you take in 5 empty (and clean!) full-size black Lush pots into a Lush store, you can exchange them for a free fresh face mask? Yes, you read that right – free! Considering that the fresh face masks usually cost £6.75, that’s a very generous gift just for taking back the…

  • Baked Alaska Soap

    Baked Alaska Soap

    Another soap from the Christmas 2015 range, Baked Alaska was particularly eyecatching cut open in the store, with its frosted white exterior hiding a vibrant multicoloured interior. Baked Alaska has a very strong lemony aroma, which is suitably refreshing to use as a bath soap – I think it would be a bit too overpowering as a…

  • Honey I Washed My Hair (original version)

    Honey I Washed My Hair (original version)

    Honey I Washed My Hair might not be the most creative name in the world, but the shampoo bar is fantastic! I was a little concerned that the honey might be inclined to make my hair greasy, but it doesn’t have that effect. Smelling strongly of toffee and fudge, it’s a little more intense in aroma…

  • Yog Nog Soap

    Yog Nog Soap

    Before I start, I will just point out that Yog Nog is a seasonal soap, and is currently not available for sale. However, it has been in the Christmas range for at least the last 2 years, and I hope it’ll be there for years to come too! Yog Nog is a pretty strange name for…
