Lush Haul

0 Comments


Recently I decided I was in need of some papering. I had been through a diagnosis, a stressful university situation and moving back home and it's hard to not try and look for the next thing to help me in the future. So as I was wading through prospectuses and PIP forms I was having trouble sleeping, which is not uncommon to me at all, and so I turned to relaxing baths. 
Lush has long been my favourite brand for bath products and I always loved checking out new skincare or soaps when I had a job. As I was saving money I had to cut down on my spending and so bath bombs were not a priority, however I almost always buy something as a present for a loved one at christmas. I am still saving money but realised that the only thing that would physically make me relax (which is a major part of my recovery programme) was a bath and so I splashed out on a few lush products. 
When the box arrived I instantly smelt lavender and was very excited. As I waded through the packing foam the excitement grew until I found my products, like buried treasure. 
The first one I found was the 'Twilight' bath bomb. 

This lavender scented delight was a beautiful shade of purple and is one of my all time favourites from Lush. It contains golden glitter and moisturises your skin which makes the bath even more luxurious as the soothing lavender relaxes you. The bath bomb gently fizzes changing the water different shades of a sunset as you drift off.

Then there was the solid bath oil 'Dreamtime'.

This is an ingenious product from Lush. A solid bath oil scented with a lavender outer shell which slowly melts away to release the even more relaxing scents and bath oils. A perfect bed time treat, to send you off to dreamtime...

 The next one was the Christmas 'Yog Nog' bath bomb.

This sweet bath bomb is a novel take on the christmassy drink, Egg Nog. It smells good enough to eat and has sugary glitter on it. A yummy end to a wintry day.

Then I saw the stick of 'Golden Handshake' poking out of the foam and grabbed it. 

I haven't seen anything like this before so am very excited to use it. It's a hot hand mask which relaxes and hydrates tired, winter skin. I have yet to test it but it has a lovely subtle rose scent.

Next was 'Golden Slumbers' bath bomb from the Lush Kitchen.

This one I ordered off the Lush kitchen, which is where they make a small quantity of different discontinued products each day. It is heavily scented of lavender and jam packed with gold glitter. I love this product and is one of the only things that relaxes me when I'm super stressed.

Finally I rescued the 'Magnaminty' self preserving face and body mask from the sea of packing shapes.

This mint choc chip icecream scented face mask is the item I was most excited to try. It's a clay based mask with macadamia grains to help exfoliate and draw out impurities from the skin. Its a lovely cooling formula and claims to fight spots so I am optimistic that it will help my skin. 

Then I realised that the lovely people at Lush had thrown in some free samples as well and even an iron on badge! 


 Altogether a lovely haul and I will enjoy papering myself this winter. 

Take care
