Buy One Set One Free Bath Bomb

This is what Lush are all about: products that question and educate; that raise awareness and uncover the grit that others are trying to suppress. This is why I stand and support Lush, because not only do they educate me on political affairs that I might never have heard of otherwise, but primarily because they're the voice for the voiceless. They stand for causes worth fighting for, and do it because they genuinely care about having an impact.

Almost three years ago, British father of three, Andy Tsege was kidnapped and taken to Ethiopia, where he is currently being held on death row. He is not able to see his family, neither has he been granted access to a lawyer. His human rights have been stolen from him and all he can do is await his fate. March 20th 2017 will mark his 1000th day behind bars.

What is frustrating (but not exactly shocking) is the fact that Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has the power to negotiate a possible safe return to the UK for Andy. Yet, so far, the British Government have failed in its duty to ensure that he is reunited with his family.

Every penny made from the sale of the Buy One Set One Free Bath Bombs (minus the VAT) will go towards Reprieve: an organisation that offers free legal and investigative support to some of the world’s most vulnerable people: those facing execution, and those victimised by states’ abusive counter-terror policies – rendition, torture, extrajudicial imprisonment and extrajudicial killing. This includes Andy's case to be freed from execution, and brought home to his family.

On a far lighter note, this bath bomb is an exclusive opportunity for fans of The Smell Of Freedom perfume, to enjoy something else in this same scent. And what a marvel it is. Packed full of heady jasmine; sweet, woody orris oil; and fruity lemongrass, Buy One Set One Free Bath Bomb is a resinous, well-rounded, smoky aroma. 

Firstly, I must say that the fragrance is perfectly suited for this format: I'm surprised Lush haven't done something like this before. You can smell all of the different components in this ballistic, despite the format usually hindering fragrances from reaching their full potential. The jasmine offers a gentle floral sweetness, while the fir free oil wraps a light smokiness around the former. Together, these two components offer something both fresh and smokey - warming and exotic. Both the lemongrass and the neroli are fairly subtle in the mix, and although you can smell the presence of both, neither stand out as being overly strong or dominating.

Although I would usually slate bath bombs such as this, which are fairly boring to watch and look at in the water, I appreciate the reason why such a product has been released and this is enough for me to appreciate the gesture. In the water, Buy One Set One Free fizzes across the surface, releasing plumes of pastel peach colour into the water. 

While the fragrance isn't at all potent, it did manage to hold up during my experience in the water. I was able to smell this throughout, even when I was using other products to clean myself with. Furthermore, it left a very subtle sweet, woody scent on my skin as well, which I topped up with a dash of The Smell Of Freedom.

Overall, this bath bomb offers something that Lush have never done before, while also bringing to light a very serious and equally important cause. This bath bomb has not only educated me on a situation that needs to be addressed by those in power, but has also, on a more lighter note, helped me to fall in love with this fragrance all over again.

Quantitative Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Jasmine Absolute, Orris Oil, Fire Tree Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Neroli Oil, *Citral, *Eugenol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Alpha-Isomethyl, ionone, Perfume, Colour 15510.

Funny Face FUN Bar

Before the Lush Kitchen released both this and the popular Keep It Fluffy Bath Bomb earlier this year, I had read about this amazing scent family but had never had the privilege of trying anything out first hand. While I saw the potential in the bath bomb when it arrived, I wasn't particularly bowled over by its performance. For this reason, it wasn't until this little beauty came into my life that I was finally able to appreciate how incredible this fragrance is, and now I dream of getting my hands on a fresh bottle of the liquid perfume.

Funny Face FUN Bar first made an appearance at the Lush Summit event earlier this year - a product that was initially overlooked because of the excitement surrounding many of the other exclusives that had made themselves known at the same time. However, a little hype was enough to get the Lush community into a bit of a frenzy, and the product sold out very quickly in the Lush Kitchen a few weeks later.   

Containing both vanilla and jasmine, this limited edition FUN Bar has an aroma that is so beautifully delicate, that it is this very subtlety that makes it as exquisite as it is. Showcasing a sweet and rather musky floral scent, there is something rather innocent and child-like about this smell - yet one that also offers something that is quite old-fashioned - to my senses at least.

It's what I would describe as being a very light, feminine fragrance. The notes of vanilla and rose really compliment each other - producing a musky, almost powdery floral aroma that is as sweet as it is sensual. It's a very 'pink' smelling fragrance, and reminds me a little of the scent you get when using a powderpuff.

Despite the light, delicate floral smells, there is something very foody about it at times. Don't get me wrong: it's not a smell that tantalises your tastebuds - just one reminiscent of icing sugar and sweet things - a powdery collaboration of what you might expect an old jar of marshmallows to smell like, from an old-fashioned sweet shop.

Despite the subtly of the overall fragrance, I was really surprised to discover that the scent was robust enough to last on the skin. Furthermore, I was impressed that I could still smell remnants of the aroma a good while after I had exited the shower. While it wasn't exactly the most moisturising affair (none of the FUN bars can offer this much), it did leave me feeling soft and clean - perhaps a little more successfully than most soaps would.

  

As with all of Lush's FUN bars, you can use this one in replacement of a shower gel, bubble bar or shampoo. To create bubbles in your bath, simply break off the amount that you wish to use and hold it under the running water. If you're using it in the shower, take a small grape-sized piece, add a little water and lather between your hands. 

My only warning about Funny Face is that you have to ensure that the product is kept both cool and dry in between uses. In addition, you need to ensure that the bar is stored in a container if you wish to keep it in the bathroom. If left exposed, FUN Bars will sweat and melt, and leave a horrible mess all over the counter it's perched on.

Overall, this product has done nothing but intensify my cravings for either a perfume or a body lotion in this fragrance, and I only hope that Lush will satisfy these urges at some point in the near future. I also hope that this FUN Bar makes a reappearance as well, as I could happily buy a couple more to tide me over.  

Quantitative Ingredients: Cornflour, Talc, Glycerine, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Lemongrass oil, Ylang Ylang Oil, Vanilla Absolute, Jasmine Absolute, Benzyl Benzoate, Citral, Citronellol.

Love Apple Bubble Bar

In case you haven't picked up the subtle hints that I have been throwing out for a number of years now, I am very much in love with Lush. While I have been a collector of many things across the years, no other interest has held my attention for this length of time, and no other hobby has maintained the level of devotion that I have for this company. It is products such as this that reaffirm why I support and brandish Lush across social media on a daily basis, and why I am not even tempted to invest in other cosmetics outside of the brand.

Love Apple Bubble Bar is a product that hasn't seen the light of day in well over ten years - a bubble bar that I assumed would remain lost in the Lush vaults for eternity. An original B Never Too Busy To Be Beautiful product, this limited edition gem has everything you could ask for: a strong, long-lasting fragrance; a wonderful, eye-catching design; and an ingredients list boasting enough oils to make this a perfectly moisturising experience.     

Sharing its scent with the Love family, including the popular Fizzbanger Bath Bomb, this Kitchen exclusive is a joy to behold from the word go. With lemongrass, jasmine, bergamot, rose and ylang ylang as  key notes, this is both a fruity and a floral experience - one that is as rich as it is refreshing, and definitely something that will satisfy those of you with a taste for something sweet.

At the forefront, my nose detects a robust, powerful burst of bergamot oil and lemongrass. These fresh and fruity ingredients offer a strong, almost 'tangy' thread of scent, while at the same time offering a burst of grassiness that makes this fragrance so special. It is not strictly a citrus smell at all - there is so much compacted into this aroma, that I can imagine some people might be a little overwhelmed with how much you get with each sniff.

Underneath this slightly tart aroma, both the jasmine and the rose absolute offer small, sweet bursts of floral - both of which round the scent of this together wonderfully, and create multiple layers to help build up the Love fragrance. There is definitely something quite heavy about this aroma, and it reminds me a little of the smell you get when peeling back the skin and rind of a citrus fruit, combined with subtle musky notes of floral to round the scent together. Finally, the inclusion of the cinnamon stick on top offers a very light sprinkle of warmth.

As if the smell isn't exquisite enough, Love Apple Bubble Bar works like a treat in the bath. You only have to squeeze it gently for it to crumble away, although this isn't to say that the product is going to fall apart in your hands if you don't want it to. While I chose to use the whole piece in a single bath, this could easily be divided across two or three baths, and it would still offer a scent strong enough to be detected for miles around.

Once crumbled under the running water, it doesn't take very long for the tub to fill up with light, fluffy, fragrant bubbles, and these bubbles tend to stick around for the most part of your bath. The water also turns a radiant pink colour, which elevates your mood somewhat and makes for an incredible experience. 

What I loved about this bubble bar was that the scent was strong enough to remain present for the full 50 minutes I was in the bath tub, as well as leave a gentle impression on the skin afterwards. It was strong enough that I could still detect it after using a variety of shower gels and scrubs. However, it wasn't so strong that it was smothering, like I find Fizzbanger can be at times.

Although the water wasn't as moisturising as the likes of The Brightside and Sunflower Bubble Bar, it was still really impressive. My skin felt soft and radiant after getting out of the bath, and I definitely noticed an improvement to what my skin was like before I got in. 

While I tend to take less baths in the summer months, merely because I rely on cold showers, this is definitely a product that I would use if I was going to have one. It's light and juicy in scent, and offers a radiant experience that mirrors the warmer weather outside. Another amazing release from the Lush Kitchen for sure. 

Quantitative Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Cream of Tartar, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, *Glycerine, Perfume, Lemongrass Oil, Jasmine Absolute, Bergamot Oil, Rose Absolute, Ylang Ylang Oil, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Benzyl Salicylate, *Cinnamal, *Citral, *Farnesol, *Geraniol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Oak Moss Extract, Coumarin, Chlorophyllin, Colour 45410, Colour 14700, Colour 17200, Cinnamon Stick, Kaffir Lime Leaf.

Smugglers Soul Solid Shampoo Bar

While I usually opt to use the limited edition perfumes that I own, there are a few regular-line ones that I always revert back to on occasions. Smuggler's Soul Liquid Perfume in my number one choice from Lush's extensive fragrance collection, and there has never been a time when I've used the perfume and not felt better afterwards. 

Initially, it was rather disappointing when Lush brought out their exclusive Father's Day range for the first time last year, and I discovered that the solid shampoo bar was labelled as vegetarian only. However, with a slight change of ingredients and an improved formula, 2017 has seen the seasonal product turn vegan, and we are all the better for it.

Described as being both poignant and smoky, Smugglers Soul Solid Shampoo Bar is a royal treat for the hair: a product that not only showcases one of the best smells in this format, but also works far better than a number of the regular bars in store.

Containing a combination of sandalwood, vetivert and tagetes, this limited edition is both sweet and sultry. The lemongrass not only offers the hair a shine that helps to bring out any natural highlights that your locks may possess, but it is also one of the key notes in the overall smell. In fact, it is the lemongrass that compliments the smoky elements of the sandalwood, and what also intertwines with the vetivert to give off a delicately sweet smell.

While I was a little confused at first by the inclusion of the watercress infusion, I have since learned that this ingredient is great for stimulating hair growth, and also helps to give this solid shampoo bar a very moisturising lather that softens, strengthens and repairs hair at the same time. 

You only need to stimulate this for a couple seconds for it to create an abundance of silky-soft lather to massage into your hair. In fact, I found that I only had to wet the product briefly for it to produce enough 'foam' to coat my whole head with. Once applied, I would leave it on for around five minutes before rinsing it out and using conditioner. 

Although I tend to use Avocado Cowash to add in moisture and keep my hair in tip-top condition, there were a few times when I opted to use Smugglers Soul Solid Shampoo by itself, and I found that my hair was just as smooth and manageable as it would have been after using conditioner. Despite there being nothing in the ingredients list that hinted at why this seasonal special was so effective in that manner, it was not something I was going to question.

What I loved about this shampoo was that I was firstly able to enjoy the wonderful smell of Smugglers Soul in the shower, albeit briefly. Although this scent unfortunately didn't seem to last once a conditioner had been applied, nor when used by itself, it was a fleeting luxury that made me wish that Lush would bring out a shower gel or jelly with the same fragrance.

My only qualm with this solid shampoo bar was the fact I felt as if it seemed to shrink a little quicker than other bars of its kind. If left to dry naturally, I noticed that the bar would be smaller the next time I went to wash my hair. For this reason, I would highly recommend that you pat it dry after use, to ensure you get the most out of it. 

Unfortunately, this bar does not stick around to become a regular member of my hair care routine. However, I have bought a few bars to see me through a good many months. For fans of Smugglers Soul, and indeed those who appreciate a good-quality shampoo, I would highly recommend that you give this one a go. I hope, for my hair's sake, that this makes a reappearance next Father's Day.     

Quantitative Ingredients: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Perfume, Watercress Infusion, Rosewood Oil, Sandalwood Oil,  Vetivert Oil, Tagetes Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Polyquaternium-88, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Citral, *Coumarin, *Limonene, *Linalool, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Colour 15510, Colour 17200, Colour 42090.

Yellow Submarine Bath Bomb

'We're all going on a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine, a yellow submarine...'. Let's be honest: there are probably very few people who found out about this bath bomb and didn't repeat the above ditty in their head at least once, just to prove that they could remember it. Many of you most likely went on to rekindle a memory or two of being in school; of having to either perform this repetitive and rather sickly-sweet song in front of your peers, or to endure another class reciting it, albeit out-of-tune, for your viewing pleasure.

This is what I think makes Yellow Submarine Bath Bomb so special to me. While I accept that the current generation of primary school children will probably never grow up to value it as we do - nor will many of them branch out to appreciate The Beatles for their musical worth. However, children of the eighties and nineties will at least be able to make the association between this product and their time at school.  

Made from a combination of orange, coriander and lemongrass, this limited edition bath bomb first made its appearance at the Lush Summit - an event that took place between the 8th and 9th of February, 2017. Exclusive to this event, this brand new product offers a bright, summery bath - giving you a glimpse into what glorious weather we can only hope for this summer.

What is strange about Yellow Submarine, is that while I can recognise each of three main components in the fragrance, the overall aroma is something very different when you first smell it. Initially, my immediate response was that it shared its scent with my favourite shower jelly, Big Calm. However, upon comparing the two, I found that the bath bomb was actually far richer, less pineapple-led, and dare I say it: more exquisite.

Having said that, I am still very adamant that this bath bomb is a tropical offering rather than simply a 'fruity' one. While there is nothing in the ingredients list to suggest why I can smell this, I can definitely make out a sweet, nutty layer of coconut, which makes this a well-rounded and rather creamy affair. 

Alongside this, the inclusion of both lemongrass and orange create an uplifting, fruity layer. This is the stronger of the two notes, and when combined seem to mimic the usual pineapple and passionfruit notes that you would normally expect to find in tropical aromas, albeit with less of a citrus edge.Having said this, I can recognise the inclusion of the coriander in this bath bomb as well. There is a very subtle, dry, herbal element present (that appears to intensify somewhat in the bath tub), that I associate with the ingredient.

What is great about Yellow Submarine is that the second it hits the water, it froths up and creates a mountainous amount of foam. The ballistic then nestles itself within this froth and floats on the surface for a short while, offering a wonderful display of yellow and pinks in the process. As the thick blanket disperses across the surface, the bath bomb capsizes and continues to ebb out waves of colour until the bath bomb has fully dissolved. 

This is one of those slow, quiet bath bombs that fizzles a little, but does produce too much noise in the tub. Furthermore, it's also one that produces a layer of creamy foam the submerge yourself beneath. For this reason, I would highly recommend that you climb into the tub and enjoy the sweet layers of fragrance as the bath ballistic floats on the surface and gently dissolves in front of you.

By the end, you're left with a warming, golden-honey coloured water, which is far more appealing than the simple yellow shade I was expecting. Furthermore, the water appears slightly thicker and moisturising than usual, although I wouldn't say that this bath bomb is particularly generous when it comes to its softening properties.

While the scent was present throughout the experience  I wouldn't say that it was as strong as it could have been, especially given how potent the bath bomb is to begin with. Furthermore, I wasn't really able to detect much of the fragrance on my skin afterwards, although the smell did stay around for a short while in the bathroom. 

Although I felt relaxed and more uplifted after I had experienced this bath bomb, it is definitely a fragrance that I think would work better in a different format: a shower gel, dusting powder or perfume would be a wonderful addition to the range, and would definitely satisfy my tropical cravings until Lush are kind enough to bring out the Big Calm Perfume I have been waiting for for years.

Quantitative Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Disodium Lauryl Sulfosuccinate, Perfume, Water, Brazilian Orange Oil, Coriander Seed Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Limonene, Benzyl Alcohol, Coumarin, Fandango Lustre, Colour 45410, Colour 47005.

Luck Of The Irish Bath Bomb

There's a famous saying that goes: 'if it's not broke, don't fix it' - a statement that I originally thought was going to be rather fitting for this particular bath bomb. While I always appreciate an unexpected release from Lush, I usually prefer it to be a brand new product - not a slightly different rendition of a preexisting item that I can buy on a regular basis. Yet when I received these bath bombs through the post, I knew I had stumbled upon something pretty marvellous.

As the name suggests, Luck Of The Irish Bath Bomb is a celebration of St. Patrick's day - a bath bomb steeped in vibrancy and beauty. Sharing its scent with the regular Avobath, I knew that it would be a product I was going to enjoy very much. However, I was not expecting to love it as much as it turned out I would.

Featuring lemongrass, bergamot and rosewood, this limited edition bath bomb is extremely zesty - not to mention incredibly bright and uplifting to boot. The lemongrass is definitely at the forefront of the smell: offering up a potent citrusy smell, while subtle notes of both the bergamot and the rosewood give the fragrance a little depth and a little added sweetness, without taking away from the natural grassy elements of the key ingredient.

Comparing ingredients lists, both Avobath and this limited edition rendition seem to possess identical components. Yet surprisingly, I found that there was a clear difference between how both of them worked in the water. While both are fairly quick fizzers, and both turn the water into a wonderful vivid shade of green, there was definitely a noticeable difference between how moisturising this bath bomb was when compared to its older sibling.

Upon contact with the water, Luck Of The Irish burst across the surface of the tub with streams of striking green - the perfect shade of colour for a springtime bath. However, within a matter of seconds, you also notice that there is quite a number of oily streams that pattern the surface and glisten in the light. Once submerged under the water, I found that these extra puddles of butters and oils were so much more moisturising than Avobath, and my skin felt instantly soft and smooth.

While I wouldn't say that this bath bomb is overly greasy, I should probably pre warn those who wish to use one, that the extra moisturising properties could potentially cause a problem for those wanting to wash their hair in the water. Although I didn't find this an issue at all, I know that I have fairly dry hair to begin with, so those extra oils no doubt helped to replenish my hair a little. Whereas someone with greasier hair, may find that this exasperates the condition of theirs a little.

After bathing in its waters for only ten minutes, I found that my skin felt silky-smooth and noticeably supple to the touch. This feeling continued long after I had towelled myself down, and was helped even further by the fact that I could still smell the beautiful notes of lemongrass on both my body and hair afterwards.

Despite being able to buy Avobath on a daily basis, I would definitely be interested in picking up another handful of these when they make a reappearance in the kitchen. For a bath bomb that is seemingly slightly lesser in weight, this one sure packs a punch and makes for a far more enjoyable bath than its older sibling. While Avobath is still a perfect bath bomb in my eyes, Luck Of The Irish is on a whole other level. 

Quantitative Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Fresh Avocado, Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Lemongrass Oil, Bergamot Oil, Rosewood Oil, Citral, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool, Perfume, Gardenia Extract, Frosty Holly Lustre.

Karma Wash Card

Back when the flagship store on Oxford Street first opened, the 'Shower Sheet' was a brand new product that excited Lush fans around the world. For those not content with shower gels and shower jellies and shower smoothies and buttercreams, here was a brand new, innovative design that challenged the concept of 'normal showering' once again. 

Yet, after recognising their many merits, there was still a part of me that felt as if I wasn't getting as much value from a £13.95 sheet as I was for a similarly priced bottle. Therefore, once I had tried all of the sheets to review on my blog, I settled back into the routine of using my favourite gels and jellies once more.

However, after the Kiss Me Quick Business Card made an appearance earlier this year as part of the Valentine's Day range, I began to recognise other purposes that this format was able to offer, and I found a newfound appreciation of the product. So when Karma Wash Card was one of many new cards to showcase themselves at the Lush Summit event on February 8th, 2017, I was far more optimistic about picking myself up a handful.  

Firstly, the size of this card means that this will slip easily into a purse or a side pocket of a bag/suitcase - making it a great travelling companion that wont weigh you down. Due to this format not being able to create any unwanted spillages whatsoever, this solid rendition of a shower gel also guarantees to be leakage-free, and suitable to take on board a plane as part of your hand luggage.

Secondly, the lack of any active moisture means that the sheets are preservative free - meaning that they should have a much longer shelf life than their liquid counterparts. In addition, the lack of moisture means that they are far more densely packed with ingredients. For this reason, when used in the shower, the theory is that they'll be able to create much more of a lather from far less of the product because of this. Furthermore, they don't contribute to package waste in the slightest, making it far more environmentally friendly than their other shower counterparts.

Seeing the cards placed next to their perfume partner made me also realise that these are a great way of trying out a fragrance before you invest in a jul-size bottle. While £2 initially seems rather expensive for what roughly equates to about 6-10 showers worth of product, I feel as if this is worth doing rather than spending £30+ on a bottle of perfume that you realise you are not so keen on a few weeks later. 

While Karma Shower Gel and Karma Shower Jelly are both available fairly often in the Lush Kitchen, these are not products that are accessible to every Lush fan at any given moment. Once these cards make a permanent feature in stores, it'll mean that fans of certain fragrances will be able to have full time access to shower products in their favourite scents.

Sharing its scent with the popular Karma range, Karma Wash Card is exactly what you'd expect. Probably being closest in smell to the shower jelly format, this patchouli, pine, lemongrass and orange-scented aroma is beautiful in every way.

Karma is an ambient fragrance reminiscent of the sixties. Spicy orange oil is definitely the heart and soul of this fragrance - with warm, earthy and slightly spicy hints of patchouli to compliment the main scent. An occasional burst of lavender gives it a herbal touch and pine oil seals the deal, making this a multi-layered festivity of smells. The scent is both sweet and citrusy, and reminds me of those old-fashioned cola bottle sweets you used to get when you were little; or summer days where the smell of burning incense can be found wafting out of shop windows.   

What is great about this wash card is that it can also be used as a shampoo, which helps to lighten your load even more when you're travelling. Having only tried this out once, I can honestly say that it left my hair feeling silky-smooth and incredibly clean - not to mention the fact that the scent radiated from my locks for hours afterwards. 

While it lathered up quickly, and was equally as generous as a regular shower gel in terms of the amount of 'foam' it produced, I was a little disappointed to discover that the sheet near-on disintegrated when coming into contact with the running water. This is definitely not a product you should use in one go. Instead, to get the most out of it, I would recommend that you break off a small piece (1cm), add a little water away from the direct flow of the shower, and then massage it across your skin in a circular motion. 

The wash card produces a light, fluffy and very fragrant lather, and you can easily clean your entire body with the recommended size piece. In that sense it is equally as effective, if not more so than the shower gel variation, and works as a great top up for those who love the scent but don't have the privilege of owning the shower gel or jelly.  

As a gift, or as a product to store for future travel plans, this is a lovely limited edition to invest in. Although I won't be replacing my shower gels anytime soon, this business card has definitely sparked my interest in the shower sheets a little more, and I would definitely consider carrying these with me on trips rather than storing the usual bottle of gel. While a part of me considers £2 to be a little expensive for the size of the item, I can also see how its price tag makes it easily accessible for those on a budget, and who perhaps don't wish to invest the amount it costs for a full-sized version.
