Lush Valentines 2015


I know I am a bit late on this one but wanted to quickly put up a post about the Valentine’s range available until 14th Febuary 2015
Heart Throb (Bubble bar/bubbleroon) - £3.65
A red heart made of of two halfs - this bubble heart is the newest edition to the bubbleroon family.  However, instead of being sandwiched together with a red substance it is brought together with gold lustre paste. 
Sharing the same fragrance as the African Paradise Body Conditioner this very pigmented red product will turn the bath a red colour with a gold lustre tinge.  However - blondes beware this is meant to slightl dye blonde hair pink!
Note; the difference between a bubbleroon and a bubble bar is the volume ofsoftening shea butter - therefore this will give you more of a moisturising bath.
Lonely Heart (Bubble bar) - £3.50
With it’s sad name Lonely Heart bubble bar makes me feel sorry for it straight away! The main ingredients are lemongrass, bergamot, jasmine and ylang ylang   which leave it smelling deliciously girly.
The Kiss (Lip Scrub) - £5.50
A favourite among LUSH fans is there lip scrubs.  This one seems very appropiate for Valentines day which is designed to scrub dead skin from your lips and make them feel soft and kissable.
The lip scrubs typically comes in two types - sweet or salty.  This one is said to be a mix between both.  It has sugar, salt, edible hearts and multicoloured sprinkles!
The Kiss (Lip Balm) - £5.95
Next to accompany the lip scrub is a tinted lip balm.  With a pink pigment this lip balm is sure to attract a lot of buyers.  All lush lip balms are made from shea butter making them very moisturising and softening for the lips.  As an extra bonus the lip balm also has added guarana seed powder! (a natural skin-plumper)
Prince Charming (Shower Gel) - £4.75/100g, £9.50/250g and £15.95/500g
I have recently got very into LUSH shower gels.  They are very concentrated and a little goes a long way - hence why they are so expensive.  This is a returned product from last years collection.  The website says it smells like marshmallow root, Fair Trade vanilla and fresh pomegranate juice.  I don’t agree I think it smells like Jaffa Cakes and Turkish delight.  It is lovely!
Floating Flower (Bath Bomb)- £3.50
Although this bath bomb is beautiful, with it’s colours and the way it elegantly floats on top of the water, I can’t bring myself to like this one.  The scent is a very very strong scent of jasmine - which I am not a fan of.  However, this is completely my own opinion - lots of people DO like this one!
Cupid’s Love (Soap) - £4.25/100g
The valentine’s soap this year is adorable shaped as usual.  The ingredient are bergamot, rosewood, fresh figs, passion fruit juice and soya yoghurt.  This gives the soap a fruity and uplifting smell which is really pleasant.  Also with small fig pieces which act as an exfoliant.
Love Locket (Bath Bomb) - £6.95
Inspired by a necklace holding pictures of loved ones, this bath bomb may be the biggets one created by LUSH.  So big in fact that it actually is three bath bombs in one! WHich explains the high price tag.
The bomb breaks in half - each half is a bath bomb in itself.  In addition inside the outer heart casing is a smaller heart bath bomb with edible (although not recommended to eat!) red hearts.
The main scent is vanilla and jasmine which is a perfumed scent but for me it is not too exciting.
Unicorn Horn (Bubble bar) - £3.25
I have saved the best to last with this one! Very highly anticipated and for the majority of the time only available in LUSH Japan! This bubble bar is a multi-coloured horn shape with sugar stars.
This is actually the only product I have allowed myself to buy in the Valentines range due to my huge stash from Christmas! Many stores have completely sold out, and I actually had to go back to my local LUSH store today when they told me they got the delivery.  The guy in store said this is the most popular product he has ever seen!
It smells quite strongly of Lavender with neroli oil and sparkling lustre.  Definitely not to be missed!
