Lush Intergalactic Bath Bomb Review

Hi Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)


In my last Lush related post I had said that it had been a while since I had the time to flake out and have a bath but I'm making it my mission to start having some 'me' time once again! I'm going to review the Lush Intergalactic bath bomb for you today and this absolutely amazing product has been sitting in my unit since last October, a complete and utter sin I know. Last Thursday I stayed in the Radisson Blu St Helens Hotel and I popped this in my bag to bring with me. There is nothing I love more than having a long soak in the bath, especially if it's in a hotel. I don't know what it is I can't explain why, all I know is it's always just pure bliss haha!


Intergalactic is probably one of the most interesting looking bath bombs that I have picked up from Lush to date. It completely lives up to its same, just look at the wonderful array of colours it boasts!


The description that accompanies this bath bomb is as follows:

"Ground control to major bomb. Prepare for take off as this awesome mix of peppermint and popping candy explodes in your bath creating a scent of an intergalactic 80's rogue. Launch it into the water to become the guardian of your own galaxy."

Intergalactic contains peppermint oil, grapefruit oil, vetivert oil, and cedarwood oil. The only scent from that list that I am not familiar with is vetivert oil but out of the four oils contained in this bath bomb the peppermint oil was definitely the most prominent scent.

Rather than trying to explain how this bath bomb performs I'm just going to let the pictures do the majority of the talking!


This bath bomb is a fizzer, it shoots and spins quickly making its way around the bath as it dissolves. As it's dissolving the bath bomb releases a rainbow of colours from pinks to greens to blues to yellows! It really is quite magical to watch.





Once the bath bomb has finished dissolving the bath water will have transformed into the most beautiful shade of blue. The other colours don't fade completely though you can still see them in the foamy layer that lies on top of the water. I didn't realise that this was going to be a glittery bath bomb or at least not to this extent. This bath bomb fills the water with gorgeous golden brown glitter particles which reminds me of the stars in the galaxy. A nice touch to this galaxy inspired bath bomb!

I love this bath bomb to pieces and it's one I know that i'll purchase time and time again. Not only for how it makes the bath look but also for how it left my skin feeling, it felt really soft and hydrated. The only other thing that I will say about this is that the glitter leaves behind a residue in the bath so make sure to rinse the bath afterwards as it will be easier to clean then!

I can't remember exactly how much this particular bath bomb was but I think it was around the €5 mark! Lush products are available from Lush stores nationwide :)

Until next time!

Lush Lover Lamp Bath Bomb - A Perfect Gift for Valentines Day!

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)

It has been a few months now since I last reviewed a bath bomb from Lush and its probably been near enough that time since I've had a bath too. Extremely unlike me as I love long soaks in the bath but quite frankly I just haven't had the time lately! Recently I was up in Dublin for the launch of YSL's new Touche Eclat Le Teint foundation and after the event was over myself and another blogger Riona decided to go and do a spot of shopping. Unfortunately I don't have a Lush store near me and being that I was in town I knew I had to stop and check out what they had to offer. As Valentines Day is fast approaching I was hoping they would have some new bits and pieces in stock that I had yet to try, and I was right!


After some pondering I finally decided on the Lover Lamp Bath Bomb. The description of this product according to Lush is as follows:

"Off with the hearts! Pop this amorous Brazilian orange oil and vanilla bomb in the bath and the fair trade orange cocoa butter hearts will melt, softening the water. Self preserving and suitable for Vegans".

What led me to pick out this bath bomb in particular was the fact that it contained cocoa butter. I'm a huge fan of products containing cocoa butter as I find it soothes my eczema, butterball from Lush is a firm favourite of mine. Aside from that though, from reading the rest of the ingredients I thought the bath bomb sounded like a dream so I said I'd give it a go! 


When I popped this into the bath the first thing I noticed was that the bath bomb fizzed around the bath, dissolving very quickly. As it was making its way around the bath I noticed it was spitting out lots of tiny little hearts and was beginning to turn the bath water a cloudy white colour. Initially I couldn't put my finger on the scent, I could just get quite a powdery smell. However when I actually got into the bath after the bomb had fizzled out that was when I could smell the orange and boy was it fantastic! The addition of cocoa butter made the bath water nice and silky and every so often when I moved I'd get that gorgeous hint of orange, a smell very similar to Terrys Chocolate Orange actually. When I got out of the bath I had a residue on my skin similar to as if I had already applied moisturiser, cocoa butter working its magic again!


All in all I'm a huge fan of the lover lamp bath bath it gets a big thumbs up from me. It's definitely one to pick up this Valentines Day whether it be as a gift for a partner or as a treat for yourself! The Lover Lamp bath bomb retails at €5.45 and is available from Lush stores nationwide.

Until next time :)

Lush Twilight Bath Bomb Review

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)

When I walk into Lush now I must admit I'm finding it hard to pick up a bath product that I haven't tried before. It most likely comes as no surprise but I am a Lush addict! When I saw this cute little pink bath bomb that I hadn't tried before I thought, I'll pick it up and stash it away for a rainy day. 


I've been really stressed over the last few weeks and unfortunately when I'm stressed it shows on my skin. My arms were covered with eczema and I also had patches on my forehead and around my nose too, nightmare. As you know I love my baths but I had been putting off having a long soak as I didn't want to irritate my skin further. For the most part my skin is now clear so the other day I busted out my Twilight bath bomb and finally had the bath that I was longing for.


This bath bomb contains ingredients such as essential lavender oils, ylang ylang oils and tonka absolute which aim to relieve stress. Lush state that the bath bomb is 

"our most relaxing bath bomb yet, Twilight is our gentle, reassuring hug for the bath to transform you from worn out to warm and fuzzy."

An absolutely ideal bath bomb I couldn't wait for it to works its magic!


I popped it in the bath and after a few seconds the bath bomb looked like a melted marshmellow. It didn't do anything then for around a minute and I was hugely disappointed but then out of nowhere a blue fizz erupted from the centre of the bath bomb. It began fizzing merrily on its way leaving behind a bright blue trail. 


This bath bomb is a slow fizzer it took absolutely ages to fizzle out. So much so that I hopped in the bath before the bomb had fully dissolved. I just jumped in, laid back and watched the show! The photo below is of one end of the bath before the bath bomb had finished fizzing. The bath water doesn't look like this in the end though, unfortunately. When it has finished dissolving the vibrant colours disappear and you are left with bath water that is more of a lilac/grey colour.


The scent of Twilight is mild, not over powering or as strongly scented as other Lush bath bombs that I have tried but still pleasant all the same. If you are familiar with Lush bath bombs you will probably understand when I saw that this bath bomb left the water feeling silky, a similar effect to the Butterball bath bomb. This is also a glittery bath bomb so you will have glitter particles running through the water. Don't forget to give the bath a quick rinse afterwards so that they don't stick to the bottom of the tub!

Overall I really enjoyed this bath bomb. It left my skin feeling nice and soft afterwards and of course smelling fantastic. I was a bit let down by the colour of the water but it wouldn't put me off repurchasing, this will definitely be a bath bomb i'll buy again!

The Twilight bath bomb at €4.50 and is available from Lush stores nationwide :)
Until next time,

Lush Sparkly Pumpkin Bubble Bar Review

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)


Another bubble bar review you say? I simply cannot help myself. In all honestly though, can you blame me when the goodies are Halloween themed?
Nothing says Happy Halloween like a Sparkly Pumpkin Bubble Bar................ am I right, AM I RIGHT? Most definitely >:)

The day I purchased this bubble bar pretty much consisted of a series of unfortunate events from the moment I woke up. I was racing to get my bus after an event in the lashing rain when I decided it was probably for the best if I stopped into Stephens Green to pick up an umbrella. I literally got from the top of Grafton Street to the bottom when the umbrella snapped and blew inside out. I knew I was now going to get saturated and then I would have to sit on a bus for the next hour and a half in my sopping wet clothing.
Nerves.Were.Raw.
Feeling sorry for myself I dashed into Lush and picked up the first thing that caught my eye, the Sparkly Pumpkin Bubble Bar. I was tight on time so I didn't get to browse but knowing that a bath was awaiting me when I got home made the bus journey all the better!


I repurchased this bubble bar a couple of times last year I loved it that much. Its no wonder it was the first thing that caught my eye, it is extremely glittery.
Even though you can see that the bubble bar glistens in the light, the photos don't do it justice at all. I literally cannot begin to describe how shimmery it is!


That shimmer transfers like no other haha I was covered from head to toe in glitter after taking the products shots!


The Lush Bubble Bars can be a little pricey so if you really want to get value for your money I would suggest dividing the bar into halves or even quarters depending on the size of the bar. I usually just chop the bubble bar in half and I'm good to go!

When you crumble this bubble bar under the tap it turns the water a light orange almost yellow colour, the more of the bubble bar you use the more intense the colour will be. The bubble bar contains juniperberry, grapefruit and lime oils and it definitely has a citrusy scent to it. I was a bit surprised by the scent to be honest I thought it might have been a more musky, spicy scented bubble bar but I enjoy the fragrance all the same.

The Sparkly Pumpkin Bubble Bar will set you back €4.95 and gets a massive thumbs up from me. The only thing I will say is that you will need to rinse out your bath afterwards. The glitter from the pumpkin sits at the bottom of the bath so if you don't rinse this down the drain straight away, it hardens and you're going to find yourself scrubbing for dear life to get it off ha!

Have you tried the Sparkly Pumpkin Bubble Bar or any of the other Lush Halloween products? 
Let me know :)
Until next time,

Lush Comforter Bubble Bar Review

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)

It has been quite a while since I last posted a review on here, unfortunately the video side of things take up a lot of my time. Recently I started posting review videos over on my channel, I find sometimes a written post isn't enough for a product. Depending on the product you need to see a product in action to really get a feel for how it performs. I'll be making more of an effort to post those along with written reviews on the blog, it'll most likely be weekly. I upload my tutorials on a Saturday and I'm still trying to settle on a day for the blog posts. Well, if your reading this I have already decided on a day so thats that!


Lush is most definitely my all time favourite place for bubbly bits, the selection is simply out of this world. I'm not ashamed to say that lately I have developed a bit of an obsession with the bubble bars, in particular "The Comforter".
I for one hate the Summer time, I'm not using that word lightly either. It simply doesn't appeal to me, I've been longing for the colder months. I love that chill in the air, the crispy leaves and how it gets dark early in the evening. If Winter were all year round I'd be the happiest woman on the planet!
In the Autumn/Winter months, I especially love my bath times.
 A piping hot bath with some glorious goodies and a hot chocolate is just pure bliss. Ain't no water charges stopping me!


I love how I can get around 6 baths out of just one bar. As you can see from the picture above I used the smallest amount for my bath and look at the effect it gives! Such fantastic value for money. Sometimes I might break bigger sections off the bar, giving me around 4 baths. The only real difference I noticed by using a bit more of the bar was that the colour of the water appeared a bit brighter, I still had bucket loads of bubbles either way!
I find the most effective way to use the bubble bar is to break off a piece and let it dissolve under the tap. I learnt the hard way that chucking it into the bath didn't work, neither did crumbling it into the bath haha. 


The bar itself reminds me of a mix between cotton candy and marshmallows. 
The fruity smell of this bubble bar will leave you drooling. I personally love sweet smelling things but if they aren't your cup of tea don't worry, although the bar is sweet it doesn't have an overpowering/sickly sweet smell.
After my bath I didn't notice that my skin felt any different but I smelled fantastic and was feeling truly relaxed :)

Upfront the bar might appear a little pricey at €5.95 but like I said it can be used multiple times. If you break the bar into as many pieces as I do thats only around a euro a bath! 

Have you tried this bubble bar or any others?
Let me know!

Lush Happy Bathday Gift Box

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)


Bit of a late post haha but my birthday was back in December and my god was I spoiled! I got lots and lots of little bits and bobs some of which you can bet your bottom dollar there will be a review on *cough* Sigma Creme de Couture Collection *cough*
First up is this gorgeous Happy Bathday Gift Set from Lush.
Quite frankly I couldn't believe how I hadn't heard of this set before seeing as I love my baths so much. If ever I could have received a perfect gift…this was it!
The pretty patterns and quirky colourful designs make this such an inviting little gift, its like something from a cartoon...I just couldn't wait to open it! 
I felt about 5 years old again..except this time I was carefully unravelling the big bow and wrapping paper. I was in my element :)



If you have never tried any products from Lush before, simply love your bath times or are looking for a great birthday gift..well then this is the present for you! Lush have filled this gift box with various different bath bombs, ballistics and bubble bars so there really is something in there to suit everyone.


One thing I have always loved about Lush is that they have stickers on each package telling you who exactly packaged your gift set.
Its a lovely touch and makes your Lush experience that little bit more personal.


As usual with Lush my goodies are well packaged with the addition of some streamers and a party blower. I actually thought these were quite funny, although it is a birthday gift box I didn't expect to see items like these inside haha well played Lush! :)

Now onto the goodies!


Karma Bubble Bar

Not too long ago I was staying in a hotel so I decided to pop this little bubble bar in my bag in the hope that the hotel had a bath! Thankfully it did, seriously I love nothing more than a bath in a hotel. Unlimited hot water mwahaha >:)
This was my first time using a bubble bar so not knowing what to do with it I used it like I would a bath bomb…I just chucked it right on in. 
I was quite confused when it didn't start bubbling and dissolving in the bath.. maybe its a dud I thought. That was until I could see a smile quickly spread across Joe's face. 
'Your meant to hold it under the tap Eimear, thats how it works.' 
I mean seriously, since when did himself become an expert on bath products? Some of the boys in my class in college hadn't even heard of a bath bomb until I showed them a few cheeky purchases I had made while on lunch!
So how did he know how to use it and I didn't.…tis a mystery.
Anyway, I scooped the bubble bar out of the water and held it under the tap instead. Thats when the magic happened. Bubbles, bubbles everywhere!
I had more bubbles than I knew what to do with.
That was the second thing I didn't know, I didn't realize you could use it several times by breaking pieces off the bubble bar..and that was why I had snow suds haha! Oops on my account again.


Big Blue Bath Ballistic 

I can see why this is called the 'Big Blue' Bath Ballistic…its absolutely massive!
And also blue, but you definitely would never have guessed that haw haw.
Due to its size you could divide it in two and keep some for another time.
I didn't I was way to eager and chucked the whole thing in!
The second it hit the water it started spinning and fizzing around the bath, much to my amusement. (Clearly you can tell I don't get out much)
When the bath bomb had fully dissolved my bath was a gorgeous vibrant shade of blue and was filled with seaweed and sea salt.
I can imagine this wouldn't be everyones cup of tea but I couldn't wait to jump on in! The bath bomb is also infused with lavender and lemon oils so it really is the perfect bath bomb if you want some time to yourself to just flake out.
My skin was nice and soft afterwards which I think was down to the seaweed and naturally I smelled divine :)
The only downside to this bath bomb is cleaning up afterwards..ugh.
Scooping seaweed out of the bath was not a fun time haha!


Blue Skies and Fluffy White Clouds Bubble Bar

I learnt my lesson from the karma bubble bar. I was fully prepared this time, I knew what to do haha! For awhile I didn't know which one this was. After some process of elimination I decided it had to be the blue skies bubble bar. Even when I looked online though my bubble bar looked completely different to the one on the Lush website and to other bloggers that had reviews up.
I kind of just took it that because its hand made everyones varies!
The bubble bar is enriched with cinnamon, frankincense, and patchouli. 
 It smells so good, not as strong a scent as a bath bomb but still quite delightful, I still have a quaint but pleasant smell on my skin after my bath which is always nice! Overall I was quite delighted with this bubble bar :)



Fizzbanger Bath Ballistic 

This was one of my favourite from the set that I will definitely repurchase again. Filled with cinnamon and appley goodness, simply unreal!
I was really surprised when I popped this ballistic in the water as it changed colour…..twice! I was expecting the bath water to be a bright shade of yellow but in actual fact it changed blue then green! This was because the bath ballistic is layered. The patterns and colour of the water looked so cool, it actually reminded me of marble cake….or just the marble effect in general.


Pop in the Bath Bubble Bar

Again, we have another bubble bar in the set. Thats three in total!
Three bath ballistics and three bubble bars.
To be honest I much would have rather preferred more bath ballistics over the bubble bar as they are a bit more exciting. Along with the fact that I find there to be little to no scent off of my skin after the use of a bubble bar where as with the bath ballistics not only I smell…the entire house does! I love it!
This bubble bar has a really zesty feel to it, not too overpowering though.
I had actually read reviews on this one before so I was surprised when I saw my bubble bar as the coloring was different. Any I had seen before were either pink, green or blue! Lush must just change up the colours from time to time.
As my bubble bar was a cream shade it didn't change the colour of the water like the other bubble bars did. It wouldn't have made a difference either way because I couldn't see the water with all the bubbles! I was in bubble heaven :)


Avobath Bath Ballistic

This was the very first bath bomb I used out of the set!
I was sick around the time I used this bath bomb so I figured the ingredients would do myself some good. Lush describe this ballistic   

"like a reviving lemongrass spa bath, complete with an avocado and olive oil massage - almost!"

Which was another reason I picked up this ballistic to use first, the lemon scent really stood out from the rest of the bunch. I filled my bath as usual and I popped the whole thing in, some people divide it up into pieces but I am terrible at savoring things…I wanted it all!
Anytime I use a Lush bath product it can be sniffed throughout the entire house, its mad but I love it!
However this was where my love for the bath bomb ceased unfortunately.
I didn't find the bath ballistic to have any moisturizing properties even though olive oil is one of the key ingredients. I was hoping it would soothe my dry skin but that was not the case.
With all of the Lush bath products I have used to date, the smell of the bath bomb lingers on the skin for hours after I get out of the bath. With this one I couldn't smell the product on my skin at all after I had gotten out of the bath.
Unfortunately so this one was a little disappointing.

On the whole I would give this set a massive thumbs up! 
I loved trying out a range of the Lush bath bombs, bubble bars and ballistics. It enabled me to try out products that I might not have purchased on there own otherwise. Now I know what I will definitely be picking up again and what I might give a miss. It makes a perfect gift for any Lush fan similarly for anyone who has never tried any products before :)

What are your favourite Lush buys?
I'm always looking to try out new bath bombs!

Lush Sex Bomb Bath Bomb

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)

Happy Valentines Day 


Today I have a review of a gorgeous bath bomb from Lush Cosmetics.
That should be no surprise to you all at this stage it is the number one place I go to if I am in need of some bath buys!
After reading some of the other girls posts on their Valentines Day picks from Lush I decided to go and see what all the buzz was about for myself :)
I was greeted by a lovely girl called Susie who introduced me to various different products and gave me a demonstration on how the bubble bars worked. That is another thing I love about Lush, the staff are always so friendly!
After some time I finally settled on a few bath buys, the first item I picked up was the Lush Sex Bomb Bath Bomb.


When I popped this into the bath it immediately changed the water to a gorgeous shade of pink. After it had fully dissolved I noticed a lovely little flower  floating on top of the water. I assumed that the rose petals in the bath bomb would dissolve once it came into contact with the water, as its made from rice paper it lingers :)
The bath bomb is enriched with jasmine, clary sage and ylang ylang which are powerful aphrodisiacs. This combination of ingredients provides for the ultimate relaxation session!
I had such a lovely soak in the bath the other night, pure bliss just wasn't the word for it. Afterwards, not only myself and my bathroom smelled delicious..but the entire house too! Win :D


A gorgeous little gift for anyone especially on a day like today :)
Perfect for Valentines Day whether you are in a relationship or not…
why not treat yourself!
You will not only smell great but feel great afterwards.
At a price €3.50 you can't go wrong :)

Hope you all have a lovely day today with whatever the day brings!

Lush Space Girl Bath Bomb Review

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)

Today I have a review for you that's out of this world.....literally.
haw haw!


I don't know about you but I just cannot get enough of my baths lately, 
I find it is the perfect way to unwind after a stressful day! 
Beautiful bath with lots of bubbles, glass of wine in hand, candles lighting and Chris De Burgh playing...pure bliss.
I picked up this bargain buy the same day I purchased Mr Bumble.
I knew I wanted to pick up some bath bombs but I wasn't sure which to buy, Lush have such an extensive range...decisions decisions! 
Finally after much time sifting through the various bath bombs I settled on this one the, Lush Space Girl Bath Bomb.


After plenty of pondering I decided on this one purely because it was so unique.
I loved everything about it! The shape, the smell, the glitters....the price!
I simply could not leave this sitting on the shelf, it was exactly what I was looking for.
I love anything to do with space and the galaxy. I have so many space/galaxy inspired items such as leggings and scarfs..I've even did a couple of galaxy inspired makeup looks too!
Here is just one of them :)



I went through the usual routine of filling up my bath before I popped the bath bomb in. The bath bomb itself is a very light shade of purple, however when placed in the water and left to dissolve it turns the water a vibrant shade of purple.


The smell, I can't quite put my finger on it.
Definitely a fruity scent which I am always a fan of :)

With regard to the price, this bath bomb retails at approximately €2.75.
Bargain!
Needles to say I definitely enjoyed my soak with this bath bomb :)

What are your favourite Lush buys?

Lush Mr Bumble Review

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)


I have been a busy bee lately so I popped into Lush to pick up some much needed bath goodies and I ended up picking up this little guy...
very appropriate don't you think!


As you can see from the little tag above, Mr Bumble contains one 
Honey Bee Bath Ballistic and a 75g bar of Honey I Washed the Kids Soap.
Amazing value for money at €10.95 and a perfect gift!


Once I carefully untied Mr Bumble the first thing that I noticed was the size of the bath bomb, to my surprise it was huge! After some more careful inspection I realised the bath bomb had the same stripy design that bumble bee's have on their bodies, another cute touch. There is nothing I love more than attention to detail, and this is spot on :)


I was buzzing with excitement, I could not wait to try out this bath bomb purely because of how big it was. 
I just knew it was going to nicely fill the bath, and boy was I right!
I put the stopper in the bath and allowed it to fill up with water, once I had the temperature just right I popped in the bath bomb.


Instantly it started to fizz around the bath dissolving as it went, leaving the water tinted a bright yellow. 
It wasn't long before the bath bomb had completely dissolved and in I hopped!


I'm not fond of the taste or smell of honey but to my pleasant surprise I enjoyed the sweet smell of this bath bomb. It wasn't too overpowering at all and I found that it lasted a lot longer than any other bath bomb I've ever used.
I'm not sure if this was because it was a substantially larger bath bomb compared to others I have used or if it was just down to the ingredients.
Either way I was over the moon with this find, fingers crossed I will be able to pick up this bath bomb singularly!


If you have read my Lush Secret Santa review you will know that I have tried the Honey I Washed the Kids Soap before. I actually still have my star shaped one that I got in my Secret Santa set for Christmas, its lasting a lot longer than I expected it too...and I'm not complaining! :)
It leaves my hands and skin feeling incredibly soft and smelling great too!
I'm delighted now that I have a soap to pop beside my sink and one to go in the shower now as I have gotten into a routine of using it as a body wash as well as a hand soap.

Overall I'm delighted with this little find.
Such a clever and creative little piece at only €10.95!
This little fellow would make the perfect gift for anyone born in the Spring/Summer months :)
I could not praise it enough!

Thanks for dropping by as always :*

Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub Review

Hey Everyone!
Hope you all are well :)

One thing that I seriously neglect is my lips.
I tend to get very dry and cracked lips throughout the year, not just in the winter. Even though this is the case I do not religiously use a lip balm. 
If they are very dry and sore I will use some vaseline or my EOS lip balms but other than that I don't do anything special.
I have an awful habit of biting and chewing on my lips when I'm nervous or when the skin is peeling. 
Need I say more? I am a disaster when it comes to looking after my lips...
they are in serious need of some TLC!


Anytime that I am in Lush I have always been tempted by these little lip scrubs near the till. After contemplating buying one for far too long, I finally decided to pick one up just before Christmas.
I have never tried a lip scrub before and thought it would probably solve a lot of my problems with regard to the dry skin.
I layer lip balm and vaseline over the dry skin instead what I should be doing is using the scrub to remove the dry dead skin and then treat the lips with the balm.


After much deliberation I decided to pick up the bubblegum flavour lip scrub over the mint one. However I will be back for the mint one as I absolutely adore this one!
The scrub is 100% natural and is made up of a blend of fairtrade sugar and moisturising caster oil to leave your lips sensually soft and tasting good too!
I take a little bit of the scrub on my finger and run it over my lips for a couple of minutes, then comes my favourite part..I like my lips clean!
The lip scrub has the most sugary sweet candyfloss taste, I've often had to contain myself when using the scrub its seriously good enough to eat!



As I said back in my Secret Santa review, I love how Lush put this sticker on the packaging showing you who exactly put the time and effort into making your product. Its such a nice personal touch, I cannot think of any other company that does this!

A little goes a long way with this product, I don't think I will ever get to the bottom of it!
If I want to wear a matte lipstick out the weekend on a night out or just in general, I will use this scrub a few days before hand.
This gets rid of the dry skin that the matte lipstick would sink in to, leaving me with smooth lips which are lipstick ready!

I do not recall how much exactly this lip scrub was, it was approximately €6.50.
Which I thought was expensive at first but I realised I am going to get endless use out of the product so I could justify the spend.
Overall I am quite happy with my purchase :)

Have you tried any of the lip scrubs?
