After making my own Lush-inspired bubble bars, I wanted to try out making other Lush products. I found a bunch of Pinterest pins on how to make DIY bath bombs, so I tried it out and it turned out great! It was super easy and really cool to customize the colors and scents with different essential oils.

I made a few batches of these bath bombs and I think I’ve found the best recipe out of all the different ones out there & I have some tips to help your bath bombs turn out great the first time!

Lush Christmas | 2014 Lush Haul

This post may contain affiliate links; all opinions are my own. See Disclosures here

I don’t usually get excited about the seasonal items from Lush — I love the classics (the Comforter is my favorite). But this year, I wanted to try out some of the Lush Christmas products. I bought Northern Lights bath bomb when it came out a month or so ago and I loved it; the colors were super pretty and it smelled great.

So naturally, I wanted to grab another one when I ran out of my “Lush stash”. I’m super excited because I got to stock up on everything with this Lush Haul — classics and Christmas!lush christmas haul luxury lush pud poptastic gift box holly go lightly snow fairy reindeer rock bath bubble bar bomb candy mountain charlie holiday muffinchanel classic and christmasThe Northern Lights bath bomb wasn’t out on its own — apparently they’re all breaking during the shipping process, so one of the Lush girls pointed out the Poptastic gift box which has Northern Lights and Sparkler. lush christmas haul luxury lush pud poptastic gift box holly go lightly snow fairy reindeer rock bath bubble bar bomb candy mountain charlie holiday muffinchanel poptastic lush christmas haul luxury lush pud poptastic gift box holly go lightly snow fairy reindeer rock bath bubble bar bomb candy mountain charlie holiday muffinchanel poptastic northern lights sparklerUnfortunately, my Northern Lights was broken when I opened the box. It’s fine though, I know the bath will still look and smell amazing!

The rest of my Lush Christmas looks equally amazing. I’m so excited because I’ve haven’t tried any of these products except the Snow Fairy shower gel.

The Snow Fairy shower gel is such a pretty pink color. I love all of the pink things at Lush! Actually, when I first used this gel, I didn’t like the smell at all. I’d gotten it in a gift box and I remember not liking it or the Rock Star soap. But I like it a lot now — it’s sort of like a cotton candy smell. lush christmas haul luxury lush pud poptastic gift box holly go lightly snow fairy reindeer rock bath bubble bar bomb candy mountain charlie holiday muffinchanel snow fairyWhen I saw the Holly Go Lightly bubble bar — with silver glitter all over — I knew I wanted to try it out. Mostly because it looks so pretty, but also because it smells warm and cinnamon-y. It’s a large sized bubble bar which is nice — you could definitely break this up for multiple uses.lush christmas haul luxury lush pud poptastic gift box holly go lightly snow fairy reindeer rock bath bubble bar bomb candy mountain charlie holiday muffinchanel holly go lightlyThe Wizard bubble bar looks super cute. There is a little yellow star at the top of his wizard’s hat. Mine is a little more pink looking than other’s I’ve seen. I think this might be part of the Halloween collection, but either way, I’m glad I got to buy one before they ran out.lush christmas haul luxury lush pud poptastic gift box holly go lightly snow fairy reindeer rock bath bubble bar bomb candy mountain charlie holiday muffinchanel wizard halloweenThe Luxury Lush Pud bath bomb looks like it has a little bit of everything. There are lots of fun colored polka dots within the mostly pink bomb. It smells like soothing lavender and doesn’t appear to gave any glitter or things that will make clean up difficult.lush christmas haul luxury lush pud poptastic gift box holly go lightly snow fairy reindeer rock bath bubble bar bomb candy mountain charlie holiday muffinchanel luxury lush pudAnd then I picked up some of my favorites:lush christmas haul luxury lush pud poptastic gift box holly go lightly snow fairy reindeer rock bath bubble bar bomb candy mountain charlie holiday muffinchanel favoritesDragon’s Egg, Creamy Candy bubble bar, Sex Bomb bath bomb, The Comforter, and Think Pink bath bomb.

Lush | Mini Haul + Neon Love Soap

This post may contain affiliate links; all opinions are my own. See Disclosures here

I popped into Lush to get a few favorites, but I was also excited to see their Valentine’s Day items. I got the Comforter Bubble Bar (my FAVORITE!), two Sex Bomb Bath Bombs, and a small chunk of the new Neon Love Soap.

mini-lush-haul-muffinchanel-valentines-day-love-neon-review-the-comforter-sex-bomb1-1024x768The soap is limited edition for Valentine’s Day and is a super pretty reddish-pink color with a white heart running through the middle. The hearts were cut all weird in the blocks at the store, but one of the sales associates was super nice and cut me a piece with a perfect heart! ❤

muffinchanel-neon-love-lush-review-soap-valentines-day-1024x337From LushWith fresh passion fruit juice to cleanse and soya yogurt to nourish, Neon Love is one we want to use all over our bodies in the bath and shower. A new perfume was blended for this bar, and includes citrusy bergamot, rosewood and spicy cinnamon leaf oil. Hiding inside the huge heart-shaped soap are little white hearts to ensure every slice looks just as beautiful as it smells.

I really like the way this smells and kind of wish I’d gotten a larger piece. It smells warm and cinnamon-y but not spicy; and sweet and citrus-y; very clean. The scent lingers for a while. Plus, it makes a sweet pink lather which is amazing. It did made my hands feel kind of dry after washing with it & I had to use some hand cream to get rid of the tightness. :/

Have you tried the Neon Lush soap? Or any of the Valentine’s Day items from Lush? What did you think? 🙂
