Greetings From........ Gift Set



This flowery, earthy gift set is a ton of fun!  The paper and string remind me of hippies and art studios on a fall day.  It is also a steal for a cheap gift that everyone will love.  If you are down to it, and haven't gotten a gift for any event, this would be the perfect touch.  Also, buy one and keep it around for emergencies.......or if you can't contain yourself, treat yourself to a gift "just because".  It is only $19.95 USD and you get three unique and fun products.  You get a hunk of Honey I Washed the Kids soap, Sugar Scrub sugar scrub and a Vanilla Fountain bath bomb.



















The gift set might have been packaged in too small of a box, because my Vanilla Fountain bath bomb was damaged.  Luckily, it wasn't beyond repair.  The best product in this set is BY FAR, the Honey I Washed the Kids soap.  It is one of my favorite products and makes this gift set what it is.  The only thing that disappointed me about that was the actual aesthetic of the hunk of soap.  In the store and online, it has a beautiful honeycomb top and my chunk had no sign of honeycomb.  I felt that having that little touch on a sample hunk of this soap in a gift set would certainly entice the receiver to head into a LUSH store and shop around more.  Assuming they hadn't heard of LUSH before (WHAT?!?!?!).  The tag on the gift set also shows the honeycomb top, so the receiver might be confused and think that they got the wrong thing or the unlucky dud set (I guess that's me? LOL).

Strawberry Picnic Gift Set


 
This gift set is adorable.  The strawberry paper and green, grass-like string are fresh and summery.  It is also a great deal, just $29.95 USD, you get four products.  You get a Grass shower gel, Sugar Babe sugar scrub, Summer Pudding soap and Strawberry Feels Forever massage bar.   


The best product, in my opinion, in this set is the summer pudding soap.  All of these products work very well together though, to bring you the best of a summery picnic on a beautiful day.  I would say that it is a great gift to give a friend or family member.  It has enough range of LUSH products and enough scents to pique interest in LUSH and perhaps make another lifetime customer.  The only thing I wish were different is that the massage bar was just a tad bigger.  I'm not a huge fan of the Strawberry Feels Forever massage bar, but it might be nice to have a bigger sample to intice a person to invest in a standard size.

Think Pink Bath Bomb




The very first Lush product I tried was the Think Pink bath bomb.  What draws me into this bath bomb is its flirty pink color and adorable sugary flowers on the top.  I liked that it was the smaller size because this simple bath bomb is supposed to be petite but pack a punch.  I read that it was once a larger bath bomb, but I love this in a small version and couldn't imagine it any other way. I made sure to pick one with all orange flowers (orange is my absolute favorite color).  Although, you have your own pick, as they are all different color combinations.  It smells super sweet and girly while letting you know that it's here to make an impact.  It is absolute bliss sitting inside its yellow Lush bag.

When I dropped it into my bath water it exploded in a fizzy excitement while shooting hot pink color into my water.  The sugary flowers on top dropped to the bottom of the tub and dissolved when I touched them (bye, bye my friends).  It fizzed at a nice pace and at the end left my water with adorable heart confetti.  The confetti wasn't overwhelming and didn't harm my plumbing at all. 

The air in my bathroom smelled sweet and it flooded into my apartment.  Even my fiance commented on how nice it made the apartment smell and that it didn't overpower him.  When I got out my skin smelled sweet and fun.  Heck, I even felt sweet and fun! 

This bath bomb has 100% made it onto my list of must-have pamper items.

On their website http://www.lushusa.com/shop/ Lush says that it has scents of both tonka and vanilla.  I could definately place vanilla in this bath bomb.  It is a very subtle no-muss, no-fuss girly scent.  Head over and check it out!  At only $3.95 USD this bath bomb is a steal and a very affordable slice of flirty pink goodness.
