Demon in the Dark Soap

This is the perfect soap for any man in your life.  It is by far, the most masculine scent that I have encountered using LUSH products.  At the same time, it has enough priss to be suitable for a girl!  It looks like hell but smells like minty heaven.  It also has apple in it....go figure.  It looks like hell but smells like Eden.  Interesting.  Anyhow, the lather is nice and thick and the scent is muted.  It didn't do an incredible job at moisturizing my skin but left it feeling super clean and minty.  It was almost like a breath mint for my body.  Trust me, in Arizona when the summer comes...the body does need a breath mint.

So....cool off and enjoy some heaven and hell and check it out on LUSH's site!

Avobath Bath Bomb

This is an egg half in my Happy Easter gift set.  It holds a Hippy Chick bath bomb along with a Candy Fluff egg half and sits waiting patiently for me to use it.  I chose to use this last the the set because it is a bomb that is part of LUSH's normal lineup.  It is perfect for this set.  It is the grass in the Easter basket. 

It smells fresh and grassy.  Hence, the lemongrass ingredients!  It was more dense then Candy Fluff (harder to break) but fizzed out quickly.  The scent was very strong while it fizzed but left quickly.  It didn't stick around on my skin, to my disappointment.  However, toward the end of my bath I noticed.....IT'S SPARKLY!!!  The water had a bijillion (yes, that's a word) sparkles in it that didn't cling to my skin but made that water fun.  My skin felt softer than usual, although not as soft as Candy Fluff.  I would definitely buy this bomb outside of Easter products.

Check out the normal bomb on LUSH's site:

Sugar Scrub Sugar Scrub

Well, what would a little beauty adventure be without a little trial, wound and error? 

I got this in the Greetings From... gift set.  It is the perfect addition to the set.  I have to admit, I'm not a huge fan of the smell of freshly cut grass.  Maybe because I can sometimes be allergic depending on my skins mood (I'm dramatic, okay?).  The scent of this scrub is purely bag of grass.  However, I enjoyed it enough to be super excited to try it out.  This might explain why what happened, happened.  Here is my story:



The instructions on the package of the scrub read as follows: "Get your body nice and wet, then smooth your sugar scrub all over (scrubbing harder on the rough parts) and rinse off.".  Keep in mind, I got this in a gift set.  Most people who receive it this way, will not be in a Lush store bathing in advice from gurus looking out for their arms' best interest.  Therefore, most folks will read the instructions and do as I did.....rub this devil on their wet, soft, exposed and vulnerable arm.  OH THE HORROR!!!!!!  I dragged across my arm and it left me with this nice, rashy, stinging, red.....wound.  On quick damage control, I did the natural thing (thought process of the masses?) and wet the entire ball of sugar scrub.  Apparently, also a no-no.  For when I put it on my counter post shower-of-pain, it melted into a puddle of green, grassy goo.  So......I have a small open letter to Lush.

Dear Lush (I love you, I love you),

Please include on this product, the step to break of a piece and wet lightly THEN SCRUB.  Also, threaten complete and total destruction upon wetting the product on the packaging.  Yes, I know, the website says not to wet it but let's face it.....who will read the website pre-shower? 

Your still-loving and somewhat wounded warrior,
Heather

Well, I scooped up my poor (wait, why do I feel sorry for this pain-inducing thing....better yet, why am I giving it a personality?), goo glob, plopped it into its dome and put it in time-out.  It dried back into shape and became usable again.  Here is what it looked like afterward:

So...............don't do as I did and listen to these "instructions". PFFFFF!  Tom-foolery.  Ask a friend, and come wearing your battle armor to use this product.  It made my skin soft and didn't leave it smelling too much like a golf tourney.  Check it out! :

Fizzbanger Bath Bomb

This bath bomb is a ton of fun.  It is by far, the yummiest smelling bath bomb that I have tried.  I starts off with a citrus scent that morphs its way into apple pie.  The scent is light and fun and fills the bathroom.  My fiance commented that it was a very nice scent.  When put into the water it starts out fizzing yellow.  With this, tiny little crackles invade the tub.  It's like you are drawing a big bath of Rice Krispies.  Check out the video about to hear it in action.  When the core of the bomb is exposed it send a wave of blue foam into the water which turns the water green.  It took a long time to fizz out which was nice.  It allowed for a longer show for my fiance and I.  In the end, the cutest suprise....a small sheet of paper with a "BANG" graphic on it floated out from the core.  Simply adorable!

This bath bomb wasn't particularly moisturizing for me but the scent has me hooked.  I would love to have this bomb made into conditioner, lotion, perfume....the works.  I would say that this is the best Independence Day experience you can get in a bath.  I would recommend it, so check it out on Lush's website:
