Lush Eid Al-Adha 2026 Range

 Hey everyone! 

Welcome to a brand new blog post! I thought that I would talk to you all about Lush's brand new Eid Al-Adha 2026 Range today! 

The Eid Al-Adha Range at Lush  is under Luss Co-Create Programme where Lush  collaborates with Lush staff members  who celebrate specific holidays such as Eid Al-Adha and collaborate with them to bring their ideas to life which in turn creates a rich range that is full of ideas, creativity and representation. 

Sukoon Bath Bomb (£3.50)

Ingredients: 

Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Alcohol Denat., Aqua (Water), Ceratonia Siliqua Gum (Carob Resinoid), Styrax Tonkinensis Resin Extract (Benzoin Resinoid Extract), Santalum Album Oil (Sandalwood Oil), Zein (Corn Protein), Titanium Dioxide, Dipropylene Glycol, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Sodium Coco-Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Tin Oxide, *Limonene, Parfum, CI42090, CI77499, CI42090:2, CI45410:2

This Bath Bomb was created hyn Ramsha Khan from the Covernt Garden beach who wanted to convey images of reflection and inclusivity via her design when it came to creating this bath bomb for the Eid Al-Adha Range. 

Not only does Sukoon smell to die for but it also looks stunning when it's dropped into the water as it creates some beautiful blue water in the tub with silver shimmer which in my opinion makes it a gorgeous bath bomb to use after a long day when you want to unwind and just relax. 

Sukoon contains Carob Resinoid, Benzoin Resinoid and Sandalwood which blend to create an indulgent fragrance that reminds me of a freshly baked molasses rich and even maybe slightly just caramelised Sticky Toffee Pudding. If you're a gourmand lover then you may know the fragrance of Sukoon Bath Bomb via the Sticky Dates scent family from Lush!

Siraj Bath Bomb (£3.50)

Ingredients: 

Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Alcohol Denat., Aqua (Water), Parfum, Ceratonia Siliqua Gum (Carob Resinoid), Styrax Tonkinensis Resin Extract (Benzoin Resinoid Extract), Santalum Album Oil (Sandalwood Oil), Zea Mays Starch (Cornstarch), Titanium Dioxide, Zein (Corn Protein), Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Sodium Coco-Sulfate, Calcium Sodium Borosilicate, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Tin Oxide, *Limonene, CI45410:2, CI42090:2, CI77491, CI45410, CI42090. 

Siraj was created by the lovely Andreea Marin (the Trainee Manager at Lush Portsmouth). Andreea wanted to create a Bath Bomb that would help you enter a relaxed state of mind and sit with gratitude for your blessings. 

Siraj Bath Bomb also contains Carob, Benzoin and Sandalwood that blend to create a superb Sticky Dates scented Bath Bomb that smells good enough to eat! Did you know that Sticky Dates first made its  appearance at Lush via its Eid Range so it's a bit of a full circle moment for the scent family being back in the range that started off its viral and famous permanent residence on shelves at Lush stores. 

Hayl Massage Bar (£10)

Ingredients: 

Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter (Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter), Butyrospermum Parkii Butter (Shea Butter), Cocos Nucifera Oil (Extra Virgin Coconut Oil), Sesamum Indicum Seed Oil (Fair Trade Organic Sesame Oil), Parfum, Elettaria Cardamomum Seed Oil (Cardamom Oil), Styrax Tonkinensis Resin Extract (Benzoin Resinoid Extract), Citrus Aurantium Peel Oil (Orange Oil), Prunus Amygdalus Amara Kernel Oil (Almond Essential Oil), Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil (Sunflower Oil), Capsicum Annuum Fruit Extract (Paprika Oleoresin), Titanium Dioxide, Tin Oxide, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, *Amyl Cinnamal, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Benzyl Cinnamate, *Cinnamal, *Citral, *Eugenol, *Geraniol, *Isoeugenol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Coumarin, CI77491

Did you know that Hayl means Cardamom in Arabic? Hayl Massage Bar is a love letter to Cardamom and how it features in different products such as Coffee and Sweet Treats. 

Andreea who also helped to create this marvellous Massage Bar  because she was  inspired by how people love to freshen up, look after themselves and relax during Eid. Andrea chose the spicy fragrance that Hayl contains as it reminds her of gatherings, sharing food and inviting others into the home which is what Eid is all about. She also chose the name Hayl for this momentous Massage Bar as it fits the mood of Eid and wanted a Massage Bar that had a bold fragrance and could be applied quickly and as Massage Bars can be used to create moments with loved ones or yourself when you need a moment to take everything in and just have some time to yourself. 

Hayl contains Cocoa and Shea Butters which are known for being super moisturising and soothing to the skin which makes for a gorgeous base when it comes to Lush's Massage Bars. As someone with super dry skin I've been using this Massage Bar a fair amount and I love how it's super nourishing and hydrating yet it's not super greasy which is a plus for me. As someone with sensory issues and is forever on the go or well rushing even when I'm super early to something, having a product that hydrates my skin yet is fast absorbing is always the dream and trust me this definitely fits the bill. 

Hayl Massage Bar contains a combination of Cardamom, Benzoin Resinoid, Orange Oil and Almond Essential Oil which harmonise to create a incredibly spicy fragrance that has a blast of citrus merging into it with a soft yet sweet creamy base. To me it reminds me of a mixture of a spicy sweet dessert that has some orange peel on top. If I was to compare it to fragrances from Lush then I would say that it's a true Chocolate Orange so imagine a mix of Cardamom Coffee Perfume and Sonic Death Monkey Shower Gel with a touch more sweetness to it.

I applied it at the beginning of a day whilst doing errands around the house and I've also used to before going out for the day around Leeds and by the end of the day when it was time to  do my self care before bed I could still smell the intoxicating sweet and spicy fragrance on my skin. 

I am already tempted to grab another one before they go. Not only does it smell amazing and benefits my skin but I also think that this would be a fabulous Massage Bar to use when my skin gets even more dry towards the Winter months of the year. 

If you know someone who needs a bit of TLC or someone who loves Cardamom then I urge you to grab them this Massage Bar before it goes! 

Baklava Soap (£7)

Who doesn't want to smell like a snack dripping in Honey? 

Ingredients: 

Brassica Napus Seed Oil (Rapeseed Oil), Rosa Damascena Flower Water (Rose Water), Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Aqua (Water), Cocos Nucifera Oil (Coconut Oil/Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil), Parfum, Vetiveria Zizanoides Root Oil (Vetivert Oil), Juniperus Virginiana Wood Oil (Cedarwood Oil), Rosa Damascena Extract (Rose Extract), Prunus Amygdalus Amara Kernel Oil (Almond Essential Oil), Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil (Bergamot Oil), Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter (Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter), Cocos Nucifera Fruit Powder (Coconut Milk Powder), Sodium Chloride, Titanium Dioxide, Gardenia Jasminoides Fruit Extract (Gardenia Extract), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice Powder (Fair Trade Organic Aloe Vera Powder), Citric Acid, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Bicarbonate, EDTA, Tetrasodium Etidronate, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Silica, Tin Oxide, Geraniol, Coumarin, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Limonene, *Linalool, CI77491, CI45350, CI61570, CI42090. 

Samire Jama (a sales assistant at the Lush Coventry store)  decided to create this beautiful Soap for Eid Al-Adha as it is important to share food with friends, family, loved ones and those who are less fortunate and Baklava is a delicious dessert that represents sharing food with those around you especially as Baklava can also be made in large trays and sliced up for many to share and enjoy.  It's also a tradition of Prophet Muhammad/Sunnah to eat something sweet before Eid Prayer and well you can't get sweeter than Baklava. 

If you're someone who suffers with dry skin  like myself then this Soap is made for you! Not only does it have that gorgeous Lush Soap Base which consists of Rapeseed Oil and Extra Virgin Coconut Oil but it also contains Glycerine which is known for locking in moisture! Furthermore, Baklava Soap contains a layer of Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter which ensures that skin feels soft, supple and nourished. 

Baklava contains Vetivert, Cedarwood, Rose and Bergamot alongside some other goodies to create a fragrance that smells good enough to eat. It's deep and resinous, has a nutty aroma that's out of this world and has a sweetness to it which makes you think that the base of the soap was actually drizzled in real honey. If you're an avid Lushie then you may be glad to know that Baklava Soap's scent is a mix of both the old Puddy Holly Bubbleroon that used to be a festive staple and Noubar Soap which both contains fragrances that are rich, sweet, creamy and full of nuts! 

I think that this would make an amazing gift for anyone who loves anything that is gourmand or loves anything with a nutty edge. I know a few friends who love their Pistachio based smells and products so I've already grabbed a slice of this superb soap for them to enjoy! 

Sipak Fresh Face Mask (£12)

Ingredients: 

Kaolin, Aqua (Water), Calamine (Calamine Powder), Glycerin, Punica Granatum Fruit Juice (Fresh Pomegranate Juice), Rosa Canina Fruit Oil (Organic Rose Hip Oil), Citrus Aurantium Peel Oil (Orange Oil), Backhousia Citriodora Leaf Oil (Lemon Myrtle Oil), Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Extract (Orange Flower Extract), Cymbopogon Flexuosus Leaf Oil (Lemongrass Oil), Ribes Nigrum Fruit Extract (Blackcurrant Extract), Hibiscus Sabdariffa Flower Extract (Hibiscus Flower Extract), *Citral, *Eugenol, *Limonene, Citronellol, *Linalool, Geraniol, Parfum, CI77491

Samra Kajtezovic (Store Manager of the Lush Crocker Park store in Ohio, Noeth America) wanted to create a product that was hydrating and soothing to the skin. Samra wanted to create a Face Mask that encapsulates the smell of Sipak Spread which is a Rosehip Jam that is enjoyed on The Balkans as Samra as a child used to spread Sipak Spread all over her Mums homemade Pancakes! 

This face mask contains calamine Powder which is known for helping to soothe the skin whilst gently cleansing the skin. As someone who has irritated skin quite often due to stress,. Hormones and well life I am always in search of something that helps my skin to feel and look soothed. I had a beauty staff member analyse my skin last year and I was told that my skin can get quite irritated so I always try and incorporate something into my self care routine that will help to soothe my skin. I used Sipak on several occasions when I could tell that my skin was angry and wanted to scream and I have to admit that after giving myself around 15 neon it's to reflect and relax my skin felt and looked ten times better. No longer was it angry and ready to fight, my skin now looked calm collected and ready for the day ahead. 

Sipak also contains Pomegranate Juice and Rosehip Oil which are both known for helping the skin to glow for the gods. If you're an avid reader of this blog then you will know that I am an absolute sucker for a product that helps my skin to glow so as soon as I heard this about Sipak, I knew that I had to grab one and check if it does truly help the skin to glow. After using Sipak Face Mask for a fair few uses I do have to admit that my skin does look a lot more radiant, dewy and glowy which I always want when it comes to a product that claims to help skin glow. Rosehip is rich in Vitamin C so I think that's how this Fresh Face Mask really helps to make your skin glow! 

Sipak also contains Orange Oil, Orange Flower, Lemongrass Oil, Lemon Myrtle Oil, Blackcurrant and Hibiscus Flower which blend to create a very uplifting and zingy fragrance that has a delicate floral edge to it due to the Hibiscus, Orange Flower and Rose Hip. To me the fragrance of this Fresh Face Mask reminds me of picking Berries in a big field during the height of Summer. 

I have absolutely been loving this face mask.. my skin feels nourished and pampered alongside it glowing for the gods which is something that I feel we all want when the Summer Sun and weather kicks in. I think that's this could be an amazing gift for anyone in your life that could do with a really good pamper/self care day!

It's Time To Strengthen That Core & Massage It! | Lush New Core Massage Bars 2023 (True Romance & Turmeric Latte) First Impressions

Hey everyone!

Welcome to a brand new blog post. I saw recently that Lush had some new Massage Bars out so I decided to go into store and check them out and talk to you all about them today. 

Lush have recently updated their range of Massage Bars which included creating a new curated range for certain stores (which means that certain stores can curate a selection of massage bars from the range to be sold at their store. These include Karma, Celebrate, Junk, Sex Bomb and many others) and adding some new core massage bars to all stores. 

The two new massage bars that have been added to all stores are True Romance and Turmeric Latte. 

True Romance: 

Ingredients:

Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter, Organic Shea Butter, Perfume, Jasmine Absolute, Neroli Oil, Osmanthus Absolute, Rose Oil, Argan Oil, Rose Clay, *Benzyl Alcohol, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Citral, Citronellol, *Eugenol, *Farnesol, Geraniol, Hydroxycitronellal, *Limonene, *Linalool.

If you have experienced The Comforter? Spa Treatment then you may recognise this scent from the scrub and massage that is offered within the treatment. To me, the main scent that comes through the most is the Rose. To me, the Jasmine and Neroli are background notes and maily help the Rose and Osmanthus to pop through more. Lush have a fair amount of Rose scents such as Rose Jam but to me this a sort of more fruity with a touch of powdery Rose than a sweet Rose (eg Rose Jam) which is probably due to the Osmanthus. The Cocoa and Shea Butters mixed with the Argan Oil help to create a nourishing oil that sinks into the skin quickly which I adore. This bar melts quite well onto the skin which makes for the best massage bar as it stops you from trying to warm the bar for ages to get any of the skin softening oils to come out. I think this product would be amazing for anyone who wants a at home spa experience or a body product to help them relax at night. It would also be a great additional gift for something like a birthday or Mothers Day. For example, pair it with a Rose Jam Shower Gel and a The Comforter Bubble Bar and you’ve got the perfect package for someone who needs a bit of me time. I think that I would give this a 8/10. I think that because I’ve experienced the scrub and massage aspect of the treatment through a Bloggers Event I just have some memories attached to that and thus think that I prefer that a tiny bit more to the massage bar as the scrub/massage bar is a bit more powerful in regards to scent but I still think that its an amazing Massage Bar. Priced at £11.

Turmeric Latte: 

Ingredients: 

Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter, Organic Shea Butter, Perfume, Tonka Absolute, Benzoin Resinoid, Vanilla Absolute, *Anise Alcohol, *Benzyl Benzoate, *Benzyl Cinnamate, *Cinnamal, Coumarin, Eugenol, *Limonene.

If you have read my blog for a while then you will know that I absolutely adore Turmeric Latte from Lush. Am I annoyed that the Bath Bomb has been discontinued? Maybe. Did I get as many Turmeric Latte bombs through the Lush Boxing Day Sale as soon as I heard that this Massage Bar was being released? Maybe (including asking Alex to get me a couple at their local store in Sunderland). Am I  slightly ecstatic that this product has been released? Maybe. 

This Massage Bar is very true to its scent. Just the right balance of creamy, sweet and spicy without being too cloying. To me the smokiness that I believe is created from the Benzoin comes through straight away and then within seconds of this scent coming through the Vanilla and Tonka blast their way through onto the skin. To me, this scent of this massage bar lasts quite a long time on the skin compared to a couple of the others which blends into the skin a bit too quickly for my liking. Again, I think that Lush have perfected the base of the Massage Bars as the oil comes out quite quickly but also sinks into the skin quite quickly. I’ve been using this on a night recently when its been cold and I love it as it just warms me up but I think that I will mainly be using this bar as a sort of solid body lotion to go along with all of the other Turmeric Latte scented products that I own.  (I think the only one I don’t own is the Turmeric Latte scented Hair Conditioner). I think that this bar is quite universal and would be perfect as a gift for anyone who needs a little bit of moisture adding to their body. Okay, I may be bias but I am going to give this 10/10. I am trying out the Curated Massage Bars soon so I may regret giving it a 10/10 but ah well. Priced at £9. 

Have you tried either of the new Core Massage Bars/ Let me know down below.

Set Sail For Some Loving | Lush Valentines Day Range

Hey everyone!

Welcome to a brand new blog post! Lush have released their products for their Valentines Day range, and I thought that, today I would talk to you all about the products that are within the VD range.

Bath Bombs: 

Rose Bombshell

Rose Bombshell is the epitome of Valentines Day, even if it is a little bit stereotypical, creammed into a bath bomb to ensure that you have a wonderful bath that gets you in the mood for loving. This product contains Sicilian Lemon Oil, Geranium Oil, Rose Oil, and Rose Oil which gives your bath a zesty yet sweet Rose scent. This product also contains Fine Sea Salt which helps to get rid of dead skin cells and Yellow Rose Petals which burst out from the bath bomb, to give your bath a romantic and luxurious feel. If you love anything from the Rose Jam family, then you will love this!

Giant Rose Bombshell

This is the same as the above but comes in a giant version. I'm not fully sure why but if you're in a massive bath that fits two people then this might be a good bath bomb to use. It is only available via online or selected stores including Oxford Street and Manchester Arndale (maybe?)

Love Boat

Push the boat out with a trip on the Love Boat! This Bath Bomb resembles a well... boat. This product contains Sicilian Lemon, Sweet Orange and Rose Oils, which gives the bath bomb a zesty but slightly deep scent.

Tisty Tosty

Tisty Tosty used to be an all year product, but was sadly removed when Lush decided to remove a good few of their products last year. It used to be coloured White, but for Valentines Day, it has been coloured a lovely paste Pink colour. This one contains Lemon and Geranium Oils and Jasmine and Rose Absolutes, which gives the product a sweet but slightly floral scent. If you love anything floral then you will probably like this one!

Bubble Bars

Unicorn Horn

Create a Unicorn within your bath! Unicorn Horn is back for Valentines Day! This Bubble Bar contains relaxing Lavender and sweet Neroli whhich means that your bath will be relazing and de-stressful. This also contains different colours which means that you will get a different mixture of colours in your bath depending on how you crumbke the bar up. (Please, don't crumble the bar and use it in one go as thats not how Bubble Bars are meant to be enjoyed.)

Whole Lotta Love

Do you have a Whole Lotta Love for anyone? Yes? No? Well, Lush has a Whole Lotta Love for you. This year, they're showing their love via a Bubbleroon. If you don't know what a Bubbleroon is then, imagine two bubble bars sandwiched together with a moisturising buttercream that helps to keep skin super soft. This reminds me of Fizzbanger and I think it has the same ingredients as the forever loved Fizzbanger, but I could be completely wrong. This contains Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter and Murumuru Butter to ensure that the skin is soft. It also contains

Heart Of Enlightened Expectation Bubble Bar Melt

This is an interesting product due to it being a bit like a Bubbleroon but instead its just a cross between a Melt and a Bubble Bar which means that you dont get two but the bubble bar is normally quite big. This product contains Bergamot Oilm Geranium Oil, Jasmine Absolute, Rose Absolute, and Ylang Ylang Oil which makes the product super floral but slightly sweet so if you love that sort of scent then you will love this product.

Soaps & Shower Products

Kiss Me Quick Wash Card

Kiss Me Quick has returned for 2018 but in the form of two lips, so you can literally kiss it quick or put it over your own lips to get someone to kiss you quick. The way that these cards work, is that, you take a piece off, submerge it in a bit of water and rub to lather, massage the creamy lather into your skin and then rinse. This product contains Fresh Apple Pulp which makes the paper of the Wash Card, Clove Bud Oil, Mimosa and Tonka Absolute which gives the Wash Card a sweet but fruity scent which reminds me of Prince Charming in a way.

Tunnel Of Love

Tunnel Of Love is a brand new soap for 2018, especially as it has a hard exterior but a soft and squidgy interior. This contains Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter and Extra Virgin Coconut Oil which makes the interior so soft. It also contains Kaolin which gently cleanses the skin, Sweet Wild Orange and Lime Oils which make this soap very zesty!

Tender Is The Night Naked Shower Cream

This is a brand new product for VD 2018. Sadly, Prince Charming Shower Cream isn't available, but instead Lush have released Tender Is The Night, a well known Massage Bar, into a Shower Cream that's naked. This means that Lush save on packaging due to it being solid. It works exactly like a Shower Cream, just that its in a solid form. This contains e Flower Infusion, Ylang Ylang Flower Infusion, Fair Trade Shea Butter,  Jasmine Absolute, Ylang Ylang Oil and Vanilla Absolute, which will give your skin a soft feeling but it also means that this prodduct will smell very floral. If you love floral scents then this will be for you!

Others

Cherryish Body Scrub

Cherryish is a Body Scrub that will change your life. You will wanrt to use it to scrub anywhere and everywhere. This scrub contains Murumuru, Illipe and Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butters to nourish the skin, Dried Cherries, Ground Cherry Stones, Vegan White Chocolate, Almond Essence and Fine Sea Salt which scrubs the skin. The scent of this scrub reminds me of the Black Forest Hot Chocolate from Costa and it makes me want to scrub everywhere just so I can have that scent on my body.

Melt My Heart Massage Bar

Shouldn't everyone have a little massage, every now and again? Melt My Heart is the perfect massage bar to use on yourself or whoever you want to at this time of year. If you don't know how to use them, then glide the bar over whoevers skin until it melts a bit and then use your hands to massage that into the skin. This bar contains Orange Flower Oil, Violet Leaf Oil and Olibanium Resinoid to create a deep citrus scent which reminds me of tropical beaches. It aso contains dried rose petals which add texture to the bar.

The Kiss Lip Scrub

In need of a good lip scrub to make your lips irrestible for kissing? The Kiss Lip Scrub has got you! This lip scrub is completely edibke due to the Caster Sugar and Fine Sea Salt that makes up the bulk of this product, which means that you can scrub and then lick off the excess. This product also contains Fair Trade Cocoa Butter to ensure that lips are soft and Sicilian Mandarin Oil to give the scrub a zesty scent.

The Kiss Lip Gloss

This Lip Gloss goes along with the Lip Scrub as they're both named the same. This Gloss contains Guarana Seed Powder which helps the lips tingle to give you a natural enhancer. This product also contains a plethora of oils and butters to keep the lips soft, and to stop them from drying out. It also contains Organic Agave Syrup to keep it sweet, and the Sicilian Mandarin Oil mentioned in the scrub. It gives the lips a slight tint of pink.
