Easter Lush Baa Bar | Review

It obviously wouldn't be my blog if I didn't review one of Lush's holiday type products for each season. I try not to go crazy and buy too much, as I would buy them all if I could. I try to pick the products that I think I'd like the best to try out and I'm usually right in my choices. This time, for Easter, I've chosen the Baa Bar, because I love sheep and I think it's so cute. How could you not buy this?


This bubble bar is shaped like a sheep, it has a white body and a purple face. I thought it was going to be white throughout the whole body but it's actually the same colour as the purple head on the inside. This smells a lot like Sleepy, which I have reviewed on my blog recently, and it contains the same lavender and soothing qualities it does to help you sleep. I think it's perfect to have that scent in a bath to get you ready for bed. As I've said before I don't particularly like lavender scents but this one is just the right amount that it's sweet but not overwhelming.


After crumbling the product under running water, it begins to turn the bath a lavender colour itself, but a really light pale kind which is really pretty. You don't have to use all of the product at once, I've only used half of it and it still produces a significant amount of bubbles. The product feels soothing on the skin and I would highly recommend any of the products that say that they help sleep, not only for that reason but also because they are so relaxing to have in a bath.


There are a few of the other Easter products that I've been looking at buying before they go out of stock but I love this one.

Has anyone tried this or any of Lush's other Easter range?

Lush Gift Boxes | Little Snow Fairy & Buttercup

I am always behind on writing and finishing posts I've half written ages ago or started and I need to keep more up to date with my blogging. I've tried a few Lush box sets over the past few months and two cute ones I've used are Little Snow Fairy and Buttercup. They're both completely different and contrasting in scents and vibes. Little Snow Fairy is sweet and fun, I also think this is only available around Christmas time, I'm not sure, you can see how far behind in writing I am, while Buttercup has a more relaxed and chill feel about it.



Little Snow Fairy contains one pink fun bar and one small Snow Fairy shower gel. The fun bars are multi-purpose play-dough like substances that can be used as shampoo, shower gel, bubble bath and just to mess with and make fun shapes out of, perfect for younger children. It smells a lot like Snow Fairy, which makes sense in a Snow Fairy box next to Snow Fairy shower gel, how many times can I say the words Snow Fairy in this post? The Snow Fairy scent smells like bubble gum and candy floss and it's Lush's sweetest scent that I know of. I'm obsessed with this scent and think it smells just like a candy factory. I use the shower gel as a bubble bath and it makes a decent amount of bubbles. 




Buttercup contains one Butterball and one piece of Honey I Washed the Kids soap. I have reviewed butterball previously and I continuously purchase it. It's one of Lush's most calming bath bombs and it contains cocoa butter which is soothing and moisturizing for the skin. It smells citrus-y and I would consider it one of Lush's most adult feeling bath bombs. I know that's an odd comparison but it has a de-stressing and relaxing qualities plus it leaves your bath a plain pale white colour, that a younger child might not find exciting enough for a bath bomb, I'm a sucker for sweet smelling colourful bath bombs anyway but. As for the Honey I Washed the Kids soap I haven't used it as I'm not a huge soap fan and don't really know where to keep them after one use. It smells like caramel and just delicious and it has really good reviews on Lush's website here. I know I'll love this product as soon as I get around to using it.

Either one of these products would be perfect as a gift depending on whether you're looking for a sweet and fun box or a relaxing and soothing box of products! Plus the boxes look super adorable.

Has anyone tried these boxes or products before? What do you think?
