This is a haul with a bit of a difference...I have never actually set foot in Lush Oxford Street! My gorgeous friend Leanne (from Collars and Frills, go and check out her brand new YouTube channel!!), went down to London a few weeks ago and asked if she could pick anything up from Oxford Street for me. My instructions to her were 'Surprise me. You have a £10 budget' and this is the result!
(Just a bit of a side note, altogether this haul cost over £20, that's the perk of being a Lush employee and being able to use your staff discount in any store)
I have to say, since I gave her very little indication of what I was looking for, Leanne did fantastically and proved that she knows me far too well! Most of this haul is bath oils (yep, definitely knows me too well) but there are gorgeous bubble bar and a bath bomb as well.
Shark Infested Custard Solid Bath Oil
I was SO excited to see this in my bag, I have been wanting to try this since I first read about it. And it smells just as fabulously vanillary as I thought it would! Winner!
Flowers Barrow Solid Bath Oil
This is the only one that I have reservations with. It takes it's scent from the Flowers Barrow Gorilla perfume...which I unfortunately didn't like. Bad times! I keep this at arms reach in my room so that I can just grab it, breathe it in and hope it grows on me. Nope, not happening. I'll keep trying though...
Lime Pastille Solid Bath Oil
Roundtrees fruit pastilles. That's what this one reminds me of! I wish I could eat it. (Sian, stop, you cannot eat that) But seriously this is sweet and fruity and covered in a very fine shimmer. I'm so excited!
Well...it's supposed to be a star, it's a bit of a squashed star now, but still technically a star. I can't put my finger on what this one smells of...but I don't really care, I'm more so hoping that it turns my bath bring pink... What can I say? I love pink!
We've finished on the bath oils and are swiftly moving on to the singular bath bomb. I can't for the life of me remember what this one is called...and the bag is upstairs (meh effort). I think it's called Guardian of the Forest or something along those lines. Leafy and floral, they're the two words I'd use to describe it.
Flowering tea? Is that what this is called? I think so. Doesn't matter now because I've used it and it was glorious! Literally a tea bag for the bath, every addicted tea drinker's dream right! The bubbles that come off this were so soft and had a really light floral scent...beautiful.
Finally, and this is one that is super exciting! A Chinese dragon bubble bar with a fantastic warming spicy cinnamon smell. I can't wait to try this as I love those spicy winter smells! Again, can't remember the name but oh well, it doesn't need to know that I forgot its name.
Thank you Leanne, these choice are amazing!
