It's funny how you learn to live without something for so long, and then when you get it back you wonder how in the world you managed to survive without it. Case in point, a bath tub. After living in an apartment for a year that only had a shower, I forgot just how wonderful it was to have a tub. Sure, my wallet probably thanked me for that year because I had no need for any extra bath products, but sometimes you have to treat yourself! Plus, having the extra room for shaving your legs is ideal. If there's one thing I hate more than washing my hair, it's shaving my legs. Who's with me?
The first thing I did after buying a shower curtain for my new tub was head straight to LUSH to pick up some new bath goodies. If you've never tried any of their products before, you must do so as soon as possible. I'm going to try and keep my product hoarding to a minimum so that I actually use what I buy, so here's what I bought to get started!
When I think of LUSH, this scent is what always comes to mind. It's officially described as "blackcurrant candy" on the LUSH website, which to me is the perfect amount of sweetness. I swear I might just take a bite out of it one of these days. It's my favorite of all their bath products by far so I always pick one up every time I make a trip to the store. What I like about this one in particular too is that it's huge so you can get multiple baths from the one bar.
Because I wanted to up the sweet factor a notch, I also went with this bubble bar. If you like vanilla and cotton candy and want to smell like you bathed in sugar, this is the one for you. There are also chunks of cocoa butter that melt into the water to soften and soothe your skin so it's almost like getting two products for the price of one!
Every time I look at this bubble bar it instantly makes me happy because it's so darn cute. And once I pop it in the bath as the name suggests, I'm taken away to a calm and relaxed state of mind. This one isn't so much sweet but I'm still drawn to the soothing citrus scent. If citrus isn't normally your thing, don't worry. It's not so overbearing that you end up smelling like an orange. Be sure to show this one off on your bathroom vanity until your ready to use it.
You know I couldn't deter from my sweet theme for too long. I've never used this bath bomb before but I couldn't resist purchasing it after getting a whiff of the yummy honey and toffee goodness. I guess you could say it was love at first ... smell. As with all bath bombs, I'll just plop it into the water for a single bath and let it work its magic.
This is another first time purchase for me, and I have to tell you that I had no idea about the love potion story behind this bath bomb at the time. It's actually quite comical given my current situation ... but that's for another day. All voodoo aside, if you enjoy rose and floral scents, this is a good bet for you. It's said to give positive and happy vibes, which I think we can never get enough of.
What are your favorite LUSH bath products?
