Lush Rock Star Soap

Another candy sweet scent from Lush. Since I'm on a mission to try them all...I had to try this one too!!!

Lush Claims:
There’s nothing hard rock or heavy metal about this soap. We’re serious about soap, but not too serious not to love our pink sudser. It’s unabashedly a best-selling pop hit that everyone, boys and girls, can’t wait to get their hands on. While you may object otherwise, once you try our pink, vanilla-scented cream soap you’ll be singing a different tune. Scented with real vanilla (the gorgeous stuff that comes from pods, not labs), and decorated with soap stars embedded inside you’ll want to give Rock Star a regular rotation in the soap dish.
It's a pepto bismol  creamy pink colored soap that a lot of people love just because of the color. The color is aight but I'm not the biggest fan of pink.

When I first got it the best way I could describe the scent is a sweet candy scent and a mothball having a baby. Luckily when I lather up the mothball scent mellows and it just smells like an artificial mellow candy (not vanilla like Lush claims!). The scent is just Ok for me. Some days it lingers and I like the scent it leaves behind. But I don't love it.

As for lather, it lathers like crazy. On a Loofah. And it cleans really well. 

It may be because it's a bit warmer outside now but it doesn't dry my skin out at all, so no lotion is required although I use it anyway.

Ingredients:
Water, Propylene Glycol, Rapeseed Oil and Coconut Oil,  Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Sodium Stearate, Sodium Hydroxide, Parfum, Titanium Dioxide, Vanilla Absolute, Glycerine, Sodium Chloride, EDTA, Tetrasodium Etidronate, Methylonone, Colour 


As you can tell, I'm not in love with it, and for almost eight dollars for a small piece that melts away super quickly, I would have to be in order to repurchase or even recommend, but then again I'm not a bg fan of Lush candy scented things...I'm not a fan of Godmother and I'm not a fan of this. Maybe if I were 12.

Lush Snow Fairy Soap Review


 Back to my regularly scheduled blogging program. After a really fun weekend in Paris and Disneyland Paris....I had a lot of fun and did a little bit of shopping and then needed recovery time. That was my third time in Paris, and I still really want to go back and go perfume shopping...pick something special up but I'm not sure where to start. Anyway...more Snow Fairy. Lush really does way too much of this scent, I guess because it's one of their most popular Christmas scents, but it's starting to become over the top.

Lush claims:

The scentsational sweetness of our Christmas favourite can now be part of your hand washing routine. Filled with rose water and Fair Trade organic aloe vera for fairy softness, add a touch of magic to your washes.

So even though there are a ton of Snow Fairy scented things...I am starting to realize they all smell a little different. The Dusting Powder  and the Shower Gel smelled the best. The Body Conditioner is a no from me. As are most of the bubble bath/bath bomb stuff. This smells noticeably less bubble gum like than other products in the line. It's more of a sour/sweet candy smell. Very sweet scent. Not my cup of tea. 

The soap itself is really cute. Pink star cut outs in a white base. Very unique looking soap. Still in the new "standard" shape. Which I'm not a fan of overall but it works in this. 

Years ago Lush did a Rock Star soap (do they still have it?), I wasn't a fan of that. I think it was also Snow Fairy but it smells different than this from what I can remember. I think this soap smells better than that did. 

One thing to note, it melts fast. It might last 1-2 weeks. 2.5 weeks if you're careful. 

The ingredients are also improved. Snowfairy scented things used to be really basic in the ingredients. Lush seem to have tried to improve it. It has Rose Water, Lime Oil (no lime scent at all), Rice Bran Oil, and Aloe Vera. My skin feels soft and not dry at all after using the soap.

Ingredients:

Rose Water, Canola Oil, Coconut Oil, Propylene Glycol, Glycerin, Titanium Dioxide, Water, Rice Bran Oil, Perfume, Persian Lime Oil, Fair Trade Organic Aloe Vera, Salt ,Citric Acid, Synthetic Musk, Sodium Hydroxide, Baking Soda, EDTA, Tetrasodium Etidronate, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Limonene, Colour

Overall, not for me. I'm glad they added better ingredients to it, but this scent just isn't something I would repurchase. If you like Snow Fairy this might be worth checking out.

Lush Think Pink Bath Bomb


For some reason I thought this was a bomb where they would send some of the proceeds to breast cancer. I mean...think pink?  But unfortunately it doesn't. I wish Lush would consider donating some of the proceeds to breast cancer. That would be amazing.

Anyway, on the the review.

Lush claims:
A relaxing pink bath bomb with a sweet vanilla and tonka fragrance.
Decorated with candy flowers, this ladylike bomb has a sweet vanilla and tonka scent similar to Rock Star and Creamy Candy. As it gently dissolves, you’ll feel as though you’re getting a big hug - you’ll find yourself surrounded by rice paper confetti hearts that slowly melt away.
Its sweet smell comes from vanilla absolute, while tonka adds a caramel undertone. Neroli gives it a sunny citrus top note, while lavender clears your mind and makes you feel that life is sweet.

So this bomb is a lot smaller than any of the bombs I've had previously. It's pink and has three little flowers in the top. It's pretty cute. 

And it smells amazing. Sort of citrusy and vanilla-y and very pretty smelling. Until you throw it in the water and it becomes hardly detectable. I kind of wish I hadn't thrown it in the water. 

It turns the water pink and has little confetti hearts in it. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pics of the confetti. They stayed at the bottom of the tub most of the time so it was kinda pointless. 

The pink water was pretty cute.

But unfortunately, not being able to smell it was kind of a deal breaker for me. No recommendation.

Did any of you catch the Lush sales they had going on after Christmas? I have a bunch of bath stuff on the way, can't wait until it get's here! 

Have you tried Think Pink? Like it? Love it?
