Lush Bath Cocktails
Lush products are unique in that you can be creative mixing different bath products together to create your own individual scent. I am a somewhat mad scientist when it comes to using Lush products. I have had people ask for my favourite Lush cocktails and I have a number of favourite recipes to share with you.
Pink Kiss- for an elegant yet girly bath
Half a Think Pink bath ballistic
Third of French Kiss bubble bar
This makes a lovely vanilla and lavender bath, and I especially like the combination of my favourite scents. Wash hair with any shampoo, condition with American Cream and moisturise with Therapy massage bar to layer similar scents (making it last longer).
Very Berry- for a cold winter evening
Half Blackberry bath ballistic
Half Comforter bubble bar
This is a real winter scent; if you are a fan of fruity smells then this Lush cocktail is for you.
Candy Dream- when you are craving sweets
Half a Creamy Candy bar
Third of Ma bar
Quarter Dreamtime bath melt
Within moments of crumbling Creamy Candy bar and Ma bar the bathroom was immersed in the most amazingly sweet scent. Adding the chunk of Dreamtime made it into a real skin softening treat. This is definitely one for those with a sweet tooth, and those who like lots of bubbles.
Citrus Shock- to wake up after a late night
Half Happy Pill bath ballistic
Half Avobath
This makes a shocking coloured bath, however the smell is lovely. You can add half a Sunnyside bubble bar to mask the colour with lots of bubbles and gold glitter.
Pinkilla- for a girly pampering session
Half Vanilla Fountain
Half Mmm Melting Marshmallow Moment bath melt
Half Think Pink
I liked combining these three together as I find Vanilla Fountain a tad sickly on its own. I love the smell of this and feel free to substitute Frosty Gritter for Think Pink if you want bubbles!
Jasmine Cream- to smell like a vamp and banish PMT
Half Sex Bomb Bath ballistic
Third Creamy Candy bubble bar
Dollop of Flying Fox shower gel
Apparently Jasmine is great when your hormones are all over the place. Add the shower gel to the bath first before running water. Then add water and crumble bubble bar, finally adding the ballistic. A nice bubble bath with a hint of jasmine, the bath goes a nice colour and it leaves skin feeling really soft.
Milky Skies- for grown ups to share
Third Blue Skies and Fluffy White Clouds
Half a Butterball bath ballistic
Third Hot Milk? bubble bar
This cocktail creates a nice and lively scented bath which can be used by both men and women.
Froooty- to banish hangovers
Half Avobath
Half Pop in the Bath bubble bar
You’ve been Mangoed bath melt
If you wake up feeling drowsy and don’t even have the energy to stand in the shower try this cocktail. The combination of fruity scents give your nostrils a real treat and leave you wide awake for the rest of the day.
Honey bliss- for the softest skin in the world
Third Ma bar
Half Honey Bee bath ballistic
Half Butterball bath ballistic
Add the bubbles first by crumbling Ma bar and then add the ballistics. If you want lovely soft smooth skin try this one, the softening properties of Butterball and Honey Bee work really well together.
Zing! – The best pre-clubbing bath
Sexbomb bath ballistic
Half Pop in the Bath bubble bar
This smells unbelievably wonderful; you will leave the bath feeling bouncy and sophisticated at the same time. The floral scents in Sexbomb complement Pop in the Bath’s citrus goodness really well.
Purple heaven- Purpley bubbly goodness
Bathos bubble bar
Half Sexbomb bath ballistic
This is for the diva who loves purple. It smells great and reminds me of parma violets.
On the Beach- For when you need a holiday
Big Blue bath ballistic
Half Sunnyside bubble bar
Small chunk Blue Skies and Fluffy white Clouds bubble bar
Zzzzzzzzzzz- For when you need to get to sleep
Half French Kiss bubble bar
Half Hot Milk bubble bar
Waving not drowning bath ballistic
Therapy for muscles- post-workout pampering
Geophyzz
Half Dreamtime bath melt
Chunk of Therapy massage bar
Yes I do stick massage bars into baths too! I love how a small chunk adds so much moisture.
Geisha- to feel like a goddess
Sakura bath ballistic
Tisty Tosty bath ballistic
Half Butterball bath ballistic
Half Dreamtime bath melt
This is a real floral treat and butter ball makes it into a huge treat for your skin.
Making Lush bath cocktails is a lot of fun so use these recipes as a guide, but try your own combinations. Certain products mix well with pretty much everything like Butterball and Honey Bee, and others need a bit more thought like Geo Phyzz.
