Lush Oxford Street haul and review

Hi guys,

You might have seen recently that I filmed a video on YouTube about going to the brand new Oxford Street store. And I showed you some of the products that I got and promised that I would take some good pictures of them so you could see them up close and personal.

Some of the products I have used now so I can review them and some of them I still have to try so I'll let you know about the ones I haven't tried as soon as I use them.

So I think it's time to get on with it. 


This is the first one it's called pink flamingo and it smells like tropical sweets, it's really fruity and has a candy fragrance. This one is a reusable bubble bath and you can probably get at least four baths out of it. This was one of my favourite bubblebaths I picked up, I tend to be drawn towards some of the sweeter fragrances. The display in store for this was really cool too, it was like something out of fantasia.


This one is called yoga bomb and it has a nice uplifting fragrance quite woody and citrusy but also a little sweet. This one was apparently named after jaeger bombs except a lot more relaxing and calming. This one has a very nice orange colour and has lots of gold glitter all over it.


Next up is this brightly coloured bath bomb called the experimenter. As you can see it has lots of different colours and these flow out in the bath to creates a beautiful pattern. It has lots of glitter in it as well so it really is a showstopper. This one was created after the lushtime campaign on Instagram and their website. It was full of brightly coloured and interesting bath cocktails. The way they made this was to take the eight Best selling products in store and to pop the fragrances together and blend them to become a brand new fragrance.


This pretty one is called intergalactic. It starts of blue and all the colours on the middle floor about it has pink yellow and white and they swam and make a beautiful galaxy bath. This one also has theatre in to make it look like the night sky and has a lovely peppermint fragrance. If you like ice blue soap or dirty you might like this.


This one is called cyanide pill it's supposed to look like obviously, a pill. this one has Majorcan almonds into replicate the cyanide fragrance. This one also has little bits of silver in that look like mercury. Is it really interesting bath bomb it's unlike anything out before and I'm very much looking forward to using it.


Next up! This lovely blue bath bomb is called frozen. Inspired by the film it's one of Jack's creations as it's one of the children's favourite films. To make this a little bit more grown-up the fragrance inside has a lot of orange blossom and it smells exactly like the hair conditioner happy happy joy joy. So if you like floral fragrance and I think you're really going to like this one.


I love this one it looks like a teabag which I think is fantastic this one is called flowering tea. It has a nice floral fragrance to it and after you started using this reusable bath bubble I believe flowers are supposed to come out of it which is very exciting. I was drawn to this one because of its shape I think it's a really fun idea that they bringing lots of new shapes into their range.


This one is called divination. I think this one is such a good idea it has lots of patchouly and Rose and Amber in there to be super relaxing that really uplifting it has a copper colour to it so it really does look like a divination pendant. Like you're predicting your future in that you're going to have a lovely relaxing bath. I thought this one was really cool and there's nothing really like it that I have already so I was interested to get something a little bit different.


Oh my god! The shower cream gives me life. This is coconuty and chocolaty and sweet and exactly like some sweets I used to get as a child and I love it so much and I will keep using it and if anyone is going to London they'll have to get me more because I cannot live without it. This one is bright yellow, when use it you do look a little bit like a Simpson, but don't worry it washes off! 


I have used this hair custard in my hair now it is lovely, it's a bit like R&B hair moisturiser they already sell but this one smells like thick lovely custard you can use as a heat treatment and you can use it as a hair conditioner. Nothing wrong with that - will buy again.


So I  have quite a lot to say about this product. This product was in the lush times about a year ago and I was really excited to use it because I thought it would be everything that my hair needed is a bit like big shampoo with the sea Salt and lemon in for the shine it's got lots of egg in it which is great because I have damaged hair. But after using it I've got to say I'm really not a fan it's made my heart feel like I've been to the beach all day, which is kind of its purpose, but I don't feel clean, I can't really run my fingers through my hair properly it's kind of knotty.  I'm a little bit disappointed in this I've  got to say.  
I guess I just thought it was going to be like big shampoo but more moisturising, my hair also took forever to dry after I used this and I haven't got loads of hair, I've got a normal thickness hair that comes down to my shoulders so I guess it depends on your hair type but ,for me, it wasn't right.
Poooooo! 

Now onto the two products that I said I would pop on here because I forgot them for my video. I bought some of the emotional brilliance make up when I was there because they had new colours. They also had them as new products, they had powdered eyeshadow and they had pigments andthey had powder blushes and bronzers. They also had two new mascaras and lipstick that was solid lipstick in a barrel I can wind up and pop my bag any time so I was super excited about that. The eyeliner I bought is called courage and it's a British racing green. And the lip colour I bought is called amorous and it's a pinky red glitter.




So there you have it my lush Oxford Street hole in pictures. I hope you like it if you didn't you are reading this please add it to your reading list.
