| lyoness913's Full Review: LUSH Christmas Kisses Bubble Bar Personal Care |
I really love all of the 'holiday' scents one can purchase at bath shoppes throughout the Thanksgiving and Christmas season. I was especially disappointed in Bath and Body Works' holiday choices this year, because they are serverely lacking anything that smells like pumpkin pie, cinammon or gingerbread. I was really pleased on my last visit to LUSH because one of their holiday items was most pleasing to my sense of scent. LUSH Christmas Kisses Bubble Bar is a wonderful bubble bar made by LUSH which is full of pleasing holiday warmth and goodness.
LUSH Christmas Kisses Bubble Bar is shaped like a Hershey's kiss. It weighs 3.5 ounces and costs about 7.00USD. It's orange/red in colour and there is a cinnamon stick sticking out of it's side. It looks very festive. In it's solid form, Christmas Kisses smells like cinnamon and hot, spicy cider. It's a very enjoyable and inviting scent.
My LUSH Christmas Kisses Bubble Bar lasted for about six baths. I just crumbled it and put in the pieces one by one. You just put a few pieces of this bubble bar under the running water in your bath, and it forms copious amounts of bubbles. The bubbles smell just like the bath bomb, spicy and very cinnamon-like. The scent lingered for hours in my bathtub after my bath. I was a little worried about the orange colour of the bubble bar as I thought it might leave a ring or stain the tub, but it did not do either. The bubbles turn white as soon as Christmas Kisses hits the water. The scent not only stays in the bathroom, but it lingers on my skin for hours as well. It's a great bubble bar to use on a cold night before going to bed.
As far as the effects LUSH Christmas Kisses Bubble Bar made on my skin, well.. that's a different story. Although this bubble bar smells fantastic, it doesn't really soften the water or improve my skin at all. I still had to use lotion after my bath. It doesn't dry my skin at all, it just doesn't do anything to moisturize it.
Here are the ingredients, taken from the LUSH web site:
Sodium Bicarbonate, Tartaric Acid, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Lauryl Betaine, Cocoamide DEA, Eugenia Caryophyllus (Clove) Leaf Oil , Pogostemon Cablin Oil, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil, Styrax Benzoin Resin Extract, Cinnamomum Cassia Leaf Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, *Cinnamal, *Coumarin, *Eugenol, *Limonene, *Linalool, Perfume, D&C Red No.4, Cinnamomum Cassia,.
If you're looking for something to soothe chapped skin, LUSH Christmas Kisses Bubble Bar probably isn't something you'd want to use. However, if you're looking for a wonderful holiday scent which lasts in your bathroom and on your skin, you will probably love this bubble bar!
