HUGE Christmas Lush Haul

It's November? Christmas season shouldn't start until Thanksgiving/December 1st? Sorry, I suddenly can't hear. What a phenomenon. Lush released their 2016 Christmas line toward the end of October and I went in and took a gander at all of the wonderful goodies that were made for the Holiday Season. I did wait until November 5th to purchase them, but then I went all in, excluding the sweeter scents and the angel bath melt because, quite frankly, I don't like the smell of them, plus maybe a few more items that I overlooked. Sue me. This is going to be a long post, so let's jump right into it, shall we?

Snowie Bubble Bar
$8.95
This is a new item and oh my God is it cute. It's got some shimmer to it, which I am always a fan of and is a tribute to the late David Bowie, although I think that goes without saying. The scent is fresh. The Lush catalog says it's "grapefruit-rose," but I don't smell any rose, to be honest. I'm beyond excited to try this one out.

The Christmas Penguin Bubble Bar
$7.45
Who doesn't like a cute penguin around Christmastime? That's what I thought. This one smells like a diluted orange covered in sugar.
Peeping Santa Bubble Bar
$6.95
Peeping Santa is adorable. It lasts for about two baths and it just makes me so unbelievably happy. As the Lush catalog says, the bubble bar is fruity, so it's slightly sweet, but the melting chocolate eyes make up for that (please don't eat them--I doubt they taste very nice).

Sparkling Red Slippers Bubble Bar
$7.45
I'm all about the glitter when it comes to bath products, so I'm excited to try this one out. It's not coated in glitter the way the Pumpkin Bubble Bar is, but instead the glitter looks to be incorporated into the bar itself. The scent is spicy, which is always nice to find in a bath product.

The Magic of Christmas Reusable Bubble Bar
$8.95
I bought this one last year and it was one of my favorite products from the line. It has glitter, it's citrus-y (the catalog says almond, which I guess I can see) with a hint of spice, it's on a cinnamon stick, and it has a bell! Can you say Christmas or nah? I just love everything about this bubble wand and it lasts for a good three to four uses, so you definitely get your money's worth.
Santasaurus Reusable Bubble Bar
$8.95
The catalog says this bubble wand has a toffee scent, but I think it just smells like a classic Lush soap? I don't know. I like it anyway and it's cute as all Hell. I can't wait to try this little bub out.

Mistletoe Bath Bomb
$7.95
This bath bomb is a little sweeter than I tend to go for, but it's definitely not a sweet scent the way Snow Fairy is--it's more of a floral or earthy scent, but with some sweetness in it? I haven't tested it out, but I've been told it turns your bath water purple. What's not to like about that?

Shoot for the Stars Bath Bomb
$6.95
I'm excited to use this one because I want to know what it does to the bath water. The scent is alright; it's a little sweet, but I guess that's too be expected when the main scent note is honey.
Never Mind the Ballistics Bath Bomb
$7.95
To be honest, I don't really like the smell of this one, but it's new and it's dipped in a bath melt or something, so I couldn't just leave the store without giving it a shot. The catalog says that it'll fill the bath water with "colorful swirls," so hopefully the sickeningly sweet scent (and the headache I'm getting from it) will be worth it.

So White Bath Bomb
$6.75
Lush changed the packaging on this classic bath bomb this year, adding a green apple leaf to the all-white bomb and I 100% support it. So White is probably my favorite bath bomb Lush have: it's fresh and simple and now it just reminds me of the goodness of the Holiday Season.

Golden Wonder Bath Bomb
$6.95
My favorite thing about Golden Wonder is that it has extra goodies inside of it! If you shake the bomb, you can hear something rattle inside and when you drop it in the bath, beautiful colors come out from the simple white-and-gold packaging that is the bomb itself. The smell is simple and I can't really explain it, but honestly, the smell is second to the jingle from within the bomb.
Northern Lights Bath Bomb
$7.50
We don't celebrate Fireworks Night in the U.S., but I was excited nonetheless to finally see this one in stores. It has a nice floral scent and I'm hoping that it makes my bath water as beautiful as the Fireworks Night pictures I see on my Instagram feed.

Butterbear Bath Bomb
$4.95
Do I have to say much about this one? It's the same scent and formula as Lush's Butterball, so it's simple in scent and gratifying for your skin. I can't recommend this one enough.

Luxury Lush Pud
$7.95
This is another Holiday favorite for me. Lavender is one of my favorite scents, and when you mix it with pops of color to float around the bath, I honestly don't see what's not to like. 

Salt and Peppermint Bark Body Scrub
$9.95
This body scrub is hands down my second favorite one that Lush makes (Buffy being the first) and it's solely for the smell. Yes, it does what it's supposed to and exfoliates your skin, leaving it soft and new, but it smells like heaven. It's minty, but almost like a chocolate-y mint without the disgustingly sweet scent of chocolate. I'm obsessed.

Bonus: Sample of Christingle Body Conditioner
$14.95 for 3.1 oz/ $26.95 for 7.4 oz
I didn't buy this one because even though it smells fantastic and peppermint-y, the price was a little steep. I've never used a Lush body conditioner (or any body conditioner) before, so I'm actually really excited to try this one out and see if it's worth the high price tag.

Let me know if you guys purchase any of these products and if so, which ones you like the most. Happy (almost) holidays!
