Introducing: The Lush Spa Gift Box

I have a huge love of all things LUSH and would easily have a LUSH bath every day if I could. Did you know, that LUSH now have Spas located around the UK, and now you can have a Spa Day in the comfort of your home, with this LUSH Spa Gift Set*. (€32.50)

Before I opened the gift box up, as with all gift sets from Lush, I was in awe of the amount of detail that went into the packaging and its' presentation. The quirky detail of the brown wrapping paper, the brown string, and the stamps on the box, gave it that vintage, chic feel. So immediately it was a thumbs up from me!!

Big Blue bath ballistic... Bath ballistics are one of my favourite things to get when I'm in a Lush store. The huge variety in store is so appealing, and I think I have pretty much tried most of them, and I do definitely have my faves! (Avobath, Dragon's Egg, Golden Wonder, Honey Bee) This bath ballistic is now in that list! It contains lavender oil (relaxing), lemon oil (clears the mind) and seaweed and sea salt (softens the skin). When the stress levels are high, I love nothing more than getting in a warm bath, with this bath ballistic. It also has properties to ease aching muscles, another bonus!
(This is just before the burst of seaweed!)
           When you drop this under running water, it immediately fizzes and dissolves in the water, turning your water a blue colour. THEN there is a burst of seaweed form the middle of the ballistic! The seaweed floating around the bath, cleansed my skin and made my skin feel really soft. TOP TIP- after your bath the seaweed is left lying at the bottom, so you will have to give it a little clean!

Peace Massage Bar... This is the first time I've tried a Massage Bar. Basically this solid bar, begins to soften or melt when you rub it into your skin. I used this is the bath, and just began rubbing it on my legs and arms. I don't feel the need to moisturise my skin after my bath, when I use this. I feel it gives my skin a huge amount of moisture. It contains olive oil, cocoa butter and shea butter, all very nourishing and kind to your skin. I have used this twice so far and it is still lasting me! This massage bar is meant to bring some 'peace' into our busy tired lives!

Full of Grace serum bar... Again, a product I have never tried before from Lush. This has a similar concept to the Peace Massage bar, i.e. a solid bar, which melts upon contact with the skin. This is to be used on the face, as a face serum. I literally began to warm this up in my hands, when I got out of the bath, when my pores were open, and rubbed it gently into my face. The serum bar began to melt and I rubbed the serum into my skin. It was very easy to apply and again, is lasting me very well. This would definitely last you a couple of months, as a little goes a long way. Be careful not to over-apply this, as it will take some time to sink in! It is very handy for travel, and contains rose water which is good for sensitive skin. Ideally this is to be used at night time, to let it soak into your skin overnight. I wouldn't apply this daily as it is quite rich, so about once a week, is how often I'll be applying it.

Stepping Stone foot scrub... This really cute foot scrub, is AMAZING! Not only does it smell amazing, (citrus, zesty) but it has made removing the dead skin off my feet, so easy! It has left my feet feeling so soft, and smooth. This little foot scrub contains sea salt, which gently exfoliates the skin, while also containing jojoba oil, and cocoa butter, which help soften the skin. My feet have never felt so soft and smooth! I have got two uses out of this foot scrub, which I think is pretty good!

This FAB Lush Spa Gift Box, is ideal for this time of year, to give your tired skin, body and muscles a much needed pampering. I definitely have more baths in the winter, to unwind and de-stress during the winter chills!

The combination of using these 4 products have left my skin feeling so soft and full of moisture. I would recommend getting your hands on this Spa Gift Set if you want your skin to be moisturised for the year ahead. Or this gift set would be an ideal gift for your Mum, Sister or a friend, or just for yourself!! You can buy the gift sets in your nearest store, or you can order online and get it delivered to your home! You can also order on-line at www.lush.co.uk
