With there already being a Snowman FUN - a product that proved very popular during last year's seasonal release, there is no wonder that Lush have chosen to bring out a Santa FUN bar to add to the collection. And much like the aforementioned product from last Christmas, this one offers a fragrance that isn't initially what you'd imagine it to be, but one that will guarantee to win you over in the end.

While the bubble bar wasn't a personal favourite of mine, I was rather sad to see it go, as I would always buy a small handful of them to see me through the year. This is why I was a little relieved when I discovered that one of the new FUN bars showcased the same scent; not only could I still enjoy my fragrant floral baths, but I would now be able to enjoy the aroma in the shower as well. A double win.
After peeling back the wrapper of my fresh Santa FUN Bar, I was immediately rekindled with the wonderful aroma that I've come to associate with the winter weather. Containing a generous helping of both jasmine and ylang ylang, this bar is the very epitome of its older sibling - a gentle sweet aroma that cocoons you in cloud of heavenly flora and leaves you feeling refreshed and comforted.

With Lush bringing out the sweet and fruity Snakes And Ladders, and the spicy/fruity Magic Of Christmas FUN, it seems only fitting that the third and final new release should be floral. It definitely makes for a change from the usual candy or cinnamon-dominated shower gels that have been at the forefront of Lush's seasonal collection for a number of years.
As with all of Lush's versatile bars, this one can be used in a variety of different ways - crumbled under the running tap to aid a bubble bath or massaged into the hair for an alternative to shampoo. No matter how you choose to use this FUN bar, the same results are always heeded; your hair and skin will feel super soft and clean, and the wonderful fragrance will linger on your body for an hour or two after you've towelled yourself down.

While I am still very much a shower gel addict, I really appreciate the fact that Lush have offered a number of brand new products this year that aren't limited to the bath. While this is my least favourite of the three, this is only due to my preference for the other scents - not an indication at all on the productivity of this particular product. With Santa FUN being a staple in my shower this winter, Christmas has never smelled so good.

I was very upset that Christmas Eve bubble bar was not out this year ( although I do bet there will be an appearance in the kitchen ) , now I know what "Fun" I will be buying, I was having a hard time deciding and was only going to buy one.
ReplyDeleteDid you find the black part of Santa FUN to be gritty?
ReplyDeleteI've not,no! Has this happened for more than one bar?
DeleteNope that was my first santa. But I'm almost finished him and have another one wrapped up. I'll let you know.
ReplyDeleteI also have a snowman FUN and am interested to see if this happens with him aswell or was just a fluke. I though maybe they used charcoal to make it black or something.
It wasn't a horrible experience luckily I was using it as body wash in the shower, was kind of exfoliating actually. But i don't think I would want this in my bath.
