Snow Fairy Soap




A Christmas period without an abundance of Snow Fairy would almost be the the same as having a birthday party without cake: it just wouldn't feel right. Yet that's not to say that us long-term Lush fans always appreciate the number of products that saturate the seasonal range every year. I'll be honest and say that there hasn't been a Snow Fairy scented product that has ever excited me as much as the original shower gel, and there hasn't ever been a Snow Fairy release that has made me want to buy more than the initial one I've invested in, aside from the potted body conditioner.

Yet this year Lush have decided that the millions of sickly candy-scented products wouldn't be complete without a soap to join their ranks. Last year's cold-pressed version wasn't obviously in agreement with a large percentage of consumers, so this year's rendition is a hexagonal block of bright pink goodness.

Sharing it's design with one of last year's bath bombs, this pink block of solid oils looks like the Barbie version of a snowflake. Yet a difference that I noticed straight away with the fragrance of this was that the inclusion of the marshmallow root seems to give this soap an almost extra powdery note on top of the usual sickly sweet scents that you would expect.

For those who have never tried Snow Fairy, this is easily Lush's most commercial and also their most synthetic fragrance that they have ever produced. You wouldn't be hard-pressed to find something similar to this smell in your regular high street stores: which is why many new Lush fans find themselves hooked on this scent family first.

As I have described in the million and one other reviews of Snow Fairy smelling cosmetics, the scent of this soap is like a playful, youthful candy floss aroma, with hints of raspberry bubblegum and synthetic vanilla alongside this. While the smell is very intense and does last a while on the skin, I wouldn't ever say that this fragrance was particularly complex or interesting.

What I found promising with this soap rendition is that it lathers up wit ease under the running water, and it didn't take more than a matter of seconds to produce enough foam to clean my entire body with. However, because it is rather generous, the block tends to shrink fairly quickly, and I found that after using it for the first week - even when I made a conscious effort to keep it away from too much water - that the a good third of the bar had been used. 

Although I'm only estimating a time frame, I can imagine a 250g bottle of the original shower gel lasting almost quadruple the amount of time that one of these Snow Fairy soaps would last me, and I happen to think that the smell of the shower gel is far better, and far more robust, than what this soap has offered me recently. 

As with most soaps I have tried from Lush, Snow Fairy isn't exactly the most moisturising on my skin, and I did need to moisturise afterwards in order to retain the moisture in my skin. Luckily, Lush have re-released their body conditioner this year so I was able to use that to restore some of the missing moisture. However, this is not something I would usually need to worry about with any of their shower gels and jellies. 

Therefore, if you're in love with the Snow Fairy scent, you will probably appreciate that Lush have created another format to get your eager hands on. However, if you're not particularly bothered by this fragrance family, you may wish to choose an alternative product to try, or stick with the shower gel if you fancy something sweet, but something that is equally moisturising. 

As a stocking filler, this would make a nice little gift, as it looks rather lovely and does have a pretty smell to enjoy. However, the speed in which the soap shrinks; and the lack of moisture that it leaves on your skin afterwards, means that this is not something I would advocate buying many of.

Amelia Kringle Bauble Bath Melt





Despite the fact that the sun is shining outside of my window, my sole mission this afternoon was to bathe with a product that's been with me since the end of Christmas 2018. Why I still hadn't used this bauble up until now was simple, and something I have already explained in some of my other reviews of the products that came out alongside this one.

During December of last year, an array of beautiful bauble bath melts and tablets appeared on Instagram, followed quickly by the naked stores in Germany and Japan. Sporting gorgeous colours and a variety of scents, consumers wondered if they'd ever be able to get their hands on the little gems, as they really were quite gorgeous. After a little confusion, they appeared on Lush's website a few hours after Christmas day, only to disappear completely after a couple of hours and never to make a return.

Amelia Kringle was one of four bauble bath melts to feature in the flash sale and would have perhaps been one of the most popular ones, given what it had to offer fans. Sharing its scent with the Mmmelting Marshmallow Moment Bath Oil, this bauble showcased the seasonal Snow Fairy fragrance much like its older sibling does.

With a circumference roughly 7cm wide and with a thickness a little under a centimetre, this is definitely one of the biggest bath melts that Lush have ever unleashed into the world. While it is definitely a very intense experience to put the whole thing into the tub at once, I would suggest that you cut this into three or four pieces, as that would make it much better value for money. 

You certainly don't need to use the entire melt in one go and it would be far less messy breaking off pieces whilst its dry than hanging or storing the tablet once it's already been in the water. As the etching on the front of the melt dissolves first in the water, there is nothing particularly pretty about hanging a blob of pale pink butters around your room afterwards. For this reason, dividing this into four pieces would be a much better and slightly less messier way of enjoying this bauble.


When it comes to Snow Fairy scented products, there is always very little to go by from the ingredients list as most of the fragrance comes from the synthetic musk and perfume that is added in. What I will say is that Amelia Kringle offers a sweet and playful smell that has elements of both raspberry bubblegum and vanilla musk.

These two components offer consumers a gentle and very simplistic aroma and is very in-keeping with the aforementioned bath oil above. In fact, the only difference between the two is that the smell of this bauble is perhaps slightly stronger than the miniature bath oil, but at the same time is also a little less 'fruity' as well.

Once in the water, Amelia Kringle rests on the surface and slowly ebbs streams of pastel pink oils under and across the surface. These oils and butters tend to linger around the product at first so you have to swish it around with the piece of string to help it dissolve across the whole tub. After using half of one of these baubles, I found that the water turned a strange colour, which I would almost describe as being like pink and beige mixed together. It certainly wasn't the most appealing of colours but I was at least grateful that some form of colouration happened. 


What I will say is that I could definitely detect a change in the consistency of the water and I found that my skin felt smoother and softer within minutes. After towelling myself down, I could really notice how nourished my skin looked and felt and this is something that I felt was perhaps intensified somewhat because of the size of the bath melt I was using.

Another great point about Amelia Kringle was the fact that the fragrance stayed with me throughout my entire bath and I was able to smell gentle remnants of it on my skin afterwards as well. While these lingering notes were fairly subtle, it was still a lovely way to send myself off to bed.

Overall, this wasn't the most interesting of baubles to look at, neither did it pertain a smell that I find myself getting overly excited about. However, this bauble did an amazing job with my skin; offered a strong enough experience that it was prolonged past the bath itself; and would have made Snow Fairy fans really excited to try their favourite scent out in a new format. I only hope that Lush choose to bring these back again this year so that the rest of the world can try them out for size.

Bubblegum Toothy Tabs



I don't think anyone was at all surprised to learnt that Lush decided to release a Snow Fairy scented/tasting toothy tab. It was only a matter of time before the popular fragrance was incorporated into something that consumers could actually put in their mouth and almost class as 'edible.' It doesn't come as any surprise either that the tabs are sporting a playful shade of pink. 

As one of Lush's biggest selling shower gels, it makes complete sense that the company would have a go at bringing out the idea in as many formats as possible. Fast forward then to Bubblegum: one of ten limited edition toothy tabs that recently arrived on the shelves as exclusives for the Liverpool store.

Described as 'a candy floss flavoured treat', these limited edition tabs feature the amazing ingredient, marshmallow root, which adds a gorgeous sweet and delicious fragrance to many of Lush's other scrumptious aromas. In the case of these toothy tabs, they do an amazing job at not only replicating the smell of Snow Fairy perfectly, but they also help to create a taste that couldn't be any closer to what fans have probably always envisaged their favourite smell to taste like.

From the bottle, the sweet and playful notes of candy floss and raspberry bubblegum jump straight out and up your nose. After sniffing my pot for almost ten minutes, and then comparing it to the small bottle of the shower gel that I still have, I honestly couldn't tell any difference between the two besides from the fact that Bubblegum Toothy Tabs appeared a little powdery to my nose.

When in use, these exclusive tabs created a sweet and gently musky taste that tasted very much like the smell of Snow Fairy. It's an odd way of describing a taste, but those who have the fortunate of trying them out for themselves will no doubt understand what I mean when I say that they taste how the classic scent smells. 

As with most of Lush's other toothy tabs, Bubblegum contain a number of ingredients that work in the same way as regular toothpaste does: dicalcium phosphate anhydrous is the main ingredient in these toothy tabs and is a component used to help supplement the body's calcium intake, not to mention preventing the build up of tartar in the mouth; sorbitol is a natural alternative to sugar, which allows Lush to add flavour to this product without adding anything that'll rot your teeth; Lauroyl Sarcosine not only helps the product to foam up in the mouth but is also used to remove unwanted bacteria that may cause problems in the future.

To use them you simply pop a tab into your mouth, crunch down using your front teeth, wet your toothbrush and begin to brush your teeth as normal. The powdery mixture reacts with the water and the cream of tartar creates a foam that freshens your mouth and cleans away any stubborn pieces of food that may be lingering around. Unlike some of Lush's other tabs I have tried, this one melts almost immediately upon contact with moisture and you won't need to crunch these at all.

What I liked about these tabs was that they produced a rather generous foam when in use, and even when I rinsed my mouth out halfway through, I was still able to stimulate a lot more foam when beginning to brush my teeth again. I found that I could continue brushing my teeth for a good 5 minutes without running out of product and they left my mouth feeling thoroughly clean afterwards. It was just a shame that the taste of these was very mild and therefore the impact they had in my mouth was equally as disappointing.

While these tabs won't leave you with amazingly minty-fresh breath, and this may be something you'll have to get used to, it does leave a pleasant but very gentle taste for a short while afterwards. For those who dislike the heavy taste that mint can leave in your mouth, these would be a great alternative as they'll leave your teeth feeling clean without leaving much of a taste in your mouth afterwards. 

I was actually really impressed to find that the 'taste of Snow Fairy' stayed with me for a good couple of hours after I have initially brushed my teeth. During this time, my mouth felt and tasted super clean and I was confident that my breath was also gently sweet and fruity. Had I eaten within that time, I'm sure that the taste would have dispersed far quicker. However, it goes to show that the effects of these tabs last for quite an impressive amount of time.

Usually I opt for the toothy tabs that have a little more bite. There is something I quite enjoy about using a toothpaste or mouthwash that feels as if I have  burnt my mouth free of any living bacteria. However, these were really pleasant and make a great alternative to those more potent toothy tabs. I'm actually really grateful that Lush have decided to release these.

Candy Bubble Brush Reusable Bubble Bar



Yawn, yawn, Snow Fairy, yawn. I hate to admit this, especially with the scent family being one of the most popular ones that Lush have ever created, but I'm pretty sick and tired of any product that offers me this smell. The company have so many amazing fragrances to work with and this one just pales in comparison - in my opinion. Having said that, I needed to make this review helpful to others, and at least try not list off my dislikes so here goes...

Candy Bubble Brush is one of three brand new reusable bubble bars that were released from the #lushlabs department last week. While they initially just look and sound like any other of Lush's many reusable wands, albeit a different shape, there is a slight difference that needs to be mentioned in this review.

Whether intentional or not, one of the first things I noticed about many of the bubble bars that have come from the #lushlabs release this month, is that the amount of colouring that the bubble bars offer are very intense - much more so than previous variations. It only took a couple of seconds for a vivid shade of pink to bleed into the water and this intensified quite a bit by the time I had finished running my bath.

The downside to this is that Candy Brush is a nightmare when being stored in between uses. Until the bubble bar is completely dry, it will leave pink trails all over your hands and bathroom, and it does take a little scrubbing to remove, especially around your finger nails. For this reason, be careful that you don't drip it anywhere, and I would suggest that you lay it on a wet wipe until it is completely dry as it will mark your bath otherwise. 

Having said that, this reusable bubble bar was super effective at making bubbles. While you need to stimulate them with your hands rather than being naturally made under the running tap, the bubbles you do create are super fragrant and beautifully soft. Alongside the silky soft water, this bubble bar makes for a really impressive bath. 

As I mentioned above, Candy Brush shares its scent with the Snow Fairy family, so you can expect a light, sweet and slightly musky candy smell. The scent is a sugary-sweet candy floss scented bubble bar, with hints of bubblegum and pear drops thrown in there for good measure. Unfortunately, it is one of Lush's most synthetic-smelling products, so don't expect anything interesting on that front.

Despite this, I found this product to be much stronger in scent than the likes of the Magic Wand Reusable Bubble Bar that comes out every Christmas, and I'd say it did a good job at mimicking the liquid perfume rather well. Given its format, it's naturally much lighter in scent than the body conditioner or shower gel but the Snow Fairy fragrance is definitely in full play here.

Although I was never going to be bowled over by this product, I was rather pleased to see how well it worked, and given another scent family I probably would have found it even more appealing. It creates a wonderfully vivd bath, with lots of soft, beautiful bubbles, and the scent remains present throughout the experience. Furthermore, I could smell slight remnants of the scent on my skin afterwards, and coupled with the body spray would make Snow Fairy fans very satisfied.

Argan Dragon Shower Oil



Let's get one thing straight: I am never normally excited when a new 'Snow Fairy' scented product hits the shelves. While some of the them do win me over once I've tried them, the fragrance itself has been done to death now, and I for one am not enamoured by the fan-favourite at all. Having said that, I did find myself a little more intrigued than usual about Argan Dragon Shower Oil.

Firstly, Lush have described this shower oil as being like the cosmetic version of a superfood. Packed full of beetroot juice, dragon fruit powder and poppy seeds, this limited edition reads like a smoothie, and possesses the properties to help the skin in the same way that a smoothie would support the body.

The inclusion of dragon fruit powder gives this block a big boost of antioxidants, which not works at making your skin healthier but helps your complexion appear uplifted and perkier. Dragon fruit is also known for being rich in vitamin C, so it helps to brighten the skin as well. Alongside this, beetroot juice is a rich source of iron, vitamins and minerals that not only supports healthy skin but helps to add a wonderful glow to your complexion as well. 

Argan Dragon also contains poppy seeds, which you can see under the surface of the product itself. These beauties soothe the skin and and calm any itchiness that you may have from rashes or irritations. The seeds are also known to act as an effective painkiller by relieving the pain caused by skin inflammation. While I don't think there are enough present in this block to do much in the way of this, it cannot not help those with skin that need a little tender loving care.

As if this wasn't enough of an incentive for me to try this product, the argan oil used to make Argan Dragon is sourced directly from Morocco, where the profit helps to provide rural communities there with a stable income. While it is obviously amazing when any country benefits in such a way, Morocco happens to hold a big place in my heart, therefore making this shower oil even more appealing to me on a personal level. 

How to use a shower oil is down to personal preference, although I have tried a few variations and have discovered the way that works best for me. Much like a body butter, I tend to find that these beauties work better at the end of your shower/bath, when your skin is clean and ready to be moisturised.

Ensure your skin is damp and then step out of the way of the running water. Massage the bar gently, in a circular motion, across the areas of your body that you wish to moisturise. Try not to apply too much pressure as the shower oils are very generous, and I just feel that you'd coat your skin with too much oil and use up the block far quicker this way. 

What you will find is that the shower oils will leave a light layer of oils on your skin, which you can then use you hands to massage even deeper into your skin. Unlike a body butter or a body conditioner, the oils are not at all greasy, nor do they feel at all heavy. Instead, it feels and looks as if you've applied a little baby oil to your skin.

Argan Dragon was very generous on my skin - melting with ease to create a gentle coating of oils and butters that I was able to massage across my body. My skin felt instantly nourished and looked and felt soft and moisturised for the rest of the day. As I had spent the last few months in hot countries, my skin was lacking its usual radiance and this shower oil replenished that moisture and made it appear instantly healthier.

As with all of Lush's new shower oils, I didn't need to moisturise at all afterwards, yet I also didn't get the impression that I'd applied anything too heavy on my skin either. Those with sensitive skin; those who dislike using body lotions daily because of the irritation they can bring about; or those who are concerned with how saturated the pores can get from the product build up of using a lotion regularly, may be interested to learn that this little beauty replicates the same results, but is far more easy-going on the skin.

Most are familiar with the sweet, fruity fragrance of Snow Fairy, and you'll be able to recognise the pear drop scented scent immediately. It is definitely not the strongest version of the smell but the fan-favourite aroma is present both during and after the shower, and this scent can then be topped up by the recently released Snow Fairy Body Spray.   

Overall, I was really impressed with this tear-shaped exclusive and would be a product I invest in again, if the opportunity arises. If applying to the whole body, and doing so without too much exposure to water, I envisage that one of these blocks would last you a few months at least. While this does still mean that it works out more expensive than one of Lush's larger body lotions, there is something rather beautiful how gentle this feels on the skin, and the lack of packaging is also a welcome bonus.

Snow Fairy Sparkle Jar




As far as ideas go, this new concept is definitely very sweet and quirky, but I’d definitely say it’s more suited as a seasonal gift as opposed to a staple item in your collection. Only time will tell whether or not these jars will leave a lasting impression on Lush fans, although I can imagine this is not the last we will see of them...

Snow Fairy Sparkle Jar is one of two limited edition 'naked boxes' to make themselves known this Christmas. While brand new to the seasonal range, neither of them offer new scents - with this one, not surprisingly, sharing its scent with the popular Snow Fairy Range.

With an astonishing number of new products released in the scent this year, Snow Fairy fans are being spoiled rotten with their sweet, musky seasonal favourite. While this jar is reminiscent of the numerous products in this fragrance, I really liked the fact that this one was a little more powdery and a little less sickly-sweet than the shower gel. Snow Fairy Sparkle Jar is probably closer to Candy Fluff and the Liquid Perfume than anything: it’s a little more reserved and thus more exquisite because of this.

Contain an amalgamation of different butters and oils, the sparkle jars firstly work as massage bars. Simply massage them across your body and the heat will gently melt a thin layer away to moisturise and nourish your skin. I found that this one was a little stubborn to use at first, and I would recommend that you use it immediately after a shower or bath, as the heat will help the jar to be a little less stubborn when releasing those oils. If used when you’re cold, you could find that the product will leave sticky streaks across your skin, and you may need to rinse yourself and start again.  

As well as a massage bar, this product contains a filling of dusting powder - which should be used after you’ve applied the oils, to soften your skin further and leave a layer of sparkle to your skin. Although my picture shows that I severed the lid off to access the powder, you are supposed to pierce the two holes in the top and then sprinkle it into your skin. 

If using Snow Fairy Sparkle Jar, you need to be aware of two important things. Firstly, the massage bar is technically hollow inside, so you cannot apply as much pressure as you might normally do with a regular massage bar. In addtion, you may want to keep your eye on how much powder you have left inside (the more you use the jar), as if the outer layer thins too much after, you could end up with a messy spillage.

Secondly, the dusting power will leave a faint pink ‘glow’ across the areas of skin that you apply it to, and there will be a shimmer of silver lustre as well. For this reason, I would think carefully about when and how you’re using the sparkle jar, as this probably wouldn’t be very appropriate  to use all of the time. Having said that, I’m sure that most people who choose to use this, will probably have made me peace with both of these ideas beforehand.

While the concept was adorable and definitely something I would add to a small gift hamper or stocking, I don’t think this is a product that I would use regularly. Although always one for a Sparkle-fest, I am not overly bowled over by the Snow Fairy scent anymore, and I do had my limits when it comes to how much lustre I want to coat my skin in.

Another aspect that will prevent me from buying another is that I don’t find my skin particularly benefits from the butters and oils, anywhere near to the same standard as a regular massage bar. This is definitely more about the novelty than the nourishment of the skin - something I need to ensure does happen during the colder months.

Ultimately, I love that Lush are trying out new ideas, and this will prove really popular throughout the seasonal months. Snow Fairy fans will appreciate a new product to try their hands at, and handfuls of these will find themselves as gifts for certain. However, I will continue to use my Sparkle Jar every now and then, but I don’t have any interest in buying another one before they disappear.

Snow Fairy Body Spray


The Lush community is always torn around Christmas time: those who relish in everything Snow Fairy, and those that roll their eyes and turn the other cheek. While I used to be the former, I am probably far more like the latter group now - although there are still a few formats that get my heart racing and my mouth salivating. 

Snow Fairy Body Spray is a given really, especially with all of the body sprays that have been released this year so far. We've had Twilight; we've been gifted with Rose Jam, so it makes sense that this had to be one of the next ones to rear its head. While many were turn their cheek at this, you cannot deny that £15 for this large bottle of seasonal fragrance is an absolute bargain, and guaranteed to please those fans around the county that have been pining after the perfume for years. 

While I was expecting it to replicate the perfume, I found that the fragrance of the spray was actually far closer to the original body conditioner than anything else. Much like the seasonal gel and last year's Body Conditioner, this spray is super sweet and playful, and may be considered far too sickly some people's tastes. 

For those who aren't familiar with the scent family, Snow Fairy is supposed to smell like pear drops and bubblegum; cotton candy and vanilla musk. There is something both youthful and slightly synthetic about the fragrance. You can smell a syrup-like fruitiness, which does make it very much like a fresh bag of candy floss to my nose, yet the inclusion of the vanilla absolute gives it musky undertones that are a little the delicate sifting of icing sugar. 

Far from being one of Lush's most complex aromas, Snow Fairy Body Spray is still a lovely addition to the family. What I liked about this spray was that it stayed present on my body for a good many hours, and I appreciated the way the warmth of my skin developed the different notes over time. While the initial smell impressed me more than the liquid perfume did, as it was stronger, richer and sweeter, I also liked that the spray matures far better over time. The vanilla and synthetic musk definitely come forward more over the first 30 minutes and create a sweet, warming fragrance that invites short bursts of scent for a good 2-3 hours.

Ultimately, Snow Fairy Body Spray was never going to be a product that I would be overly excited about. However, the fragrance has definitely ignited an interest in the scent family again, and I have been enjoying the shower gel and Body Conditioner alongside this as a result of the spray. Given the pattern of body sprays that have been created so far, it's only a matter of time before Honey I Washed The Kids and The Comforter are created, I'm sure.
