Hey everyone!
Welcome to a brand new blog post! The lovely people at Lush have sent me an amazing box of Shaun The Sheep X Lush goodies and I thought that today I would talk to you all about them.
The Shaun The Sheep X Lush Range is available on the Lush App, website and in stores.
Shaun The Sheep and Lush have a lot in common. They both turn 30 this year! Shaun made his first appearance in Wallace & Gromit : A Close Suave in 1995 and Lush started creating their iconic cosmetic products in 1996. Lush make their beauty products by hand and Aardman make their characters such as Shaun, Timmy and many more by hand too!
Shaun The Sheep’s TV series played a big part in my childhood as I came home from school to see what antics Shaun. Timmy and the rest of the gang had gotten up to.
Shaun The Sheep Bath Bomb
Shaun has appeared to make your bath time a real adventure!
Ingredients:
Sodium Bicarbonate, Citric Acid, Alcohol Denat., Rose Absolute, Orange Flower Absolute, Lemongrass Oil, Jasmine Absolute, Water (Aqua), Coconut Milk Powder, Titanium Dioxide, Corn Protein, Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Cornstarch, Dipropylene Glycol, Sodium Coco Sulfate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Tin Oxide, Cinnamyl Alcohol, Limonene, Perfume, Colour 77499, Colour 47005, Colour 42090:2, Colour 19140:1, Colour 42090.
Shaun is here to make baath time a delight! Not only does he look adorable but this bath bomb also contains Coconut Milk Powder, Corn Protein and Extra Virgin Olive Oil which helps to make your skin feel as soft as Shaun does!
This bath bomb also contains a plethora of beautiful floral oils such as Rose Absolute, Orange Flower Absolute and Jasmine Absolute which blend together to create a soft powdery scent whilst the Lemongrass helps to make everything sing and add a zesty pop of brightness to the bath bomb. This bath bomb shares the same scent as the retro Summer Blues Bath Bomb from Lush! To me, the scent of Shaun reminds me of slightly powdery yet uplifting cotton which feels a bit fitting with this range! If you’re a fan of scents that remind you of Spring or love anything floral then you will definitely love this! I also think any combination of products from this range would make a beautiful gift!
Sleepy Timmy Bubble Bar
Timmy is here to help you settle down after a day of mischief!
Ingredients:
Sodium Bicarbonate, Cream of Tartar, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Lauryl Betaine, Lavender Oil, Chamomile Oil, Lavender Absolute, Neroli Oil, Cornstarch, Glycerine, Water (Aqua), Tragacanth Gum, Titanium Dioxide, Alcohol Denat., Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Tin Oxide, Limonene, Linalool, Perfume, Colour 77499.
This bubble bar contains Lavender Oil, Lavender Absolute, Chamomile Oil and Neroli Oil. This blend of oils creates an absolutely superb soothing scent! Timmy shares the same scent as Deep Sleep from Lush and this specific blend is known to help calm and soothe so you can sleep easier (which trust me I need at the moment). Not only that but Sleepy Timmy also creates black rainbow glittery waters when you use him in the tub. First of all, black rainbow glittery baths are the most me thing that I have ever heard and who doesn’t love the sound of this? I feel like the black rainbow glittery water will help to represent the night sky whilst you relax before going to bed which I love the sound of. As Timmy shares the scent of Deep Sleep, you could use the Deep Sleep Massage Bar afterwards to truly settle down before bed due the Magnesium that’s in the Massage Bar.
I know some of you may be asking what is the difference between Sleepy and Deep Sleep. Sleepy contains Lavender, Ylang Ylang and Tonka whereas Deep Sleep contains Lavender, Chamomile and Neroli. In my opinion, Sleepy is more of a creamy malty Lavender scent (a bit like what Ovaltine is meant to do in terms of relaxing you before bed but in bath form) whilst Deep Sleep has a more herbal Lavender scent to it.
This would make an amazing bath time treat for anyone who needs some relaxation in their life!
Naughty Pigs Shower Jelly
Ingredients:
Glycerine, Fresh Carrot Infusion, Propylene Glycol, Water, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Coco Sulfate, Carrageenan Extract, Perfume, Sand, Titanium Dioxide, Geranium Oil, Grapefruit Oil, West Timor Sandalwood Oil, Benzyl Salicylate, Citral, Citronellol, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool, Colour 45410:
This Shower Jelly contains three cute yet naughty pigs that can be used to help you clean after a day of adventure! These pigs contain a plethora of ingredients such as Sand which can be used as a light body exfoliant to help truly get dirt and grime off your body. I tried the sand when I received this box of goodies and honestly I love it you like a light exfoliant such as the Sugar Scrubs from Lush then you will love how the Sand exfoliates your skin! These pigs contain Geranium Oil, Grapefruit Oil and West Timor Sandalwood Oil which combine to create a very zingy fruity scent that is truly to die for. Naughty Pigs Shower Jelly share the same scent as the Muddy Carrots Soap from Lush. The best way that would describe this scent is to imagine picking Grapefruits off a tree whilst being able to smell the scents of the other trees and plants surrounding you in the farm bottled up into a Shower Jelly.
If you love cute shaped Shower Jellies or anything that has a fruity scent that reminds you of bright and warm days in the sun then I think that you will adore this!
Bitzer Body Balm
Bitzer is here to help guide your skin into feeling soft and supple!
Ingredients:
Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter, Cupuaçu Butter, Illipe Butter, Organic Shea Butter, Fair Trade Organic Mango Butter, Apricot Kernel Oil, Perfume, Fresh Carrot Juice, Cornstarch, Bergamot Oil, Lime Oil, Violet Leaf Absolute, Gardenia Extract, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Citral, Limonene, Linalool.
This Body Balm will definitely become your new best friend! This body balm contains a plethora of beautiful butters which will help to nourish your skin such as Fair Trade Organic Cocoa Butter, Cupuaçu Butter, Illipe Butter and Shea Butter. Did you know that Cupuaçu Butter melts at a lower temperature that is nearer to your skins temperature which means that when you glide this on your skin it will only take mere moments for this beautiful body balm to melt on your skin and help to make your skin soft and supple. This Body Balm also contains Bergamot Oil, Lime Oil and Violet Leaf Absolute which blend together to create a truly fruity scent that reminds me of freshly picking berries off a shrub during the height of Summer. If you’re a fan of Lush then you may know the scent of Bitzer via the What’s Up Doc? Shower Gel from a couple of years ago or from the Cheep Cheep Bath Bomb.
If you’re someone who has loved any of the Body Balms from the other collabs such as the Bee Body Bapm from the Bridgerton collab then I think that you will adore this! I also think that this would be a perfect product to pair with the new Basma Body Scrub or Salam Shower Gel that are a part of the new Eid Range from Lush.
Troublesome Tractor Soap
This Soap will help you get out of those messy scrapes!
Ingredients;
Rapeseed Oil; Coconut Oil, Water (Aqua), Glycerine, Propylene Glycol, Coffee Infusion, Perfume, Clary Sage Oil, Eucalyptus Oil, Geranium Oil, Lemon Myrtle Oil, Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, Titanium Dioxide, Charcoal powder, Sodium Chloride, Citric Acid, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Bicarbonate, EDTA, Tetrasodium Etidronate, Citral, Citronellol, Geraniol, Limonene, Linalool, Colour 42090.
If you’re spending all your time on a farm like Shaun and his buddies then you’d need a soap to help you wash off all the muck of the day and that’s exactly what Lush have done with this Troublesome Tractor Soap.
This soap contains exfoliating wheels that are packed full of Coffee and Charcoal which will help to exfoliate dead skin and will give you a boost to help you get on with your day whilst the rest of the Soap contains a refreshing blend of Clary Sage, Eucalyptus Oil and Lemon Myrtle Oil which combine to create a light yet zingy scent that will make you want to smell your hands all day!
I am a bit dubious when it comes to Eucalyptus scents as my nose tend to get irritated easily if I can smell it in strong doses but I really enjoy it in this soap. It helps to add a sort of watery freshness which compliments the Lemon Myrtle beautifully.
If you like fresh and zingy scents then I think that you will like this Soap. In a way this soap reminds me of being the cousin of the Outback Mate Soap at Lush so if you love that scent family but want to try something a touch different then I urge you to try this cute Soap.
Mossy Bottom Body Spray
One spray and you’ll be at Mossy Bottom Farm having lots of fun.
Ingredients:
Organic Alcohol Denat.,Water, Perfume, Glycerine, Linalool, West Timor Sandalwood Oil, Bergamot Oil, Neroli Oil, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Amyl Cinnamal, Benzyl Alcohol, Benzyl Benzoate, Benzyl Salicylate, Citral, Citronellol, Coumarin, Eugenol, Farnesol, Geraniol, Isoeugenol, Limonene.
We all need a fragrance for when we’re spending all day out and about having fun and Lush have come to the rescue. Not only have Lush created a Body Spray that will compliment you when you’re getting up to all sorts but they have created a Body Spray that will make you feel like you’re a part of the Shaun The Sheep franchise having adventures with Shaun and the rest of the gang.
(Just to clarify before I talk about Mossy Bottom. The rest of the Shaun The Sheep was kindly sent to me by Lush which I am super thankful for as I love this collaboration range but the Body Spray was not sent to me as part of the gifted items and was purchased by myself).
This body spray contains West Timor Sandalwood Oil, Bergamot Oil and Neroli Oil. This combination of ingredients creates a fragrance that reminds me of the height of Spring enjoying picnics in the garden whilst England is sunny for two days before it rains for the rest of Spring. This combination of oils creates a fresh green scent that packs a punch. If you have smelt the Grass Shower Gel or Grass Perfume from Lush and adore it then you may be happy to hear that Mossy Bottom shares the same scent.
I know that for some, this is a love or loathe fragrance but it fits very well into the Shaun the Sheep theme of the range as one spray of this and you will feel that you’re on the farm with Shaun and the gang having the time of your life!
I’ve worn this a couple of times and honestly I love it. I am super dubious when it comes to green scents. I either love or loathe them but I adore this one. The fragrance is very much a green grassy scent but it has a bit of dimension to it which stops it from being one note. There’s a touch of citrus in there from the Bergamot and a touch of creamy floral from the Neroli which just makes it a fragrance that you keep sniffing. I have sprayed this a couple of times as I have mentioned above and it has lasted all day on me to the point that I’ve been out all day and gotten the train home and wondered if anyone else on the train had just sprayed it and then I realise it’s me.
If you’re a fan of scents from Lush such as Guardians Of The Forest or Fresh As then I think you should give Mossy Bottom a sniff as you may enjoy it.
