I have 7 LUSH Cosmetics Holiday 2013 items, and I’ll tell you right now, my son has already claimed 2 of the items.

Bombardino

Item #1 that my son snatched out of my hands as soon as he saw it.  Bombardino Bath Bomb!  This cute little guy has a pleasant lemon cheesecake scent that isn’t too sweet and really is a unisex scent.  Bombardino contains bits of cocoa butter as well as soy milk powder to soften up your dry winter skin!

The Christmas Penguin

And item #2 my son already claimed – The Christmas Penguin!  He already told me he needs more – so I will definitely be grabbing a few more to fill his stocking up with!  The Christmas Penguin is an adorable bubble bar inspired by the smallest penguins in the world, which are found on Philip Island in Australia.  The scent of this little guy may be very familiar as well – it smells of orange flower and bergamot which is also the scent of The Olive Branch Shower Gel by LUSH (this is my boyfriend’s go-to shower gel)!

The Christmas Penguin Price: $7.45

Ingredients: Sodium Bicarbonate , Cream of Tartar (Potassium bitartrate) , Sodium Laureth Sulfate , Lauryl Betaine ,Cornflour (Zea mays) , Fragrance , Bergamot Oil (Citrus Aurantium bergamia) , Sicilian Lemon Oil (Citrus limonum) , Orange Flower Absolute (Citrus Aurantium amara) , Sicilian Mandarin Oil (Citrus Nobilis) , Water (Aqua) , Citric Acid , Glyceryl Stearate , PVP ,Hydroxyethylcellulose , Titanium Dioxide , *Limonene ,*Linalool , Hydroxycitronellal , Butylphenyl Methylpropional , FD&C Blue No. 1 , FD&C Green No. 3, FD&C Yellow No. 5 , Aluminium Lake , Iron Oxides ,FD&C Red No. 40 , Cola Pip (Sugar, Glucose, Cirtic Acid, Flavor (Aroma), FD&C Red 40)

Ponche Shower Gel

I need to run out and buy a full size bottle of Ponche ASAP before it goes away!  This is definitely a unisex scented shower gel.  Ponche is inspired by traditional Mexican punch, this sunset-orange cocktail combines fresh, fruity buchu oil with the warm, spicy aroma of plum and cinnamon infusion. Freshly squeezed orange juice brightens the skin and a splash of tequila gets the party started.  You can’t really smell the tequila in it, but the orange scent is just divine!  It isn’t a super strong citrus scent but it doesn’t smell synthetic either.  Definitely a shower gel Nick and I need to stock up on!

Price for Ponche Shower Gel: $9.95 – $29.95 (size shown is a 3.3 fl oz bottle for $9.95)

Indgredients: Water (Aqua) , Plum Infusion (Prunus Domestica) ,Cinnamon Stick Infusion (Cinnamomum cassia) ,Sodium Laureth Sulfate , Sodium Cocoamphoacetate ,Fresh Organic Orange Juice (Citrus Aurantium dulcis) ,Lauryl Betaine , Propylene Glycol , Fragrance , Lactic Acid , Davana Oil (Artemisia pallens) , Buchu Oil (Barosma betulina) , Petigrain Oil (Citrus Amara) ,Tequila , Eugenol , Geraniol , *Linalool , *Limonene ,D&C Orange No. 4 , Methylparaben

Rose Jam Shower Gel

Another lovely shower gel from LUSH and another I need a backup of.  I am certainly not a rose scent lover, usually because it’s too strong for me.  Rose Jam is not like that.  The rose scent in this bottle smells more like a real rose garden and is softened with vanilla and a touch of lemon.  Definitely not a ‘grandma’ scent!  I also used it as a shampoo yesterday and I had a light touch of rose scent in my hair for HOURS.  Give it a try!  Also – if you like the scent of Rose Jam bubbleroon and Ro’s Argan body conditioner, then you will fall in love with Rose Jam Shower Gel as well!

Price for Rose Jam Shower Gel: $10.95-$29.95 (bottle shown is a 3.3 fl oz bottle for $10.95)

Ingredients: Water (Aqua) , Vanilla Pod Infusion (Vanilla planifolia) ,Cypress Leaf Infusion (Cupressus sempervirens) ,Sodium Lauryl Sulfate , Sodium Cocoamphoacetate ,Lauryl Betaine , Propylene Glycol , Fragrance , Goji Berry Juice (Lycium barbarum) , Lactic Acid , Argan Oil (Argania spinosa) , Organic Rose Absolute (Rosa Damascena) , Rose Oil (Rosa damascena) , Egyptian Geranium Oil (Pelargonium graveolens) , Sicilian Lemon Oil (Citrus limonum) , Coumarin , Citronellol ,Geraniol , *Limonene , D&C Red No. 33 ,Methylparaben

Sandy Santa Body Butter

Sandy Santa is added to the LUSH line of body butters!  Sandy Santa contains coconut oil, murumuru and Shea butters so he leaves skin feeling oh-so-soft and moisturized as well as sand and sugar that buffs and polishes dull winter skin to reveal a bright, toned complexion.  Sandy Santa contains orange, rose and sandalwood oils for a divine scent as well!

Celebrate Hand and Body Lotion

Celebrate Hand and Body Lotion is probably now my favorite LUSH lotion scent now.  It’s thick, creamy and extremely moisturizing (which I need this time of year!).  You only need a little bit of this stuff as well, a little goes a LONG way!  Celebrate smells like Mimosas too (yum!) very fruity and fresh.  I’ve been using Celebrate right after using Ponche Shower Gel… they mix perfectly.  If you liked Golden Wonder Bath Bomb, this is the same scent.  Best part?  This lotion is preservative free!

Price for Celebrate Hand and Body Lotion: $29.95

Santa Baby Lip Tint

Santa Baby Lip Tint gives your lips a little moisture and a great pop of color!  Santa Baby Lip Tint contains a rich base of Fair Trade Shea butter and cocoa butters as well as vitamin-rich carrot oil to soften and hydrate your lips in the chilly winter months!  Santa Baby Lip Tint also smells like Cherry Cola!  LOVE IT!  This lip tint is buildable, but if you only want a subtle wash of color, you can apply it lightly, but if you want a bold dose of red on your pucker, go ahead and layer it on a bit!  To keep your lips looking their best this Holiday season, use a little Santa’s Lip Scrub to exfoliate your lips, then a little layer of Ultra Balm (if you like to sheer out your tint) and then a bit of Santa Baby Lip Tint!

Here is a closeup of me wearing it the way I LOVE!  Just a nice wash of color:

Additional Information

There are so many more LUSH Holiday items I need to pick up!  I’ll be sure to share my haul with all of you once I run down to the Emeryville shop!

You can find all of these products on the LUSH website, or use the Shop Locator to find a store nearest to you!  Remember – all of these items are limited edition  – so get em while you can!

LUSH sells most of their products unpackaged in order to cut down on waste.  Most products in store will be naked in store (no wrapping!).  LUSH packages some products (like Celebrate Hand and Body Lotion) in a black container.  If you empty 5 of their black containers and bring them back into any LUSH shop – you get a free Fresh Face Mask as a gift!

Do you have a LUSH favorite for the Holidays? Any stocking stuffers you want to pick up?  I’d love to hear about it!
