Lush New Items and Valentine's Day Haul

Oh boy, it's almost been a month since my last post. I have lots of stuff to share and they are coming up! I have some reviews. I have to post my February use-it-ups. And here is my Lush haul from the UK:


Into Thin Air Massage Bar - This looks like Wiccy but it smells like old formula Therapy! It contains mung (green) beans instead of red. For any of you guys missing the old Therapy, get this! I haven't used it yet so I can't tell you whether it works the same though.

Mint Julips Lip Scrub - New item! I thought this scrub was going to be a bit watery but rather it's like packed sugar. When I first opened the jar to smell it, I didn't really like it because it smelled kind of artificial. After I used it though, the mint chocolate scent came out and it made my lips so soft. The directions say that you can eat it after scrubbing, but when I did this I already brushed my teeth so I just rinsed it off. Even if I hadn't brushed my teeth, I'm a bit disgusted by the idea of eating my dead skin cells. Think about scrubbing your body with a sugar scrub and then licking it clean xD

Magic Mushroom Bubble Bar - This is the Valentine's day limited edition item. It is so darn cute! When it arrived at my door, it came in two pieces: the stem and the hat. The top part is supposed to smell like Yummy Yummy Yummy and the stem is supposed to smell like vanilla. I can't wait to use this.

Happy Blooming Bath Melt - This is one of the new items, only available right now from the UK. Sometimes it smells like cherry candy and other times it smells like nail polish. This melt is good for 3 baths. Yay for a new melt (finally)!

Schnuggle - This is the 2nd bar I ordered because I really like how it feels. It's not too oily like the regular massage bars and it leaves my skin soft when I wake up in the morning. The first few times it put me to sleep with ease, but I'm not sure about now.

Love Soap - Another Valentine's Day item. I heard that last year's version smelled like apple, and I was really excited to try it this year until I heard that this year is Sex Bomb scented. There's nothing wrong with the Sex Bomb scent, I just wanted to try something different. I actually thought the whole soap was covered in glitter, but it's only the top.

Ex-factor Bath Bomb - Oh Em Gee, this smells sooo good. This smells like Butterball but it doesn't have the cocoa butter bits. This is called the ex-factor and shaped like a person because you're supposed to imagine that it's your ex and then dunk its head into the water. Hah! Take that!

I also got samples of:
Creme Anglaise - This is also a new item. It's a lotion that comes in a black pot. It's supposed to be very luxurious and even thicker than Sympathy for the Skin. It's supposed to smell like a vanilla creme dessert, but when I sniffed it I didn't think it smelled too good. It smells kind of weird. It did make my hands soft though, but which Lush moisturizer doesn't?

Temptation Soap - This is a retro soap. It's supposed to smell like apples, but it doesn't smell like apples. It smells a bit weird too, kind of floral, kind of fruity. Too perfumy. Maybe it'll smell better once I use it.

Cosmic Dreamcatcher - First time getting a sample of a Massage Bar! Yay for Lush UK! It's irange and the chunk they gave me looks like cheddar cheese! It smells kind of medicinal and incensey. I'm not so sure if I like it.

Ooh and it looks like I got 2 new followers since the last time I checked. Thanks guy for subscribing!
