LUSH’S FROST FAIR IS IN TOWN

BUT YOU NEED TO BE QUICK … BEFORE THE BIG THAW!!

 

In England, all of our traditional Christmas imagery comes from a bygone age of snow-covered buildings, excited children ice-skating on lakes and puffed out robins on icy shrubbery.  These scenes depict how England used to be in the olden days, when the severity of the climate meant it was cold enough to actually freeze the Thames allowing people to skate on the river, parade on the frozen waters and hold festivals and fairs on them – known as Frost Fairs.

 

Today, it’s unimaginable that the Thames would freeze solid enough to enable us to do all of these things and that’s partly because of the effects of climate change.  Although we may occasionally still get really cold winters like the last one in the UK, we have seen a global warming trend, with 2009 being the 5th warmest year on record and 2010 set to be the warmest.

With this in mind we wanted to create a range of festive products in homage to those days before climate change took hold and you could go to a Frost Fair on the river.  Introducing the Lush Frost Fair – with a whole host of innovative wares inspired by different traditions from around the world.  You might recognize some, you might not – some are the epitome of Christmas, some aren’t.  But one thing is for sure; each and every one will be made with the highest quality ingredients, not tested on animals and packaging kept to a minimum … these things are Lush traditions!

 

THE WEIRD & THE WONDERFUL …

 

Snow Fairy tinted lip balm… Snow Fairies are extremely popular at Lush, they visit our shops every year and makes thousands of Christmas wishes come true.  This year we thought we’d try to make the Snow Fairies wishes come true with this new tinted lip balm containing all the ingredients we thought a Snow Fairy would like to keep her pout pink, soft and deliciously sugary.   Containing softening murumuru butter and cupuacu butter, along with dried raspberries, sherbet and icing sugar … lips will be left soft, smooth and a pretty pink.  Our tinted lip balms can also be used as a cheek highlighter – giving all Snow Fairies their pretty, rosy hue.  Vegan

 

Sugar Plum Fairy shower scrub … a fantastic scrub to keep Sugar Plum Fairies looking their very best.  Containing fairtrade sugar to scrub away the excesses of the season and to help reduce the appearance of cellulite on thighs.  The fragrance is a blend of sultry jasmine and ylang ylang, along with plum kernal oil.  Use this in the shower and be confident in donning your tutu and pirouetting around the Christmas tree!  Vegan

 lush-sugar-plum-fairy.jpg

THE FOOD OF THE FAIR …

 Candy Cane bubble bar … no Fair is without candy canes and this is our pink and white stripped, candy scented bubble bar that’s reminiscent of the traditional festive sweetie.  Crumble under running water for masses of comforting vanilla scented bubbles – it’s a great calorie-free alternative!  Vegan

 

Lil’ Lush Pud bath ballistic  a little helping of Christmas Pud heralds the arrival of this wonderful time of year.  Pop this classic Lush product into your bath and allow the soothing aloe vera to soften and hydrate dry winter skin.  There’s also a dash of clove powder to ward off the cold and a handful of lemon peel to boost sluggish circulation.  Fragranced with the best-selling Snowcake marzipan-like scent, it’s a yummy festive soak!  Vegetarian

 

Glögg shower gel … the traditional Glögg is a spicy, warming, fruity mulled drink for keeping you nice and toasty whilst wondering around the delights of the Fair.  The Lush version is a shower gel with a similar warming fragrance to spice up your shower time!  Containing fresh orange and lemon juices, red wine, brandy, cinnamon and clove, this spicy wash will warm the cockles, helping to improve circulation and fend off the cold.  Vegan

 

Iced Wine shower jelly … a Canadian winter beverage, Iced Wine is made by picking frost-bitten grapes.  It has a very strong but fruity flavour, which we’ve used in this shower jelly.  Containing grapefruit oil and bergamot for a refreshing zinginess, along with buchu oil to add a touch of the tropical.  Freeze or chill it for an invigorating wash to wake you up on cold winter mornings.  Vegetarian

 lush-iced-wine.jpg

 

 

Lip Dip lip scrub … a sugary sweet, lemon sherbet lip scrub that smoothes winter lips and leaves them tasting absolutely delicious.  Not only does it taste incredible, it’s also a winter must have – containing scrubby sherbet and Fairtrade sugar to exfoliate away any dry, flakey skin, along with softening almond oil to nourish and keep Christmas kisses soft.  Vegan

 

Once you’ve exfoliated lips with Lip Dip, smother them with some Maple Taffy lip balm and wait for the stampede under the mistletoe!  Inspired by the Canadian festive tradition of rolling sticky, gooey maple sap in snow and making a sweet lolly treat, this lip balm is made of 20% maple syrup for that delicious flavour.  There’s also a blend of super moisturising butters like illipe butter, shea butter and carnauba wax, as well as glycerine, to really soften and lock in moisture.   Vegan

 

Angel’s Delight soap  if you’re a fan of the popular Angel’s Delight dessert then you’ll love this classic Lush soap.  A yummy pink soap, adorned with stars, moons and all things glittery – tangerine oil, orange oil and gardenia oil provide the sweet, jelly baby fragrance and also really work to cleanse, refresh and detox the skin.  Vegan

 lush-angels-delight.jpg

Snowcake soap … a Lush classic and best seller, a slice of Snowcake smells just like the irresistible almond marzipan on the Christmas cake.  Lather up with gorgeous rose absolute, that soothes dry and stressed skin, and berry scented cassie absolute.  This year’s is decorated with Norwegian cookie cutter designs.   Vegan

 lush-snowcake.jpg

WINTER WONDERS …

 

Snow Globe soap  imagine yourself inside a snow globe – snow fluttering all around and a feeling of being refreshed, revitalized and uplifted.  Well, this soap will make you feel all of the above, with a citrusy lemon myrtle, grapefruit and lemongrass blend that will bluster your senses and wake you up on cold winter mornings.  The whole soap is in the shape of a snow globe, with white circles to imitate the snowflakes.  A beautiful alternative to all the traditional festive offerings.  Vegan

 lush-snowglobe.jpg

Winter Bath ballistic … a lovely warming bath ballistic to keep you happy and healthy during the cold winter months, it contains lots of ginger oil and absolute, clove bud and lemongrass to stimulate the senses and get the circulation going.  Bathing in a nice hot bath before bedtime is the perfect way to keep you nice and toasty throughout the night, but hot water can also be drying on the skin.  So Winter Bath has shavings of cocoa butter and soya milk powder to help soften and nourish the skin at the same time.  Vegan

lush-winter-bath.jpg 

TRADITIONAL ENGLISH OFFERINGS …

 

Mandarin’s Tea Party soap  for some, it’s a very English tradition to give children a Rupert Bear annual at Christmas.  Open pretty much any Rupert annual and you’ll be whisked away with Rupert and chums to faraway lands for exotic adventures, tea parties and a touch of oriental magic.  In the 1969 annual Rupert attends a Mandarin Tea Party, which is the inspiration for this spicy, fruity, refreshing soap.  There’s obviously a lot of mandarin oil in this one, but there’s also fresh orange juice, crystallized ginger and dried orange slices for a real warming, exotic, spicy touch.  The fragrance is a version of the beautiful new Orange Blossom perfume, with a touch of neroli to lift your mood and keep your spirits up in the bleak mid-winter.  Vegan

 

Once a Year massage bar  Christmas (or Santa) comes around only once a year, but here at Lush we want to encourage people to massage their loved ones more than this so this is our hint to those stingy ‘once a year’ masseurs!  This massage bar is pink, like Santa’s cheeks and has his big bushy white moustache on top.   The fragrance is a mixture of all the things people usually leave out for Santa on Christmas Eve, so we called it Santa’s Snack!  We included oranges, tangerines, hazelnut oil, almond essential oil, cognac oil and brandy.  Warm the bar between hands and smooth the super-softening cocoa butter and shea butter over skin.  Vegan

 

Satsumo Santa bath ballistic … traditionally children would wake up to find a satsuma in their stocking on Christmas Morning, so this is the perfect alternative!  A zingy, fruity bath treat shaped like Santa and scented with oranges.  Mandarin oil, bergamot oil and orange blossom absolute are toning for the skin and uplifting for the mind, helping to banish the winter blues and induce feelings of goodwill to all men.  Vegan

 lush-satsumo-santa-single.jpg

So White bath ballistic… a pure white ballistic with the scent of apples to epitomise a classic children’s tale.  A favourite from last year, this one has shavings of bubble bar in as well, to create a snowy, frothy blanket of white bubbles.  Bergamot oil and neroli oil provide the fruity fragrance, but both also act as uplifting confidence boosters, to clear the mind of anxious thoughts and help give mental clarity.  Perfect for de-stressing over the festive season and over worries of who is the fairest of them all!  There’s also rose absolute, another oil that’s balancing on the emotions, but also a good tonic for mature skin, helping to improve its general appearance.  Vegan

 

Cinders bath ballistic … this is one ball you won’t want to miss out on, a fire-cracker of a bath treat inspired by the fairytale of Cinderella, who slept by the fireplace and got covered in cinders.  Drop into a pre-run bath and listen as the popping candy fizzles and crackles just like a real fire.  Scented with almonds and cherries for a festive marzipan aroma, there’s also almond essential oil to accentuate the scent.  Sweet orange oil lifts the spirits and adds some cheer to dark, winter days.  There’s also a touch of cinnamon leaf oil to warm the body, just as if you were by a real fire.  Vegan

 

Christmas Eve bubble bar … whatever you do on Christmas Eve, make soaking in the tub with this bubbly, relaxing treat one of your traditions.  Crumble under running water and lie back amongst the masses of jasmine and ylang ylang scented bubbles.  Both are relaxing and calming – but also aphrodisiacs, so bathing with this one could be the start of other, more exciting Christmas Eve traditions!  There’s also a touch of Irish moss powder to soften the skin and make the water silky.  The water will be turned the majestic deep blue of the night sky and the bubbles float atop like clouds – you can just imagine Santa’s sleigh making it’s way across!  Perfect to help escape from the seasonal stresses and calm anxious or worried minds enough for a good nights sleep.  Vegan
