This year, Pam took charge and organized everything – from the outfit, the pegs, the layout, the furniture, the venue, the photographer, making sure we were all made up.  Her first email 🙂

Have Some Fun this Christmas with Lush

By | Christmas, What's New at Rustan's | No Comments

LUSH FRESH HANDMADE COSMETICS

 

HAVE SOME FUN THIS CHRISTMAS

WITH LUSH FRESH HANDMADE COSMETICS!

set-2.jpg 

This year LUSH Fresh Handmade Cosmetics has really been celebrating the fun of Christmas! These new festive, limited edition products really conjure up the thrill and excitement of Christmastime – there’s all the traditional LUSH offerings, along with many new inventions to keep you looking, smelling and feeling your very best right into the New Year!

 

Soap

Lush has been manufacturing luxury handmade soaps since the mid 1980s. In a deliberate move away from truly mass commercial, Lush has perfected the technique of making solid soap by hand using the “pouring” method. In 2007 Mo Constantine OBE helped to invent a palm oil free soap base – so not only are Lush soaps not made with any animal fats, they also help to save the rain forests. This base is available for anyone who would like to use it.

 

NEW!

north-pole-soap.jpg

 

North Pole! (Php 225 for 100g)!

A pink and white pole made of soap, with a pepper-minty aroma for an icy blast straight from the arctic! The different coloured sections are fragranced slightly differently – the pink bit has the delicious aroma of cocoa absolute and invigorating peppermint (also good for stimulating the skin and getting the circulation going in cold winter months); while the white section has more calming, relaxing qualities with cedar wood and cypress oils. Both oils are also toning on the skin. Make sure you get a chunk of each! Vegan

 

mr-punch-soap.jpg

 

 

Mr. Punch! (Php 295 for 100g)!

This soap certainly packs a punch with a concoction of fruity essential oils to help fend off the winter cold – there’s cleansing juniperberry oil, blackcurrant absolute, uplifting lime oil and softening coconut oil … there’s even a dash of gin in there to help tone the skin, well it does look a bit like a punch bowl after all, there’s whole bits of fruit in there and everything! Vegan

 

 

LUSH CLASSICS

angels-delight.jpg

Angel’s Delight (Php 225 for 100g)

This annual favourite is back with the same jelly baby scent that you know and love! Angel’s will swoon for all the pink glittery stars and moons that are embedded in this soap and it’s the tangerine and orange oils, along with blackcurrant that give it its yummy fragrance. These oils also really work to cleanse, refresh and detox the skin. Vegan!

snowcake-soap.jpg

Snowcake (Php 245 for 100g)

A Lush classic and bestseller, a slice of Snowcake smells just like the irresistible almond marzipan on the Christmas cake. Lather up with gorgeous rose absolute, that soothes dry, cracked winter skin, and berry scented cassie absolute. Your skin will be left softened and beautifully scented. Vegan!

snow-globe-soap.jpg

 

Snow Globe (Php 195 for 100g)

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. Vegan

northern-light-soap.jpg

Northern Lights (Php 275 for 100g)

A bright, beautiful soap reminiscent of the spectacular Northern Lights. This one is made with our inventive technique of pouring soap that enables a colourful swirly effect throughout the soap. Vibrant reds, greens and yellows all flurry together, with the fresh scent of pine oil, cypress oil and lime oil. You could almost be standing in a Finnish forest, breathing in the scent of the woodland and the sights of the Northern Lights! Pine and cypress oils are calming for the mind, while lime oil works well on congested skin and cellulite. A good one to shower with after a late night, it will wake you up whilst soothing the emotions if you’re feeling a little delicate. Vegan

 

Bath Ballistics

Invented by Mo Constantine OBE (and Olympic torch bearer!) in 1987. The Bath Ballistic is often imitated, but none compare to the original. Still a Lush best seller – with A-list fans including Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, Julia Roberts, Kylie Minogue, Helena Christensen and Sarah Jessica Parker – each one is formulated with the finest ingredients and essential oils to cleanse both the mind and body. Simply drop into a ready run, warm bath and watch as it fizzes around the tub with abandonment, emitting its goodness into the water.

 

NEW!

father-christmas.jpg

 


Father Christmas (Php 275) drop this festive little fellow into your bathtub and marvel as he fizzes around turning the water from bright red to vivid green (returning Santa to his traditional colours!) and filling your tub with a zingy, fruity, uplifting fragrance of mandarin oil, bergamot oil and orange blossom absolute. Not only are these oils stimulating for the mind, but they’re also toning for the skin, helping to banish the winter blues and induce feelings of goodwill to all men. Vegan

crackersnap.jpg

Crackersnap (Php 425) it’s a cracker! It even has a party hat, a joke and a little gift inside … along with some popping candy for the crackle and pop! There’s 3 baths in this one product. Run a nice warm bath, hop in, then either pull your cracker or drop the whole thing in the tub – watch as it turns your water bright green, then yellow and breathe in the refreshing aroma of lemongrass, bergamot and rosewood. This blend of oils will help awaken the senses, especially good for the morning after the party before, and rosewood is particularly good for soothing dry winter skin. Make sure you put on your party hat, tell yourself the joke and fish out your gift of a little crocodile made out of reusable bubble bar for a future bath … adds a little snap to the crackle and pop! Vegan

party-popper.jpg

 


Party Popper (Php 275) a celebratory bath ballistic that shoots around the bathtub, with popping candy crackling as it goes, blasting out pink and blue trails of colour and some special soap paper, made from soap flakes and fresh honeydew melon. A new amazing Lush invention, patent applied for. Once the bath bomb has fizzed away you can use the remaining soap paper to wash yourself with or smooth into your skin. The fragrance is an uplifting and toning blend of bergamot and tangerine oils, along with healing rose oil. It’s reminiscent of Bucks Fizz and lifts the spirits and warms the body. Vegan

 


Patent applied for invention for our soap paper … it really is made from soap flakes and fresh

honeydew melon!

so-white.jpg

So White (Php 245) throw this white snowball-esque ballistic against the side of the

Bath tub and marvel as it explodes into a frothy mass of skin softening foam, with a pink centre. This is another of our double-layered ballistics. The outer shell is thinner and easy to break. This reveals the soft centre, which dissolves and creates a carpet of pink fluffy bubbles across the top of the water. Still with the same appley scent, snuggle under the blanket of foamy bubbles and relax as the bergamot and neroli oils uplift the mind and the beautiful rose absolute tones the skin. Vegan

 

 


LUSH CLASSICS

cinders.jpg

 


Cinders bath ballistic (Php 195) … drop a Cinders into the tub for that sitting in front of a crackling fire feeling. Made with warming cinnamon leaf oil and sweet orange oil to lift the spirits, the scent is of almonds and cherries for a festive marzipan aroma. Popping candy tops it all off, to emulate that comforting sound of a crackling open fire. Vegan!

golden-wonder.jpg

 


Golden Wonder bath ballistic (Php 274) … you are sure to ‘wonder’ what’s inside this golden present full of bath time surprises! Pick up this gift shaped ballistic, give it a shake and guess what’s inside. Then drop in a warm bath and golden stars will burst out, dissolving in the water before your very eyes. Inside you will find a wonderful surprise, as the water turns a vibrant blue! Scented with a champagne-like perfume made from sweet orange oil, cognac oil and lime oil to uplift the spirits and really put you in a festive party mood. Two layer bath ballistic –patent pending. Vegan

 


Bubble Bars

Invented by Helen Ambrosen in 1998. She wanted to recreate film star bubble baths for, at this time, the art of the bubble bath was dying. However, she also wanted to be able to eradicate the packaging from bubble bath. So, Helen created a simple base of tartar and sodium bicarbonate, to which all sorts of essential oils and fresh ingredients are added to create the solid bubble bar slices we know and love. This enabled us to cut out preservatives too. To use, simply crumble under warm running water to create masses and masses luxurious, softening bubbles. The bubble bath is back and you can have towers of foam if you want to! Patented.

 

LUSH CLASSICS

candy-mountain.jpg

Candy Mountain (Php 195) … 2012 sees this popular candy scented bubble bar with a pink and green look. Crumble under running water for masses of comforting, skin softening vanilla scented bubbles – it’s a hug in a tub and a great calorie-free alternative for the festive candy canes! Vegan

christmas-eve.jpg

 


Christmas Eve (Php 225) 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 calming jasmine and ylang ylang scented bubbles. Perfect to help calm excited minds enough to get a good night sleep. There’s also some Irish moss powder (a type of seaweed) in there to soften the skin and make the water silky. Vegan

 

Bubble Bar Wands

Helen Ambrosen invented the re-usable bubble bar itself in 2008, for one of our SPA treatments. A fantastic idea from the creative team was to then put this formula on a stick, creating these fantastic bubble bar wands. They are made from multi-use bubble bar mixture, which means you can swish them around in numerous baths to create skin softening bubbles, then place on the edge to harden ready for next time. Mo Constantine OBE proceeded to invent the first Lush household product from this idea. Thus the Washing Up Fairy flew into town! But she’s on holiday this Christmas, so instead we have a selection of festive re-usable bubble bar wands for you to choose from! Patent pending.

 


NEW!

rocket.jpg

 


Rocket (Php 295) launch yourself into an out-of-this-world bath-time experience with this new reusable bubble bar. Hold onto the paper ‘flames’ and swish it around the tub for a softening, spicy violet scented bath and a mound of twinkling bubbles. Nestled underneath all those bubbles you’ll feel on top of the world and like your gazing at thousands of stars! Fire tree oil, clove bud and ginger oils were added to the fragrance to really get your engine going and warm up against the cold. Vegan

captain-bubblebeard.jpg

 

Captain Bubblebeard (Php 325) swish this reusable bubble bar shaped like Santa’s moustache around the tub for masses of white, skin softening, twinkling bubbles – then smooch some of the froth onto your chin to make a giant foamy beard! The remaining ‘tache on a stick can be used to complete the jolly look! This one will provide endless fun in the bath this Christmas for big and little kids. Plus, it’s full of beautiful essential oils such as sandalwood oil, lavender absolute and neroli oil, so your face will be left kissably soft for those under the mistletoe moments! Vegan

 

LUSH CLASSICS

magic-wand.jpg

 

Magic Wand (Php 395) … a magical pink star-shaped bubble bar on a wand to swish around the bath for Snow Fairy scented bubbles! Swish it around in the water for a skin softening, vanilla scented soak and a mound of candy bubbles. Then pop it on the side for use another time … just like magic! Patent pending. Vegan

 

Shower

When you buy a Lush shower gel, you’re buying a bottle that is almost bursting open with fresh ingredients and amazingly stimulating fragrances – but that’s not all you get; with Lush you get lasting effects for your skin every time you wash in the shower! Whether you want soft skin or you just want to smell good, we have something to suit your every festive need.

 

NEW!

ponche.jpg

 


Ponche (Php 275 for 100g / Php 525 for 250g / Php 995 for 500g) Spanish for punch, this shower gel is inspired by the Mexican fruit punch made from seasonal fruits such as plums, oranges, cinnamon and vanilla. All ingredients that can help warm and stimulate the senses. Wash your hair and body with this fruity, softening shower gel and lift your spirits on dark, gloomy days. There’s even a dash of tequila to give it a little kick and add some festive cheer! Vegan

twilight-shower-gel.jpg

Twilight (Php 375 for 100g / Php 725 for 250g / Php 1,225 for 500g) anyone in need of a good night’s sleep will love this lavender laden shower gel – the perfect Christmas gift from Lush for night-time shower takers! Contains a blend of deeply relaxing essential oils such as lavender flower infusion, lavender oil and ylang ylang – use this relaxing, soothing, deep purple, twinkly shower gel to calm your mind and get you ready for sleepytimes. Inspired by our best-selling bath ballistic Twilight, here in a shower gel form by huge popular demand. Vegan

snow-fairy-shower-gel.jpg

LUSH CLASSICS

Snow Fairy (Php 275 for 100g / Php 575 for 250g / Php 945 for 500g) … a perpetual hit with everyone (men and women, young and old) around the world and Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without it. Candyfloss pink and with a sweet, magical scent of soothing and comforting vanilla, the flecks of iridescent glitter leave you shimmering. Vegan

 

Bath Melts

Lush invented solid bath oils in 1999 and named them, quite simply, Bath Melts. Molten almond oil and Fair Trade cocoa butter form the heart of this bath time treat and really moisturise, soothe, soften and plump up the skin, leaving it silky smooth. Bath Melts are one of the most luxurious things you can put in the bath. Immersing yourself in beautiful, emulsifying and wonderfully fragranced butters is like luxuriating in a bath of moisturiser.melting-snowman.jpg

The Melting Snowman luxury bath melt (Php 145) … back again this year, pop him in the bath water and watch as he behaves like true snowmen do when left in the sun and melts into the warm water, leaving it all silky and moisturising for the skin. Cocoa and shea butters are fantastic emollients and intensely moisturising, helping to protect the skin against the cold; while almond oil is incredibly softening. This year he’s got a beautiful, comforting, spicy and warming hot toddy fragrance of cinnamon oil, clove leaf, lime oil and sweet orange oil. The ballistic mix in the recipe helps to disperse the oil in the melt more evenly throughout the bath, which means you get an immense all over moisturising soak. Patent pending. Vegan

 

Massage Bars

Chocolate bars were the inspiration for Mark Constantine OBE, who invented Lush’s range of gloriously scented, environmentally conscious, preservative and packaging free solid massage bars. An alternative to massage oil, we prefer to use lovely butters, like fair trade cocoa butter, that melt on contact with the skin and blend them with effective essential oils – much more efficient than messy oils that run all over the place! By including oils in the butter formulation we have been able to control the melt rate, so you can melt the exact amount required between your palms for the perfect massage

midnight-massage-bar.jpg

 


Midnight Massage (Php 425) perfect for enjoying a cheeky massage before the clock strikes Midnight and see where things take you! A deeply moisturising base of cocoa and shea butters are blended with comforting vanilla absolute and sensual jasmine, along with some forbidden fruits such as fig, carob pods and quince extract that act as a humectant, helping to nourish, hydrate and protect the skin. After a long day’s Christmas shopping what could be better than a relaxing massage with this stunning bar … you just have to find a willing masseuse! Vegan

 

Lip Scrubs

Invented by Rowena Bird, who knows how important it is to have gorgeously soft, smooth, kissable lips at all times! Lush’s lip scrubs each have a base of castor sugar and jojoba oil, along with a few other essential oils to make them yummy. The castor sugar gently exfoliates away any dry, flaky skin from the lips whilst the jojoba oil moisturises, leaving lips feeling soft, smooth and plumped up.

popcorn.jpg

http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8437/7886920536_a32e411dde.jpg

Popcorn lip scrub (Php 495) this one tastes so much like popcorn, you won’t be able to resist licking it off! Your lips are one of the most delicate and sensitive areas on your body and susceptible to the elements, especially in winter. Take a small amount of this lip scrub and apply to lips in a circular motion – the castor sugar will gently scrub away any dry flaky skin while the organic jojoba oil will soothe any redness and soreness. Follow with your favourite Lush lip balm to keep your kisses soft, nourished, delicately scented and mistletoe ready! The perfect stocking filler or Secret Santa gift – or just to keep in your bag at all times as a winter must have. Vegan

 

Sugar Scrubs

Invented in 2010 after working with the BBC’s Apprentices inspired us to create our own set of ‘sugar’ scrubs, for the ultimate bathroom battle against cellulite and those dreaded dimply bits! Sugar is fantastic at exfoliating the skin and keeping it stimulated to achieve that sought after toned look. One of the most important things to do is to keep your skin gently stimulated and maintain a healthy circulation. By doing this you’ll encourage the elimination of toxins, ensure a healthy turnover of cells and stimulate muscle tone!

Sandy Santa sugar scrub (Php 275)a festive sugar scrub to help you eliminate all the overindulgence and toxins of the festive season. Use in the shower, work in circular motions all over the body (paying particular attention to problem areas such as thighs and bum) and allow the sand and sugar combination to buff, polish and banish winter skin, revealing the brighter and smoother layer underneath. Also contains uplifting orange, rosewood and sandalwood essential oils. Sandalwood can also act as an astringent, toning the skin and helping to improve its overall appearance. Vegan!

 

Inspired by the Brazilian tradition of New Year sandcastle building competitions, that’s why he’s got sand in his hat! One of the favourite shapes for the sandcastles was Papai Noel … Father Christmas!

Why was it created?

Here is the ultimate Christmas Collection! Every year we create the collectors box showcasing (nearly*) all of the season’s specials in one grand chocolate box inspired gift! The design was inspired by the work of one of Hilary and Jiggly Paul’s favourite artists, Tord Boontje, and the massive scale of the box was inspired by Lucy and Becca’s trip to Chicago last Christmas – they were overwhelmed by the scale of all the gifts and wanted to create something like that for our customers!

Pop off the lid of this tin and have a magic moment discovering all the sweet bath, shower and lip treats inside.

 

Why was it created?

You may sometimes hear talk of gifts in terms of triangles – this is where we look at the different gifts at different price points and try to make sure we have something for everybody, so whatever your budget, you can find something that you are excited to give.

 

You may also hear talk of the pink triangle. This is not a euphemism (!), this is just looking particularly at our pink and sweet gifts as we know these are always popular and needed (apart from in Europe where they are not such fans of pink and think that the rest of us a bit crazy for liking it so much).

 

Well, Quality Treats is the tin in our pink triangle. Packed full of sweet goodness, Hilary and Paul came up with the name (not sure where they got the inspiration from?!) while Molly and Becca created the design. Ale helped Lucy work on the contents (although he’d rather his European colleagues didn’t know that!) – wow that’s a whole lotta team work!

We also love a good pun, so you can only imagine how delighted we were with this little beauty! We also firmly believe that hollydays should always be jollydays so we created a gift to help maintain said merriment!

Why was it created?

With Love From Santa was created by Rebecca. In search of something traditional and fun, it was originally created as a postcard that you could send to Santa to let him know whether you’ve been naughty or nice. But we thought once Santa has seen this gift that he’d want to give it to everyone so it became With Love From Santa!

Mr Frosty’s better – or should we say sweeter – half. Unwrap her for three jolly bath goodies.   

 

Why was it created?

This year a lot of people in the Lush world have got married – Charlotte, Annabelle, Lucy and Parky to name but a few. In keeping with this theme, Mr Frosty also got hitched, to a sweet Mrs! She’s cute, pink and just his type. When Angela and Chloe came to help Lucy with Christmas gifts they thought that Mr Frosty deserved some wedded bliss too!

Cinders Bath Ballistic

 

Unwrap this jolly snowman and discover three wonderful bath goodies for your tub.

 

Why was it created?

Mr Frosty sat on our shelves, till points and everywhere else we could balance him for the first time last year. He proved a real charmer with staff and customers alike. Whether it was his jaunty (sometimes drunken) angle, his cheeky smile or his three ballistics contents that won over the crowd, we couldn’t say (we suspect it was a combination of all these things!) This year he had to come back (and he’s brought his wife too).

 

Given how popular Mr Frosty was last year it seemed only right to switch up his contents a little – so any person lucky enough to get him two years in a row has a new trio of bath treats to enjoy.

This is another Jo design, and it had a very traditional ‘vintage Christmas’ feel.

Northern Lights Soap 100g

A big box full of Christmas cheer and festive fun; bath and shower treats for all the family.

Sometimes inspiration travels in circles! A while ago, Lucy was looking through an old CTG catalogue where she saw ‘Kaleidosoaps’. She then spoke to Michelle about making a big Kaleidosoap. While Michelle was looking into this she found an amazing image of a Kaleidoscope which Lucy then showed to Rebecca, which in turn inspired this gift – funny how things work sometimes!

We wanted a hatbox that was fun and playful to celebrate Christmas – don’t get us wrong, we love the traditional look too – but with so many fun and playful products it seemed only right that we have a big gift to showcase them!

Why was it created?

This year the lovely Cathy Hookey (an illustrator who works in our Truro Shop) joined the gifts team in Design to work on some projects. Whilst she was working with us, Harry suggested that we have a fun and celebratory fiesta in a tin, in honour of some of our Mexican inspiration this Christmas. Cathy did wonders with the idea of a Mexican Christmas with this quirky take on traditional Santa. This jolly design combined with the jovial contents (there’s even Retro in here!) will not fail to make people happy as Santa!

 

Fairyshiki

PHP 295

 

Contains…

Anything you want! Use this wonderful fairy Knot-Wrap to wrap ballistics, body lotion, soap – anything you fancy!

 

Why was it created?

One of the many wonderful things with gifts is having lots of people’s involvement. When Chloe (of Regent Street fame) and Angela (queen of Christmas 2009-2011) came to lend their creative juices to gifts, Chloe suggested making a fairy Knot-Wrap. Between Lucy and Chloe they came up with a design and for a while, she was going to be a gift. However things change and we soon realised that our fairy friend was too good ‘knot’ to have as a Knot-Wrap for wrapping anything you fancy!
