Review: Lush Li'l Lush Pud

One of my favourite Lush Christmas offerings. I stocked up on these last Christmas! I plan on doing the same this year.

What Lush say:

"It May Be Li'l, But It's No Pudding

Our li'l version of a traditional Christmas pudding grows more popular every year. The fragrance of our pud will instantly make you hungry for a figgy pudding. Although this is a ballistic, it contains many of the things you'll find in your Christmas dessert.

Bath Time Dessert

The Pud is one of our most soothing ballistics. It's made with aloe vera extract to nurture dry or rough skin and add a brown colour to the little bomb

Cloves

Cloves are spicy and have a mild analgesic effect. We use powdered clove to add spice to our fizzing figgy pudding.

Powdered lemon peel

Powdered lemon peel and clove add both sweetness and spice, giving you the full pudding experience right there in your bathroom."

The reason why I love this product so much is not because of how adorable it looks - perfect stocking filler by the way! - but because of how lovely it smells and how moisturising it is despite its small size. When you slip into the bath, you're surrounded by sweet, spicy, warm water that brings about the essence of Christmas. Food, family, fun. You feel your belly warming, your back relaxing and your lips curling up at the sides. The only downside I'd say, is the colour. It turns your bath water into a browny yellow colour which can only be compared to something that should probably (though I hear incredible stories about its properties) never be mentioned on a beauty blog.

When you get out of the bath, reach for your towel warming on the radiator and wrap it around yourself, it's easy to feel why I love this so much. Your skin is soft and your head is clear, ready for a night of dreaming about what Boots will bring you for Christmas *cough* Givenchy Ange ou Demon Le Secret *cough* and what delicious warm drink you'll have waiting for you once you curl up on the sofa in front of the telly.

I highly recommend this one. If you've tried it, let me know what you think!
