Lush sale haul!

Over the past 4 or 5 months my love for Lush has literally taken over my bank account. My stash of products is getting crazy and when they had a sale I just couldn't help myself. I absolutely love the overwhelming scent that hits you face on as soon as you walk through the door of the shop. Some bits aren't from the sale and are just what i picked up before christmas (minus a few i have used already).
Snow Fairy SPARKLE BAR £2.78
This is super silky and creamy. Its described to have a fondant like centre filled with glitter. It smells just like the Snow Fairy shower gel and was £2.78 in the sale. It's from their winter/christmas range so won't be in stock until late 2014, leaving me reluctant to squish it up !
Cinders bath bomb £1.23
I cannot stand cinnamon whatsoever but the idea of popping candy in a bath bomb really excited me. I will probably have run a bath for my mum to listen to it then let her enjoy as she loves the smell. The popping candy is supposed to remind you of being cosy next to a fire and is also only a christmas product!

Creamy Candy Bubble bar £2.50
I'm lead to believe this product is in stock all year round which makes me super happy. It smells like candy floss, amazing for those who love sweet things. Its soft and crumbles under running water into a layer of soft, silky, moisturising  water. I'm pretty sure the flower is one of those icing cake decorations too!

Bombardino £1.25
This little fella was inspired by a drink made in the Alps of Italy which consists of eggnog, brandy and whipped cream. However, Lush's version is a mini meringue pie with skin softening cocoa butter! (Another christmas special)
Shoot for the Stars BALLISTIC £1.63
I got two of these bath ballistics in the sale which claim to create lustres of swirling colours in your bath. With a honey-toffee scent like the 'Honey I washed the kids' soap it's only available around christmas time! I'm so excited to use this!
The Comforter Bubble Bar £4.50

I genuinely don't remember paying £4.50 for this product however, if I did, I must have felt the size of it and thought it was worth it. It is huge! It reminds me of the smell of ribena or vimto sweets. It creates large amounts of bubbles when crumbled under running water and rumour has it that it can be spared over multiple bath times!
Golden wonder Bath bomb £1.75
Okay now these bath bombs are HUGE. I got 3 in the sale and used one already and has lasted at least 3 bath times! Kind of defeats the object as the colour is throughout the core of the product and is filled with tiny little stars, but it works just as well. From the description on the website "This ballistic contains edible gold lustre and soluble paper stars – so there’ll be no sparkly bits left to clean out of your bath afterwards.", I'm not sure how i feel about this but its pretty cool anyway!

The only problem with buying lots of things from Lush sales is the expiry date. The products are fresh and the sooner they get used the more benefits you will receive from them. However, I love baths and nobody got hurt from having too many baths, right?!
