The Shaun the Sheep X Lush collaboration is finally out! In partnership with Aardman, Lush have created six fresh, fully vegan products – each of them a tribute to Shaun the Sheep and the charming characters from his world.
Today I am reviewing the Sleepy Timmy Bubble Bar, I was lucky enough to receive one in a PR box from Lush.
The Sleepy Timmy bubble bar is based on the main character (Shaun’s) younger cousin, Timmy. Like the Shaun The Sheep bath bomb from the same collection, the Sleepy Timmy bubble bar is made into the characters face, unlike Shaun, Timmy doesn’t have a fluffy white top but does have two similar large cartoonish eyes.
The Sleepy Timmy bubble bar is all black apart from the whites of his eyes. In ways, it reminds me of the Bewitched bubble bar – that bubble bar was also all black apart from its yellow eyes.
Weighing in at approximately 100g, Sleepy Timmy is one of Lush’s smaller bubble bars. Given its size, I decided to use the entire bar for a single bath. Normally, I stretch my bubble bars across multiple baths, but this time, I opted to indulge in the full Sleepy Timmy experience all at once.
Ingredients wise, the Sleepy Timmy bubble bar contains some of the following ingredients: lavender oil, chamomile oil, lavender absolute and neroli oil.
The Sleepy Timmy bubble bar scent is a part of Lush’s Deep Sleep scent-family. Other products that have recently come out in the same scent include the Sleepy Bear shower gel and Deep Sleep bath bomb.
Sleepy Timmy is packed with some of the world’s most relaxing ingredients, boasting a lavender-rich scent with soothing notes of chamomile.
While my nose struggles to pick up on the neroli that is in Sleepy Timmy, its calming effects are undeniably there, I was left feeling content and blissfully relaxed – just what neroli used in cosmetics is known for.
To use the non-reusable bubble bars like Sleepy Timmy, I break them up then stick the bubble bar pieces into a sieve and let the running-tap spill over it (see above photo).
This method is the best way to ensure none of the bubble bar gets accidentally wasted and through trial and error, I have worked out that it is the best way to get the most out of your bubble bar, bubble wise.
A blanket of fluffy white bubbles starts to grow as soon as you place the broken-up pieces of the Sleepy Timmy bubble bar under the running tap.
Underneath the bubbles the water turns jet black. I noticed as the bubbles built up that the larger bubbles had an almost rainbow tinted sheen to them, it was hard to capture in a photo, the above photos is the best I managed.
Having a good soak in a Sleepy Timmy bath left my skin feeling silky smooth and looking fresh as a daisy. The scent lasted throughout the whole bath and left me feeling a little sleepy, maybe I should have used it before bed instead of first thing in the morning…
Overall, I really enjoyed using the Sleepy Timmy bubble bar, it’s a great addition to the Shaun The Sheep X Lush line!
