Witchy Woo Bubble Bar from Lush

The Witchy Woo Bubble Bar is a brand-new, limited edition product from Lush’s 2024 Halloween line.

Design wise, the Witchy Woo bubble bar looks and is made in the exact same way as the year round best-selling bubble bars, Brightside, The Comforter and Blue Skies and Fluffy White Clouds.

Lush get two different coloured bits of bubble-bar-dough then roll them together. The miniature sized ones are then squished from the top, a bit like you would do when laying cookies out on their baking tray. The larger sized bubbles are made a little differently, they are rolled into a big sausage shape and then chopped into slices (See above photo)

Each of these methods is how Lush get the beautiful bubble bar to look so perfectly swirled!

You can only buy the full sized Witchy Woo bubble bars individually, but the smaller sized ones are available in some of the Halloween giftsets.

The Witchy Woo bubble bar is both bright green and jet black, fitting right into the theme of Halloween. The striking green and black parts of the bubble bar spiral around each other, swirling in an almost hypnotising way. I love how the colours clash so well against each other, making the Witchy Woo bubble bar all-the-more eye-catching.

At approximately 200g each the full sized Witchy Woo bubble bars are one of Lush’s biggest bubble bars currently available.

The Witchy Woo bubble bar contains some of the following ingredients: lime oil, olibanum resinoid and neroli oil.

It shares its scent with my all-time favourite Halloween product (that Lush didn’t bring back AGAIN) the Monsters’ Ball bath bomb.

Other products that share its scent are the Zesty body spray, Man in the Moon bubble bar, Calacas shower gel and past Halloween bath bombs, The Enchanter and Big Foot.

The Witchy Woo bubble bars scent is best described as a sweet yet sharp, zesty mood boosting fragrance. Some say it reminds them of sour sweets. Its scent-family is in my top three favourite Lush scents, so I was more than delighted to see it in such a big bubble bar this Halloween!

To use the non-reusable bubble bars like Witchy Woo, 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.The best thing about the Witchy Woo bubble bar (apart from its scent) is just how far such a small amount of it goes.

You can get (at the very least) three baths out of just the one bubble bar without compromising on its scent quality and bubble amount. If you did however feel like you wanted to use more of it per bath, you can always add more, you are in charge after all!

The blanket of fluffy white bubbles starts to grow as soon as you place the broken-up pieces of the Witchy Woo Bubble Bar under the running tap.

Underneath the fast-building blanket of fluffy, white bubbles it looks like the water is turning a murky shade of green, but it slowly brightens up to a lighter shade of green. Something I wasn’t expecting with the bubble bar having so much black in it too.

The water underneath the bubbles is incredibly soft and in turn, left my skin feeling even softer once I was out of the bath. The scent lasted throughout the bath and lingered in the air long after pulling the plug too. My skin was also left fragranced although, it was very subtle.

Overall, I really enjoyed the Witchy Woo bubble bar and have grabbed a few more to use later on in the year as I am terrified that it won’t come back next Halloween, I have my fingers crossed that Witchy Woo isn’t one of Lush’s many one-hit-wonder-products as I can never get enough of this Lush-scent-family, especially at Halloween!

Green Machine Bubble Bar from Lush

The Green Machine Bubble Bar is yet another product from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle collaboration, TMNT x LUSH.

I was lucky enough to receive one in a surprise box sent to me by Lush. With bubble bars being one of my favourite Lush inventions, this made me very happy indeed!

All of the products in this line are inspired by no other than the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise.

Design wise, the Green Machine bubble bar looks similar to the likes of the big, all-year-round Lush bubble bars, Brightside, The Comforter and Blue Skies and Fluffy White Clouds.


The Green Machine is green and purple and made in the same way as the three bubbles bars I mentioned above. Two separate colours of bubble bar are rolled together then flattened, to get the pretty swirl design that it has.

At 200g per bubble bar, Green Machine is one of Lush’s biggest currently available. The Green Machine bubble bar contains some of the following ingredients: bergamot oil, clove bud oil, jasmine absolute, rose absolute, violet leaf absolute and ylang ylang oil.

On paper the Green Machine’s scent is floral through and through HOWEVER, the inclusion of ylang ylang and bergamot oil adds an extra but very subtle fruity layer to the fragrance.

I personally find violet leaf really good at combating tension headaches, so I am always happy to have a product or two with violet leaf in, in my possession.

To use the non-reusable bubble bars like the Green Machine bubble bar, I break it up then stick the bubble bar pieces into a sieve and let the running-tap trickle over it.

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.

The best thing about the Green Machine bubble bar is how far such a small amount of it goes.

You can get (at the very least) three baths out of just one bar without compromising on its scent quality and bubble amount. If you did however feel like you wanted to use more of it per bath, you can always add more, you are in charge after all!

The blanket of fluffy white bubbles starts to grow as soon as you place the broken-up pieces of the Green Machine Bubble Bar under the running tap.

Underneath the fast-building blanket of fluffy, white bubbles it looks like the water is turning a khaki green but after a while I realised it was more of a golden brown. (Not the shade of red wine that I had predicted it to be!)

Once in the bath, I couldn’t help but notice how soft the water was, the scent was just as powerful (if not more) when combined with the hot bath water and steam.

Once out of the bath, its scent although a lot more subtle, did last on my skin for a good-few-hours. Overall, I did like the Green Machine bubble bar, I was a little disappointed that the end water was brown but everything else about it was TURTLEy awesome!

Temple of Truth Bubble Bar from Lush

At the time of writing this review, the Temple of Truth Bubble Bar was last available in June 2024’s Lush Kitchen subscription box. Before that, I believe it was first released in 2006 and has made a number of appearances on and off since.

The Temple of Truth is a darker blue, cone shaped bubble bar. Colour wise, it’s a very close match to the shade of blue used in the Intergalactic bubble bar and has a similar shape to the Cyclops bubble bar; The Temple of Truth however has a much more relaxed cone shape, its point isn’t as pointy and precise.

With it being all one colour, it isn’t the most exciting looks wise and is on the smaller size too BUT I never like to judge a Lush product before using it.


Each Temple of Truth bubble bar contains some of the following ingredients: guaiac wood oil, ho wood oil and sandalwood oil.

Although the Temple of Truth bubble bar is one of Lush’s older products, as far as I am aware its scent has only ever been used in this bubble bar.

Its scent is gentle but has plenty of layers which I will attempt to put into words…

It’s earthy, woody, floral and a little musky. Being honest, it’s not a scent I would usually go for but it came in the Lush Kitchen subscription box, so I decided to give it a try.

To use the Temple of Truth bubble bar, I broke it up then put all of the pieces of it into a sieve. I then let the running water trickle over it.

I find this sieve method, the most effective way to use Lush’s single use bubble bars. It is also the best way to ensure none of the bubble bar gets accidentally wasted.

Through trial and error, I have found that using bubble bars like this makes the most bubbles too.

Normally with bubble bars I like to spread them out over several baths but with the Temple of Truth bubble bar being so small I decided to use the whole thing in one bath, something I do not regret.

The blanket of fluffy white bubbles starts to grow as soon as you place the broken-up pieces of the Temple of Truth Bubble Bar under the running tap. Underneath the fast-building blanket of fluffy, white bubbles the water turns a deep shade of blue.

Once in the bath, I couldn’t help but notice how soft the water was. There were so many bubbles that it took me a lot of swishing them away to actually get visuals of the water.

Once out of the bath, its scent although very subtle, lasted on my skin for a good-few-hours. I felt relaxed and ready for bed.

Overall, I did like the Temple of Truth bubble bar, the colour of blue it turns the water is such an inviting blue, but it isn’t a bubble bar I’m desperate to use again, it wasn’t at all unpleasant I just prefer fruitier Lush fragrances.
