Get Outta My Swamp Shower Slime from Lush

The Get Outta My Swamp Shower Slime is one of the brand-new products from the Lush X Shrek collaboration.

Ahead of the products website release on the 25th of March (2024) I was lucky enough to be gifted a pot of it by Lush and I can’t thank them enough for this.

Reviewing Lush products is just a hobby of mine, I never expect to be gifted anything, I am incredibly grateful just knowing that Lush know I exist in the first place!

All of the Lush X Shrek goodies are inspired by the Shrek franchise, but none are more ogre-appropriate than this glorious, yellowy-green shower slime…


Lush’s invention of the shower slime is a real conversation starter, and over the last few years I have heard mixed reviews on the concept of them BUT, I have yet to hear a single negative review from anyone who has actually used one.

Shower slime IS very slime-like BUT it’s not that much different to a shower gel. In fact, you pretty much use them just as you would a shower gel. They have a thicker, more tacky, milky-dough-like-consistency but are not at all sticky.

The Get Outta My Swamp shower slime shares its scent with another product from the Lush X Shrek collection, the Shrek Swamp bath bomb.

Some of the ingredients found in the Get Outta My Swamp shower slime are fresh wheatgrass juice, glycerine, corn starch, xanthan gum, pine oil, vetivert oil, peppermint oil and cocoa absolute.

Upon opening the lid, I can immediately smell the peppermint in it, the more you sniff the more layers of its fragrance seem to come through. I can also smell chocolate although it is subtle.

A small amount of the Get Outta My Swamp shower slime goes a long way making it very cost effective. As I said earlier, you use a shower slime in the exact same way as you would a shower gel. Scoop however much you want out of the pot then begin to lather it into your skin.

Looking into the pot the Get Outta My Swamp shower slime looks like a darker green colour but as you scoop it out of the pot and start to manipulate it in your hands you see that it is an almost luminous yellow. Coating yourself in it leaves you looking just like an ogre!

I must admit, I did panic a little when I see just how bright it was on my skin, but this super-creamy shower product easily rinsed off leaving my skin clean, soothed, and silky.

Once the Get Outta My Swamp shower slime is in amongst the hot water and steam of the shower its scent intensifies, you can really smell earthy notes in it too now.



Once out of the shower, the scent of the Get Outta My Swamp shower slime can still be detected on your skin several hours after using it.

What I wasn’t expecting from a shower slime was how soft it left my skin, it not only feels softer but also looks brighter too.

Overall, I really enjoyed using the Get Outta My Swamp shower slime, it not only does a good job of cleansing your skin but is also fun to use too. I can see this product being fun for all of the family, especially if you’re a Shrek fan already!

By Night One Way, By Day Another Body Spray from Lush

This March, Lush have released yet another amazingly popular collaboration line. This small but impressive line is inspired by no other than the Shrek franchise!

Today I am reviewing the By Night One Way, By Day Another Body Spray.

As you can see from the photos I have included in this review, the By Night One Way, By Day Another body spray has such a detailed product label featuring princess Fiona.

The magical part of this label is that it glows in the dark.

By day the picture of princess Fiona is a human and at night (in the dark) you can see a glow-in-the-dark version of princess Fiona as an ogre, just like in the Shrek movie!

The attention to detail from Lush in each of their products always blows my mind but this label really puts this product out there in a league of its own.

The By Night One Way, By Day Another body spray’s scent is brand new to Lush but also features in the Fiona shower gel from the same Lush X Shrek line.

The By Night One Way, By Day Another body spray contains some of the following ingredients, mango leaf absolute, violet leaf absolute and Persian lime oil.

Lush describe the body spray on their website as a ‘fairytale blend of lime and mango leaf with notes of fresh juicy melon and crisp green apple’.

Immediately after spraying the By Night One Way, By Day Another body spray you’re hit with a blend of lime and mango.

After it’s been on your skin for while crisp apple notes then come through and so does the melon aspect of the fragrance.

When Lush described the melon notes of this body spray as juicy, they weren’t wrong. It’s hard for me to put into words but I can really smell just how juicy the melon is. In some ways it’s just like you’re eating a melon…

As the body spray settles greener notes come through too, it really is just like a fairytale forest!

With the By Night One Way, By Day Another body spray being such a fruit dominant fragrance I was expecting its staying power to be weak but I was pleasantly surprised that the body spray didn’t need a top up until about 8 hours later. One quick spritz is all you need to leave you smelling great all day.

Overall, I love the By Night One Way, By Day Another body spray; The scent captures princess Fiona as a character so well and also ties in the whole fairytale theme too.

I hope this isn’t the last we see of this fresh and fruity Lush fragrance, I’d love to see it in other product formats in the future, a bath bomb or body lotion equivalent would be delicious.

Donkey Bath Bomb from Lush

Another day, another review of a product from the Lush X Shrek collaboration. Today I am pleased to be reviewing the Donkey Bath Bomb for you all!

Ahead of the products website release on the 25th of March (2024), I was lucky enough to be gifted most of the line by Lush. thanks again Lush, you’ve made my month with this surprise box of Shrek goodies!

Donkey is the very annoying but much loved, side kick/noble steed of the main character, Shrek.

The Donkey bath bomb does not disappoint looks wise, he is instantly recognisable as the flying, talking Donkey from the Shrek films; The fact that each Donkey bath bomb is handmade blows my mind. The 3D printer bath-bomb-moulds just keep getting better and better.

Donkey is a mixture of two colours, a silverish grey and bright blue. He is posing with his head to one side, with a big toothy grin and has one of his front legs lifted.

The Donkey bath bomb contains clove bud and ylang ylang oil and shares its scent with products from the Yog Nog Lush-scent-family such as the Yog Nog bath bomb and Yog Nog shower gel.

If you’ve watched Shrek, you’ll know that Donkey’s favourite food is waffles and that’s exactly what the Donkey bath bomb smells like! Lush’s attention to detail for every product they create is so much more than just making them look good.

When the Donkey bath bomb first encounters your bath water there is an explosion of blue foam, this quickly separates from the bath bomb, and you start to see super-shimmery, light grey foam spill out of it too.

It doesn’t take long for the water to fully engulf the Donkey bath bomb, as he slips under, shimmery blue and almost white bath art trickles out of it as it floats just under the water’s surface.

The photos I have included in this review do the Donkey bath bomb no justice at all, the bath art that it creates is very similar to the likes of the Frozen bath bomb, INCREDIBLE.

It takes about six minutes for the Donkey bath bomb to fully dissolve, the water left behind is a very inviting sky blue, I couldn’t stop swishing the water around as it’s so incredibly sparkly!

The Yog Nog, waffle-like-scent stays in your bathroom right up until the last drop of bath water disappears down your plug hole. It then remains on your skin for the best part of the rest of the day, shimmer too.

A Donkey bath left my skin feeling completely refreshed and left me craving waffles.

While I hate to pick favourites because I am ridiculously indecisive, I have to say that the Donkey bath bomb impressed me so much that if I had to choose between it and the Shrek Swamp bath bomb (from the same line), I’d choose Donkey based on its bath art.

I wasn’t expecting to like the Donkey bath bomb so much, the scent suited it so well and I also wasn’t expecting such incredible bath art from it either.

I’m so sad that the Shrek line is limited edition as I feel most of the products in it would do well as permanent main-line-products.
