Alien Bunny Bath Bomb from Lush

The Alien Bunny Bath Bomb is a brand-new, limited-edition product from Lush’s 2024 Easter line.

Weighing in at approximately 135g each, it is a little bit smaller than the Bunny Moon bath bomb from the same (2024) Easter line.

There seems to be a space theme…

The Alien Bunny bath bomb is a hot pink bunny flying around in a bright yellow spaceship. Underneath the spaceship is a small patch of green giving you a big clue on what’s to come bath-art-wise.

The Alien Bunny bath bomb contains grapefruit oil, Sicilian lemon oil, lime oil and freeze-dried carrot powder. Each of the ingredients have been carefully selected and mixed together to create an out-of-this-world, energising and refreshing bathing experience.

Lush’s website actually describes it as an ‘uplifting and other-worldly’ bath bomb.

I really like the Alien Bunny bath bombs scent; In ways it is similar to the likes of the Avobath bath bomb but it’s not quite as fierce.

My nose picks up mostly on the lime and Sicilian lemon oil that is in it, the grapefruit oil doesn’t make it at all bitter. It’s the perfect bright and cheery citrus fragrance for getting you ready for Springtime.

Some past products that share the same scent as the Alien Bunny bath bomb include, the Bubble Spinner reusable bubble bar and Sherbet Dip bath bomb.

As soon as the Alien Bunny bath bomb touches the water you are greeted with an explosion of yellow foam, it doesn’t take long for some pink foam to also appear.

Shortly after the Alien Bunny bath bomb has been placed into the water a stream of green begins to shoot out of the bath bomb too.

Yellow, pink and green swirls slowly decorate the surface of your bath water as the bath bomb charges around. With all of the bath bombs colours clashing together so well it makes for some pretty amazing bath art.

The scent of the bath bomb is just as strong in the water as it was holding the bath bomb in my hand.

Alien Bunny is a fairly quick fizzer, after just 5 minutes it has fully dissolved. After swishing away the yellow, pink and green bath art you are left with acid-yellow bath water.

It’s not a colour that bothers me personally, BUT I have heard of some people complaining that it’s not the most pleasant colour to bathe in. As I said, it really doesn’t bother me at all; it’s just bath water and smells divine, there’s nothing at all gross about it.

The acid-yellow water is really soft and leaves my skin lightly scented as well as looking brighter, I wouldn’t say my skin was particularly hydrated after using this bath bomb but I’m also not desperate to slather myself with body lotion after using it either.

A body lotion in the same scent would be really, really good though. Hint, hint Lush…

At the very end I was surprised to find the little paper cow (pictured above) hidden inside of the Alien Bunny bath bomb. It seems that the alien bunny’s hobby was abducting cows, don’t worry I have reunited the cow with its family and it seems happy enough. Although, it now has a slight phobia of pink bunny rabbits! 😉

Sticky Dates Body Lotion from Lush

The Sticky Dates Body Lotion is a brand-new, limited-edition product from Lush’s 2024 Easter line. I was lucky enough to get to try it before its official release date as Lush kindly sent me a bottle.

No matter the product format, any item that comes out in Lush’s Sticky Dates scent-family seems to always sell well. Another item from this year’s Easter line that shares the body lotions scent is the Sticky Dates sugar scrub.

My first experience with the Sticky Dates fragrance was through the Sticky Dates shower gel. I have also enjoyed the Sticky Dates co-mingle body scrub and Sticky Dates body spray too. It’s a scent that I fell in love with upon first sniff and one I am always happy to see be recreated into a new Lush product!


Most Lush body lotions come in Lush’s stand-out black pots; However, the Sticky Dates body lotion comes in a bottle. You can get it in either a 100g bottle or a 250g bottle.

Before I had a bottle of it in my possession, I imagined that the fact it was sold in bottles and not pots could have been because it was a slightly runnier consistency. I was wrong, it is not at all runny and is in fact super thick and creamy.

The main ingredients of the Sticky Dates body lotion are, sunflower oil, vanilla pod decoction, organic jojoba oil, glycerine, fair trade organic cocoa butter, organic illipe butter, carob resinoid, benzoin resinoid and sandalwood oil. The glycerine is the magic ingredient that helps lock in all the moisturising ingredients into your skin.

The Sticky Dates scent is best described as mouth-wateringly delicious. It smells like a hot and gooey sticky toffee pudding with a generous scoop or two of refreshing, vanilla ice cream. The ingredients in common with the shower gel equivalent are the vanilla, sunflower, sandalwood oils and both carob and benzoin resinoids.

Even though the Sticky Dates body lotion is quite thick, it’s incredibly easy to get out of the bottle.

A very small amount of it goes a long way; although, I wouldn’t blame you for overindulging with it as it smells so good! Another thing that surprised me about the Sticky Dates body lotion was how quickly it melted into your skin.

Some body lotions can leave you feeling a little greasy, but I’m pleased to report that the Sticky Dates body lotion doesn’t leave your skin feeling sticky, clammy, or over moisturised at all.

A small amount of rubbing the lotion in ensures that it sinks into your skin leaving it hydrated in all the good ways, all while leaving it appearing brighter and feeling soft and perfectly refreshed too.

As I said earlier, a small amount of the lotion goes a very long way making it incredibly cost effective. My favourite thing about this lotion is how long its scent lingers on your skin. It lasts ALL DAY, that and how it leaves my skin plump and bright through to the next day is what makes it a standout body lotion. I can’t wait to see what Sticky Dates product Lush releases next!

Bunny Moon Bath Bomb from Lush

The Bunny Moon Bath Bomb is a brand-new, limited-edition product from Lush’s 2024 Easter line.

Weighing in at approximately 230g each, it is a little bit lighter than the similar, rabbit-head-shaped Ostara bath bomb from last year’s (2023) Easter line.

With the Bunny Moon bath bomb being 230g it’s one of the biggest in the Easter collection.

The Bunny Moon bath bomb is bright blue with bright pink ears, it’s made in the shape of a rabbit’s head and has several pink craters in it, giving it it’s moon-like-look.

The Bunny Moon bath bomb contains coconut milk powder, rice bran absolute, lime oil, benzoin resinoid and carob resinoid. It is described on Lush’s website as ‘a comforting bedtime bath.’

It has such a complex scent that I don’t even know where to begin to describe it. My nose definitely picks up on the lime in it but it’s also a little smoky too.

I must admit, it’s not the type of Lush scent that I would usually go for but I like to try everything at least once, as you never know when you’re going to come across a new favourite.

The Bunny Moon bath bomb’s scent really is an acquired taste making it a strange choice from Lush. It will most likely appeal to customers who like scents that are strong and a little out of the ordinary.

As soon as the Bunny Moon bath bomb touches the water you are greeted with an explosion of blue fizzing bubbles.

It doesn’t take long for pinky-purple streaks to appear from the Bunny Moon bath bomb too.

The scent of the bath bomb really comes to life once placed into the water, it’s very, very intense. I’m always honest in my reviews and I’m not a huge fan of the scent, it’s just a little too strong and smoky for me.

Putting my thoughts on the Bunny Moon bath bombs scent to one side it does create plenty of photo worthy pink and blue bath art, my photos in this review (as always) do the bath bomb no justice at all.

The Bunny Moon bath bomb’s scent lingers in your bathroom and takes a good 10 minutes to fully dissolve.

Once you’ve pulled the plug its scent still hangs around somewhat. As for how it smells on your skin once you’re out of the bath, I’m pleased to say it’s a lot more subtle. I much prefer the scent at this potency level. Sometimes less is more.

The water left behind by the Bunny Moon bath bomb is dark blue and silky smooth thanks to the coconut milk powder.

My skin still feels silky smooth several hours after getting out of the bath. I wouldn’t say my skin feels particularly hydrated after using Bunny Moon but I’m not desperate to slather myself in a body lotion either.

Overall, I thought that the Bunny Moon bath bomb was brilliantly colourful during use, but I’d have liked to have seen it with a lighter more Spring appropriate fragrance.

I can’t help but hope that Lush bring out another bunny-head-shaped bath bomb design for next Easter too!
