Bee Body Balm from Lush

The Bee Body Balm is yet another exciting product from the Lush X Bridgerton line, Lush kindly gifted me most of the in-store and online Bridgerton stock and I have to say, the Bee body balm is a standout favourite.

I have really enjoyed exploring each of the new Bridgerton products, it is making the wait for part two of season three that little bit easier to get through!

The Bee body balm is the same shape as one of Lush’s standard massage bars; It actually fits into the oval Lush tin perfectly, even with the lid on.

The products design is incredibly detailed, on its front there is a honeycomb-like design and then a giant bee, with the letter ‘B’ on its bottom.

The Bee body balm contains fair trade cocoa butter, cornstarch, organic illipe butter, fairtrade organic mango butter, almond oil, organic rose hip oil, Brazilian orange oil and bergamot oil.

It’s a light-yellow colour and is a member of the Honey I Washed The Kids scent-family. Some other products that share its scent and that I have reviewed are the Golden Egg shower gelShoot for the Stars bath bomb and Scrubee body butter.

Some have actually described the Bee body balm as a Scrubee body butter without the scrubby bits.

The Bee body balm smells just like a pot of honey but with a slight citrus twist. I’d also like to point out that it is completely Vegan which is a big deal as back in the day, products with this scent were originally only vegetarian.

Even though Bee looks like a massage bar it is a body balm. It’s hard for me to say for definite what differentiates between a body balm and massage bar as you do use both in similar ways.

My understanding of Bee is that it’s not quite as oily as a massage bar and during application almost takes on a powder like consistency, that powdery part then quickly sinks in because of the heat of your skin.

I thought that with the Bee body balm not being as oily as a massage bar, it would mean I need to use more to get my desired level of hydration but a little goes a long way.

I’ve used the Bee body balm five or six times now, focusing only on my elbows and other dry patches of skin. I’ve even used it as a cuticle oil with good results.

The scent lasts on your skin for a good few hours, as does its moisturisation level.Overall, I am very impressed with the Bee body balm and I’m excited to see what body balms Lush come up with in the future!

See And Be Seen Body Wash from Lush

The See And Be Seen Body Wash is another product from the Lush X Bridgerton line, I was lucky enough to be given a pot of it by Lush.

I have really enjoyed exploring each of the new Bridgerton products, they are all so carefully thought out.

Lush describe the See And Be Seen body wash as a product that will have you ‘smelling decadent and ready to step into your spotlight’.

As you can see from the photos I have included in this review, the See And Be Seen body wash has such an exquisitely decorated label, fitting right in with all things Bridgerton!


The See And Be Seen body wash contains a fresh rose petal infusion, cornstarch, xantham gum, fresh strawberry juice, Pakistani rose absolute and rose, geranium and lemon oils.

It is a dark red colour and shares its scent with the best-selling Rose Jam shower gel so has naturally received a lot of interest, out of all of the new Bridgerton products See And Be Seen body wash is the one I have received the most questions about.

Although Rose Jam is primarily a floral based, rose-rich fragrance, it also has other depths to it with the addition of the lemon oil; This pinch of zest really rounds off the scent in an almost musky way.

Rose scents are often associated with the older generations but the See And Be Seen body wash has proven popular for all ages.

Its consistency is very similar to a shower slime, but it separates a bit easier. Lush’s shower slimes can be stretched while still intact, whereas the See And Be Seen body wash you can pull bits off of, almost in a clump. If I had to compare its consistency with something I’d say it is most like a jam.

I am pleased to say that a very small amount of the See And Be Seen body wash goes a long way making its higher price easier to swallow.

A small scoop easily lathers up, I recommend adding hot shower water to help get it going.

See And Be Seen body wash smells heavenly so it’s very tempting to overindulge, I however feel the less you use the better the washing experience. Too much product makes it harder to lather up and it becomes way too creamy in an unpleasant way. Remember, with this body wash, less is more!

I don’t think I’ve ever used such a small amount of a product with such amazing results on my skin before. A small amount of See And Be Seen body wash leaves my skin clean, hydrated and silky smooth to the touch.

Its scent remains on your skin for several hours after you have used it and your skin also stays hydrated and soft right up until your next shower.

Overall, I feel as if the See And Be Seen body wash is a fantastic edition to the ever growing, Rose-Jam-scented-products-family and I feel the scent fits right into the Bridgerton theme perfectly.

I’d be interested to see other products come out in the same jam-like consistency; I feel with you needing to use such a small amount per wash it could be a decent way of saving money without losing the thrill of using a luxury product!

Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut Bath Bomb from Lush

Right on time for the very exciting Netflix release of Bridgerton season 3, Lush has created a line of Lush X Bridgerton products! One part of the collaboration was a Bridgerton themed Lush Kitchen Subscription Box and Fresh and Flowers box, and the other was a line of online and in store products.

Today I’ll be reviewing the Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut Bath Bomb from the online and in store Bridgerton line.

I was lucky enough to receive a Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut bath bomb in a surprise box sent from Lush. I squealed the house down when I saw the parcel sat on my doorstep!

The Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut bath bomb is beautiful. I’ve had to include two main photos for this bath bomb just so you can see how spectacular it is. It’s been created in the shape of a diamond and on its top, it has a crown etched into it.

The Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut bath bomb is 3 different colours that complement each other perfectly, a light blue, dark blue and purply-pink.

Each of the bath bombs are approximately 125g each and are just the right size to fit snuggly in my hand.

The Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut bath bomb contains bergamot oil, lemon myrtle oil and benzoin resinoid. It shares its scent with the, The Elephant in the Tea Room bath bomb from 2022’s Mother’s Day line.

Its scent is a very light citrus one, it would be a good bath bomb to go for if you’re into the more subtle Lush scents.

Although it’s not a super powerful fragrance it does leave me cheery and bright, sometimes less really is more!

The Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut bath bomb is almost too pretty to use, it’s a perfect little work of art, I love its diamond shape, the three different colours it has and the embossed crown on its top. It really is fit for royalty.

As the Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut bath bomb comes in to contact with your bath water there is a gentle hiss as a tiny stream of the three different colours fizzles out of it.

The lemon myrtle oil really comes through once the bath bomb is in the heated water, it’s a really uplifting yet gentle fragrance.

The Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut bath bomb is taken over by the water after about three minutes and that’s when the bath bomb starts to dance around your bathtub creating swirly blue and pink bath art.

After just under ten minutes the bath bomb has fully dissolved, the water left behind is sky blue and so sparkly, you can tell exactly why Lush decided to make it a diamond shaped bath bomb!

The water left my skin feeling silky soft and well hydrated, I really didn’t want to get out of the bath.

Overall, I loved the Colour, Clarity, Carat, Cut bath bomb, its scent although gentle left me feeling so chilled out and uplifted.

The bath art it created was incredible too, as always, my photos in this review do it no justice at all.

I’d love to see this become a mainline product one day, there’s not a single thing that I dislike about it.
