SUNNYSIDE BUBBLEBAR WORKSHOP




As you know, I love Lush. When scrolling through my Facebook timeline as I usually do, I noticed a post from my local Lush shop, informing people about in-store workshops that were going to take place over the weekend to make the Sunnyside bubble bar. Naturally, I put my name on the list!

Sunnyside is a lovely glittery and golden coloured bubble bar. When crumbled into the bath, it changes the water to an indulging shimmery gold sea. It adds a lovely creamy texture to the water too which is amazing and skin softening. It is described to have a citrusy scent, with featured ingredients such as sweet wild orange oil to cleanse and tone the skin, at the same time creating an uplifting and cheerful aroma - perfect for summer!

I am not a huge fan of orange, however I personally would describe the smell of Sunnyside to be similar to chocolate orange, and the orange scent is not too over powering. It really is a beautiful smell.

It was really fun to take part in this workshop, where I got to create my very own Sunnyside bubble bar! It was so interesting to see how they combine ingredients together to create it. It was much like making a cake, adding each of the ingredients together into a bowl and then mixing together.We then each got a piece of the mix to shape into whatever we liked - I went for the original rounded shape, however they were still in the process of rising at this point, so by time we had got home it had doubled in size and slightly changed shape. I'm not complaining though - it means I get more baths out of it! Once home, we had to leave them to set for 24 hours before using.

Whilst there, we were also offered some cake and pineapple juice from the lovely staff at the Lush store, which was really nice. They also demonstrated how to make a mermaid bath cocktail by using the Big Blue bath bomb and of course, the Sunnyside bubble bar. It makes the water turn a turquoisy-green colour with a gorgeous golden shimmer to it. I must admit it was pretty amazing. Did you know that Lush are the only company that is able to create a solid bubble bath?, the main reason behind this is because it creates less packaging!

If you are interested in purchasing either of the products mentioned then you can get them online using these links Sunnyside and Big Blue , or visit your local Lush store! You can also ask them if there are any workshops taking place near you, I would really recommend that you attend one, I mean who can resist free Lush?
