Have yourself a stellar little Christmas

Stars are everywhere this season. The hottest trend around, you may have noticed they are currently making a big statement on everything from clothes to shoes and jewellery to belts.

Injecting a bit of sparkling spirit into your winter beauty routine, LUSH Fresh Handmade Cosmetics have introduced a limited edition collection of star themed beauty treats and gifts that are bound to keep you starry-eyed and bang on trend throughout the season.

NEW! Magic Wand reusable bubble bar (£4.95 for 100g) … a magical pink star-shaped bubble bar on a wand to swish around the bath for Snow Fairy scented bubbles! It’s made with the multi-use bubble bar mixture, so lasts for many baths making it great value for money. Simply swish it around in the water for a skin softening, vanilla scented soak and a mound of candy bubbles. Then pop it on the side for use another time. It will add some star power to any bath! Patent pending. Vegan.

Superstars bubble bar (£2.25 for 100g) … we’ve reformulated our bubble bar mixture to enable this star to be embedded all the way through the bar … just like a stick of rock! This one comes in two colour combinations – a red bar with a gold star or visa versa. Fragranced with a sweet and delicious strawberry scent, there’s also some angelica root to help aid relaxation. Crumble under running water for masses and masses of super bubbles! Patented. Vegan.
