Lush claim that this bubble bar is 'perfect for grey days when you wish for a bit of sparkle in your life.' So when the weather turned from bad to worse last week, and I was considering migrating somewhere hot for the 'summer', I thought it was the perfect time to try it out.
Sunnyside is definitely one of Lush's most intimidating bubble bars. For those of us concerned with 'mess', the sheer sight of a bar painted with gold glitter, might seem like the worst idea ever. But I was feeling messy, so what was the worst that could happen?
As soon as the bubble bar hit the water, the bar began to foam and it wasn't long before the entire bath tub was full of gorgeous, citrusy bubbles. Having seen what an entire bar can do, you could easily use this on 2-3 separate occasions if you so wish.
The bubbles that Sunnyside create have a lovely, creamy and soft consistency that gently caress your skin whilst your bathing. The water swirls with a golden shimmer that creates a beautiful display every time the water moves. You really feel as if you're bathing in luxury.
The initial scent of this bar is a citrusy fragrance made up of wild orange and lemon oils. It's a sweet smell that is similar to lemon sorbet or sherbet.The sweet orange oil helps to soothe sensitive and overworked skin, acting as an anti-flammatory for broken and damaged skin. The use of tangerine oil helps you to relax and can even help insomnia.
The scent is quite strong in the dry state and also quite strong in the bath. It's an invigorating smell that is delicate and refreshing, and one that is guaranteed to wake you up. It stays with you throughout the whole bath and lingers in the bathroom for hours after use.
The good thing, for those that were worried about the glitter, is that it doesn't attach itself to your skin. So once you exit the bath, you won't have to spend hours trying to rinse it out of your hair or off your body. However, it does tend to stick to the tub, although this is easily rectifiable by giving your bath a quick rinse with the shower hose after use.
I highly recommend Sunnyside, especially for those days when you need a little something to perk you up.
