You are never too old to marvel at the sight of a bath bomb. You know: those kaleidoscopic balls of bicarb, that you put under a hot tap and watch fizz into a rainbow pinwheel. These days, they're pretty and functional: you can get bath bombs that are infused with CBD to help you sleep, soothe aching muscles or even ones to wake you up. Some of the best of them come from Lush.
The brand, that label themselves 'natural, ethical and handmade', has become somewhat of a beauty mecca for bath and body product fans. The bath bombs are only half the story, though: if you're in the market for a new shower gel or body moisturiser, look past the bath bomb stand, especially now it's sale time.

Naturally, a bath bomb does make an appearance, but you'll also find plenty of other products from the range to shop. Some products are even in the Boxing Day sale, so do move quickly...

1 of 7Lush Milky Bath Reusable Bubble Bar, £8.50
Look no further for kind-to-skin bubbles. These Bubble Bars are genius: hold them under a hot, running tap, and out come bubbles frothing from the water below. Milky Bath is a firm favourite: it has soothing oat extract that keeps skin feeling super soft, and really does last for multiple uses.

2 of 7Lush Big Shampoo, £8
This shampoo is unassumingly brilliant. It's a gritty, sea salt texture, that makes light work of clarifying the scalp and delivering tangible volume to the root of the hair. It does what it says on the tin: hair looks markedly bigger after one use.
3 of 7Lush Snow Fairy Body Conditioner, £2.50
Run, don't walk. Lush's bestselling, candy floss scented body moisturiser is on sale (and it won't stick around for long). Snow Fairy is mouthwateringly sweet and adored by those in the know: the brand even made a (limited edition) body spray of it, as fans couldn't get enough.
4 of 7Lush Honey I Washed The Kids Soap, £4
This soap can be used on hands or body, but hands that have been ravaged by frequent sanitising will benefit from this soothing soap most. It has - you guessed it - honey, as well as aloe in this formula, leaving hands soft to the touch. For the price, you also get a satisfyingly large slab, too.
5 of 7Lush Deep Sleep Bath Bomb, £5.95
If you're a night time bather, this is the bath bomb to keep on standby. Tied in a biodegradable muslin cloth, it's one that might be overlooked when competing against its colourful counterparts. Keep the product in the cloth when you lower it into the bath: out will pour a twilight purple colour, scented with lavender and neroli. This one sets you up for a satisfyingly deep snooze.
6 of 7Lush Conga Shower Jelly, £5.50
Good, clean fun. Shower Jellies are exactly that: little mounds of jelly that you hold in the palm of your hand, and run all over your body to create cleansing bubbles. Conga smells good enough to eat, with raspberry and creamy vanilla lingering on the skin long after use.
7 of 7Lush Dream Cream Body Lotion, £4.50
A firm favourite amongst Lush fans, Dream Cream delivers a heavy hit of moisture to parched, thirsty limbs (and still absorbs quickly). Lightly scented with rose and lavender, body moisturising has never been as dreamy.
