One of the simplest, most leisurely, and affordable luxuries is a bubble bath. Most of the time, I just squirt some shower gel into the bath, but sometimes I treat myself to more of a spa-like treatment by splurging on a bath fizzy.
Around this time of year, I head to Lush to stock up on its Holiday bubble bar ($6.95).

Lush have been ahead of the eco-beauty game for some time. The natural cosmetics store has recently been placing great emphasis on raising awareness about excessive packaging. They already use unusual items to pack out their gift sets (including popcorn!) but they are now reinforcing a warning of its effects on the environment.
I recently confessed that I haven't yet found a shampoo that delivers the shimmering shine that is ubiquitously displayed in every hair commercial on television. I did, however, find the next best thing: Shu Uemura's Satin Design styling lotion. I love it so much that it's now a part of my blow-drying routine.

Buffy Summers is arguably the smartest, strongest, most complex heroine in TV history, and I'm disappointed that we haven't seen anyone come close to her coolness since Buffy went off the air. (Maybe Dollhouse will change that.) But I remember Buffy every time I rub my bottom.
Let me explain.

Here are a couple of cute beauty-related sweet nothings to wrap up my series on Valentine's Day beauty products. These goodies make great heart-pounding gifts for your sweetie (or, if you prefer, just for yourself). And while you're thinking about love, don't forget to beauty mark your favorite Valentine's Day skin savers.
Ever ready with a cheeky pun, Lush has just come out with a new massage bar for Valentine's Day. It's called Play Your Cards Right ($8.95), and as you can see, it's designed just like a playing card. Cute, right? 
It seems like the holiday shopping season just ended, but the sales are actually just beginning. Starting tomorrow, you can score some good prices on Lush bath, body and facial products. Because the brand is all about being fresh, the stores are clearing out items made before this month. 
This week, Lush is introducing Charity Pot ($19.95), a hand and body lotion. I'm going to buy it not just because it's new, but because every penny of proceeds is going to a selection of worthy causes including Clean Ocean Action, International Fund for Animal Welfare, and UNICEF's United for Children, Unite for AIDS program. What's more, it's made with fairly traded cocoa butter from the Ivory Coast and the Dominican Republic. 
I know a lot of you are big fans of Lush, the British natural bath and body care company. Stores have been rolling out across the United States for the last few years, but now they're really going to get going. "America is one of those later markets for us," Mark Constantine, Lush's managing director, said to WWD. 
This singer is famous for her pert and perky bottom (oh yeah, and for songs that you can't get out of your head, too). When she needs to give her bum a good scrub, she turns to Lush Aqua Mirabilis. TeamSugar members who correctly guess her identity earn 25 points!
