‘I am trapped in a sweet-smelling cycle of video game-branded toiletries’: Lush’s Mario Galaxy range, reviewed

TL;DR

  • Lush has launched a Super Mario Galaxy range of skincare and bathing products.
  • The collection features space-themed designs inspired by the new movie.
  • Products include a Princess Rosalina lip scrub with edible stars and a Protect the Galaxy shower gel with sparkly lustre.
  • The shower jelly contains Lumas, and the Princess Peach lip jelly is noted for its subtle, non-sticky finish.
  • The Luma bubble bath star effectively created bubbles in hard water areas.
  • The Yoshi Egg bath bomb has gone viral because its red shower gummy leaks a 'bloody trail,' which has scared children.
  • The author finds the collection enjoyable, particularly the sweet, fruity fragrances and stylistic nods to the Super Mario Galaxy universe.
