In the spring of 2024, for World Bath Bomb Day, Lush Cosmetics dropped its first-ever color-changing bath bomb and for Valentine's Day 2025, Lush's lineup includes a color-changing shower gel. The limited-edition Cherry Pop shower gel is a vegan-friendly bathing product that goes from dark green to cherry red when poured into the palm, providing a sensorial in-shower experience that also serves as a reminder to embrace life's many surprises.
The benefit-packed shower gel features ingredients like vitamin-rich fruit juice, soothing and conditioning agave, naturally antimicrobial cinnamon, moisturizing almond and palm-free glycerine.
Fans of all things cherry-fragranced will find other products they'll love in Lush’s Valentine’s Day Collection 2025, ranging from the Love Burger bath bomb to Cherry On Top soap.
