I have the same problem, if its any help the square tins are easier to open then the circular tins. Also try to only take half the tin with the product before I step in the shower seems to help- and drying the product off (air dry) before closing the tin helps too.

Maybe if we all write/email Lush they may improve the design? they sort of need to include a Lush leaver to open the tins really don't they?!

You mean like those mini double ended hook things that you turn to ping shoe polish boxes open? Now there's a thought!

I bought some stuff (about £20) worth and my gift bag (lucky dip) contained loads!

A small bottle of snow fairy (*shudder* - I do hate this stuff, so I mailed it to my sister)
A santa bath bomb - Satsumo Santa
ruby red slippers bubble bar
A little white bath bomb Ifit doesn't have lumps of cocoa butter that 'll be So White , if it dioes then it will be Butter Ball (So White is appley smelling)
White gloop in a plastic box Snow Showers
A purple bath bomb with stars in it Jingle Spells
A large white one with confetti in it Hmm sounds like Wedding Day if it has actual confetti in it (if its weddingday it will smell of ylang ylng/florally, although I'd be surprised if it was as they were discontinued ages ago ) if it smells like bucks fizz and more party popper type bits or stars then its either a supernova (they're supposed to be pink but the last few batches have been more white) or Xmas party.
An unidentified red bubble bar, does it have a face and smell slightly spicy (kind of cimmanooy - that's the davana oil) - if so that'll be no name (although different shops called them by different names - it was Merlin Rouge here). Flosty Gritter is pink and glittery.





Really happy with that - even though I don't know what half of it is

Think I've identified the mystery products for you.

I'm gutted, Its a 80+ mile round trip to my nearest LUSH store and the weather is making me ratty because I cant get there. Did an online order on boxing day but the deal isnt as good . I need more LUSH !!!!

I got my mum to go instore with a list i had emailed her to get me... total spent was £21.95... she brought it over to me today... a little bag 9which i presumed was my free bag, and a big bag...... couldn't believe it when i realised the big bag was the free one... got more than i actually bought free!!!! :j

I am quite new to lush so am not sure what a few things are :rolleyes: But i got:

Vanilla fountain Ballistic

Butterball Ballistic (I think?)

Happy Hippy shower gel (250g)

pot of strawberry Santa

200g (I weighed it because it was so big!) of a pink soap that smells gorgeous!!!! - don't know what it is!

200g of a browny/amber soap - don't know what it is?

a big flat pink tablet (chalky like a bath bomb) thats covered in glitter and has a star in middle and says 'double fast luck' (i think?!) around it?!

a Huge purple ballistic with stars on it

a small ballistic slightly pink with little sugary looking pink chunks on top? - smells beautiful!

supanova ballistic

Extremely pleased with the free bits, even if I don't know what some of them are!!!! would be interested to know about how much worth of stuff is there too, but i can't see some of the stuff on the site, to tally it up :rolleyes:
If there are any lush experts out there who know prices off by heart or what my unidentified things are that would be a great help thanks!!!! lol :rotfl:

Btw, in case anyone was wondering.... this was from the Leicester store! :T

200g (I weighed it because it was so big!) of a pink soap that smells gorgeous!!!! - don't know what it is! If its opaque oink and very sweet smeling then its Rockstar if its more a clear pink and smells more like jelly beans then its Angle Delight (one of the xmas sopas)

200g of a browny/amber soap - don't know what it is? I'm guessing Karma - if its smells of patchouli /orange , if its more rose and oregano (think pizza herb lol) then its 13 unlucky for dirt.

a big flat pink tablet (chalky like a bath bomb) thats covered in glitter and has a star in middle and says 'double fast luck' (i think?!) around it?! This is a shower emotibomb , you put it in the bottom of your shower tray and as the water hits it releases the essential oils (basically its a more concentrated ballistic for the shower) and with the steam etc you're getting a gorgeous aromatherapy treatment. Double fast luck is karma scented (so hopefully you'll be able to identify the mystery soap )

a Huge purple ballistic with stars on it - Jingle Spells - one of the best things ever for a hangover.

a small ballistic slightly pink with little sugary looking pink chunks on top? - smells beautiful! Hmm bit stuck here - sounds like Cinders but that's more yellow although may have had colour transfer and the popping candy in it may have leached it colour.

I've hopefully identified some of the mystery items in the quotey bit - I'm not quite up to speed with the new prices yet after the VAT change (forgot to take home the new Lush times ) but you've more than got your £20 worth.

Oh and the easiest way to open the round tiins (the lip balm tins can be a bit tricky as well a t times ) is to put it in the palm of your hand and then with the other palm, twist (hope that makes sense) rather than using thumb and finger to unscrew it .

Went to Leeds store and picked up a goody bag on Friday. It contained:
A Bunty gift set,
A Snow fairy gift set,
A candy cane bubble bar,
A Ruby red slippers bubble bar,
250g Snow fairy.

Very happy, as I am guaranteed to use everything in there

tramp shower gel small one
limited edition ghost shower gel -big one
supernova

pretty happy with that

pesky_princess

Thanks very much for that professoryaffle!!!!! :T

I have now established thanks to your help that the browny soap is definately karma as it smells the same as the emotibomb (would never have known that the emotibomb went in the shower so thanks for that!!!!)

the ballistic is cinders as once you mentioned that, I googled for a pic of it, and its the same, and it is quite yellowy - i was looking at it in a funny light last night!!!!

still not sure on the soap.... as with both the smells you described.... i can't make up my mind!!! lol its bright pink... i am addicted to the smell.... its is so lovely!!!!! lol

re the jingle spells.... thats gorgeous too.... and i can't believe how big it is compared to the other ballistics!!!! lol

Thanks ever so much for your help.... I am so pleased with my freebies!!!! I have wrapped everything up now, to keep it fresh, and its in nice tins in my bedroom!

I am a fan now of porridge soap which is one of the things i bought.... ooooo its lovely and makes my hands lovely and soft.... love it!!!

i am truly a new Lush convert now....... even thinking of sending my mum in the shop again for another shop to get another goodie bag!!!! :rotfl:

*** editted to add.... I have now emailed my mum a list of stuff to get me on her lunch hour next week before the grab bag offer runs out!

have put on the list and looking forward to trying:

You snap the whip body butter bar
Bathos bubble bar
up you gets emotibomb
you've been mangoed bath melt
Candy fluff powder

Really excited about the you snap the whip bar, as i have seen that it smells just like sweetie pie shower jelly - which i have fallen in love with!!!! lol

I am certainly NOT 'moneysaving' lately with how much I have been spending at Lush! did an online order also just after christmas!

hey ho! lol
