The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 29 September 2020 14 Comments

My latest shower gel want: Roasting Chestnuts On An Open Fire, out now at Lush UK. I'm sure it's on its way to the US, right? Right? "This marzipan scented Christmas shower gel will calm skin with soothing oat milk and chestnut purée, and help to make the season bright."

    Not sure how roasting chestnuts equates to marzipan, but I do love marzipan.

      agree, it sounds odd, but if there’s marzipan involved then I’m in. 😉

    I questioned that also? I wonder if this scent will replace Yog Nog shower gel? I loved the scent but it separated horribly! And bring back Angel Cake!! Marzipan seems more Angel Cake to me.

      Oh, they still have Yog Nog in stock though!

        Thanks. I’ll have to see if they fixed the separation issue. It looked curdled and nasty and very difficult to re-shake. I guess it was the “maple water” not combining with the other ingredients.
        But gosh, it smelled divine?
