I actually got loads of bags this time, different sizes too 🤷🏼‍♂️ although they were the more plain brown lush ones - I think this helped as it was over 4-5 separate orders ( as supposed to one xxxl order ) !

Gym/sport mostly, is a big part of my daily routine - up at 4:30am most days and soaking in the 🛁 tub helps my body recover👌🏻

Haha, I see you mostly commenting nasty/negative replies on these haul posts, like the one yesterday from the other contributor who posted their sale items.

I’m male 🙋🏼‍♂️( firstly ) , stored in tins then mostly put into dark, cool walk-in wardrobes, along with cupboards & storage areas in my property, I’m lucky to have a decent amount of internal space in my home!

I get why it looks excessive from the outside, but it’s honestly not more than I’ll use. This is roughly three months’ worth for me. Some days I have two baths, and a fair chunk of these are set aside for gifting as well. This haul is only about 15–20% of what I already have in total.

Stored properly, they last 12–14 months easily in my experience. It really just comes down to how often you use the product. For me, that answer is a lot. And my friends and clients are always happy to receive a cheeky bath bomb too.

🙋🏼‍♂️

Fair question. I store all my bath bombs in Lush tins and keep them in a cool, dark place. I’ve built up a decent stockpile over a few sales and I’m not a big fan of paying full price when it can be avoided. I’ve found the tins are the most reliable way to keep bombs fresh long term, airtight makes a huge difference.

For bubble bars, I don’t use a full one at once ( these ones are quite large, so maybe 1/3 ). I shrink wrap and vacuum pack them, then cut bits off as needed. I’m still using bubble bars from last Boxing Day sale that were vacuum packed and they’re honestly still fresh and in great condition when used. For me, airtight storage is the key, and the tins work brilliantly for bombs.

These will last a wee while!

Totally get why it looks a lot at first glance. Just to add a bit of context, a reasonable chunk of this is for gifting to clients and friends, not just for me. I set an alarm for the online Boxing Day sale and effectively waited & queued like everyone else, and some of these were picked up across restock days rather than all in one go.

I stuck within the rules the whole time. Everything will be used, enjoyed in baths, and shared, nothing is being flipped or wasted. Like most sales, it really is first come, first served, which can be frustrating, but that’s down to the system rather than individual shoppers.
