Your Father's Day Gift Is Sorted, Courtesy of Lush

08/06/2022 - 03:00 PM

Ah, Father's Day [1], the time of year when you remember how notoriously hard buying for your dad is. Well, this year you can put those beer-making kits and pairs of socks to one side in favour of a pamper — all thanks to Lush Cosmetics [2].

For 2022, Lush has gone all out to create some seriously entertaining bath and shower products with your dad (or the father figure in your life [3]) in mind.

This year, the collection consists of nine limited-edition items, with some returning favourites and other brand-spanking-new products. Our must haves include an adorable trophy-shaped No. 1 Dad Bubble Bar, a statement-making Big Moustache Soap, and a hilarious Superdad eye mask. Plus, Lush has a couple of thoughtful gift sets on offer if you can't decide which individual product to go for.

Lush maintains its commitment to sustainability with various initiatives across stores. If you do end up visiting a store to stock up on some Father's Day [4] goodies, you can take advantage of the Bring It Back scheme [5]. Simply bring back any full-size Lush plastic packaging to your local store to be recycled and you'll receive a 50p deposit to spend on your basket that day for each item returned.

And instead of using traditional wrapping paper to wrap your dad's gifts, why not try Lush's Knot Wrap? The wraps come in a wide variety of designs (with two limited-edition design for Father's Day, too) and can be reused. Once your Knot Wrap is in need of a refresh, you can go into your local store and return your preloved wrap to get 50 percent off a new one of the same size.

Get a closer look at each of the products ahead that your dad will no doubt adore come June 19. And if you don't celebrate the day, at least there are a bunch of super-fun bath bombs to pick up!

Lush Big Moustache Soap

Why would your dad ever use a regular bar of soap again when the Lush Big Moustache Soap [6] (£6) exists? This soap — which is inspired by Salvador Dalí's moustache, by the way — isn't just fun to look at; it's packed with great ingredients. It's formulated with charcoal for clarifying properties and old man's beard (usnea) — which is a type of lichen that grows on trees and is used in traditional medicine — to help with inflammation. It has a woody scent and is reminiscent of aftershave.

Lush Dirty Bath Bomb

What would a limited-edition Lush collection be without a classic bath bomb? Returning for 2022 is the Lush Dirty Bath Bomb [7] (£5). Made with Lush's much-loved Dirty scent, this bomb contains a wonderful-smelling blend of spearmint, sandalwood, tarragon, and lavender.

Lush Glitch Shower Gel

Lush Glitch Shower Gel [8] (£7-£23) just turned bog-standard shower gel from boring to bright, thanks to its lime-green hue. And it's not just the colour that's sure to wake even the sleepiest souls up in the morning: the fragrance is punchy, too. Made with lemongrass, lemon-balm tea, and lime juice, it's fair to say this is a super-refreshing and invigorating shower addition.

Lush No. 1 Dad Bubble Bar

OK, we're calling it, the Lush No. 1 Dad Bubble Bar [9] (£6) is the most adorable gift you can give your dad or father figure this year. Inspired by dads on sports day, this bubble bar is scented with Lush's Dirty fragrance. Simply crumble it under the running bath tap to create a blue-and-gold bath reserved for supportive dads only.

Lush Superdad Eye Pad

Possibly the most fun product out of the Lush Father's Day [10] collection is the Lush Superdad Eye Pad [11] (£6). This cooling gel eye mask is formulated with anti-inflammatory yerba mate (a South American plant) and soothing aloe vera to give superhero skin-care results. If your dad needs some persuading to have a pamper, consider this a gentle encouragement.

Lush Deep Blue Sea Gift Set

If your dad is known for an excuse to get away from everyone a pamper sesh to relax, look no further than the Lush Deep Blue Sea gift set [12] (£12). This sweet set contains a Dirty Bath Bomb and a Big Blue Bath Bomb wrapped in hand-dyed Nepalese lokta paper.

Lush Get (Sur)real! Gift Set

Inspired by Salvador Dalí's "The Persistence of Memory" (otherwise known as "Melting Clocks"), the Lush Get (Sur)real! gift set [13] (£25) is about as surreal as bathing gets. This fun set contains the Big Moustache Soap, the Glitch Shower Gel, and the New Shampoo Bar for a total shower overhaul.

Lush Gone Fishing Knot Wrap

Created by freelance designer Serge Seidlitz [14], the Lush Gone Fishing Knot Wrap [15] (£6) is so cool it will make you forget about traditional wrapping paper for good.

Lush Paint Box Knot Wrap

We also can't get enough of the Lush Paint Box Knot Wrap [16] (£5), designed by Joshua Davies. This Knot Wrap is sure to brighten up even the gloomiest of days.
