Oh my lord, I cannot contain myself… So I totally had a plan about what I was going to write about this week, but I can’t keep to a set plan when I have news…THE ROSE JAM SHOWER GEL IS IN EXISTENCE! You cannot understand my excitement without me telling you that the Rose Jam scent from LUSH is literally my favorite scent on the planet. For my nose, nothing can beat it. That is a pretty serious statement, but I am sticking to it unless LUSH comes up with another amazing masterpiece, but it would be pretty hard to trump this baby.
So I remember back to the time when Rose Jam wasn’t part of my life. I was looking at the LUSH UK website when I stumbled upon a product that wasn’t available in the US: the Rose Jam Bubbleroon. I love roses, I love bubbles, and I love macarons. This was sure to be the perfect product for me. I’m still amazed that I was able to prophesize the arrival of this product in the US. As soon as it came in, I tried to get to a LUSH store to see if I would indeed love it; well I did, and I do. Currently, I have three Rose Jam Bubbleroons in my clothing drawers, making my clothes smell like lemony sugared roses. What a scent!

As soon as I got on the rose jam craze, more products came out, and I seized them. There was Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner, a clever idea of making a moisturizing shower gel that leaves your skin feeling like you put on lotion right after you step out of the shower. Then came A Million Kisses, a bright red lip tint. And soon after Chou Chou…I Love You, the revolutionary toothy tabs (solid toothpaste). The rose scent is no longer just for elder ladies, no sirree. This is the new rose scent- a modern rose, fit for any woman of any age of any time.

In between starting and finishing this blog post, I happened to take a lovely Rose Jam Bubbleroon bath. I had almost forgotten just how wonderful the scent was. After softly crumbling the pink bubbleroon under the faucet, my tub was filled with rosey pink water (that is good for your skin) and beautiful bubbles. This product is a masterpiece. I was able to relax and just feel pampered. I highly recommend the Rose Jam Bubbleroon for any time that you need a little pick-me-up.
For the first time, I tried out my Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner. It has the exact same scent as the bubbleroon so it was the perfect addition to my bath. It is so moisturizing that I didn’t need to put on lotion after the bath. I even massaged some of it into my hair, and it smelled amazing for the rest of the day!
Then there is A Million Kisses which has the same Rose Jam scent. I absolutely adore a rich red lip color, and this definitely is that! I only have to put a little bit on to have a nice red lip tint. The tin is also really cute.
And finally, Chou Chou toothy tabs. First off, I should describe what toothy tabs are; they are little tabs (almost like Altoids) that you chew up between your teeth and then brush! They foam up just like regular toothpaste. I thought it would be really weird to have a rose and lemon tasting toothpaste, but it honestly is very refreshing! I don’t use them on a daily basis, but they are a fun break from the normal dental routine every once in awhile.
All in all, the Rose Jam scent is wonderful, and I am extremely excited that they have decided to put it into a shower gel. This is only a limited time product though, starting in late October, and it will be gone from the shelves by Christmas. I’m trying to organize a trip to a LUSH store as soon as possible so I can go see this majesty for myself. If you go on the website, it might shock you to look at the prices. But I’ll be the first to tell you that it is so worth it! The shower gels from LUSH last extremely long, since they are very concentrated and a little goes a very long way. I bought the biggest size of It’s Raining Men (the shower gel form of Honey I Washed the Kids soap) and it has lasted me for about a year and 4 months while using it basically every day. So even though you will end up spending $30 all at once for the biggest size of the shower gels, that price will be well worth it. Hopefully I’ll get the Rose Jam shower gel soon and tell you what it’s like!
Love,

Not a rose fan but perhaps this is something that would change my mind!
I admit I’m not a big fan of cosmetics, but those Bubbleroons and Toothy Tabs sound like really interesting products. I’ve never heard of anything like those before, and I’d definitely be willing to try those out!
Now I really want to smell Rose Jam for myself! I’m also really jealous that you were able to take a bath with the bubbleroon. I need to take a trip to LUSH. All of these products sound amazing. Thank you for enlightening me!
Okay that is it, you have broken me down, I have to order something from LUSH, it sounds so great, and with the dorm rooms smelling like old soup, this could be a really great change.
Even though you explained it very well and really left no ambiguity about your love for the Rose, I still really want to smell it! Great post!
I love hearing about brand new things that you enjoy, I think I might try some too!
