Becky Buys: “Fun” by Lush

New by Lush is a wacky multipurpose and entertaining product which is guaranteed to be making a splash with Christmas approaching.

Fun looks like a throwback to our childhoods, and at first glance could be passed off as a stick of plasticine. The genius of this malleable product is that it is actually can be used for four purposes; as body wash, as shampoo, and bubble bath and if you like, for sculpting into shapes when you are taking a long soak.

Costing £5 a stick, this novel invention comes in five vibrant scented colours guaranteed to beat bath time boredom.

Yes, that is my attempt at a bunny believe it or not

“I got this product a few weeks ago as I thought it would save space in my suitcase on holiday,” Cosmopolitan reader Sara Collins writes, “seriously though, how can anyone not love a shampoo you can also use as playdoh. My kids who usually hate bath time where desperate to try this out. I'll definitely be stocking up on these as they are the perfect stocking fillers.”

The products is also ethically made with 2.5% of sales going towards FUNd which creates safe places for children to play outside in Japan. Fun is also preservative free and made in a biodegradable wrapper.

There must be a downside to such an amazing product? Sadly it takes quite a lot of effort to lather up a foam, so when being used as bubble bath; don't expect heaps and heaps of bubbles. When tested not all of the product dissolved properly into the tub and there were some residue chunks when the bath was drained. Similarly when being used as shampoo, the lack of lather results in having to scrub the head harder than usual in order to prevent being left with green chunks in your hair for the rest of the day.

However you will be seduced by the powerful aromas by these exciting products and are definitely worth a try, especially if you have kids.
