Have you heard of Lush? If you haven't, it's truly one of my most favorite stores to stop and pick up personal care products like lotion, body wash and those fun bath bombs. They are handmade and contain organic items.
The one thing I don't love is the price. Their products are rather expensive so it's truly a splurge. Well, if you want to have Lush-type soaps but made at home, this rainbow soap recipe is for you! These would make great gifts throughout the year too!
