People Swear This Lush Holiday Product Can Actually Help You Fall Asleep

Lush

The holidays are arguably the best time of the year, but it can be a super stressful season for many, what with all the travel and the shopping and the parties. When it's finally time to hit the hay, it's impossible to fall asleep without worrying what's left to be done. Thankfully, our friends at Lush have a solution, and it's not their cult-favorite Sleepy lotion. Lush's Christmas Eve Bubble Bar claims it can turn those restless holiday evenings into dreamy, blissful sleep after only a few minutes in the tub. Insomniacs and stressed sleepers, rejoice!

The story behind the Christmas Eve Bubble Bar is that it was intended to help calm excitement and soothe anxiety the night before Christmas, when presents and Santa Claus are at the top of your mind.

The seasonal bubble bar — which is meant to be crumbled under running water to create mountains of bubbles — is packed with slumber-inducing ingredients like jasmine absolute and ylang ylang oil, as well as mineral-rich seaweed powder to make your skin feel super soft. You won't be able to help but feel super zen, surrounded by pillows of soft blue bubbles and the intoxicating scent of flowers.

If you don't believe that this bubble bar can actually put you to sleep, just ask its loyal and fanatical followers, including Lush's Director of Manufacturing in North America, Graham Brown. Brown tells me that he's in charge of putting his four-year old daughter to bed every night and will use "anything that can get her to sleep," and he says that the Christmas Eve Bubble Bar "is really good at it."

On Lush's website, 100 percent of users recommend the product. One reviewer even describes the Christmas Eve Bubble Bar as heavenly, saying, "the bubbles are plentiful, the scent surrounds you like a warm blanket, and you slip off to a blissful place!" And if that wasn't enough, they also noted that they buy the product in bulk for year-round use.
