BEAUTY fans have been left raging as a well-loved high street store launches it’s Easter range, with some calling the prices “mental”.
Lush is one of the UK’s favourite beauty stores, with its natural ingredients and themed products making it stand out from many other businesses.
However, it is not the cheapest brand on the high street, and it’s latest product launch has left shoppers questioning whether it will be the next business to close its doors for good.
Included in the new range is the Easter Bunny bath bomb, which is priced at £10.
The 240g bath bomb is made from lemon, bergamot and grapefruit oils and promises to bring “juicy freshness”, to your bath.
However, the bath bomb is only a one time use product, which has led some shoppers to deem it far too expensive.
Also included in the collection is the Eggs on Legs bath bomb, which is the shape of an egg cup, and is priced at £12.
One shopper, clearly impressed by the range, recently shared a picture of some of the products to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group.
Captioning the post, she said: “Easter has arrived at Lush!” alongside a heart eyes emoji.
The post soon grabbed the attention of Facebook group members and racked up hundreds of comments.
One person said: “I love Lush but the prices are getting absolutely mental
“I mean £10-13 for a bath bomb that you use once, wow.”
A second person said: “Who is paying a tenner for a bath bomb.”
A third added: “I can see them being the next ones off the high street with those prices.”
A fourth chimed in: “How are they even still in business these days with those prices?
“It used to cost a bit more than other shops but that’s ridiculous.”
Lush superfan, beauty blogger, and freelance digital writer Beth Mahoney revealed her thoughts on the lavender Lush bath bomb. She explained:
“There’s no arguing with how fresh the Lush products are, and how many natural ingredients, like swathes of dried lavender, are packed into their products.
“It’s also important to understand that the Lush bath bomb range is designed to create an immersive bath time experience.
“Instead of being just another basic bath fizzer, the Lush bath bombs are made with quirky, unique and unexpected features, from dissolvable eco-friendly glitter and wheels that actually roll to hidden centres and lashings of dried flowers.
“I’ve tried out a lot of Lush bath bombs and the Lavender Deep Sleep bath bomb is one of my absolute favourites. Yes, it makes a little bit of a mess when it spurts lavender throughout your bathtub, but it smells totally divine and leaves you feeling relaxed and calm.
“For removing bath bomb remnants from my bathtub I either wash them down the drain – after all, everything used in these products is drain-friendly – or allow larger items (like petals) to be caught in my drain catcher, ready to be disposed of.
“If you’re not a fan of the mess that bath bombs can sometimes create, a really great hack for preventing bath bombs that expel ingredients into the bathtub from making a mess or clogging the drain is to pop them in a mess bag before dropping them in the water.”
However, the range does still include plenty of cheaper items, such as the Cheep Cheep bath bomb, which is £3.50, and the Follow the White Rabbit bath bomb, which costs £4.50.
Sharing their love for the Lush products, one person said: “I need a trip to Lush.”
Tagging a friend, a second person said: “We need to go look!”
A third added: “How cute are these!”

SHOPPERS have spotted an absolute bargain dupe for Sol De Janeiro’s viral body sprays at Tesco.
Happy customers say the Skin Saints range of body mists ‘smell amazing’ – and even better, they cost just £4.75 each.
The Skin Saints 250ml bottles are a mega £20 cheaper than the real thing, so there’s no reason not to stock up on one of every scent.
There are four gorgeous fragrances to collect: Golden Hour, Island Breeze, Sweet Haze or Summer Soleil.
Golden Hour features fresh ylang-ylang with sweet rose & jasmine notes.
Island Breeze features warm cedarwood with rich orange blossom notes.
Sweet Haze features sweet vanilla and fresh jasmine notes.
While Summer Soleil features caramel and pistachio notes, similar to Sol De Janeiro’s hugely popular Cheirosa 62.
And not only do the body mists smell good, they do good too.
Each one is infused with Vitamin E and Hyaluronic acid, for an added skin-boost.
An eagle-eyed Facebook user spied the dupes at their local Tesco branch and shared a snap online.
They posted to Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, where 2.6 million users come together to share deals, offers and money-saving tips.
The user snapped a picture of the products on shelves, and captioned it: “Rio De Janeiro dupes, Tesco.”
Group members were quick to hit the like button, and one person wrote: “The Blue body mist. Omg! They smell amazing!
“And so cheap!!! Will definitely be buying more!”
Here's everywhere you can nab dupes of Sol De Janeiro products, from the iconic mists all the way to body butters...

Sol De Janeiro body mists have skyrocketed in popularity over the past few years.
The Brazilian brand is stocked in leading retailers like Boots, SpaceNK, LookFantastic and John Lewis.
But the sprays aren’t cheap, so money-minded bargain hunters have been on the lookout for more affordable dupes.
Earlier this month, Aldi shoppers raced to their closest branch to grab their version of the trendy scent – saying it smells ‘exactly the same’.
While Primark also dropped its own iteration of the body mists, along with adorable travel-sized versions for those upcoming holidays.
And in February, shoppers raced to Home Bargains to pick up their dupe of the widely-loved Sol De Janeiro body oil.
SPURS-BOUND Mason Melia became the youngest-ever goalscorer for the Ireland Under-21s with a penalty in a friendly win over Hungary.
Jim Crawford’s side eased to victory in Murcia last night thanks to the 17-year-old’s history-making strike and two more from Brentford defender and debutant Conor McManus.
Gabor Jurek equalised for Hungary, who went in level at half-time, before the visitors asserted control after the break.
St Patrick’s Athletic forward Melia signed a deal in February to join Tottenham for around €1.9m at the beginning of 2026.
At 17 years, six months and two days old, he takes over as youngest scorer by beating the previous record set by former Tottenham forward Troy Parrott by exactly a month.
Elsewhere in Irish football news, the WNT will face the USA in two friendlies this summer.
Carla Ward’s team will come up against the world’s No 1-ranked side in Denver on Thursday, June 26 and again in Cincinnati three days later.
The two countries have played each other 15 times in the past, most recently in April 2023 in preparation for Ireland’s first appearance at a World Cup, when America won 1-0 and 2-0.
Ward said: “We are looking forward to these two games against the best international team in women’s football as they will provide the kind of challenge that we need to expose our players to more often.”
The double-header will come at the end of the Nations League groups.
Ireland face Greece next month home and away with Ward announcing her squad this morning.
They wrap up their group campaign with games away to Turkey and at home to Slovenia.
