These DIY bath bombs are similar to the popular avolush bombs sold at Lush but cost a fraction of the price when made at home. Acocados are so popular as a superfood so why not soak yourself in them too. You can grab the full DIY lush dupe Bath Bomb tutorial here.

Lush is a cosmetics giant with some interesting LUSH facts – One of Lush’s 6 co-founders, Mo Constantine, apparently invented the world’s first bath bomb in 1989. Lush has been questioned of its overuse of glitter, which is now very unpopular with environmental groups but did you know the glitter used in Lush products are PET free – They state that they use food grade lustres and seaweed-based glitters.

There are 900 stores worldwide in 49 countries, 250 of which are in the USA, that is a lot of product to be made. Did you know all their products are handmade in Poole England? Their products are 100% vegetarian, 85% vegan, against animal testing and completely handmade.

Lush are also pretty strict on their copyright rules, so make sure if you are making your own lush copies or hacks be sure to choose an original name and add a little touch of your own to make them unique.

Apple Pie Dessert Soap Recipe With Whipped Soap Topping

This Apple Tart Soap is such a sweet little soap-making project, and I love how it turns a simple melt and pour soap base into something that looks almost good enough to eat. The idea of using clear glycerin soap with apple pie fragrance oil, cinnamon, and a whipped white soap topping gives this project a warm, cozy dessert-inspired feel without making it overly complicated.

What makes this project especially appealing is how beginner-friendly it is. Melt and pour soap is one of the easiest ways to get started with handmade soap, and this recipe keeps the ingredient list short while still creating a finished soap that feels fun and gift-worthy. The whipped topping detail is a clever touch because it instantly makes the soap look more like a tiny apple tart or bakery-style treat.

I also really like the packaging potential for this project. These soaps would look beautiful wrapped in clear cello, brown kraft paper, or a small handmade gift box. Adding dried apple rounds, a cinnamon stick, twine, or a rustic gift tag would make them perfect for fall gifts, teacher presents, craft stalls, Christmas hampers, or homemade bath and body gift baskets.

Because the soap uses cinnamon and fragrance oil, I would treat this as more of a novelty hand soap or decorative gift soap rather than something for very sensitive skin. As with all handmade bath and body projects, it is a good idea to use skin-safe fragrance oils and soap-safe colorants where possible.

Overall, this is a charming little melt and pour soap project with lots of handmade gift appeal. It is simple enough for beginners, pretty enough for gifting, and has that cozy apple pie scent that makes it especially lovely for autumn, holiday markets, and homemade Christmas gifts.
