OK, you ask, what the heck is THAT?
That, my friends, is a LUSH Emotibomb. For when you have partied to hearty and need to wake up and rejoin the living, as in *today*. This Morning. An "emotibomb" is something that you put on the floor of your shower, turn on the water to a temperature that is as hot as you can stand it, and wait for the aromas to rise up and clear your head. Seriously. It supposedly works to clear a hangover. Contains fennel (brings back focus and concentration), peppermint (reduces pain and mental fatigue), and sweet wild orange.
Hangovers not an issue for you? Well, do you have any young men in their 20's who you are trying to find a little stocking stuffer for? Mmmmm? Check it out. It is called the "Too Drunk Emotibomb" by Lush Cosmetics. You can get it for $4.50 at Lush or on Amazon.com. I am not trying to promote drunkeness in any way. But we all know young men who occasionally over indulge, and wake up to regret it. This could help. Heck, it would probably be great for someone with a bad head cold too.
Here is another emotibomb for the guy who has a hard time getting going in the morning.
Here is how Lush describes this product: "If you need to wake up in the morning, try this reviving Emotibomb called "Up You Gets". Its lime, lemon and grapefruit oils jolt life back into you on the days when you can't get moving. There isn't anything that works better than this. Nothing legal anyway".
Those guys in their 20's can be darn tough to buy for. Don't worry. If you go to Lush, you will find all sorts of ideas for young men. Here are some of my favorite products.
The Olive Branch shower gel is the perfect gift for the stressed out young executive. Here is how Lush describes it:
"If your body is beaten by the rigours of the rat race, accept an olive branch. The Olive Branch has a welcoming warmth to it, with organic olive oil to soften your skin, an infusion of vine leaves, sea salt and the fresh juice of mandarins."
I feel relaxed already.
Or how about this product? The name alone is bound to get a reaction.
This shower gel contains antioxidant wheatgrass juice, and citrus oils, which the company promises will bring sunshine to your days again.
"The fresh, earthy scent wakes up your mind and smells like a freshly mown lawn in spring time". What college guy wouldn't love that? Or any guy for that matter? I bought six of them to give the young guys in my family!
What gifts have you found to be a big hit with the young men in your life? Aside from expensive electronic items!

Thanks for these great ideas! I was planning to go look for stocking stuffers for hubby today and now I know where to look. We installed a steam shower this summer during a huge renovation and I can just imagine how fab the emotibombs will be with the steam.

Great to know. I had no idea. Those are some really neat gift ideas. Sometimes I don’t take the time to try a lot of new things, then again I can’t usually hang out at the Lush counter while I’m working. LOL!

Wonder if these are in stores as time for shipping is getting really, really short? Love the idea, tho. Blogland is full of such interesting information. Thanks!
We venture forth to the mall today – sigh – and I’d rather be going to an antiques or junk store. Will also mail DS1’s quilt to the postal service and will wish for an armed guard to escort it safely to its destination.
Hugs!

I wonder if those emotibombs would work if you hadn’t indulged the night before. I could sure use something to get me going in the morning.

Funny! The salon where my daughter works sells a line of men’s grooming essentials called Sh*t, Shower and Shave. It includes “secret weapon” deodorizer drops for…ahem…the bathroom as well 🙂

Holy cow! I just went on the LUSH site and ordered some of the hangover thingies (great for my nephews), and some of the lushious bath bombs (super for my preggo daughter and stressed out daughter-in-law). I am hoping beyond hope that they will get here in time for Christmas.

I have lots of young men to buy gifts for. We went to Trader Joe’s today to get a gift card for DH’s nephew. Nephew is a vegetarian and a bit particular. We thought he would find fun food items here. I also tend to buy sweaters for the guys. Thanks for these wonderful ideas!
