Crumble under running warm water as you fill the tub. The stronger your water pressure, the more bubbles you will make; we encourage experimentation for best results. To get the most out of your bubble bars, keep them in a cool, dry place.

A bar of bubbly chocolate

Spoil yourself with a chocolate-toffee bar! The LUSH Ma Bar is a bubble bar of two halves: cocoa and honey toffee. In the center, there's a lump of brown sugar, which melts in the bath water. It was created for Mother's Day a few years ago and became so popular that we simply couldn't retire it. And despite what might pop into your mind, the Ma Bar gets its name from its origins (it's a bar for your Ma). Crumble under running water for masses of sweet, chocolatey bubbles.

Features

  • Honey I Washed the Kids fragrance: You know it. You love it. Now you can bathe in it.
  • Just a spoonful of sugar: Each Ma Bar is topped with a cube of real brown sugar. How sweet!
  • A buzz-worthy combo: Don't sink into your Ma Bar bath without a chunk of Honey I Washed the Kids soap or It's Raining Men shower gel.

This bubble bar is VERY addicting, I cannot fathom taking a bath with out this!
I love this product so much I I store my Ma Bars in a glass jar on my vanity so I know when I'm low and need to re order more.

I don't splurge on myself at all, I don't pay someone to do my hair, nails or get pedicures. I have never spent more than $10.00 for a purse, nor have I spent more than $30.00 for a pair of good shoes.
This is my only luxury.

The smell is AMAZING!! For those thinking about buying this, let me tell you my thoughts on this. Keep in mind that my reviews are coming from a person who was granted the gift of heightened sense of smell during my last pregnancy that didn't go away.

I don't like chocolate scented products, this is more light and airy very appealing.
The sent is heavenly, soft and sensual. We have a garden tub and I am going to share with you
my heavenly bath recipe for all of you who have never used this product.

The Perfect Lush Bath.
1/2 a Ma Bar (Break down center so you get both the brown and the white colors)
1 Butter ball
1 Wash cloth lathered w/ Honey I washed the kids soap.

Add warm water and even a partner, now just relax and feel your body absorb the wonderful moisturizing bath. This is sure to delight the sense!! Trust me!!

The sent lingers, Bathroom smells wonderful for days, the water does look like diluted tea.... I don't think water turning a color a concern when using any Lush products.

I *really* wanted to love this and was very disappointed. The bar itself smells almost exactly like Honey I Washed the Kids - so delicious! However, it was incredibly small compared to other bubble bars I've purchased in the past. Also, the gorgeous smell of the bar completely disappeared once I crumbled in into the water. It smelled like nothing. :( It also turned the water a disgusting murky brown color - NOT pleasant to soak in. The saving grace of the bar was that it made the water super soft and silky, and my skin was very smooth afterward. However, I won't be getting this again.

      Comments about Ma Bar Bubble Bar:

      I'm on the fence about this product. On one hand, I love when Lush pulls out all the stops on their bath products - color, smells, glitter, and the whole shebang - but on the other hand, I wasn't looking for all that when I took a bath with the Ma Bar. It gave me a perfect, relaxing bath with a light chocolate candy smell and rich bubbles (I used the whole bar because I live in an area with very hard water.) It left my skin super smooth, but left no scent. If I were looking to have a "fun" bath for in most lush bath bombs and bubble bars, this would have underwhelmed me, but for an average, everyday bubble bath, Ma Bar was efficient.

      Didn't Have Much of a Smell

            Comments about Ma Bar Bubble Bar:

            This was my first Lush bubble bar & I am kind of underwhelmed. I've used several bath bombs before but was looking for something different & the description of this bar sounded amazing! When I smelled it in the store, it didn't seem to have much of a fragrance but I didn't let that deter me because with all of the different smells in the store I go into sensory overload & can't really smell things until I get them home and isolated (weird?! oh well). Well, I got home and it still didn't smell like anything, boo. I broke the bar in half and crumbled it under the running bath water & the bubbles began! Half of the bar yileded a good amount of bubbles, but they faded away in about 15 minutes. During all of this time I sadly never smelled chocolate or much of anything. The bath was very calming & my skin did feel smoother afterward, so in that regards it was okay & worth 3 stars, but it wasn't anything too special that I'd hurry to repurchase or recommend.

              A Lush worker recommended I use this with the bath bomb, Honeybee, and I'm glad I listened! It was a great bath combo, and the bubbles and smell worked great with Honeybee's smells and skin softening. I don't know how it is on its own, but with Honeybee? It's wonderful.

                Although I prefer bath bombs over bubble bars, I fell in love with this scent and had to try it. Although it was somewhat difficult for me to cut, I cut it in half and got two baths out of it. It smelled perfect with my Honey I Washed The Kids soap.

                I bought this bar and was so excited to use it because it had that brown sugar cube and was said to smell like chocolate... I was extremely disappointed with the end result. Unlike Lush's other bubble bars this one was incredibly hard to break down in the bath. I literally had to scrape it against the bottom of my tub like a piece of chalk and even that did not cause the bar to break down. When I finally did figure out how to get the bar to dissolve the fluffy bubbles only lasted 15 minutes when all my other Lush bubble bars lasted 30 minutes or more! Absolutely disappointed in this one and I won't be getting it again.

                Comments about Ma Bar Bubble Bar:

                I bought this at the recommendation of one of the employees at the LUSH I went to, and it smells amazing. It smells like it says in the description, and since the two sides smell different, I just used the whole bar. I have a a large claw foot tub, so I it didn't cover my whole bath with bubbles, but the water was tinted a light brown and it smelled amazing the whole time I was in the bath, and even lingered in the bathroom for a while afterwards.

                I wasn't expecting to pick Ma Bar up from Lush as my first bubble bar, but I loved the scent at the store and passed up the coveted Comforter bar to give this a try. I figured it would last a couple baths and would mix well and add bubbles to the bath bombs and melt I picked up too. I broke it up into four pieces beforehand to split for future use as recommended by the girls in the store (and nearly every review and youTube haul I saw online) and then broke that up under the running tap. Figured there'd be bubbles upon bubbles upon bubbles.... wrong. I was SO disappointed. I ended up using the entire bar and barely got ANY bubbles at all out of it. What I did get was gone in under five minutes. I was so bummed! :(

                Gets three stars for at least smelling nice, but since I mixed it with Butterball I can't even say that was 100%.

                  When I first opened the packaging I thought I might have made a poor choice, the scent was overpowering. However, once in the tub it was less potent and I learned to like it. I found that using just half isn't enough to create the bubbles I wanted so I used the whole thing, all in all it created a very nice bath, very moisturizing.

                  This bubble bar smells so good and yummy! It makes my dry skin feel so smooth too! I wish it was a different color, just because brown bath water is kind of icky.(I personally got used to it, because I spray tan, so I know sometimes they peel off in the tub) I love and adore everything else about this product though. DO NOT DISCONTINUE!

                        I just used this product and I am absolutely in love! It met all of my expectations. I chopped this bar in half so I'd get more use from it, and just crumbled it under the warm bath water as instructed and the bubbles just flowed! I was very surprised with how many just half a bar could make. I could smell the yummy chocolatey scent the whole time, and there were still plenty of bubbles left even after I was done with the bath. My skin feels so very smooth right now and it smells exactly like the bar! The color of the water didn't bother me because it just smelled so delectable, and the mountains of bubbles covered it all up anyway, haha! I couldn't be happier with this bubble bar. It's one of my new favorites. I'm definitely going to buy this again and again!

                          I received this in a christmas bundle and finally used it. All I can say is that it was the most luxurious bubble bath I have ever had. I absolutely loved this product and would recommend it to anyone. I have dry skin and it definitely helped smooth, soften, and nourish my skin. I was even able to shave without using any shave cream because it created such a nice protectant of oils on my skin.

                            My favorite bubble bar so far. The scent was probably the number 1 reason; the bubbles kept the scent. I used half and there were plenty of bubbles. This bar was not as moisturizing as some I have used, but I use bath bombs or melts for that.

                              First, let me say that my skin is so sensitive that everything I use is either a baby product or free of all extras! This includes, shampoo, soap, laundry detergent, etc. So trying this was not easy for me! I buy Lush products for all my "young" family members as a "fun" gift! This time, I spoiled myself and I feel terrific! The smell is sooooo delicious! The way it bubbles and how smooth and silky it is...oooh la la! I only used half of the bar and it was just perfect! Best product and friendly to sensitive skin! Lush has just added a new customer!

                              This was the first time I had taken a bath in probably a decade. Wow, was it worth the wait...

                              Despite the appearance of the water, this bath bar was a dream! The water felt so rich and silky, and the bubbles were plentiful. My skin felt so smooth after the bath and my bathroom smelled wonderful. You really feel nice and clean for a long time after - I woke up the next day and only needed to wash up before going to work in the morning; I usually take a full shower. I used the whole bar, which is what I would recommend doing - it'll make for a deliciously long bath!

                              I really really want to give this 5 stars. It's got a great smell, the bubbles are great and last really long. It should have gotten 5 stars. BUT I cannot get over the fact that when I went to get in I saw that the water was this ugly brown color and with the little pieces of bar floating around... It honestly looked like sewage had backed up into my bath tub.
