[Lush](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/book-a-bath-sticky-dates) Cosmetics newly unveiled a collection of [Shrek](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lush-1)-themed body care products and now, fans have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the world that inspired them with the Book a Swamp experience. Bathing in a real-life swamp would be overwhelmingly unpleasant and devoid of any relaxation, yet Lush's elevated experience is serene, skin-soothing and a treat for the senses.

Upon arriving, guests are greeted by Lush's "swamp experts" who prepare a soothing bath experience that's part mud and part oakmoss and seaweed. Guests will get to try products from the [Lush x Shrek collaboration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colourpop-x-dreamworks-shrek) and an Onion carriage soap exclusive to the experience.

This one-of-a-kind spa experience can only be had at the Edinburgh Lush Spa, and it's an 18+ treatment only for adult fans of Lush and the iconic animated movie.
