The Lush x KATSEYE collaboration launch coincides with KATSEYE’s highly anticipated second EP BEAUTIFUL CHAOS, and shares personality-packed products that champion individuality, sisterhood and self-expression.
The Lush x KATSEYE Bath Bomb boasts a marbled gemstone design that dissolves into purple foam and shares the alluring scent of fruity davana and bunchu oils, plus benzoin resin for nostalgic, bubblegum-like sweetness. Like the limited-edition bath bomb, six collectible soaps feature KATSEYE’s iconic logo, each representing a different member of the girl group and sharing a unique scent and color story. The Dual Cherry Soap, for example, captures the look and scent of key lime pie, while the Dream Anchor Soap integrates Lush's fan-favorite The Comforter fragrance.
The Lush x KATSEYE collaborations will be available in UK and Ireland shops and online.
