Girl turns pink for three days after misusing Lush bath product

You're likely familiar with Lush products - or at least have caught a whiff as you walked by one of their stores.

The brand is well-known for their brightly coloured, heavily scented and kookily-named bath and beauty goodies that are great for pampering session at home.

One Lush fan however had an unexpected result when one of their bath products turned her a mildly alarming shade of pink.

Abi Henston tweeted Lush this photo of the aftermath.

The Lush team were of course quick respond to a pressing problem like that, tweeting the following.

Abi spoke to Pretty52 after the photo went viral and explained what happened.

"The product used was called 'Razzle Dazzle' and it is not a bath bomb! The correct procedure is that you are supposed to dilute it into water but I thought it was a soap and rubbed it all over my body and face (explains why my hair is dry)".

The Lush website describes Razzle Dazzle as a bath oil, to be dissolved in warm water. It is currently sold out if you were hoping to give to a whirl.

Abi eventually de-pinkified - after three days and several baths. She also says she's still a Lush fan - she just wishes she had been more informed.

"I misused this product! I love LUSH and will still continue to shop there. It's just a shame that I wasn't told how to correctly use the product when purchasing! A very helpful friend of mine works at Lush and helped me remove all the pink stain with lemon juice, olive oil + a gritty face wash!"
