Win a Lush Gift Box

Win a Lush Gift Box

We Traveling Mamas love our getaways, but we love our giveaways, too. We’ve got a fantastic gift box to feature in our latest contest giveaway! The Art of Bathing gift box, by Lush, is packed full of those organic, fresh, handmade Lush bath products that make a soak in the tub feel like a weekend spa vacation. If you love spa trips but don’t have one scheduled, The Art of Bathing has the equivalent of 12 body soak treatments in one pretty box.

The Lush Art of Bathing gift box contains: Avobath, Haagenbath, Sex Bomb, Butterball, Big Blue and Supernova bath bombs, along with Hot Milk, Pop in the Bath (my kids’ favorite) Bathos, The Comforter (my fave!) and Ma Bar bubble bars. That’s a lot of fun in one gift box. Fans of Lush products – like the Traveling Mamas – know that the benefits of a good soak in great-smelling water does wonder for our tired spirits. Lush in particular, with its emphasis on fresh organic ingredients, is one of our favorite brands. Nothing can truly replace a real vacation away from the daily grind, but a pampering, luxury spa-like soak in the tub can come close. The Art of Bathing has a retail value of $86.95.

To enter this Lush contest giveaway, leave a comment below describing your favorite way to “get away from it all.” One winner will be chosen using a random number generator, so don’t worry if you’re not feeling prolific or creative. Contest is open to US residents only (it’s a shipping costs issue), and relatives of The Traveling Mamas may not enter. Contest giveaway closes Tuesday, May 26, at 6:00PM PST. This is a great gift; good luck!

    I like to read or browse the internet in the spare bedroom. Much fewer distractions and usually neater than the rest of the house.

  6. Tina says:

    If I’m feeling the need for some “me” time, I head to my favorite breakfast joint, order my fave greasy platter, and sit quietly in “my corner.” This way I can hear the murmur and feel the general company of people without having to actually interact. And what could possibly go wrong when there’s pipin’ hot food being served to you? :D

    reading a juicy romance novel while bathing in my favorite Lush products :)

    Curling up with a good book, writing in my journal or just hanging out with the family (as long as they are not whom I am trying to relax from :)

  9. Gena says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I like to relax on the couch with my sweetie unless he’s gone then, I grab a book and light some candles and just curl up on the couch.

  10. Denese says:

    I go running in the park by my house with my iPod on. I leave my cell phone in the car and just spend time focusing on breathing. Its glorious!

  12. Angie (Losing It and Loving It) says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    May sound silly but I like to mow the lawn LOL I put on my ipod and pay no attention to anything else, great calorie burn and nice weather.

    But I also like to watch Reality TV, that is my escape from the real world.

  13. Anna O says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I leave the kids with the husband and go wander around the thrift stores… I don’t even have to buy anything. Just the wandering is enough.

  14. Linda says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I take a lonnng bath complete with fragrant bath salts, fizzies, etc with low lights, a candle, the tv next to the tub, or my lappy with a movie, some ice water and wine.
    I do a facial in the tub, and let conditioner sit in my hair under a cap for the time I’m in there. Then finish off with a great shower and a sugar scrub :)
    When I finally open the door, I feel ready to face RL again!

    We’ve got a lot of woods around our area. Often my wife, kid and myself simply drive in the hills and look for wildlife. Kid’s getting to the age where he can walk around with me now (nearly 3 y/o) so it’s great to get out and “escape reality” with the family.

  17. Angela H says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I light some candles and go take a nice hot bath. Nothing more relaxing than that. Even though I don’t actually leave my house, it’s my favorite “getaway.”

    Thanks for the wonderful giveaway!!

  18. Jenny W says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    My favorite way to get away from it all is to get a good book that i haven’t read before, and read it in bed while drinking a cup of coffee. I can do this for hours. cold beer can be subsituted for coffee if needed :)

  19. Sharlene says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    A drive to either a great park or the beach. I love it when 20 minutes of driving can take me hundreds of miles away.

  20. Yvonne says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    A nice hot bath and something good to read!

  21. Globetrotting Bride says:

    A long soak in the tub really does the trick for me. If a few minutes i can just feel the day’s tension fade away.

    I’m lucky that I live near Disneyworld. That means when I need to relax I can just go to Magic Kingdom and get an ice cream on Mainstreet and sit and people watch with a view of the castle.

  24. Danielle Bougie says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    A long hot bath or going through all the little shops in a neighbouring town, Harrison Hot Springs. It makes me very happy to see all the lovely people that run those teeny stores, and I can always find the cutest little things.

  25. Kristy says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    Just getting to slow down once in a while. A good book or a long walk is enough of a getaway for me.

  26. Antoinette says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    Being together with my family without the stress of all I have to do at home is a great way for me to de-stress

  27. Lisa Rosendahl says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    Because I hardly ever have the time to do it – go for a loooong bike ride on a spring day, birds singing, sun shining, gentle wind blowing – me setting my own pace.

  28. Sally says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I either read a good book or I sing at the top of my lungs in my car. =]

    May 18, 2009 at

    A good book, soft music, a hot cup of chai/Earl Grey, and at least one (or two or three) kitties alseep on the blanket on my lap does it for me. That or a nice 1000-piece new Lego set and enough time to put it together–talk about Zen!

  35. Lisa says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I put on a movie or TV show that I know will make me crack up laughing. Comedy is my favorite tension reliever :-)

    May 18, 2009 at

    I take my dog, roxie to my favorite park and we go on a hike. When you reach the top, you overlook the entire park and there is a bench in between trees..i just sit there and let all my thoughts go away for that time period :)

  37. Laura says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I love watching shows on my DVR. Plus I feel a sense of accomplishment when I delete it after I’m finished!!

  38. Liz Scherer says:
    May 18, 2009 at

  44. Lesley says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    My favorite bathtime is, a wonderful Lush mask, with a great cocktail of lush bath product, some times I do the cocktail that I use when i go away on vacation so I can close my eyes and go back to the beach with my wonderful memories, and you can have 3-4 baths for the price of a tank of gas.

  45. Sara says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I do enjoy a relaxing bath. I also like to take a walk in the fresh warm sunshine!

  46. Laurel says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    My favorite way to “get away from it all” is to go on a nice nature walk! A hike in the woods, a walk along a stream, whatever, just outside!

  47. Tamara says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I love to drink hot cocoa from my pink mug and watch movies like Clueless, Mean Girls, Sydney White.

  48. Nichola says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    This is no joke, but my favorite thing is to soak in a LUSH bubble bath and read. Sometimes just smelling LUSH is a quick escape. This is great. I’m so excited I found your site!

  49. Stefanie says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I take a shower and use my lush ginger soap. After I dry off I rub Strawberry Feels Forever all over and dust with Vanilla Puff Powder. I then light some Yankee candles, sit in my comfy chair, listen to Bach’s Cello Suites, and sniff myself. Bliss! =)

  50. Danielle says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I go scrapbooking when I can…actually leave my house and do it! I like getting away from the kids and hubby but interacting with other gals and being creative…just fun!

  51. Dianna Dillon says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I go to the beach, with my chair, towel and a good book…Listening and smelling the ocean is a great way to getaway….

    I go to the desert in SE Oregon… I love to be where there is nobody else for miles and miles and miles!

  53. Katie says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    Reading a good book. Or taking a nice, scented bath. Or even better, both together!

  54. Cindi says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    If I have a weekend, it is packing quickly and retreating to a state park.
    I love staying in a cozy cabin, hiking, boating and finding unique folk art
    to take home with me.
    Many thanks, Cindi

    A boiling hot bath, with a Lush Geophyz bath bomb in it can melt me to my core.

  58. Mekhala says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I get away out to my garden, where scent, sound, work and relaxation abound.
    During the cold winter, when garden is buried in white, I loll and luxuriate in LUSH bathes.

  59. Noe says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    A warm sweet scented bubble bath and candles… everywhere!

  60. jen says:
    May 18, 2009 at

    I have realized recently (actually, my son has pointed it out to me) that I spend entirely too much time on the toilet, even long after my business there is done. I think I need to develop a better way to get away!

  61. Pamela Boyd says:
    May 19, 2009 at

    I fix a wonderful lavender bubblebath and climb in with my favorite book, light music and just read and relax.

  62. Lisa says:

  63. Kelly Fordon says:

    A mint latte and a quiet corner in the coffee shop or, if no one else (kids) are home, a nice long bath.

  64. Jean Kowalski says:
    May 19, 2009 at

    Many things come to mind!! A nice long soak in the tub, soft music playing, few candles lit!!! Also, sitting in my meditation space with my crystals and essential oils and just taking a little time to clear my head. And a walk by the ocean is great therapy!

  65. Catherine says:
    May 19, 2009 at

    Love your website. I sure could use this gift of a exciting and relaxing spa products as I just had back surgery on May 5. The winner will love this gift and hoping the computer chooses me.

  67. Jill says:
    May 19, 2009 at

    As odd as it might sound, I go to a movie matinee by myself. Most people hate going to the movies alone, but I find it relaxing. I take the afternoon off (I’m self-employed and have a very flexible work schedule), drive into town, and lose myself in a movie for a few hours. It’s especially nice as the weather warms up — I like going from a boiling summer afternoon into a cold, dark theater. ;)

  68. Alexia Hurd says:
    May 19, 2009 at

    I am a full time student so I don’t have much time to travel. My get away is my bath tub, full of bubbles and hot water with a nice glass of wine and a good book. after a nice soak and read I feel like I’ve gone miles away from the stress of school and the grind of daily life.

  69. Kim says:

    May 19, 2009 at

    I take my portable CD player,hop into bed, and put on relaxing tunes that get me in a calm and peaceful state from such artists as Enya, Celtic Woman, Pure Moods soundtrack or meditation music. It really does help and takes your mind somewhere else.

  82. Heather E says:
    May 19, 2009 at

  93. Marla Alleman says:

  103. Alison Luby says:
    May 20, 2009 at

    I think that doing yoga is the best — I really try to not let myself think about everything… and when one of my cats comes to do final relaxation with me, that’s the best :)

  104. Laura says:
    May 20, 2009 at

    When I need to get away from it all, I leave the hubby and kids at home and head to a local trail for some solo hiking. I always feel better afterwards.

  105. 216amyc says:

    May 20, 2009 at

    I wait till no one is home and I take a long soak in the tub.

    To get away from it all, I usually take an hour walk in an unfamiliar area.

    May 20, 2009 at

    When I need to relax, I go to the lake, it’s only a few minutes from my house. Sitting by the water, feeling the breeze against my skin, and feeding the little ducks that swim by helps me to relax, center myself, and to appreciate the little things.

    Ooh, I have been wanting to try the LUSH brand for so long, I’d be so excited to win! Thanks!

  114. Mary B says:
    May 20, 2009 at

  117. Angela J says:
    May 20, 2009 at

    When I need to “get away” I just put my favorite music on, lay down, and zone out for a few minutes.

  118. Shania Duncan says:
    May 20, 2009 at

    Calgon is pretty good to relax in the tub. But to unwind I like to put on my softest pj’s and watch good action movie or comedy and just get lost in it.

    May 20, 2009 at

    Honestly, my favorite way to get away from it all is to take a hot bath with a LUSH ballistic. My little girl and I have a standing date on Thursday nights to take a bath using one of these foamy wonders. I’d love to win this prize to replenish our supply. Thanks for the chance!

    My favorite winter time get away from it all is to go for a hike with my dog then get warm by the fire with a nice cup of hot cocoa and a book.

    In the summer I like to go for a swim and then make a cool and refreshing smoothie while read or do some crafts.

    Not that I get to do this all that much, but I love to go to the spa! I took a mom and daughter weekend a few months ago and this was great. A more regular thing I like to do to relax is just to veg out and watch a movie!

    My favorite way to get away from it all has always been the movies. =) There is nothing like being in a cool dark room watching movies like “Pride & Prejudice” and escaping to another time and place. Same with reading a good book for me, both are great outlets for getting away. =)

  242. SharonAnne says:
    May 25, 2009 at

    I need to make a concerted effort to “get away” more often, now that I think of it. Between work, kids activities and general household stuff I rarely take enough time to just be with myself and collect my own thoughts.

    Sometimes I do go out into the side field and just sit on my favorite rock. I listen to the bords, look for shapes in the clouds and have been known to even doze off. It’s like my own “secret place”, and I feel grounded when I go there just to take a break from the rest of the world.

    I live with my sister and her four boys, so when she and her hubby take them out for the weekend I totaly welcome the break (and likewise am often the babysitter so that they may have their breaks as well.)
    My favorite get-away-at-home while the kiddos are gone is a total facial scrub, icecream and a korean drama (I am watching sweet 18 right now.)
    I feel so naughty indulging in icecream which is something my sister has banned from her children.

    I have created a small english garden with a Koi pond and a pergola. The flowers and birds and waterfall are the most relaxing atmosphere. The next best thing is a long hot soak in the tub with soothing bathsalts!

    May 25, 2009 at

    It generally takes something with a bit of exercise and fresh air — a nice morning walk (about two miles), a good bike ride (about five miles), a nice workout swim in the pool — all of those take about twenty or thirty minutes and really get me back into my body-space and out of my head-space.

    May 26, 2009 at

    Besides my loving to take some alone “me” time to pamper myself a little in the bath, my favorite way to “get away from it all” is to get up really early in the morning before my 3 young children get up, and I have a special spot in our sunroom where I do my Yoga poses everyday. It is my way of getting my mind and body in sync with each other, it helps me to stay grounded and in touch with what is important for me, and it is a great way to jump start my day with some light exercise and relieve my body of any stress that may be hindering in the back of my mind. I have been dying to try some products from LUSH as I have heard how fantastic they are so thanks so much for the chance to enter.

  319. Emily says:
    May 26, 2009 at

    I work a pretty customer service oriented job and am definitely a people pleaser so it is really hard for me to let go of my day or not take my job home with me. I am a HUGE fan of LUSH products and they always come into play when I am trying to unwind. My favorite thing to do to get away from it all is to give myself a facial and make myself a really really good sandwich. Often my boyfriend participates in both (since the day I noted his flaky tzone and did the LUSH Love Lettuce mask on him – he was very impressed with the results) and I start with Ultrabland, then steam my face over a bowl of hot water with a C toner tab to get everything out of my pores. Then I do the Cupcake mask which smells just like chocolate frosting and wipe it off with the toner water and moisturize with Imperialis. Then we watch a bad bad wedding movie or old episodes of The Cosby Show and he tells me I won’t always be able to please everyone and we have a cup of tea. It’s my favorite thing. This is an awesome giveaway. Thanks for letting me enter!

    I’m easy — give me a good science fiction book and, once I get into it, you could set off one of those big neighborhood-coverage tornado alert sirens and I Just Might Not Hear It… I ~do~ respond to both smoke and ice-water, it’s been tested — gotta get your priorities straight; don’t want the book to burn, or get wet, right?
