Bathers have a chance to embrace their inner ogres thanks to the new swamp-themed bathtub experience.
Fans of the Scottish, green-skinned grump will be able to bathe like their hero in Lush’s new ‘Book a Swamp’ spa experience, available exclusively at Lush Spa in Edinburgh.
Customers can wallow in an immersive, private bathroom themed around the movie’s iconic opening sequence, when Shrek showers in mud, brushes his teeth with goo and blows bubbles in his pond.
The hilarious experience is set to be the most luxurious swamp ever - complete with products from the new Lush x Shrek range.
The experience is £60 and involves 30 minutes of alone time in the tub, which will have been lovingly prepared beforehand by one of Lush Spa’s trained ‘swamp experts’.
Bathers can relax among the moss and trees and enjoy a bath bridge full of goodies, including the Shrek Swamp Bath Bomb, Mask of Magnaminty, a fresh cleanser, green cucumber eye pads, and an exclusive onion carriage soap not available anywhere else.
Ruby West, Lush Spa Research and Development Support, said: "Book a Swamp Bath is all about elevating the client’s bathing experience, and exploring how immersive and luxurious a bath can be - mirroring the level of care and attention you’d give if you were running a bath for a loved-one.
“For one time only Edinburgh spa is having a swamp takeover - dive into a glorious mud and oakmoss seaweed bath as you bathe like Shrek.

"Ground yourself in nature with trees, moss and peep through the window to Shrek’s house from the tub.
"This is one swamp you won’t be told to ‘get out’ of!”
Taking the mud bath concept to a whole new level, the bubbles in this bath are all - thankfully - caused by the Shrek Swamp Bath Bomb, launching as part of the limited-edition range.
Dropping exclusively online and via the Lush app, the Shrek collection is inspired by the ogre's journey from a self-loathing to a self-acceptance.
Lush bosses say the range aims to bring joy and silliness to the worlds of beauty and wellbeing - showing that there is no one way to be beautiful and feel good.
The new, limited-edition collection features Get Out Of My Swamp Shower Slime, Shrek Swamp Bath Bomb and Fiona Shower Gel, complete with new and exclusive fragrances, as well as returning favourite scents for Gingy Bubble Bar and Donkey Bath Bomb.
The Fiona Shower Gel has a light, fresh and fruity scent of lime and green grass, featuring lime, pine and buchu oils and mango leaf absolute, while Shrek Swamp is scented with rich, deep chocolate mixed with a refreshing, minty and spicy top note thanks to peppermint, pink pepper and vanilla.
Lush’s best selling Mask of Magnaminty face and body mask, fondly referred to as the ‘Shrek Pack’ by customers for its ogre-like green hue, will also be donning a special Shrek label to celebrate the collaboration.
