LUSH Honey Bee Bath Bomb
























LUSH Honey Bee Bath Bomb - £3.25

My third and final LUSH Bath Bomb review is coming right at you now in the form of the Honey Bee Bath Bomb. I have yet to state which is my favourite Bath Bomb from LUSH and that is because i've not been able to talk about it, until now as this one is my ultimate number one favourite bath bomb from LUSH.

The main reason being the scent. Oh my goodness it smells absolutely divine! One of the best scents, not only in LUSH, but ever to have existed quite frankly. It is a gorgeous honey, caramel, toffee sweet gooey goodness - it's good enough to eat! But don't because that'll be very bad for you.



This bath bomb contains ingredients like:
Honey (that's obvious from the name), sweet wild orange oil (can't smell any orange at all to be honest), Rhassoul Mud and oddly aloe vera (the latter of which I can't smell either). These ingredients do wonders for the skin, and have natural cleansing properties and help to keep the skin smooth.
My skin did feel lovely and soft after using this bath bomb, it didn't leave any residue on my skin like the butterball one. This could be a plus or negative point, depending if you like to have that moisturising layer left on your skin after a bath.



As you can see from the picture it turns your bath water a yellow colour, which isn't the most appealing colour in the world, my sister doesn't like it at all. But it doesn't bother me all that much to be honest. I just feel like i'm bathing in caramel or something, just not at all sticky and it is just water at the end of the day.

This bath bomb will also last you two uses as it is a larger bath bomb, it fizzed well in the bath and the scent lingered on my skin after I got out of the bath.

If you're a fan of the It's Raining Men Shower Gel or the Honey, I washed the Kids soap then this is the exact same scent as those two products. Alternatively if you love the scent of this one then those two are other products you should try out!

Like I said it's my favourite bath bomb, I really can't fault it! If I could only purchase one bath bomb from LUSH for the rest of my life then i'd go for this one without a doubt.

LUSH Butterball Bath Bomb

 
LUSH Butterball Bath Bomb - £2.50
 
This bath bomb changed my entire outlook when it came to bath products and just having a bath in general. A bold statement to make but true nonetheless. This is the Butterball Bath Bomb from LUSH and the reason it changed my opinion on baths are are as follows.
 
I remember walking into LUSH with my sister who was after some bath stuff many a moon ago, and the lovely sales assistant was talking to us about the products as they usually do. As she was helping my sister pick out some things she asked me what I would like, and I explained to her how I wasn't so keen on baths because of my eczema issues and wasn't sure if I was even able to have a bath at all without my eczema flaring up.
 
She was so sweet bless her and talked to me for ages about how other people come into LUSH with similar problems and what products would be good for me, this sales assistant was also the one who told me about Ultrabland and has since changed my life when it comes to skincare, so big thumbs up to her! But as we were by the bath bombs she led us over to this bath bomb and she was saying how this is probably one of the best bath bombs they do for sensitive and eczema prone skin like myself, as it is very moisturising and has very gentle ingredients that will keep you moisturised even after getting out of the bath.
 
So I decided to get this one and tried it out, and as I said at the beginning, it changed how I felt about taking baths.
 

 
It may not be much to look at, let's face it it's not the most exciting of all the bath bombs, it doesn't have a bright colour or have different patterns on it etc, it is a simple small white bath bomb. The sales assistant said it's a very much overlooked product as people are more drawn to the colourful ones rather than the little plain white one sitting in the corner. I can totally relate to that as I had never noticed this one before myself.
 
When you use this bath bomb it doesn't create amazing colours in the water either, it makes it look slightly milky colour to begin with but in a matter of ten minutes or so it has gone and it just looks like you're bathing in warm water. But that doesn't bother me in the slightest.
 
It smells like vanilla which is one of its main ingredients along with cocoa butter and a musk scent. It smells so lovely and it's such a simple scent and not overly fragranced which is good for sensitive skin and eczema sufferers like myself. The cocoa butter is the main selling point of this bath bomb for me as, unlike other bath bombs which I think just make your bath smell nice and don't actually make any noticeable difference to your skin, this one certainly does. It forms like a residue on your skin and moisturises your skin whilst your in the bath and when you get out your skin feels so moisturised, it's amazing! You definitely do not need to put any kind of moisturiser or body lotion/butter on your skin after having a bath using this bath bomb, it does it all for you. So if you're lazy when it comes to that step of your skin routine then this would be handy for you to bathe in.
 
I don't mind that this bath bomb doesn't look as appealing as all the others, I just love the fact it actually has some benefit to my skin and also that it is one of the cheaper bath bombs as it is quite small. I only managed to get one use out of this bath bomb unlike the others I can normally get two uses out of them.
 
If you like your LUSH bath bombs and haven't tried this one yet then I really urge you to. If I went into LUSH at any time of the year looking for a bath bomb this would be one of the ones I would more than likely pick up without a doubt.

LUSH Father Christmas Bath Bomb

 
Lush Father Christmas Bath Bomb - RRP £3.25 now on sale for £1.63
 
I wouldn't normally do a second post about the same brand directly after doing one on Lush yesterday, but this is a Christmas product and I wanted to get it posted before the new year. So apologies for that. Anyway, on to the review.
 
I'm not the biggest bath lover in the world, I much prefer showers as they are much quicker and with my eczema problems I just feel a lot more comfortable with showers. However, for Christmas this year I received this bath bomb from one of my best friends and so it is one of those rare times when a bath is needed.
 
One thing I do find is that baths are incredibly relaxing, I used this bath bomb and I was in the bath for well over an hour and I came out feeling very chilled out and slightly sleepy. I suppose that's the appeal to a lot of people. And if I ever do want to take a bath I always choose to take a bath using Lush products as they are so much fun and the ingredients they use are good for the skin, my eczema has yet to react to any of them.

 
The Father Christmas bath bomb is what you'd expect, a Santa Clause face on a bath bomb! Which is so fun and festive and perfect to use around Christmas time, or on the big day itself if you choose to do so. It's a lovely pink and white colour and gives off the scent of madarin oranges which is a very Christmassy scent. I have to be honest and say it wasn't a total orange scent, I couldn't smell too much orange it just smelt quite sweet and fresh, but it was a great scent nonetheless.
 
 
It's quite a large bath bomb too and I managed to salvage half of it in the bath to use again, you can definitely get two uses out of this bath bomb if you grab it out of the bath in time. I always do that with the Lush bath bombs to make extra use out of them, there's no point spending a few pounds on a bath bomb just for one use.
 
As you can see from the picture this is a surprising bath bomb in that when you first put it in your bath is turns the bath a milky pink sort of colour and then in the middle it is a dark green! So very festive! I wasn't expecting this at all, and that's another thing I love about the Lush bath products, quite a few of them have secret colours inside and you wouldn't know about it until you actually use it.
 
So the dark green on the inside of this bath bomb inevitably made my bath water also look green, it looked like I was bathing in washing up liquid! This colour of bath water may bother some people but it never bothers me. I just look at the scent of the bath bomb itself and if it helps my skin in any way.
 
 
I don't think this bath bomb actually did anything for my skin, unlike some other ones i've tried like Butterball. It did leave my skin smelling nice when I got out but that was all.
 
As this is a Christmas limited edition product you won't be able to get hold of bath bomb from now on until next Christmas time, but if you're quick they may have a few left there from the sales.

When Christmas rolls around again next year, and if I fancy getting myself a Christmas themed bath bomb, then I would definitely consider buying this again.
 
It is still avaliable to buy online for a great price of
£1.63 down from £3.25
