Superdad bath bomb, Lush

So my Lush kitchen order arrived not that long ago with 2 Two Timing Tart bubble bars, 2 All that Jas bath bombs and this Superdad bath bomb.

Upon opening the box and joyfully sniffing each product in turn I was absolutely delighted and though it was the nicest smelling bundle I have purchased. I just could not pick which one smelt the best and couldn't wait to get in the tub.

This bath bomb just smells so lovely. To me it's quite powdery and the Guaiacwood is really pronouced. It's howI imagine a powdery Lynx would smell but strangely I didn't find it a masculine scent but quite sweet.

In the bath I could tell it was quite a nourishing bath bomb.

BUT the scent just died!!! It literally went from smelling so gorgeous and looking so inviting but the scent literally just evaporated.
Heart break💔

The colours were beautiful and I was left with gorgeous turquoise water.

 

Verdict: I wouldn't buy again based on the fact that it doesn't smell strong enough in the bath. 

Scent: 2/10 (would of been 10 if it hung about in the tub!)

Visual performance: 8/10

Nourishing: 8/10

Rainbow bath bomb, Bomb cosmetics

Yes I know. I am a traitor! Or at least thats what my die hard Lush family will think.

This is a very pretty bath bomb by Bomb Cosmetics. A much cheaper but in my opinion more beautiful looking bath bomb by Lush. I know this company has been around a while because I can remember buying a gift set for a friend when I was quite young.

I  know that this company sells vegan friendly products because despite my fiancé knowing I have an obsession with Lush, he bought me some products for Christmas by BC. I think he was hoping I would fall in love with this brand and my wallet would be a bit fuller!

So, I  tried out a sweet little box of chocolate scented treats which were bath creamers and mallows I think. I  did not enjoy them because they didn't transform my bath in terms of scent which is most important to me.  I  just wanted to use them all up so I could go back to indulging in a Lush bath!

Recently however I have been trying to decrease my spending on bath products so thought I would try out BC products again. I had a nose on the website and saw they updated the Web pages to include the vegan logo. (Yay!). I  popped into my local stockists and purchased the most wonderfully scented bombs I could.

Unfortunately, after double checking I realised they are not a 100% vegan company and in my haste looking out the various products on their website I somehow only managed to click on all the pages that were vegan products so yeahhh. My bad!

Anyway the only vegan product out of the photo above is the one I am about to review!  ( I PROMISE )

SOOOO

I was in 2 minds about this product during my bath.
I  liked it.
I didn't love it.
Hmmmm.
It was nice that it was pretty & it was a combination of a bath bomb and a bath creamer. So excellent value for money if you compare with Lush.

I liked the scent BUT I could tell that the bath was going to need a good clean almost straight away which doesn't make a very relaxing bath.

Once I got out(&gave the bath a good scrub) I thought yes I will buy again.

Yet when my hair was drying I noticed that it was probably going to be greasy and by next day I would look like I rubbed oils into my hair.  I  try to wash my hair every other day but it was impossible to of not washed the grease out.

Therfore I can safely say I would not buy this again.

Although to be fair to BC my partner bought me a body polisher from there as well and its HEAVENLY and I  have 2 tubs of the stuff!!!

I  may also be biased because I hate oily baths and refuse to even buy Lush bath oils again!

Golden egg bath bomb, Lush

Ooooh YAS HUNNY

I loooove this! !!!

Golden shimmer and sparkle ✔

& long lasting 2 in 1 BATH BOMB MELT!!!

Indulgent caramel scent and creamy, silky water.
I think it's wonderful how long it takes to melt. I don't like watching 💰fizz away in seconds.  I bought 4 of these after my initial treat. It would be incredible paired with Butterball in my opinion, I am looking forward to it.

Ultaviolet bubble bar, Lush

This UV bubble bar was released as part of the 2015 Mothers day range.

To look at, bubble bar didn't interest me very much at all hence why it took me until mid 2016 to try it out! (The one used in this review was purchased 2016).

When the Easter range I had been so eager to dive into was finally online I snapped everything up (except Bouncy Bunny shower jelly) but this bubble bar nearly didn't make it into my order as nothing excited me. & being priced at £4.75 didn't help.

Whilst using in the bath I wasn't enthusiastic about the scent. Some bloggers have likened it to the sweet scent of Parma Violets my favourite scent as a child but I didn't pick that up at all!

My initial whiff totally put me off for a few months and the dull complexion of the bar seemed like I wastes money on a bath I wouldn't enjoy.

The smell in the bath was quite smokey/ earthy with a hint of violet.

The bath water turned a lovely purple and even though I uses a small piece the smell was strong, it was nourishing and very bubbly!

I  think this would be a fabulous product for those who like the smell! You could quater this bar and still have a blanket of bubbles, enough oils and scents to be happy with. If like me you don't like too many bubbles you could possibly do it into eights!!!?

Anyway long story short I wouldn't use again for myself, but I would invest in it again for my son to have a bubble bath.

Perhaps Lush should expand their Fathers day range and add this to the collection as it was a manly scent and design in my opinion!
