Sunny Side Bubble Bar


I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bubble bar.  It was only my second dance with that type of product and I was romanced into a lifetime love affair with this sparkly ball of yummy.

I didn't look up this product before I used it.  To be honest, I wasn't too sold on the scent outside of the bath.  I think it might have scared me into thinking it was a watered-down Karma *insert horror music here*.  I was proven wrong though the moment I began to crumble 1/2 of this bar into my water.  The scent was intoxicating.  It was citrus-y and bright.  This bar made bubbles that outlasted the heat of my water!  With most other bubble products, including the Dorothy bubble bar, the bubbles popped out and left me *gasp* naked!  The water was a luminescent, swirly gold dream world and left my skin dusted with glitter after my bath.  My skin was softened and scented like a citrus garden. 

The great thing about this product, is that 1/2 of the bar was more than enough to give me an over-the-top bath experience.  I decided to cut the remaining 1/2 into two chunks which I'm positive will be great baths.  Such a great deal!

So yourself a favor, meet the love of your life on LUSH's site:

Avobath Bath Bomb


This is an egg half in my Happy Easter gift set.  It holds a Hippy Chick bath bomb along with a Candy Fluff egg half and sits waiting patiently for me to use it.  I chose to use this last the the set because it is a bomb that is part of LUSH's normal lineup.  It is perfect for this set.  It is the grass in the Easter basket. 

It smells fresh and grassy.  Hence, the lemongrass ingredients!  It was more dense then Candy Fluff (harder to break) but fizzed out quickly.  The scent was very strong while it fizzed but left quickly.  It didn't stick around on my skin, to my disappointment.  However, toward the end of my bath I noticed.....IT'S SPARKLY!!!  The water had a bijillion (yes, that's a word) sparkles in it that didn't cling to my skin but made that water fun.  My skin felt softer than usual, although not as soft as Candy Fluff.  I would definitely buy this bomb outside of Easter products.

Space Girl Bath Bomb


This is a bath bomb that I wouldn't shed a tear to see hit the "Fond Farewells" section of Lush's website.  The bomb itself is cute.  It's a pretty Marie Antoinette grey/blue planet covered in gorgeous copper sparkles.  The scent was a nice and subtle but didn't register the exact scent to my nose.  When I put it in the bath it fizzed out very quickly.  The only part of this bomb that I enjoyed more then "meh" was when it was fizzing it would shoot out magenta colored blasts.  The website says that it is supposed to crackle in the water but mine didn't do a thing!  Also, I expected it to be more sparkly but alas, only the surface sparkles floated in my water.  It dryed out my skin and didn't leave me smelling nice at all.  My bathroom didn't even take on a scent.  I'd have to say that this bomb won't be on my list of must-haves :(  It was......a bomb.

If you are interested in trying this bath bomb and hopefully having a better experience, check out the product information on Lush's website:

Dragon's Egg Bath Bomb


This is an amazingly fun bath bomb!  It looks exactly how I would imagine a dragon egg to look like.  When dropped in the water it fizzes out milky white and then the core is struck by hot water.....CRAZY!  The water is instantly filled with golden shimmer and tiny flecks of gold glitter.  I just HAD to pull it out of the water and snap a picture.  I've never seen anything like it.  It's almost like watching mercury roll around when you hold it in your hand (except, not harmful to your health LOL).  When you get into the water you are surrounded by shimmer and glitter.  I kept thinking about those sea cucumber, plastic, shimmery, liquid-filled things at the mall.  If you were to swim in one of those, this is what it would be like.  Almost like you are in a glittery womb.  Sick but cool :)

The only negative of this bomb, in my opinion is the scent.  Outside of the water it isn't particularly yummy.  An almost sickening smell of lemon.  I couldn't quite place my finger on the smell.....I had smelled it before.  When I got in the water, it hit me like a ton of bricks.  LEMON PLEDGE.  Now, I have to explain myself.  Growing up, my mom always bought the lemon Pledge.  I begged and begged for the vanilla but she tortured me (I love you, Mom) with the lemon.  Therefore, I could never grow to love that smell.  BUT...if you like super lemon-y scents, this is the aboslute best bet for a great bath bomb experience!
