I love Lush Cosmetics! Lush is definitely in my top five, all-time favorite cosmetic brands. I mean, how can it not be? The products are handmade (each product has a friendly note dating when the product was made and the very hands who made it) and include ethically sourced and bought ingredients. As a vegetarian myself, I also love that Lush’s products are 100% vegetarian and cruelty-free. But what I really, really love the most about Lush is their original bath bombs. They’re a simple, but gentle blend of sodium bicarbonate, citric acid and other beautiful ingredients!
After a hard day of work, what’s more relaxing than taking a nice, steaming hot bath? Drop in a bath bomb from Lush and you’ve got a fizzy, colorful and sweet-smelling entertainment show. Lush’s bath bombs come in a variety of shapes, colors, and scents that include gentle and non-irritant natural ingredients. Here are some of the UK-based brand’s best smelling and best-selling bath bombs ranked with verified product reviews:
1. The Big Sleep
Lush The Big Sleep Bath Bomb ($8.95/6.3 oz.)
You’ll want to use this moisturizing jelly bomb right before bed. With lavender, chamomile and neroli, this bath bomb calms and soothes, preparing you for a good night’s rest.
“This bath bomb is just lovely. I really enjoy the scent of Twilight, but the glitter really irritates my skin so I am so thankful that the Big Sleep Jelly Bomb has the same soothing lavender scent without all the shimmer and WITH all the moisturizing jelly. The jelly is so totally moisturizing that you don’t have to put on lotion after you dry off. Lovely scent, beautiful color and very silky feeling skin as a result.” –Karl
2. Sex Bomb
Lush Sex Bomb Bath Bomb ($7.95/6.3 oz.)
This bath bomb gets its name from aphrodisiac ingredients like jasmine, clary sage and ylang ylang. Not only does this bath bomb have a tantalizing scent, but it also softens your skin with soy milk.
“This bomb is not too strong smelling but gives off a lovely relaxing bath smell! The color is light. My first bath bomb from Lush, and still get it every time I go!” –Rachel
3. Butterball
Lush Butterball Bath Bomb ($4.95/3.1 oz.)
Vanilla is one of my favorite cosmetic scents. With fair-trade cocoa butter in its ingredients list (that’s what those little specks are from!), the Butterball Bath Bomb is pure creamy goodness with a hint of citrus.
“I absolutely love this bath bomb. I don’t like bombs that are too overwhelming in scent. This one is perfect. It’s a combination of vanilla, oatmeal and cocoa butter. Which makes it unisex, which is a good thing because almost everyone in my house loves it. It moisturizes my skin without leaving it too greasy. We all have varying degrees of eczema and this doesn’t irritate it.” –Siren.Daisy
4. Pink
Lush Pink Bath Bomb ($8.95/7.0 oz.)
If you enjoy sweet, candy-like scents, you’ll love this bath bomb. Lush’s Pink Bath Bomb has vanilla, citrus, lavender, and tonka (a cherry-almond scented bean) in its ingredients list, creating a spellbinding fragrance.
“The sweet warm smell lasted the whole bath and was so nice. Glitter is not my favorite and I was worried about it on the outside but it wasn’t too much at all. Definitely will get again.” –Fayetteville Arkansas
5. Dragon’s Egg
Lush Dragon’s Egg Bath Bomb ($7.45/6.3 oz.)
The Big Sleep puts you to bed, but this bath bomb will wake you up. Lush’s Dragon’s Egg Bath Bomb fizzes orange and has a citrusy-floral scent for an aromatherapeutic pick-me-up. It also includes Lush’s “Popping Candy,” a blend of isomalt, lycasin and carbon dioxide that create sizzling sights and sounds in your bath water.
“I LOVE this bath bomb! It is in my top two favorites of all LUSH bath bombs. It smells amazing, looks amazing, and leaves my skin silky smooth afterwards. What more can a girl ask for?” –Sloan
