Lush Blackberry Bath Bomb Review

My all time favorite lush bath bomb. I find this one very exciting to use and the cute little notes left in the bath after the bath bomb has all fizzed up is a really cute touch. Smells delicious! I use it if i ever get the opportunity to bath in the morning because as relaxing as it is able to awaken my senses. Would highly recommend this bath bomb as it is a great go to for any bath, any time of the day.

There are still a few bombs left from Lush that I am yet to try, and until today this was one of them. I was quite excited as it smelled divine, and the coloring of it was gorgeous. I could see a sneaky piece of paper sticking out and I wondered what it said.

I plopped it in the bath today and waited to see what colors would amaze me and see what was hidden within. I waited, and waited. Nothing! The bomb fizzed quite quickly, and the beautiful purple color filled the bath, but there was no wow, no surprise color inside, no lustre to tickle my fancy. To be honest, I was disappointed.

The smell that came off the bomb was nothing like a blackberry. I got hints of sweet, strong frankincense and a bit of bergamot, but very little of the beautiful fruity blackberry, and as I bought it for the blackberry smell, I'm slightly disappointed.

As always, Lush never cease to amaze me with how soft my skin is after I use their delightful bombs. This bomb would be repurchased, simply for the fact that it is uplifting. I have been severely under the weather the last few days and this has perked me up and cheered me up ever so slightly. So while it was disappointing, it was also the only thing I needed to feel like myself again.

This bath bomb smells sooo nice it is so relaxing and it leaves you with a surprise in your bath! I love the smell and it is amazing for just before bed because it really helps me fall asleep!

This bath bomb has bomb on it and when I put it in the bath it fizzes away turning the water a lovely purple colour.

Then in the middle of the bomb popped a small square of paper that said boom. I'm not to sure about this maybe something that could go down the plug hole would have been better.

It smell lovely and my whole house smells of blackberries. My skin feels silky smooth.

Back in the 90s there was an amazing mail order company called Cosmetics to Go, who later became the Lush we all know and love today. This is one of the bath bombs that CTG used to do. Recently Lush announced that they would be discontinuing this one so I had to get it once more for old times sake.

This is still very much the same as it has always been. Just a simple, old school bath bomb. No big show or lots of glitter. It's a fast fizzer and quickly leaves the water a lovely violet colour. The name is quite misleading as it doesn't really smell of blackberry. It's more warming than fruity, thanks to the frankincense. I get more of a sherbet lollies smell than actual blackberry fruit. There is a wee surprise at the end but nothing like you get with more recent bombs.

As with all Lush bombs, it leaves my skin feeling clean and soft. I can get away with not moisturising afterwards but feel like my skin could still benefit from it. I wish Lush would reconsider discontinuing this. Not everyone wants or can use a glittery, jelly filled bomb and this bomb is perfect for those who want a simpler but still relaxing soak.

This does smell delicious and im totally impresssed that these are fully vegan products - animal friendly and great for the environment. However, very expensive for what they are! They smell Devine, look pretty in the bath for about a minute and then that’s it. No benefits to my skin or body whatsoever. I won’t be buying again
