A few weeks ago I purchased the Avobath, Twilight, and Dragon’s Egg bath bombs from Lush. I enjoy their bath bombs because they often have great scents and leave my skin feeling great. Since then, I have purchased and tried even more bath bombs, which I wanted to rank and review here.
Fairy Trumpets
The fairy trumpets bath bomb is yellow and topped with a pink flower pattern, but the flower pattern did not survive shipping well as there were pink chunks in the paper bag. The bath bomb has a floral scent, but it fizzed very quickly. The yellow and pink colors mixed to a dark yellow shade, which was not the most pleasant of colors. The bath bomb was supposed to have chunks of popping candy, but again, I did not hear any crackling as the bath bomb was fizzing, which makes me question if there was actually any popping candy added to it. Furthermore, the pink flower pattern left pink residue at the water line in the bathtub, which did take some scrubbing to remove. Due to all the downsides, this bath bomb is my least favorite.

Butterball
The bath bomb has a nice vanilla scent, but it only fizzes a little and lasts for a short time. Instead of changing colors, the bathwater looked soapy, which I somewhat expected from a white bath bomb. The bath bomb contains chunks of cocoa butter, which left my legs feeling nice and smooth after my bath. Even though I liked the scent and the cocoa butter, I find the price too expensive for a small bath bomb that only makes my legs feel smooth.

Avobath
This bath bomb is one my least favorites. Even though the water did turn a pretty green color, my skin did not feel moisturized after using it. Also, the bath bomb only fizzed for a short time and the scent was barely noticeable even though in the store it had a much stronger scent. I feel the price is too expensive for this bath bomb, and I will not purchase it again.

Lava Lamp
The bath bomb has a wonderful citrus scent, and the water changed to an orange soda color. However, I was disappointed with the purple dots. Instead of creating a lava lamp effect, the dots broke apart into chunks and stuck to the side of the bathtub. The purple left some residue on the tub, but it easily washed off. Even though I was disappointed with the lava lamp effect, my legs did feel smooth and moisturized after using this bath bomb. However, I would not purchase this bath bomb again.

Mercury in Retrograde
The mercury in retrograde bath bomb is from the Halloween 2019 collection, therefore, it was limited edition. The bath bomb is orange and mixed with a line of purple and green. The orange fizzled quickly while the purple and green sections lasted a bit longer. The bath bomb has a fruity and spicy scent, and it was not that exciting to watch, but it was nice seeing the colors mix. The bath water became an orange color with a slight shimmer, which is appropriate for Halloween and the fall. Also, there was no residue left in the bathtub. This bath bomb was nice to try especially since it was perfect for Halloween with the scent and color, but I would not purchase it again.

Harajuku
The harajuku bath bomb is pink, tan, and white, and it actually has a bubblegum scent. The bath bomb fizzes for a while, and the colors mix to form a peach shimmer shade, which was nice to watch. The bath bomb did not leave any residue in the bathtub. Even though harajuku was a nice bath bomb, for the money I would rather get a different one.

Geode
The geode bath bomb is tan and topped with purple popping candy that then opens up to reveal a pink shimmer inside. The bath bomb has a lavender scent, and it is fun to watch the colors mix. However, I did not hear any crackling from the popping candy when the bath bomb hit the water. The bath bomb fizzes a while and you are left with gold glitter water. All the gold glitter did leave residue in the bathtub, but it easily rinsed off. This bath bomb is one of my favorites.

Moon Spell
The moon spell bath bomb contains two halves – the blue half with a crescent moon and the pink half with the moon indentation that interlock. The bath bomb has a fruity scent, but it is more subtle than other bath bombs I tried. You can use the pink and blue halves separately, but I used them together. The blue half is like a regular bath bomb that fizzes for a while, and the pink half is a jelly bomb so it does not fizz as much and it lasts longer than the blue half. The bath water became a pretty blue shade with little pink stars, and there was no residue left in the bathtub. This bath bomb is one of my favorites because there was so much to it.

Guardian of the Forest
I love Hayao Miyazaki’s films and when I saw that this bath bomb was inspired by Princess Mononoke, I had to try it. The bath bomb is just like taking a stroll in the forest because it changes the water to several shades of green and yellow, which then mixes to become a dark forest green. There is some glitter, which adds a bit of shimmer to the water. I found the bath bomb fun and relaxing to watch the colors mix, but the bath bomb does not fizz for long. The bath bomb has an earthy/woodsy scent, which may not appeal to everyone, but I enjoyed the scent. There was also no residue left in the tub. This was definitely one of my favorite bath bombs.

Dragon’s Egg
This bath bomb is like an egg with a white shell and orange yolk that is packed with glitter. Once the middle was exposed, the bathwater turned an orange color. Also, the bath bomb has a nice citrus scent and it made my skin feel smooth. There was some tub residue, but it washed off easily with water. I would recommend purchasing this bath bomb if you want a different experience from the usual bath bombs.

Twilight
This bath bomb is my all-time favorite because it has a great lavender scent and it makes my skin feel so soft. The bathwater has a nice pink color that turns purple with an added bit of glitter. The bath bomb is relaxing and I was able to unwind and read Dream House while bathing. When I was finished with my bath, there was no tub residue. I enjoyed using this bath bomb and I would recommend purchasing it.
