Lush Blackberry Bath Bomb This is a good one to use on days when you are feeling out of sorts, rushed or just can’t think straight. It brings calm and clarity to a busy hectic life. Step out of the bath and leave your cares behind. Makes the perfect bath partner with Sultana of Soap as they share the same fragrance. Blackberry Bath Bomb is one of the first bath bombs Mo invented back in them there olden days – but its pure simplicity has made it a long term favourite. The fragrance was invented originally when Mark and Ro went to Paris and wanted a fragrance that was evocative of the blackberry and musqué they smelt everywhere.

Favourite bath bomb so far

First of all, this bath bomb smells amazing! It is my favourite bomb so far, mostly because of the smell! The first time I got it I cut it in half, it was fantastic! Smelt amazing, everything dissolved, and left my bath in a beautiful purple colour! Second one I brought I used the whole thing and although it was great, I didn't feel like I needed to use the whole thing, half is enough for me.

The only let down is the purple residue left on the the side of the bath, but that's a quick wash and definitely worth it.

Tips: - Cutting it in half worked well for me, you get two baths out of one bomb! Bargain! - Be prepared to give the tub a quick wash after using this one

Lush by name and nature

On my most recent trip to Lush (they happen often) I picked up a new bath bomb. I love using these and this one was $6.90 it seemed like a good value one. I know that these are quite expensive for one go but I like them for a luxurious treat. Some people though use half of one at a time or using them in a foot spa. Both of these are extremely good treat. I love the scent of this of bergamot and frankincense. I love Earl Grey tea so this is the perfect sort of relaxing treat for me.

The packaging of this is great. I like that they wrap your goodies in paper. It means that they are recyclable which is great. Sometimes I get so sick of how much packaging some beauty products.

The bomb itself is a purple-y blue shade, round, with bomb imprinted on the top. When you pop this into the bath it fizzes immediately and turns the whole bath a beautiful purple shade and scents my whole bathroom. When in the bath I found a wee piece of paper that says 'boom!', kinda cute I guess. I didn't have any problems with it staining the bath at all so that is good.

I love using the lush bath bombs. As usual this left my skin feeling nice and soft but doesn't really have any long term effects (other than helping my mental health by relaxing me). I will purchase this again, but I will probably try something new and different first.

Berry Bomb-tastic!

I bought this bomb recently and I had one of the most relaxing baths for a long time. It left my skin smelling divine and feeling moisturized and soft. SO I returned to Lush to buy another to replay the moment. Such a nice bomb. Well done Lush.

Tips: If you are wanting to mix up your bath, cut your bom carefully with a sharp knife and use a bit of one bomb and a bit of this bomb and save the rest for another bath. I recommend mixing this bomb with the Twilight bath bomb :)

Blackberry Bath Bomb

I'm a huge lushie and I love all their bath bomb products. I brought this one as I heard that it helps to relax you. I loved it, was so good. It helped calm me down from a crazy day at work or uni or if i had an assignment that made me want to cry. The smell was amazing. Smelt like berries. The bath water went a nice light purple. This is an amazing product and I have already brought another one.

Tips: Cut your bath bombs either in to 2 or 4 pieces to make your bath bombs last longer

Super Yummy Smell

I am a huge Lush fan, and this was my first bath bomb, and it did not disappoint! Left my skin feeling soft and delicious smelling, and made my whole house smell good too! Would highly recommend!

Tips: Take a washcloth to wipe away any residue, and cut in half using a flathead screwdriver and a hammer

Relaxing in purple

I purchased this bath bomb on a whim and thought it sounded dreamy... I was right. As soon as I smelt it I knew I had to have a bath with it straight away.

It is a huge size so I broke it in half (my tub is tiny too). I loved how it fizzed up wildly and turned the bath water a beautiful hue of purple... the scent was drifting up and smelt relaxing and fruity, soft and sweet, a little frankincense as well, but none of which was over-whelming... just subtle... beautiful!

I soaked in this until my bath water went cold and felt nice and soft, but after drying off my skin felt a little tight and dry. I think I will let my kids have the rest of this even though I like the smell I think they will relax with it better, and I'll add some apricot kernel oil in to moisturise. Oh and the wee note inside was a added surprise... Boom :)

Tips: Cut in half (or smaller if preferred) for better value, as the inside is the same as the outside it doesn't effect it's performance. Note: I smashed mine against the floor which resulted in some finer pieces which were nice to sprinkle in as well... it all fizzes up.

Bombs awaaaay!

Lush is my best friend and my new passion. Blackberry bath bomb was my first purchase and the beginning of my love story with Lush. What's not to love? It's purple, it's natural, cruelty free, it's for relaxation and it smells divine! For $6.90 per bomb, it's the cheapest alternative to a spa treatment in a ball of fizz.

It is a lavender purple colour and maintains it's vibrant colour once dropped in to a bath of hot water. I found that it had blue bits of 'stuff' in it which made me scratch my head at it a bit wondering what it was. Once it hits the water the fizzing is awesome and disappears within 30-45 seconds.

The smell of blackberries and all things berry fill the room and give it a fruity sweetness. It is actually quite calming after a long day at work or a long being a mama.

I slide in to the tub and the days worries simply melt away in the tub while I am transported to my own blackberry goodness smelling world where it's just me and the warmth surrounding me. My senses are put at ease and my muscles turn to jelly as they are enveloped by the sweet smell.

Afterward my skin is feeling very slippery but replenished and relaxed. The only down side to this bath bomb is that it leaves a scummy purple ring around my tub so I am rudely snapped back in to the reality of cleaning it to make sure it doesn't become a permanent fixture of my bath. I love it so much though that I always have a three bath bomb back up at all times to make sure I have some on hand.

Tips: Clean your bath straight away to avoid stains and moisturize after use it can be drying

Blackberry Bath Bomb

I can get two beautifully scented and coloured baths out of one Blackberry Bath Bomb by cutting it in half, it's absolutely huge! I love that it is just one solid colour, no glitter or pretty decorations are needed to make this baby any more appealing than it already is. The scent is sweet like berries but seems to have a subtle citrusy kick to it from the addition of bergamot and frankincense which also gives it a very slight woody scent. One downside to this bath bomb is that it does leave a stubborn purple ring that requires a bit of elbow grease to remove, not my favourite thing to do after a relaxing bath but I continue to suck it up and buy these bath bombs.

This is The Bomb!

I am not the biggest fan of baths, they're lovely while it lasts but I find it super difficult to get myself out of the warm water and let the cold air attack my body haha. Recently I've been wanting to take a nice hot bath and my lovely friend, who's a bit of a Lush junkie, talked me into picking up a bath bomb. I've never been the biggest fan of bubble baths or anything fancy like that, just run the water and hop on in - that's how I've always been. But people continue to rave about these bath bombs so I decided well, why not?

It seems that Lush enjoy putting glitter into almost everything which I am not into, so Blackberry was my bomb of choice as it was nice and simple, no glitter or any chunky bits stuck in it. Everyone had told me to only use half but my attempt in halving the rock hard ball failed, so I just chucked the whole thing in! (I have a pretty standard size tub and like to have deep baths). First off, the colour is gorgeous, one of my favourite colours is purple so I loved the different shades swirling about in my tub. The smell is heavenly, I really enjoy deep, rich fragrances, so the mix of blackberry, frankincense and bergamot was right up my alley - but it could definitely be too strong for some. The warm water really intensifies the fragrance, so laying in the tub you're enveloped by the amazing warmth of the scent. This made the bath water extremely soft and that's exactly what I was hoping for. My skin was in dire need of deep hydration and a good exfoliation so having soaked in the tub with the bath bomb really allowed for my skin to soften. The overall experience is very relaxing, the feeling it gives in the water, the fragrance and the colour - it's more than I had expected.

Afterwards my skin was left feeling silky, smooth and baby soft - it hasn't felt like this in a long time. It really absorbed the lotion I applied after and still feels amazing today - with no dry patches! Fortunately for me my bath wasn't left with any staining or a purple ring - hallelujah! Saves me from scrubbing away after such a relaxing soak. I definitely want to try more or Lush's Bath Bombs (all of them that don't include glitter) but unfortunately we are renovating our bathroom this Summer and the plans are to leave the bath tub behind... So we shall see how many soaks I can fit in before the room is ripped apart.

All in all I am pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this product. It always seemed a little gimmicky to me, like it was just a hyped up, fancy product to colour the water, but I was wrong! I do really recommend you try one if you haven't already, it's definitely worth it!
