I'm a lush bath bomb regular, I'll often buy a whole heap at once and leave them in a bowl in my room (they make my whole house smell lovely). This was my first time using the blackberry bomb and I'd had a big week of physical activity so I went the whole nine yards- wine, candle and a good documentary on the ipad. The initial smell of the bomb in the packet is subtle and musky- not too sweat which I loved. I put the bomb in the water and was pleasantly surprised- the water was turning into a mix of mulberry purple and a bluish purple. Upon inspection I saw within the bomb there were little pockets of the two different colours that made vibrant streaks in the water- gorgeous! The water finally settled into a lovely deep purple colour and I noticed a little note reading 'BOOM' had appeared from within the center of the bathbomb- it made me giggle. The scent of the water was musky with floral notes- not artificial smelling and clean. It filled the bathroom but was not overpowering. I would say it was a calming scent- but the actually bomb while it was fizzing in the water was really fun and would cheer me up on a bad day (it would be hard to stay grumpy in a pretty cloud of swirly purples). I soaked for around 45 minutes and came out smelling amazing and clean. My skin was not itchy either (some highly perfumed soaps etc can make me itchy) and didnt feel dry. I will most definitely be using this bath bomb again.

Lush Blackberry Bath Bomb Review
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.
Reviews
Tips: Add some extra Epsom salts the water.
Wow, this bath bomb was sure impressive. Super fizzy purple foam, which lasted for quite a long time. The blackberry smell was gorgeous, a sweet and spicy fragrance. My skin felt lovely and soft after a relaxing soak. Would definately use this again or buy as a gift for someone. Well priced value for money, love this product is handmade in NZ.
I 'found' Lush in Canada many years ago and was pleased when they opened here in NZ. I have a few favourite products that I turn to when I want the house smelling divine. With this Blackberry Bath Bomb I left it in front of me on my computer desk for a few days so I could take in the aroma and think about whether it was a smell I liked or maybe not be so keen on. On a Saturday night when I had the evening to myself I decided to run a large hot bath and pop my bath bomb in to enjoy a long soak. The smell was divine and it made my skin feel silky smooth, for hours after my skin still had the gorgeous scent permeating from it. It looks like it has become another favourite.
Tips: wait for an evening alone so you can take the time to enjoy a long soak!
There were two things I noticed as soon as I took the bomb out of the packaging: the amazing scent and the animal test friendly note on the packaging. Both of these are important selling points for me. The bath bomb made the whole bathroom smell heavenly before it even went into the bath. And the smell for me was very relaxing. It dissolved very quickly and left no grainy remains in the bath. The water became soft and almost creamy. I felt the moisture difference in my skin when drying with the towel, almost as if I had rubbed baby oil over my body, it was silky soft.
Tips: It does leave a coloured residue ring around the bath so the bath will need a quick going over when you get out.
Blackberry bath bomb - in other words pure unadulterated sensual heaven.
Fantastic after a long stressful day, lovely fragrance, skin feels smooth and luxurious.
Tips: If you don't have a bath don't worry. I broke mine up and got many foot spas over the week for myself and my flatmate - now she's a convert too!
I've never used a bath bomb before, so this was my first time. 10/10 for visual effects to start with! Loved how it fizzed around the bath, changing the water to this absolutely gorgeous shade of purple. The scent was delicate and not too perfumed, and I loved how there were no bubbles. I found this really relaxing and it left my skin feeling so soft afterwards.
This was the best bath I have ever had.
I found these balls to be quite costly but if you only use half at a time, you get more use out of the bomb :)
The smell is amazing which is no surprise when buying lush products
the fizz to the bath makes it that much more exciting.
I found my skin to be so soft after using one of these bombs
I have recommended these balls to people as a perfect was to wind down after work and everyone I have told, have thanked me for telling them about this product.
Tips: Use half at a time to get more use out of one bomb.
I am a huge Lushie. I love almost all their products. I love what Lush stands for. I love the prices. Everything.
This bath Balistic is a personal favourite of mine. The sweet, fruity scent is heavenly and lingers in the bath and on the skin long after you've dried off. The size is large enough that you can use it in two halves and get more value for money and still get the divine purple coloured bath water. Pure Bliss!
Tips: Cut it in half to get two baths out of one bath balistic!
A blue dusky grey coloured mandarin sized ball of total heaven, has bomb written on it. And the scent spicy olibanum and musk, bergamot and spice and blackberries the scent is divine. So I pop it in my bath and this bath bomb goes go crazy and it twists and turns and sort of blows up and leaves a trail of purple foam and a little bit of paper that says boom don't know what happened to it, it just went away possibly sucked up the pipes of the spa bath I must admit that was cute, the water goes a lilac colour (I have a massive bath) and the water and my bathroom both smell divine, and I sink into total luxury, and when I get out and I am all dry I also smell so nice. This caused no irritation and I felt nearly a little moisturised and the water was really nice and soft. So just a nice swirl of colour with a fragrance that has become a favourite of mine, this is one I reach for in desperation for a treat for my senses. I use the whole thing no saving it I just relish in the whole experience. As I love a treat once a week in the bath with all the luxuries this is up there on the must haves.
I only have a bath every now and then because we don't have one in my apartment but this is 100% one of my fave bath bombs from Lush. It was the very first one I gravitated before because I love purple and the smell was amazing. Its not an overwhelming berry scent, its very subtle, but it is also very comforting. You always smell good when hoping out of a Blackberry bath and thankfully, you're skin is not stained purple!
Tips: My favourite lush bombs to pair it with are Butterball, for soft, luscious skin, and The Comforter bubble bar for a delicious blackberry scent for ultimate relaxation and comfort!
