Frozen Bath Bomb Lush Cosmetics

Months ago came hints towards a bath bomb which would be inspired by Disney's Frozen. A picture on Jack Constantine's Instagram page (@doubtfulsound) was released showing the hash tag #letitgo which immediately stirred rumors of a Frozen themed bath bomb. The picture shows a more pale white colour with a deep blue band around its circumference whereas the finished product available from Lush Oxford Street is a more powdered blue with a thicker belt around the bomb.

Frozen inspired bath bomb
The smell is strong yet not overpowering. This bomb has a pairing of grapefruit and neroli oils and shares its scent with that of Happy Happy Joy Joy hair conditioning perfume. Although, when this was mentioned to a member of staff, it was disregarded and told that this offers more grapefruit but it's pretty much identical match! So after sniffing and whiffing, it called for one thing......let's drop this and see what it can really do!

                                           
The beautiful ice blue splitting out into the bath
As soon as this bomb hits the water the pale blue sections fluff and puff out and give a very slow fizz, whilst the blue centered band goes to work! It oozes out into the bath which slowly turns the water into an piercing iced blue. This centre piece is a fast fizzer and begins to create a work of art on the surface of the bath. The blue and the blue tinted white fluffy, creamy section compliment each other in such a beautiful way. The pictures certainly speak for themselves. Compared to other bath bombs from Lush, this is certainly a longer performing bomb with this one fizzing longer than 7-8 minutes. Due to the middle fizzing faster than the outside, the bomb splits in half towards the end, giving two iceburg like islands floating around the bath. Looking closely in the bomb, a generous helping of silver lustre can be seen which gives this bomb that really icy, frozen feel. If this was deliberate in the design by Lush then I certainly take my hats of to them. Out of all the bath bombs I have had, this has got to be by far one of the best I have used. It is definitely up there in my top 5!
Towards the end, the bomb starts to rotate giving
beautiful swirls of loveliness 
When first looking at the bomb, I originally thought it wouldn't really do much visually but how wrong I was. Once the bomb splits in half and finishes, the fluffy cloud like white disappears and leaves a bath of crystal iced blue waters with an absolutely incredible amount of lustre below the surface. the silver lustre swirls, curls and twirls in waves creating such a magical, relaxing spectacle to watch. The scent is one of my favourites. Perfect for a truly relaxing, first class experience. When my sister and I visit Lush Oxford Street again next month, this is certainly one I will be rushing to get and stock up!
