GRANNY TAKES A DIP - LUSH BATH BOMB REVIEW

When it comes to bath bombs, there is one store that automatically comes to mind - LUSH. There are so many different kinds to suit whatever you fancy. If somebody was to ask me my favourite bath bomb, the answer would usually be 'Twilight' , however when recently browsing the new summer collection I came across 'Granny Takes a Dip'. This bath bomb is brightly coloured and really stands out amongst the other items. Naturally, I couldn't not find out more, so I headed down to my  nearest Lush store to purchase it.

I absolutely love the appearance of Granny Takes a dip.Its different to the other bath bombs as it is in a circular shape rather than the typical 'ball' design. The bath bomb is made up of four vivid layers; bright pink on the very outer layer wrapping around baby blue, followed by red and finally a bright green circled core. It's vibrant and eye-catching, I love how the colours combine together to create something exciting.

Some of the featured ingredients of this bath bomb include lemon oil, which uplifts and refreshes you. Warming and clarifying black pepper oil, and also ginger, which is another refreshing ingredient which is also great for relaxing and soothing tense and aching muscles and joints.

When it comes down to the scent, I was not disappointed. As soon as I removed Granny Takes a Dip from its wrapping, A wave of aroma filled the room. Much like the appearance, the bath bomb has a unique and warm fragrance to it. In my opinion, the smell reminded me of something similar to a lemon sherbet sweet, with a layer of warmth and slight hint of creamy vanilla to it.

I usually use half of a bath bomb when it is a large one, but I decided to treat myself and use the whole thing. I am so glad I did as the result was amazing. This is by far the prettiest, most colourful bath I have ever had. It is slow fizzing, similarly to the Twilight bath ballistic, and each colour slowly disperses throughout the bath tub, swirling into one another to create a psychedelic sea of multi coloured patterns across the water. As each colour begins to dissolve, you are left with beautiful light violet shade waters.

The bath bomb takes at least 10 minutes to completely fizzle out. Priced at £3.25 it is one of the pricier bath bombs, however you can easily cut it in half to get 2 uses from it. I personally think its a steal given its size and believe everyone should try it, even if it's just once. Let me know if you do in the comments!
