Usually when I buy bath bombs from Lush, I buy only the big giant 6.3
ounce balls, only because I want more for my money. However when
something catches my eye as neat, I will give the smaller bombs a try.
I have used smaller 3.1 ounce bombs before, and usually they are
glorious, and give off just as much ooey gooey delicious scent and
moisturization as the larger bombs.
I have had my eye on one heart shaped bomb for quite some time now. The Tisty Tosty bath bomb.
On the www.Lush.com site it is a
plain looking white heart shaped bomb. Clearly you are able to recognize
the rose bud flowers that are stuck within the heart shaped little
bomb. I myself am not too fond of things floating in my tub...especially
foods; but seeing how this particular bomb came with flowers, it seemed
okay.
When Tisty Tosty came to my door, I opened the box and was immediately
greeted with a warm subtle hunt of rose. The smell was not granny like,
nor was it overpowering. It was decent, but nothing to make me go ga
ga. I figured though that once the bomb hit my bath water it would
really wake up. Many of Lush's products wake up once the water hits
them. The scent becomes stronger, and at times over bearing.
I ran my bath water, and got in. I then dropped the entire Tisty Tosty
bomb into the tub. It began to fizz wildly, and it let off a lovely
flower scent. It was rosy, but it also reminded me of something earthy,
like evergreen. I liked it, I liked it a lot.
The more Tisty Tosty melted the more silky my bath water felt. The
bomb though did not really color my water, it sort of left it a murky
milk color, which I did not mind at all.
However I noticed that as the bomb wore off and fizzed out, so did
it's flowery earthy scent. I was sort of disappointed, and hoped that at
least my skin held some scent after getting out.
I soaked in the tub for a good 20 minutes, and even though the scent
was gone, the silky feeling was not, so I enjoyed that for the time
being. I enjoyed the rose buds and petals that floated around the tub. I
knew cleaning them up afterward would be a pain though, but I tried not
to over think it, because the thought of cleaning up, would totally of
killed my relaxation buzz.
After getting out, my skin was left feeling like a silky rose petal!
Gorgeous! I picked up the left over rose buds and put them in the
garbage. The clean up was a cinch, and only consisted of me bending down
once. No big deal.
After leaving the bathroom, I smelled it. The subtle flower scent had
taken to my skin. It was very, very subtle, but it was present. However,
it vanished as soon as I was fully dry.
Overall:
Tisty Tosty was an okay bath bomb. I have used others that worked much
better. Although I enjoyed the silky feeling it left behind on my skin,
the bomb missed out in the scent department, which is unusual for Lush
products.
Recommendation:
If you can get it on sale, then yes...but other than that it really is not worth the $5.35 purchase.
