Because all the cool kids are talking about LUSH

[moonwise]

Even on Fandom Wank!

I bought four LUSH bath bombs over the weekend when we visited New York: one Sex Bomb, one Blackberry, and two Happy Pills. Last night seemed like a good night to try one, because husband was engrossed in a movie I didn't find interesting.

Initial thought: "Waaaah! It's fizzing all over the tub like a highly fragrant firecracker! Cool! And it smells nice and makes the water all purply!"

Final thought: "Oh fuck, that purple dye is sticking to the sides of the tub. Dammit, that means I have to scrub out the bathtub. At 10:30 at night."

Conclusion: unless it's time to clean the bathroom, I'll stick with my Vitabath.

I really like the "Dream On" and "Waving not drowning" bath bombs. They are subtle as far as scent and color go, and they don't leave a mess in the tub. Very nice.

Sounds good - I'll have to check them out if I go to LUSH again!

Eee, yeah, check their website for reviews. Most reviewers mention the ones that stain/the ones you need to put in a stocking so you're not clogging the drain. Sex Bomb or Happy Pill shouldn't stain, though.

Thanks for the tip - I didn't know that some of them had floaty crap in them. We have enough trouble keeping our drains clear as it is.

I thought about leaving it until the next morning to let the shower wash it off, but my husband would have pissed and moaned about it. He gets bothered by stuff like that. :P

Some elbow grease and Soft Scrub worked fine, but I'll remember that for next time! :)
