Lush Aubergine/Eggplant Bath Bomb Review

 

My last bath bomb, which means I'm already plotting my next Lush order. I'm impatiently waiting to see if they will have the BOGO sale before I order on boxing day. Either the US site, the UK site, or the DE site. Fingers crossed they do. Anyway,  I wasn't even interested in this one until I read it was scented with the perfume that is a mixture of all Lush scents together. Then it became intriguing. This was part of the Valentine range to go with the Peachy bath bomb. You know the peach and the eggplant? Yeah. 

Lush claims:

Feeling fruity? Here’s a tip! After swiping right, the easiest way to express our feelings is with the power of an emoji. When you need something that really hits the spot, pop this sweet and zingy bath bomb into the water and enjoy a steamy soak in deep purple waters.

Benefits:

- Floral and woody ho wood oil is perfect for tranquil bathing.

- Tonka absolute’s sweet and decadent fragrance soothes and comforts.

- Litsea cubeba has a sweet lemony aroma that uplifts and relaxes

Again..this is another that smells nothing like it's description. I don't get bergamot, ho wood, or may chang. But it does smell really good. More of an "exotic" one, which is my preference for bath time. although I can get with citrus every now and again, and florals (Jasmine). I'm not big on candy scents though. I loved the scent. I could see myself repurchasing and even buying it in the perfume! It isn't what you would expect from something shaped like an Eggplant.  

I wish the scent lingered some. When I washed it down the drain...all of the scent disappeared. 

It's another purple maker. So many of the bath bombs I've used this year have been purple. Which is good, because I Love purple. It's my 2nd favorite color. It has nice "bath art" and leave you with slightly glittery deep purple water. 

The ingredients aren't all natural...but as always I feel like Lush balances everything. It has all the essential oils it mentioned and even some Eggplant Puree. Not sure what it does for the skin..but I dig it. 

Ingredients:

Baking Soda, Citric Acid, Bergamot Oil, Ho Wood Oil, Litsea Cubeba Oil, Tonka Absolute, Fresh Eggplant, Cream of Tartar ,Water, Titanium Dioxide, Cornstarch, Sodium Coco Sulfate, Propylene Glycol, Synthic Glitter, Tin Oxide, Cocamidopropyl, Alpha Iso-Methyl, Ionone, Benzyl Alchohol, Butylphenyl Methylproprional, Citral, Coumarin, Hydroxycitronellal, Limonene, Linalool, Perfume, Colour

Fun Fact- Did you know Eggplant is a berry? I just read that on the Lush page. I had no idea!
