For plastic-free-July, Lush collaborated with the American animated television series, SpongeBob SquarePants to help keep our oceans and waterways clean. One part of the collaboration was the Lush X SpongeBob collection and the other was a SpongeBob, Lush Kitchen exclusive themed box.
Today I’ll be reviewing the SpongeBob Bath Bomb from the main Lush X SpongeBob collection.
What I loved the most about the Lush X SpongeBob collaboration is that you could enjoy all of the products even if you aren’t a fan/are not familiar with the cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants. I happen to be a lifelong fan of SpongeBob so was generally so excited to see so many amazing SpongeBob themed products!
The SpongeBob bath bomb is a bath bomb shaped as the main character of the SpongeBob SquarePants television series.
He is a bright yellow, happy-go-lucky, accident-prone sea sponge with brown short square shaped pants, a white shirt and red tie. He is often unintentionally annoying and quite often strange but has a heart of gold who would do anything for his loved ones and probably strangers too.
The SpongeBob bath bomb shares its scent with the Cyclops bubble bar from Lush’s 2022 Halloween line. It’s a fairly new scent to Lush but it’s made the odd appearance through several new products and has proven very popular. It is described as a ‘passion fruit’ fragrance.
The SpongeBob bath bomb contains a long list of ingredients, it has pineapple powder, popping candy and the following essential oils; Buchu oil, litsea cubeba oil and sweet wild orange oil.
The bath bombs passion fruit like fragrance really fits in with the tropical theme of the SpongeBob television series. The end credit song played in my head on a loop even while I was just thinking about the bath bomb while writing this review.
Its scent is super uplifting and the more I sniff it the more I want it, it is simply delicious! It makes me want to book a sunny holiday where I can sit on a beach, sand between my toes, drinking fruity cocktails.
As soon as you place the SpongeBob bath bomb into your bath water a burst of yellow foam spills out of it. Slowly but surely the SpongeBob bath bomb bubbles away, filling your bathroom with its mouth wateringly delightful scent.
I ignorantly assumed that the SpongeBob bath bomb would just be the standard, yellow-only bath bomb that didn’t have any other colour inside of it, a bit like the Avobath bath bomb. I was however very wrong…
After approximately 3 minutes the popping candy begins to snap, crackle and pop away and an aqua blue colour begins to make a show in amongst the yellow foam.
The photos I took and have included in this review do the SpongeBob bath bomb no justice at all, the bath art it created was incredible. It reminded me of the bath art that the long discontinued Fizzbanger bath bomb used to create. The blue and yellow colours clash so perfectly.
It takes about 6 or 7 minutes for the SpongeBob bath bomb to fully dissolve, the water it leaves behind is bright green thanks to the mix of yellow and aqua blue bath art.
I didn’t find the bath bomb drying on my skin, but I wouldn’t say it left me particularly hydrated either. Its passion fruit scent stayed on my skin long after getting out of the bath.
As seen in the photo above, hidden inside of the SpongeBob bath bomb are SpongeBob’s pants!
Overall, I really enjoyed the SpongeBob bath bomb. It ticked so many boxes in what I like in a bath bomb, it smelt great, lifted my mood, and created the most gorgeous bath art too. The hidden paper pants also put a huge smile on my face.
The Lush collaboration products just keep getting better and better, what a fantastic and fun product the SpongeBob bath bomb is!
