Magic Potion Bath Bomb from Lush

The first brand-new-product from Lush’s 2023 Halloween line that I wanted to try was the Magic Potion Bath Bomb AND it did not disappoint! 

This year’s Halloween line is absolutely incredible and dare I say it… Much better than the Christmas line. 

The only thing that could have made this year’s Halloween line any better was if Lush had brought back the Calacas scented, Monsters’ Ball bath bomb. That or the Big Foot bath bomb (also Calacas scented).

The Halloween line is never truly complete if a Calacas scented product isn’t included but the Magic Potion bath bomb impressed me enough to look the other way about it.

The Magic Potion bath bomb contains plenty of popping candy, bergamot oil, jasmine absolute, ylang ylang oil and powders of nettle and dragon fruit.

It shares its scent with the Northern Lights bath bomb and Christmas Eve bubble bar, both of these happen to be favourites of mine.

I still haven’t forgiven Lush for not re-releasing the Northern Lights bath bomb after its last run in the Christmas 2016 line but finally, with Magic Potion, we have a bath bomb with the same fragrance at least!

The Magic Potion’s scent is a musky, floral scent. It’s a beautiful and refreshing fragrance that has a lot of depth and layers, the more you focus on its scent, the more your nose seems to pick up on.

It’s not a particularly strong scent although some may say it is because it is quite a unique blend of ingredients.

Each Magic Potion bath bomb is approximately 100g each, the only negative point I can find to say about them is that all of the ones I ordered online arrived rather worse-for-wear.

It is a bath bomb I will be grabbing a few more of before Halloween is over BUT I’ll be picking them up in store so that I can pick them out myself.

As soon as the Magic Potion bath bomb touches the water you are greeted with a burst of pink, blue, purple and turquoise foam, as well as snap, crackle and pops from the popping candy.

The Magic Potion bath bomb is also lightly decorated with golden shimmer, and it isn’t long until that golden shimmer starts to glide into your bath water too.

I know I say this in almost every bath bomb review but the bath art photos in this review do the Magic Potion bath bomb no justice at all.

Once I am able to pop into a Lush store to pick a non-crumbly version of Magic Potion up, I may update the photos in this review the bath art potential is so much better than I show here.

The Magic Potion bath bomb takes approximately 7 to 8 minutes to fully dissolve, leaving you with plenty of time to sit back and enjoy the show that it puts on.

I found the purple waters left behind by the Magic Potion bath bomb so smooth.

Its scent can still be detected on your skin long after getting out of the bath, in fact, I could still smell traces of it on my skin long into the following morning after using it. My skin still felt silky smooth for the whole of the next day too.

I really LOVE this bath bomb, as I said earlier those ordered by post could do with a more thorough level of quality control but other than that, it’s a dream product. I pray that the Magic Potion bath bomb isn’t a one-year, one-hit wonder as it really is bath bomb perfection!
