Today I am reviewing the brand-new Time of the Season Bath Bomb from Lush’s 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection.
To look at, the Time of the Season bath bomb reminds me of the Frozen bath bomb because Like Frozen, the Time of the Season bath bomb is all one colour and looks like it is wearing a darker coloured belt.
Where the Frozen bath bomb is light blue, Time of the Season is yellow and where the Frozen bath bomb is dark blue, Time of the Season is bright pink.
The Time of the Season bath bomb contains dark Sumatran patchouli oil, grapefruit oil, organic neroli oil and orange flower absolute.
It’s a brand-new scent-family from Lush and seems to have divided Lush fans. Again, I want to reference the Frozen bath bomb as elements of Time of the Seasons scent remind me of it a lot, it has the same zesty, sharp bitterness because of the grapefruit and neroli.
I think these are the ingredients that make and break it for some. I however really like the bitterness of the grapefruit, the other ingredient that really comes through scent wise is the patchouli oil. On paper it sounds like such a strange mix, but I think they all work really well together.
It’s an incredibly unique scent, a very bold choice from Lush, I like it when Lush are brave with their fragrances.
Lush describe the Time of the Season bath bomb as ‘a bath bomb that’ll take you to the bathing promised lands’ and claim that it is ‘the time of the season for loving yourself’ and that the bath bomb will ‘gently restore your composure, while instilling an overall feeling of peace.’
Each of the Time of the Season bath bombs are approximately 180g each fitting easily in my hand.As soon as the Time of the Season bath bomb meets your bath water there is an explosion of thick yellow and pink foam (as seen in the photo directly below.)
The hot pink and yellow starts to spread out before orange begins to spill out of the Time of the Season bath bomb too.
It doesn’t take long for the bath bomb to start spinning in the water and wow does it spit out an insane amount of absolutely stunning bath art.
As always, the photos in this review do the bath bomb no justice at all, the colours that spill out of the Time of the Season bath bomb are so bright, bold and beautiful, I never wanted it to end.
The Time of the Season bath bomb takes just under 10 minutes to fully dissolve, the water left behind is a bright shade of orange and it feels silky soft on your skin.
Many people have compared the Time of the Season bath bomb to the Passion bath bomb (from the same 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection) because it has such similar colouring, this is true, maybe Lush could have picked Time of the Season to have different colours to make it more unique, but honestly? Both it and Passion are such good bath bombs that smell completely different; therefore, I really don’t think it matters.
Using the Time of the Season bath bomb left my skin lightly fragranced and soft to the touch, I could still smell it on my skin several hours after using the bath bomb too. I also didn’t need to moisturise after getting out of the bath which is always a plus… I do love a time saver!
Overall, I am completely in love with the Time of the Season bath bomb. The bath art was phenomenal. If I knew the bath bomb was this good, I’d have used it weeks ago.
I always say the bath art photos in my bath bomb reviews do the bath bombs no justice at all, but the photos included on the Lush website for this bath bomb don’t show its true potential either. Just look at the photo above compared to those on the Lush website. I can’t believe how different they are!?!!
I admit, the Time of the Season scent is quite an acquired taste, if you’re not sure on its scent I do still recommend giving it a go, sometimes bath bombs can surprise you. Time of the Season is a true work of art, what an incredible bath bomb from start to finish!
