Magik CBD Bath Bomb from Lush

Lush have recently added four new ‘Magik’ products to their CBD range, today I will be reviewing the brand new Magik Bath Bomb, also known as the Magik CBD Epsom Salt Cube.

As someone who often struggles to switch off and relax, anything that can help me get to that state of mind quicker is worth a try.

I was lucky enough to be gifted all four of the new CBD products from Lush, I am so incredibly grateful for Lush’s generosity yet again; Every time I get a package from them it’s like all my Christmases have come at once!

Before we delve deeper into my review of the Magik bath bomb I want to talk about the CBD element of all the new products…

CBD is short for cannabidiol; Cannabidiol is the non-psychoactive and non-addictive compound found in hemp plants, in simple terms it means using this Lush product won’t get you high.

There has been a lot of research conducted around the use of CBD oil and it is said to have a long list of health-benefits.

It is said to help with stress management as well as aiding those suffering with anxiety and/or sleep problems, it has also been proven to help people like me, who suffer from medical conditions that cause wide-spread chronic pain.

The very reason I first got into Lush was because I was looking for non-medicinal alternatives to prescription painkillers, so it is only natural for me to jump at the chance to try each of the new CBD products.

The Magik bath bomb is pink and green and made into a cube shape, it’s the same design as the Salt Water Soother and Deep Sleep bath bombs.

All of my reviews on this blog are my own personal experience with Lush products. I’ve had a few messages from people who haven’t tried the Magik products yet but have some experience with CBD say things like, ‘this won’t work for…’

I’m always open to listen to other people’s thoughts and opinions but I feel my job in a review like this is to tell you how I found the product AFTER I have used it and not before, so here we go!

As well as the CBD hemp seed oil, the Magik bath bomb also contains Epsom salts, chamomile blue oil, jasmine absolute, violet leaf absolute, ylang ylang absolute and shiitake mushroom powder.

Its shares its scent with the Ultra Violet bubble barWild Violet Co-Mingle body scrub and the other three products from the same new ‘Magik’ line.

As soon as you place the Magik bath bomb into your bath water you are greeted with a gentle hiss of light pink and green bubbles. The hot bath water ensures that as soon as the Magik bath bomb encounters it, you’re hit with the gentle but sweet smell of violets, it’s an incredibly fresh and natural fragrance.

There are herbal and grassy elements to its scent too. I find this bath bombs blend of ingredients as incredibly grounding and surprisingly warming in a Summertime way; A weird description I know but it’s what I smell and how I feel using it.

It only takes the Magik bath bomb two minutes to fully dissolve leaving you with more time to sit back and relax in the hot water that hasn’t had too much time to cool down yet… BLISS!

Magik is not much of a bath art bath bomb but the small amount of green and pink bubbles it does create are very pretty.

As soon as the bath bomb is put in, the Epsom salts fall to the bottom of the bath before also dissolving. Any Lush product that has Epsom salts in ALWAYS creates the most incredibly soft water and the Magik bath bomb did not disappoint in this department.

After use, my skin is perfectly hydrated and feels clean and silky-soft too. For me in particular, I have always found this products Lush-scent-family quite calming so it wouldn’t be fair to assume that my feeling more relaxed was all down to the CBD content in it. BUT I did leave the bath feeling very relaxed and refreshed, CBD or not. Overall, I love the Magik bath bomb!

Passion Bath Bomb from Lush

Today I am reviewing the brand-new Passion Bath Bomb from Lush’s 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection.

Much like the Thermal Waves bath bomb from the same collection, Passion has such striking colours that it demands your immediate attention.

The Passion bath bomb is a swirling mix of hot pink, red and yellow. As soon as I had the bath bomb in my possession, I couldn’t wait to give it a go.

The Passion bath bomb contains buchu, litsea cubeba and sweet wild orange oils.

It shares its scent with several past products including, the Passion shower gel, Cyclops bubble barSpongeBob bath bomb and also the Tropical Co-Mingle body scrub.

Lush describe the Passion bath bomb as ‘mouth-wateringly juicy and fruity’. It’s a rich passion fruit like fragrance and the perfect pick-me-up. It reminds me of the Summer and long days on the beach.

Each of the Passion bath bombs are approximately 180g each fitting easily in my hand.

As soon as the Passion bath bomb comes into contact with your bath water there is an explosion of thick tropical coloured foam.

The hot pink, red and yellows of the bath bomb start to bleed into each other making it look like the Passion bath bomb also has lighter pink and orange colours in it too.

It doesn’t take long for the bath bomb to start spinning and creating the most gorgeous swirling bath art.

As always, the photos in this review do the bath bomb no justice at all, the colours that spill out of the Passion bath bomb are so bright and bold. My camera couldn’t quite capture its true beauty.

The Passion bath bomb takes about 8 minutes to fully dissolve, the water left behind is a bright shade of orange and it’s super silky feeling.

Sat in its tropical waters, I feel like I am in a fish-bowl-cocktail and not a bathtub at all. I don’t think a bath bomb has ever made me want to be on a sunny holiday more!

The Passion bath bombs scent intensifies somewhat once it is in the bathtub, there’s just something about its scent and all of the colours that spill out of it that leaves me feeling happy.

Using the Passion bath bomb left my skin lightly fragranced and soft to the touch. I couldn’t help but notice how hydrated my skin felt and how much brighter it looked after using it too.

Overall, I am completely in love with the Passion bath bomb. I have thoroughly enjoyed every bath bomb from the World Bath Bomb day release that I have tried so far but the Passion bath bomb, has really made a lasting impression on me.

It’s beautiful scent and array of Summery colours has made this bath bomb one of my all-time favourites!

See And Be Seen Body Wash from Lush

The See And Be Seen Body Wash is another product from the Lush X Bridgerton line, I was lucky enough to be given a pot of it by Lush.

I have really enjoyed exploring each of the new Bridgerton products, they are all so carefully thought out.

Lush describe the See And Be Seen body wash as a product that will have you ‘smelling decadent and ready to step into your spotlight’.

As you can see from the photos I have included in this review, the See And Be Seen body wash has such an exquisitely decorated label, fitting right in with all things Bridgerton!


The See And Be Seen body wash contains a fresh rose petal infusion, cornstarch, xantham gum, fresh strawberry juice, Pakistani rose absolute and rose, geranium and lemon oils.

It is a dark red colour and shares its scent with the best-selling Rose Jam shower gel so has naturally received a lot of interest, out of all of the new Bridgerton products See And Be Seen body wash is the one I have received the most questions about.

Although Rose Jam is primarily a floral based, rose-rich fragrance, it also has other depths to it with the addition of the lemon oil; This pinch of zest really rounds off the scent in an almost musky way.

Rose scents are often associated with the older generations but the See And Be Seen body wash has proven popular for all ages.

Its consistency is very similar to a shower slime, but it separates a bit easier. Lush’s shower slimes can be stretched while still intact, whereas the See And Be Seen body wash you can pull bits off of, almost in a clump. If I had to compare its consistency with something I’d say it is most like a jam.

I am pleased to say that a very small amount of the See And Be Seen body wash goes a long way making its higher price easier to swallow.

A small scoop easily lathers up, I recommend adding hot shower water to help get it going.

See And Be Seen body wash smells heavenly so it’s very tempting to overindulge, I however feel the less you use the better the washing experience. Too much product makes it harder to lather up and it becomes way too creamy in an unpleasant way. Remember, with this body wash, less is more!

I don’t think I’ve ever used such a small amount of a product with such amazing results on my skin before. A small amount of See And Be Seen body wash leaves my skin clean, hydrated and silky smooth to the touch.

Its scent remains on your skin for several hours after you have used it and your skin also stays hydrated and soft right up until your next shower.

Overall, I feel as if the See And Be Seen body wash is a fantastic edition to the ever growing, Rose-Jam-scented-products-family and I feel the scent fits right into the Bridgerton theme perfectly.

I’d be interested to see other products come out in the same jam-like consistency; I feel with you needing to use such a small amount per wash it could be a decent way of saving money without losing the thrill of using a luxury product!
