The One With Chamomile Bath Bomb from Lush

Out of the 29 bath bombs in the 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection, there are four special ones that can be categorised in their own little group. All of their names start with, ‘The One With…’ and each of them are mini bombshell-bath-bombs. (see photo of all four of them together in the photo directly below)

A bombshell bath bomb is a bath bomb with a little extra something inside. Usually, Lush make their bombshells a lot bigger, which is why I wrongly assumed that they were all just ordinary bath bombs…

I only found out that they were bombshell bath bombs after I had used one. The first one that I tried was, The One With Lavender bath bomb, followed by The One With Orange Slices bath bomb and then The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb. Today I am reviewing the fourth and final one, The One With Chamomile Bath Bomb.

On first appearance I thought that all of the, ‘The One With’ bath bombs were quite plain looking, especially compared to most of the other 29 bath bombs in the 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection. When sat amongst bath bombs such as the Thermal Waves or Passion bath bomb it’s easy to see why some customers would overlook the simpler looking, ‘The One With’ bath bombs.

The One With Chamomile bath bomb has a very uncomplicated design; It is sky blue and is the size and shape of the average Lush bath bomb. Decoration wise it has three chamomile flowers placed on its top, just like a beautiful fairy-like flower crown.

While I thought in a first impression that the, The One With Chamomile bath bomb looked plain; Having used a lot of Lush products over the years I am now a little wiser than I was and always have in the back of my mind that the plainer products can quite often be the products that surprise you the most. This is why I decided to get and give each of the, ‘The One With’ bath bombs a try.

I also must remind myself that not everyone favours the big, bold, eye-catching, all-bells-and-whistles bath bombs. Sometimes you just want a quick and simple bath but with a pinch of something extra and the, ‘The One With’ bath bombs are perfect for this!

The first time that I used The One With Chamomile bath bomb I was feeling tired after a very busy week. Chamomile is a popular ingredient in not just cosmetic products but herbal teas too.

Chamomile is renowned for its calming effects on your mind and body, using the, The One With Chamomile bath bomb just before bed can get you right on track for a better night’s sleep. Using The One With Chamomile followed by a chamomile and spearmint tea is my new favourite Sunday night bedtime routine!

Sometimes I fancy a bath bomb that spills out bright and colourful bath art but sometimes I’m not fussed with theatrics, just wanting to lay back and relax.

The, The One With Chamomile bath bomb contains dried roman chamomile flowers and roman chamomile oil.

The scent of The One With Chamomile bath bomb is as its name and overall ingredient list suggests, strictly chamomile.

It has a very gentle chamomile fragrance, which makes it perfect for anyone who doesn’t like their cosmetics products to be too in your face scent-wise.

With chamomile being such a gentle ingredient, Lush say on their website that the, The One With Chamomile bath bomb is suitable for use by children and those with sensitive skin too.

While some customers prefer the less in-your-face scents like the one The One With Chamomile bath bomb has, I feel it maybe could have had a bit more of a kick; I was surprised at how gentle a scent it was but hoped its scent would get a little stronger during use.

I did say earlier that I always expect the unexpected when I use Lush products and The One With Chamomile bath bomb was an experience indeed… As soon as the bath bomb encounters the water there is a gentle hiss of sky-blue bubbles fizzing out of it.

With The One With Chamomile being the last of the mini bombshell bath bombs that I tried, I did have more of an idea of what was coming.

Just like the other ‘The One With’ bath bombs, after about 40 seconds the One With Chamomile bath bomb suddenly sounds like something hollow filling up with water and air, I can only describe it as like the bath bomb is gulping.

Then a swarm of dried roman chamomile flowers burst out of it, spreading across the water’s surface. Even though I knew what to expect, the number of flowers still surprised me.

After the explosion of dried roman chamomile flowers, it took about two minutes and twenty seconds more for the bath bomb to fully dissolve, making this bath bombs ‘melt time’ three minutes exatly.

While I wasn’t expecting quite as much chamomile as it had and was a little shocked by the amount, it made for a great bathing experience. Clean up took a little longer than I like but I really think it was worth the extra effort. I felt like a mother duck rounding up all of her ducklings after a nice little swim downstream.

I scooped the chamomile flowers out with a sieve before pulling the plug. Afterwards transferring those flowers to my garden bin.

Overall, I loved the, The One With Chamomile bath bomb although I personally would have preferred it to have a slightly stronger scent, my skin did however enjoy it and I felt incredibly relaxed as soon as the bath bomb hit the water.

The One With Lemon Oil In Bath Bomb from Lush

Out of the 29 bath bombs in the 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection, there are four special ones that can be categorised in their own little group. All of their names start with, ‘The One With’ and each of them are mini bombshell-bath-bombs. (see photo of all four of them together in the photo below)

A bombshell bath bomb is a bath bomb with a little extra something inside. Usually, Lush make their bombshells a lot bigger, which is why I wrongly assumed that the four ‘The One With’ bombshells, were all just ordinary bath bombs…

I only found out that they were bombshell bath bombs after I had used one.

Today I am reviewing the, The One With Lemon Oil In Bath Bomb. On first appearance all of the, The One With bath bombs look quite plain when you compare them to most of the other 29 bath bombs in the 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection.

The One With Lemon Oil In has a very uncomplicated design; It’s a light shade of yellow and is the size and shape of the average Lush bath bomb. Decoration wise, it has a single dried lemon slice on its top.

While I thought on first impression that the, The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb looked plain; Having used a lot of Lush products over the years I am now a little wiser than I was and always have in the back of my mind that the plainer products can quite often be the products that surprise you the most.

This is why I decided to get and give each of the, ‘The One With’ bath bombs a go.

I also have to remind myself that not everyone favours the big, bold, eye-catching, all-bells-and-whistles bath bombs. Sometimes you just want a quick and simple bath but with that little something extra.

When you’re not looking to have a super fancy bath, ‘The One With’ bath bombs are the perfect choice. There’s no over-the-top bath-time theatrics, you simply throw it into the water then lay back and relax.

Different bath bombs have different ingredients in, and each ingredient can have a different effect on you.

I find citrus based products to be quite uplifting so out of the four mini bombshell bath bombs, The One With Lemon Oil In and The One With Orange Slices should both be good choices if you’re looking for a pick-me-up.

The One With Lemon Oil In contains dried lemon slices and Sicilian lemon oil.

The scent of The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb is as its name and overall ingredient list suggests, lemony. It is described on Lush’s website as a refreshing sweet lemon.

It doesn’t share its scent with any other Lush product and in comparison, to the other ‘The One With’ bath bombs scents, it is quite a weak one. I was a little surprised at how light of a scent it had but thought its scent may get stronger during use.

The One With Lemon Oil In was the third of the, ‘The One With’ bath bombs that I tried. The One With Lavender was the first. I wrote in my The One With Lavender review how surprised I was when I first used it because of the amount of lavender that was hidden inside of it.

I again was just as surprised when the, The One With Orange Slices bath bomb practically gave birth to a whole orange once placed into the water. With the lemon equivalent being called The One With Lemon Oil In (no mention of slices) I wasn’t expecting anything other than the bath bomb being a little oiler than normal.

You’d be a fool to not always expect the unexpected when using Lush products yet, with The One With Lemon Oil In being the third of the ‘The One With’ bath bombs I tried, I was quietly confident that I knew what was coming. Spoiler alert… I didn’t.

As soon as the, The One With Lemon Oil In comes into contact with water there’s an instant explosion. I managed to get the photo above within the first three seconds of using the bath bomb, after that, like the, The One With Orange Slices bath bomb, the One With Lemon Oil In also gave birth to what felt like a whole lemon worth of lemon slices; So much for it being only lemon oil.

Lush had successfully tricked me again!

The One With Lemon Oil In had completely dissolved in less than a minute. Leaving several lemon slices floating around the water’s surface. The water turns an almost glowing bright yellow colour.

The only negative thing I can pinpoint with the, The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb is how weak its scent is. I thought it may have got a little stronger when in use but if anything, I couldn’t smell anything at all by the time it had fully dissolved.

I didn’t feel nearly as refreshed with this bath bomb as I did the, The One With Orange Slices but my skin did feel soft and appeared brighter.

Clean up wasn’t difficult at all, simply scoop the fruit slices out and pop them in the bin. Some people are funny about ‘bits’ in their bath but I really enjoy the novelty of fruit floating around me, I much prefer it to flowers and petals!

Overall, I enjoyed using The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb, but I’d have liked its scent to be a little stronger.

The One With Orange Slices Bath Bomb from Lush

Out of the 29 bath bombs in the 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection, there are four special ones that can be categorised in their own little group. All of their names start with, ‘The One With…’ and each of them are mini bombshell-bath-bombs. (see photo of all four of them together in the photo below)

A bombshell bath bomb is a bath bomb with a little extra something inside. Usually, Lush make their bombshells a lot bigger, which is why I wrongly assumed that they were all just ordinary bath bombs…

I only found out that they were bombshell bath bombs after I had used one. Today I am reviewing the, The One With Orange Slices Bath Bomb.

On first appearance all of the, The One With bath bombs look quite plain when you compare them to most of the other 29 bath bombs in the 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection.

The One With Orange Slices has a very uncomplicated design; It’s a light shade of orange and is the size and shape of the average Lush bath bomb. Decoration wise, it has a single dried orange slice on its top.

While I thought in a first impression that the, The One With Orange Slices bath bomb looked plain; Having used a lot of Lush products over the years I am now a little wiser than I was and always have in the back of my mind that the plainer products can quite often be the products that surprise you the most.

This is why I decided to get and give each of the, ‘The One With’ bath bombs a go.

I also have to remind myself that not everyone favours the big, bold, eye-catching, all-bells-and-whistles bath bombs. Sometimes you just want a quick and simple bath but with that little something extra.

Sometimes I fancy a bath bomb that spills out bright and colourful bath art but on the night that I decided to use The One With Orange Slices, I wasn’t fussed with bath-time theatrics, I just wanted to wind down in a nice bath.

When feeling like this, the quicker a bath bomb dissolves the better. With the, The One With bath bombs not being bath-art bath bombs and fairly quick fizzers, I decided that it was the perfect occasion to try one.

The first time that I used The One With Orange Slices bath bomb I was feeling a little down in the dumps, I find citrus scents to be quite uplifting so out of the four mini bombshell bath bombs, The One With Orange Slices was an easy pick.

The One With Orange Slices bath bomb contains dried orange slices and Brazilian orange oil.

The scent of The One With Orange Slices bath bomb is as its name and overall ingredient list suggests, a beautiful citrus orange and is described on Lush’s website as ‘Simply the zest!’.

It doesn’t share its scent with the Lava Lamp bath bomb but it has the same orange sweetness that I really missed when the Lava Lamp bath bomb was discontinued. 

The One With Orange Slices scent is what I wish the Marmalade jelly bomb from 2017 had smelt like!

I did say earlier that I always expect the unexpected when I use Lush products and The One With Orange Slices bath bomb was an experience indeed. I did however have more of an idea on what was coming thanks to having already used the, The One With Lavender in bath bomb.

As soon as the bath bomb comes in to contact with the water there is a gentle hiss of light orange bubbles fizzing out of it.

It didn’t take long for the bath bomb to make a peculiar noise, it sounds just like something hollow filling up with water and air, almost like the bath bomb is gulping…

Then, what I can only describe as the bath bomb giving birth to lots of orange slices happens. Slice after slice appear as the orange bombshell bath bomb sizzles away.

After the multiple births of orange slices comes to an end, it took about one more minute for the bath bomb to fully dissolve. This last 60 seconds took the bath bombs total ‘melt time’ to three minutes exactly.

I admit, I had an idea of what was coming when I used the, The One With Orange Slices but I was still shocked at the amount of orange slices it actually had hidden inside of it!

Clean up wasn’t difficult at all, simply scoop the fruit slices out and pop them in the bin. Some people are funny about ‘bits’ in their bath but I really enjoyed the novelty of becoming a part of this orange slice mocktail.

Overall, I enjoyed using The One With Orange Slices bath bomb so much more than I thought I would, its scent is delicious, and I like how quick and easy it makes adding a little bit of luxury into a fuss free, quick yet relaxing bath time.
