The Big Squeeze Bath Bomb is a brand-new, limited-edition product from Lush’s 2024 Valentine’s Day line.
Valentine’s day is traditionally celebrated with your romantic partner, but this year Lush have made several products that cater to a celebration of love in general, love for your friends, love for your family, all things LOVE.
Big Squeeze is a two coloured, heart shaped bath bomb; One side is purplish blue, and the other side is pink. Each side has a little cartoon face on and one arm each, they are embracing each other in a ‘big squeeze’ of a cuddle!
The Big Squeeze bath bomb contains both juniperberry and sweet wild orange giving it a sour grape scent.
Being honest as always, it’s not one of my favourite Lush scents, it’s quite artificial and incredibly strong but I’ll speak more about that when we get onto what happens to the bath bomb once it is placed into your bath water.
Weighing in at approximately 135g each, the Big Squeeze bath bomb is quite big but thinner than your average Lush bath bomb. I have heard of some people snapping it in half to use over two baths or to share it with a friend, but I wanted to use my one whole.
As soon as the Big Squeeze bath bomb touches the water you are greeted with a gentle stream of purplish blue and pink bubbles. The coloured bubbles are incredibly foamy, growing as the bath bomb fizzes away.
The Big Squeeze bath bomb is not fantastic bath-art-wise despite it being two very bold colours, I was expecting a little more bath art but with it being a fast fizzer it wasn’t meant to be.
The Big Squeeze bath bomb takes approximately three and a half minutes to fully dissolve and turns your bath water a barley-pink colour. The scent is still strong but slightly gentler once the bath bomb has fully dissolved.
Which, I find is a much more tolerable scent-strength for a bath bomb with a fragrance this powerful.
I found the waters left behind by the Big Squeeze bath bomb smooth and silky to the touch. The scent remains in your bathroom (although not as strongly) for a good two to three hours after you pull the plug too.
The scent can also still be detected on your skin long after getting out of the bath but again, not nearly as strong as the bath bomb’s scent is before you place it into your bath water; I actually much prefer the sour grape scent when it is more subtle.
How it smells on my skin once I’m out of the bath actually won the product over for me.
In the end I really enjoyed using the Big Squeeze bath bomb, I’d have maybe liked some more bath art from it but that’s just me being picky!
