The Fairy Trumpets Bath Bomb started its Lush life as one of the 54 Harajuku, Japan store exclusives. At the time of writing this review, it is now available from Lush’s UK website and in chosen UK stores. I picked mine up on the Lush Liverpool stores opening day back in March 2019.
Unfortunately there are rumours currently circulating that now the ’30 years of the bath bomb’ celebrations are nearing an end, Fairy Trumpets will be leaving alongside several other bath bombs into Lush-product-retirement. Whether or not Fairy Trumpets will still remain in the Liverpool and Harajuku store has yet to be confirmed.
I should imagine a lot of the bath bombs put on the alleged discontinue list are to make way for this years Halloween and Christmas lines. Please remember, as of right now this is only speculation. Nothing has yet to be confirmed, Lush love to keep us on our toes BUT wouldn’t it be wonderful if they had exclusive Winter items in both their Liverpool and Harajuku stores? It would make me feel a lot better about losing so many of the Celebration bath bombs if these rumours are true. 🤞
The first thing I noticed about the Fairy Trumpets bath bomb was its peculiar design. I have heard some very funny ideas from customers trying to guess what inspired the design. My favourite was someone comparing it to their tonsils while suffering with tonsillitis. NOT something that makes me want to bathe in its waters but it did make me laugh hysterically. I can safely say that tonsillitis was not the inspiration, its design is in fact based on the flower of the same name.
If you enjoyed last Winters Princess Bomb Bomb bath bomb then I’d say you will most certainly want to give Fairy Trumpets a go. It contains both chamomile and rosewood oils as well as a small helping of orange flower absolute and popping candy. Its scent is a very-uplifting-floral blend, chamomile and rosewood make for an interesting mix. I’m not one that normally goes for floral scents opting for citrus or minty products instead but there is something about the Fairy Trumpets bath bomb that leaves me so very relaxed.
Sadly all of the Fairy Trumpet bath bombs that I have used have been very quick fizzers and only one has had popping candy in that I have noticed. I strongly advise looking on Instagram under the hashtag, #FairyTrumpetsBathBomb for more photos as I have seen some wonderful in action shots on there, my photos do the product no justice at all!
Although my Fairy Trumpet bath bombs didn’t put on much of a performance they did always create beautiful amber-coloured-silky-smooth-bath-water. As I said earlier, laying back in its waters left me feeling completely relaxed. If you’re feeling a little flat or down in the dumps, a Fairy Trumpets bath will certainly lift your spirits and bring a sprinkling of magic to your day.
The Fairy Trumpets scent is quite a mature floral fragrance, I’d imagine it going down well with an older crowd. The ‘fairy’ aspect of it was however what drew me in first and although I’m hurtling towards my 30’s, I still see myself as a younger customer. I therefore feel safe in saying that this bath bomb could be enjoyed by those of all ages! 😊
