Moon On A Stick Bath Bomb from Lush

The Moon On A Stick Bath Bomb is as beautiful as it is peculiar. It was originally released by Lush over a decade ago as a Lush-Forum-exclusive but recently made a comeback as an item in the October 2024 Lush Kitchen Subscription Box.

Its design is a little strange but there is a story behind it… It is inspired by the phrase, “What more do you want, the moon on a stick?”

While the stick doesn’t add any practical function to this product, it gives it a fun and unique touch, making this bath bomb the one that immediately catches your eye in a room full of Lush products.

Moon On A Stick is a grey-white colour and just like the actual moon, has lots of craters all over its surface, it’s round and is a similar size to the standard sized Lush bath bombs such as Twilight and Intergalactic.

As I said earlier, the stick attached to this bath bomb doesn’t serve any practical purpose, it is purely decorational. Some customers choose to remove the stick, while others keep the stick in.

I decided to remove my bath bombs stick just before I placed it into the water.

The Moon On A Stick bath bomb contains some of the following ingredients: jasmine absolute, neroli oil and ylang ylang oil.

It shares its scent with the Ghost shower gel, another retro product I can never get enough of.

Its scent is best described as slightly creamy with a light sprinkling of something floral. It’s a very subtle scent so better suited to customers that prefer the less in-your-face Lush-scent-families.

As soon as you place the Moon On A Stick bath bomb into your bath water it immediately starts to hiss; Grey-white coloured foam starts to spill out of it as it dissolves.

Within about 30 seconds of introducing the Moon On A Stick bath bomb to the water, a streak of blue bubbles then begins to trickle out of it.

Slowly but surely, more blue streaks burst out of the Moon On A Stick bath bomb and that’s when the bath art well and truly begins.

The Moon On A Stick bath bomb really is full of surprises. It looks so plain on the outside (and although I have learnt to never judge a bath bomb by its cover) I wasn’t expecting it to be as mesmerising as it was at all!

The photos in this review do the bath art created by the Moon On A Stick bath bomb no justice whatsoever. I also realised way too late that the bath bomb contained miniature dissolvable stars in it too.

After approximately 8 minutes, the Moon On A Stick bath bomb has fully dissolved; The water left behind is a deep shade of space blue.

A good long soak in a Moon On A Stick bath left my skin delicately scented and feeling soft and hydrated, this lasted for several hours after I got out of the bath.

Overall, I think this bath bomb is spectacular, from its name and the inspiration behind it, to its scent and stellar performance in the water.

It’s been a while since I’ve used a bath bomb with bath art this gorgeous!I really hope we get the chance to buy this bath bomb again very soon as it’s absolute perfection.

Peace, Love and Pizza Bath Bomb from Lush

Lush’s latest collaboration with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles came out at the start of July 2024 and has been flying off the shelves.

The limited edition TMNT x Lush collaboration included a TMNT themed Lush Kitchen Subscription Box and also a collection of online and in store products too.

Today I’ll be reviewing the Peace, Love and Pizza Bath Bomb that is a part of the in store and online items.

I was lucky enough to receive a Peace, Love and Pizza bath bomb in a surprise box sent from Lush. The excitement of receiving a PR package from Lush never gets old, I am so very grateful every time, thank you, Lush!


The Peace, Love and Pizza bath bomb is made in the shape of a slice of pizza. It is green, purple and has a yellow bath melt cheese and a red soap ‘soapperoni’ topping. If you’re lucky enough to live near a store then you’d have seen that the Peace, Love and Pizza bath bombs are all displayed in a TMNT pizza box too.

Each of the bath bombs are approximately 135g each so quite big. Each of the slices fits perfectly in my hand.

The Peace, Love and Pizza bath bomb contains fairtrade organic mango butter, fresh garlic infusion, lemon grass oil, basil oil, oregano oil, benzoin resinoid, tonka absolute, vanilla absolute, rapeseed oil, coconut oil, cupuaçu butter, organic illipe butter, extra virgin coconut oil, glycerine and paprika oleoresin.

On paper, it doesn’t sound like something you’d want to really bathe in, but it smells lovely. It’s a very loose version of the smell of pizza, you get herbal vibes but also fruity notes too. Pineapple apparently belongs on TMNT pizza!

As the Peace, Love and Pizza bath bomb comes in to contact with your bath water there is a huge hiss as green foam starts to ooze out of it. After a minute, purple streaks come out of it too. The foam then starts to thin out, slowly turning your bath water green.

The bath bombs scent isn’t at all in-your-face or overpowering, it’s sweet and gentle. When I first read the list of this bath bombs ingredients, I wasn’t sure that I’d like it as a cosmetic product at all, garlic? basil? oregano? It however all strangely works.

Lush are forever proving me wrong. It just goes to show that simply listing an items ingredients list, doesn’t ever completely describe the final scent of a Lush product.

After about six or seven minutes the Peace, Love and Pizza bath bomb is completely taken over by the water.

It didn’t create very much bath art but the red ‘soapperoni’ part had me very entertained. I grabbed it to lather it up and it looked like I had smeared myself in the blood of my enemies, I didn’t include a photo in this review but if you want to see it, drop me a message…

Fortunately, the red came off as soon as I placed my hands back into the water. My favourite thing about the Peace, Love and Pizza bath bomb however has to be how it left my skin feeling. 

My skin has never felt so soft after such a short soak. It seems as if Lush got the bath bomb and melt ratio perfect in the Peace, Love and Pizza bath bomb.

Overall, I loved the Peace, Love and Pizza bath bomb. I said earlier that I wasn’t expecting to like it much as the ingredient list was a little crazy, but it was lovely and is a good example of why I like to try every product at least once!

Four Brothers Bath Bomb from Lush

Lush’s latest collaboration with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is finally out online and in stores and I couldn’t be any more excited!

The limited edition TMNT x Lush collaboration included a TMNT themed Lush Kitchen Subscription Box and also a collection of online and in store products too.

Today I’ll be reviewing the Four Brothers Bath Bomb which happens to be the only TMNT item that was in both the Lush Kitchen Subscription Box and in stores and online to purchase separately.

I was lucky enough to receive a Four Brothers bath bomb in a surprise box sent from Lush. The excitement of receiving a PR package from Lush never gets old, I am so very grateful every time, thank you, Lush!

The Four Brothers bath bomb comes in four different colours and are the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles heads. Much like their characters, the bath bomb is all green apart from their eye masks.

The turtles head with the red mask is the character Raphael, blue is Leonardo, purple is Donatello and the orange (the one I have pictured in this review) is Michelangelo.

Each of the bath bombs are approximately 440g each, which I believe may be the biggest bath bomb Lush have ever released?!!

The best thing about each of these bath bombs is that a different soap (made into the shape of the Ninja Turtles favourite things) is hidden inside of them!

The Four Brothers bath bomb contains fresh oregano infusion, rapeseed oil, coconut oil, glycerine, lemongrass oil, bergamot oil and organic virgin coconut oil.

It shares its scent with the, Avobath bath bomb. Its scent is super refreshing, citrus-rich and full of zing. Just a quick whiff of it is enough to give you a little boost of energy.

It’s quite a powerful fragrance and one I often crave when I’m feeling a bit sluggish and low on energy.

I always find Lush products that are made into characters very hard to use. With the Four Brothers bath bomb being the face of a character loved by so many people around the world, it felt very strange to use and never see again… BUT, I just kept thinking about the hidden soap inside that I would never see if I didn’t use it. 😏

As the Four Brothers bath bomb comes in to contact with your bath water there is a huge hiss as green foam starts to ooze out of it. After a minute, the foam starts to thin out but is still a bright and bold green colour.

The lemongrass and bergamot in the Four Brothers bath bomb really come through once the bath bomb is in the hot water, it’s a really uplifting fragrance so perfect to use first thing in the morning or for a boost of energy in the afternoon or before a night out.

Once the Four Brothers bath bomb is taken over by the water it starts to spin, the bath bombs mask colour then starts to spill out of the bath bomb too. For me, with the ‘Mikey’ Four Brothers bath bomb, I got orange and green bath art swirls.

With the orange mask part of the bath bomb being so small in comparison to the rest of it being all green, I wasn’t expecting much bath art so was pleasantly surprised to see so much orange.

After just under ten minutes the bath bomb has fully dissolved, the water left behind is so incredibly green. It’s also silky soft thanks to the coconut oil in it.

The water left my skin feeling soft and well hydrated long after getting out of the bath too because of the glycerine.

Overall, I loved the Four Brothers bath bomb, I was so busy watching the orange and green swirls coming out of it that I completely forgot about the soap inside of it.

My soap was the orange pizza slice. (see photo above). Talking about the soap as a separate product, I don’t think I’ve ever had such a strongly fragranced soap from Lush before.

I have left the soap on the side near my bath and every time I go past it, I am hit with the gorgeous Avobath scent. I’ve used it several times too and there’s still no sign of it getting any smaller or worn down.

The Four Brothers bath bomb has left me so excited to review the rest of the TMNT x Lush line!
