Up, Up and Away Bath Bomb from Lush

The Up, Up and Away Bath Bomb is a brand-new, limited-edition release from Lush’s 2025 Mother’s Day range.

Weighing in at only 90g, it is one of Lush’s smaller and more affordable bath bombs.

Up, Up and Away is a bright pink and violet hot-air-balloon shaped bath bomb. The balloon part of this bath bomb is pink and the basket violet.

The balloon is decorated with a zig zag pattern and 5 stars, while the basket has one love heart in its centre.

The Up, Up and Away bath bomb contains some of the following ingredients: Sicilian lemon oil, lemon myrtle oil, litsea cubeba and styrax resinoid.

The Up, Up and Away scent family is new to Lush and by far one of the juiciest they’ve made to date; I’d buy gallons of it in a body spray format!

The Sicilian lemon oil is probably what comes through the strongest, it’s a beautiful rich lemony fragrance that I can’t get enough of, it’s got me well and truly in the mood for Spring, it’s incredibly refreshing and has blown away all of the cobwebs of Winter for me. The more I sniff the Up, Up and Away bath bomb the more I want it.

The Up, Up and Away bath bomb fits snuggly in my hand and as I said earlier, (with it being one of Lush’s smaller bath bombs) it is one of the cheaper ones from the 2025 Mother’s Day line.

Lush have been creating more and more smaller bath bombs recently, and I’m all for it. The smaller ones quite often put the bigger ones to shame.

As soon as the Up, Up and Away bath bomb touches the water you are greeted with an explosion of hissing pink and violet foam. The violet foam however starts to look more of a light blue once in the water, the colours coming out of the Up, Up and Away bath bomb actually remind me of the Twilight bath bomb.

Despite the Up, Up and Away bath bomb being two different colours it doesn’t offer much bath-art-wise but its fruity scent and the hot pink colour that it turns your bath water makes it a must try.

The Up, Up and Away scent just gets better and better. Once you place it into the water, the scent completely takes over your bathroom. It’s not blow-your-head-off strong but it holds its ground, I could still smell it in the air long after the last drop of water went down the drain.

For such a small bath bomb I was surprised at how long it took to fully dissolve (approximately nine minutes), the water left behind is a bold and beautiful shade of hot pink, is silky smooth and incredibly hydrating on your skin too.

The best thing about the Up, Up and Away bath bomb for me has to be its scent. I could still smell it on my skin the morning after using it. DELICIOUS!

Overall, I absolutely adore the Up, Up and Away bath bomb and have my fingers crossed that Lush expand this scent family sooner rather than later.

Blooming Beautiful Marigold Bath Bomb from Lush

For Mother’s Day 2024, Lush have created three Blooming Beautiful bath bombs. Each have a different scent and they come in either a pink, yellow or a blue.

Today I am reviewing the yellow one, the Blooming Beautiful Marigold Bath Bomb.

Each of the Blooming Beautiful bath bombs are decorated with the same white petaled daisy on its top.

When the 2024 Mother’s Day collection was first announced, the Blooming Beautiful bath bombs were the first of the new limited-edition products to catch my attention. The daisy hat that each of them wear is so detailed. 

Looking at the bath bombs through Lush’s website it’s always so hard to believe that they are all handmade.

The Blooming Beautiful Marigold bath bomb is bright yellow and contains, bergamot oil, buchu oil, grapefruit oil and tagetes oil and shares its scent with another recently released limited edition product, the Cempasúchil bath bomb.

I’d however say that Blooming Beautiful Marigold isn’t nearly as strongly scented as Cempasúchil was.

Blooming Beautiful Marigolds scent is a very light and refreshing, warm, fruity fragrance. If you like the Lush products that aren’t in-your-face smelly, Blooming Beautiful Marigold would be a great choice for you.

I usually buy two of each bath bomb and out of the three Blooming Beautiful bath bombs, the Marigolds were the only ones that both arrived without a broken or crumbly daisy on its top.

As soon as the Blooming Beautiful Marigold bath bomb touches the water you are greeted with a hiss of yellow coloured foam.

The Blooming Beautiful Marigold bath bomb doesn’t offer anything too artsy bath-art-wise, but it does create lots of yellow and white bubbles as it dissolves away.

While the bath bomb dances around your bath, its scent seems to be watered down even more which was a little bit disappointing.

Amazingly, the Blooming Beautiful Marigold bath bomb took over 15 minutes to fully dissolve, I found myself topping up the bath with hot water as it fizzed away.

The waters left behind by the Blooming Beautiful Marigold bath bomb were a crazy-bright yellow, so bright that I thought it was glowing!

The waters of the Blooming Beautiful Marigold bath bomb were also incredibly soft, a good soak in it left my skin feeling smooth and my body super relaxed. It’s a very good bath bomb to use to get you ready for the changing of Winter into Spring.

The scent wasn’t at all detectable on my skin once I was all dried off, but my skin remained silky smooth to the touch.

Overall, I did enjoy using the Blooming Beautiful Marigold bath bomb, it allowed me to get some beautiful floral photos, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to buy another based on how weak its scent was.

Mother Nature Bath Bomb from Lush

The Mother Nature Bath Bomb is a brand-new, limited-edition product from Lush’s 2024 Mother’s Day line.

Weighing in at approximately 75g each, the Mother Nature bath bomb is the same size as the recently released Love Potion bath bomb.

Recently Lush have started to release smaller sized bath bombs, some might say that you’re no longer getting the same amount of product for your money but through my excessive use of Lush bath bombs I know that bigger doesn’t necessarily mean a bath bomb will be better.

I never judge a bath bomb on first look as the plainer or smaller ones can often give you the best of surprises during use…

The Mother Nature bath bomb has quite a simple design. It’s a bright green face with several flowers of different sizes decorating the faces hair; Also included is a real, single pressed Cosmos flower stuck on the side of the bath bombs head, it’s simple but beautiful. It reminds me of Te Fiti in the animated film, Moana.

As well as the pressed Cosmos flower, Mother Nature bath bomb also contains rosewood oil, bergamot oil, ylang ylang oil, fair trade olive oil.

It shares its scent with the NEW Groovy Kind of Love bath bomb and Pink Flamingo reusable bubble bar.

The Mother Nature bath bomb’s scent is sweet, fruity and oozes happy vibes. It is a citrus led scent BUT is a lot gentler than the average citrus based Lush product. It will most likely appeal to customers who like a more subtle, zesty-scented product.

As soon as the Mother Nature bath bomb touches the water you are greeted with an explosion of green bubbles.

The Mother Nature bath bomb doesn’t offer much bath-art-wise, but its mood-brightening scent makes it a must try!

The scent of the bath bomb really comes to life once placed into the water, even though it’s quite a gentle scent it still seems to fill your bathroom.

With the Mother Nature bath bomb being so dinky, it took just over three minutes to fully dissolve leaving only the flower and bright green waters behind.

The bright green waters smell heavenly, the Mother Nature bath bomb is quite literally sunshine in bath bomb form. Its scent lingers in your bathroom once you’ve pulled the plug and can still be smelt on your skin long after getting out of the bath, after using it I couldn’t help but keep sniffing myself!

The water left behind by the Mother Nature bath bomb not only smells delicious but also feels amazing on your skin. It’s a very no-fuss bath bomb but one of the best to have come out so far this year. Sometimes it’s not all about bath art but about its design and how it smells.

My skin still feels silky smooth several hours after getting out of the bath. I wouldn’t say my skin feels particularly hydrated after using Mother Nature but I’m not desperate to slather myself in a body lotion either.

Overall, I absolutely adore the Mother Nature bath bomb, it really does make you realise that the big and multicoloured bath bombs aren’t always the best. I am looking forward to seeing what other smaller bath bombs Lush come up with in the future.
