Temple of Truth Bubble Bar from Lush

At the time of writing this review, the Temple of Truth Bubble Bar was last available in June 2024’s Lush Kitchen subscription box. Before that, I believe it was first released in 2006 and has made a number of appearances on and off since.

The Temple of Truth is a darker blue, cone shaped bubble bar. Colour wise, it’s a very close match to the shade of blue used in the Intergalactic bubble bar and has a similar shape to the Cyclops bubble bar; The Temple of Truth however has a much more relaxed cone shape, its point isn’t as pointy and precise.

With it being all one colour, it isn’t the most exciting looks wise and is on the smaller size too BUT I never like to judge a Lush product before using it.


Each Temple of Truth bubble bar contains some of the following ingredients: guaiac wood oil, ho wood oil and sandalwood oil.

Although the Temple of Truth bubble bar is one of Lush’s older products, as far as I am aware its scent has only ever been used in this bubble bar.

Its scent is gentle but has plenty of layers which I will attempt to put into words…

It’s earthy, woody, floral and a little musky. Being honest, it’s not a scent I would usually go for but it came in the Lush Kitchen subscription box, so I decided to give it a try.

To use the Temple of Truth bubble bar, I broke it up then put all of the pieces of it into a sieve. I then let the running water trickle over it.

I find this sieve method, the most effective way to use Lush’s single use bubble bars. It is also the best way to ensure none of the bubble bar gets accidentally wasted.

Through trial and error, I have found that using bubble bars like this makes the most bubbles too.

Normally with bubble bars I like to spread them out over several baths but with the Temple of Truth bubble bar being so small I decided to use the whole thing in one bath, something I do not regret.

The blanket of fluffy white bubbles starts to grow as soon as you place the broken-up pieces of the Temple of Truth Bubble Bar under the running tap. Underneath the fast-building blanket of fluffy, white bubbles the water turns a deep shade of blue.

Once in the bath, I couldn’t help but notice how soft the water was. There were so many bubbles that it took me a lot of swishing them away to actually get visuals of the water.

Once out of the bath, its scent although very subtle, lasted on my skin for a good-few-hours. I felt relaxed and ready for bed.

Overall, I did like the Temple of Truth bubble bar, the colour of blue it turns the water is such an inviting blue, but it isn’t a bubble bar I’m desperate to use again, it wasn’t at all unpleasant I just prefer fruitier Lush fragrances.
