Out of the 29 bath bombs in the 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection, there are four special ones that can be categorised in their own little group. All of their names start with, ‘The One With’ and each of them are mini bombshell-bath-bombs. (see photo of all four of them together in the photo below)
A bombshell bath bomb is a bath bomb with a little extra something inside. Usually, Lush make their bombshells a lot bigger, which is why I wrongly assumed that the four ‘The One With’ bombshells, were all just ordinary bath bombs…
I only found out that they were bombshell bath bombs after I had used one.
Today I am reviewing the, The One With Lemon Oil In Bath Bomb. On first appearance all of the, The One With bath bombs look quite plain when you compare them to most of the other 29 bath bombs in the 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection.
The One With Lemon Oil In has a very uncomplicated design; It’s a light shade of yellow and is the size and shape of the average Lush bath bomb. Decoration wise, it has a single dried lemon slice on its top.
While I thought on first impression that the, The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb looked plain; Having used a lot of Lush products over the years I am now a little wiser than I was and always have in the back of my mind that the plainer products can quite often be the products that surprise you the most.
This is why I decided to get and give each of the, ‘The One With’ bath bombs a go.
I also have to remind myself that not everyone favours the big, bold, eye-catching, all-bells-and-whistles bath bombs. Sometimes you just want a quick and simple bath but with that little something extra.
When you’re not looking to have a super fancy bath, ‘The One With’ bath bombs are the perfect choice. There’s no over-the-top bath-time theatrics, you simply throw it into the water then lay back and relax.
Different bath bombs have different ingredients in, and each ingredient can have a different effect on you.
I find citrus based products to be quite uplifting so out of the four mini bombshell bath bombs, The One With Lemon Oil In and The One With Orange Slices should both be good choices if you’re looking for a pick-me-up.
The One With Lemon Oil In contains dried lemon slices and Sicilian lemon oil.
The scent of The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb is as its name and overall ingredient list suggests, lemony. It is described on Lush’s website as a refreshing sweet lemon.
It doesn’t share its scent with any other Lush product and in comparison, to the other ‘The One With’ bath bombs scents, it is quite a weak one. I was a little surprised at how light of a scent it had but thought its scent may get stronger during use.
The One With Lemon Oil In was the third of the, ‘The One With’ bath bombs that I tried. The One With Lavender was the first. I wrote in my The One With Lavender review how surprised I was when I first used it because of the amount of lavender that was hidden inside of it.
I again was just as surprised when the, The One With Orange Slices bath bomb practically gave birth to a whole orange once placed into the water. With the lemon equivalent being called The One With Lemon Oil In (no mention of slices) I wasn’t expecting anything other than the bath bomb being a little oiler than normal.
You’d be a fool to not always expect the unexpected when using Lush products yet, with The One With Lemon Oil In being the third of the ‘The One With’ bath bombs I tried, I was quietly confident that I knew what was coming. Spoiler alert… I didn’t.
As soon as the, The One With Lemon Oil In comes into contact with water there’s an instant explosion. I managed to get the photo above within the first three seconds of using the bath bomb, after that, like the, The One With Orange Slices bath bomb, the One With Lemon Oil In also gave birth to what felt like a whole lemon worth of lemon slices; So much for it being only lemon oil.
Lush had successfully tricked me again!
The One With Lemon Oil In had completely dissolved in less than a minute. Leaving several lemon slices floating around the water’s surface. The water turns an almost glowing bright yellow colour.
The only negative thing I can pinpoint with the, The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb is how weak its scent is. I thought it may have got a little stronger when in use but if anything, I couldn’t smell anything at all by the time it had fully dissolved.
I didn’t feel nearly as refreshed with this bath bomb as I did the, The One With Orange Slices but my skin did feel soft and appeared brighter.
Clean up wasn’t difficult at all, simply scoop the fruit slices out and pop them in the bin. Some people are funny about ‘bits’ in their bath but I really enjoy the novelty of fruit floating around me, I much prefer it to flowers and petals!
Overall, I enjoyed using The One With Lemon Oil In bath bomb, but I’d have liked its scent to be a little stronger.
