Time of the Season Bath Bomb from Lush

Today I am reviewing the brand-new Time of the Season Bath Bomb from Lush’s 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection.

To look at, the Time of the Season bath bomb reminds me of the Frozen bath bomb because Like Frozen, the Time of the Season bath bomb is all one colour and looks like it is wearing a darker coloured belt.

Where the Frozen bath bomb is light blue, Time of the Season is yellow and where the Frozen bath bomb is dark blue, Time of the Season is bright pink.

The Time of the Season bath bomb contains dark Sumatran patchouli oil, grapefruit oil, organic neroli oil and orange flower absolute.

It’s a brand-new scent-family from Lush and seems to have divided Lush fans. Again, I want to reference the Frozen bath bomb as elements of Time of the Seasons scent remind me of it a lot, it has the same zesty, sharp bitterness because of the grapefruit and neroli.

I think these are the ingredients that make and break it for some. I however really like the bitterness of the grapefruit, the other ingredient that really comes through scent wise is the patchouli oil. On paper it sounds like such a strange mix, but I think they all work really well together.

It’s an incredibly unique scent, a very bold choice from Lush, I like it when Lush are brave with their fragrances.

Lush describe the Time of the Season bath bomb as ‘a bath bomb that’ll take you to the bathing promised lands’ and claim that it is ‘the time of the season for loving yourself’ and that the bath bomb will ‘gently restore your composure, while instilling an overall feeling of peace.’

Each of the Time of the Season bath bombs are approximately 180g each fitting easily in my hand.As soon as the Time of the Season bath bomb meets your bath water there is an explosion of thick yellow and pink foam (as seen in the photo directly below.)

The hot pink and yellow starts to spread out before orange begins to spill out of the Time of the Season bath bomb too.

It doesn’t take long for the bath bomb to start spinning in the water and wow does it spit out an insane amount of absolutely stunning bath art.

As always, the photos in this review do the bath bomb no justice at all, the colours that spill out of the Time of the Season bath bomb are so bright, bold and beautiful, I never wanted it to end.

The Time of the Season bath bomb takes just under 10 minutes to fully dissolve, the water left behind is a bright shade of orange and it feels silky soft on your skin.

Many people have compared the Time of the Season bath bomb to the Passion bath bomb (from the same 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection) because it has such similar colouring, this is true, maybe Lush could have picked Time of the Season to have different colours to make it more unique, but honestly? Both it and Passion are such good bath bombs that smell completely different; therefore, I really don’t think it matters.

Using the Time of the Season bath bomb left my skin lightly fragranced and soft to the touch, I could still smell it on my skin several hours after using the bath bomb too. I also didn’t need to moisturise after getting out of the bath which is always a plus… I do love a time saver!

Overall, I am completely in love with the Time of the Season bath bomb. The bath art was phenomenal. If I knew the bath bomb was this good, I’d have used it weeks ago.

I always say the bath art photos in my bath bomb reviews do the bath bombs no justice at all, but the photos included on the Lush website for this bath bomb don’t show its true potential either. Just look at the photo above compared to those on the Lush website. I can’t believe how different they are!?!!

I admit, the Time of the Season scent is quite an acquired taste, if you’re not sure on its scent I do still recommend giving it a go, sometimes bath bombs can surprise you. Time of the Season is a true work of art, what an incredible bath bomb from start to finish!

Passion Bath Bomb from Lush

Today I am reviewing the brand-new Passion Bath Bomb from Lush’s 2024 World Bath Bomb Day collection.

Much like the Thermal Waves bath bomb from the same collection, Passion has such striking colours that it demands your immediate attention.

The Passion bath bomb is a swirling mix of hot pink, red and yellow. As soon as I had the bath bomb in my possession, I couldn’t wait to give it a go.

The Passion bath bomb contains buchu, litsea cubeba and sweet wild orange oils.

It shares its scent with several past products including, the Passion shower gel, Cyclops bubble bar, SpongeBob bath bomb and also the Tropical Co-Mingle body scrub.

Lush describe the Passion bath bomb as ‘mouth-wateringly juicy and fruity’. It’s a rich passion fruit like fragrance and the perfect pick-me-up. It reminds me of the Summer and long days on the beach.

Each of the Passion bath bombs are approximately 180g each fitting easily in my hand.

As soon as the Passion bath bomb comes into contact with your bath water there is an explosion of thick tropical coloured foam.

The hot pink, red and yellows of the bath bomb start to bleed into each other making it look like the Passion bath bomb also has lighter pink and orange colours in it too.

It doesn’t take long for the bath bomb to start spinning and creating the most gorgeous swirling bath art.

As always, the photos in this review do the bath bomb no justice at all, the colours that spill out of the Passion bath bomb are so bright and bold. My camera couldn’t quite capture its true beauty.

The Passion bath bomb takes about 8 minutes to fully dissolve, the water left behind is a bright shade of orange and it’s super silky feeling.

Sat in its tropical waters, I feel like I am in a fish-bowl-cocktail and not a bathtub at all. I don’t think a bath bomb has ever made me want to be on a sunny holiday more!

The Passion bath bombs scent intensifies somewhat once it is in the bathtub, there’s just something about its scent and all of the colours that spill out of it that leaves me feeling happy.

Using the Passion bath bomb left my skin lightly fragranced and soft to the touch. I couldn’t help but notice how hydrated my skin felt and how much brighter it looked after using it too.

Overall, I am completely in love with the Passion bath bomb. I have thoroughly enjoyed every bath bomb from the World Bath Bomb day release that I have tried so far but the Passion bath bomb, has really made a lasting impression on me.

It’s beautiful scent and array of Summery colours has made this bath bomb one of my all-time favourites!

Somewhere Bath Bomb from Lush

In celebration of World Bath Bomb Day 2024, Lush Cosmetics have released 29 bath bombs that consist of some much-loved golden oldies, some as they were and some now super-sized, as well as a shedload of brand-new bath bombs too!

The first one I will be reviewing is the brand-new Somewhere Bath Bomb. It is designed in the shape of (what first appears to be) a pink coloured rainbow with 2 white clouds on either of its ends.

This bath bombs name is a play on the Somewhere Over The Rainbow song and to look at, it’s the closest we’ve ever got to a remake of the Somewhere Over The Rainbow bath bomb; Although, the rainbow theme is the only thing these two bath bombs seem to have in common.

As I said earlier, the Somewhere bath bomb appears to be just a pink rainbow. I thought this was a little strange at first but if you look at the sides of the Somewhere bath bomb you can see clues of a much more colourful inside.


The Somewhere bath bomb contains coconut milk powder, bergamot oil, Sicilian lemon oil, orange flower absolute, Sicilian red Mandarin oil and a sprinkling of popping candy.

It shares its scent with the much loved The Olive Branch shower gel. Its scent is a delicate yet stunning citrus, it is perfect for anyone who is wary of the stronger Lush scents that Lush are often associated with. Other products that share its scent include: The Christmas Penguin bubble bar and The Olive Branch bath bomb.

Each of the Somewhere bath bombs are approximately 95g each fitting easily in my hand.

As soon as the Somewhere bath bomb comes into contact with your bath water it begins to foam up. At first white foam spills out of it but after about 30 seconds, several pastel shades of colour begin to trickle out of it too.

There’s obviously a lot of pink because that’s the main colour of the bath bomb but a mix of pale purple, green, orange, and yellow slowly fizz out of it too. As it charges around your bath it leaves pastel coloured bath art behind.

The photos in this review do the bath bomb no justice at all.

As the water begins to consume the Somewhere bath bomb, the first part of it to go completely under the water’s surface is the inside of the rainbow arch. A minute or so later, the pink part of the bath bomb goes under as well, leaving just the clouds. Shortly after that, it all goes under gently bubbling up.

The Somewhere bath bombs scent hangs around your bathroom for an hour or two after pulling the plug. It lasts on your skin for a good six or so hours too.

It takes about four minutes for the Somewhere bath bomb to fully dissolve, thanks to the coconut milk powder in it, laying back in its waters feels amazing on your skin. I also forgot to mention the popping candy! That crackles away long after the bath bomb has dissolved, adding a little something extra to your bathing experience.

Overall, I’m so in love with the Somewhere bath bomb, it was the first bath bomb from the big, World Bath Bomb Day launch to catch my eye and it did not disappoint.

My skin adored soaking up all of its ingredients and its light citrus scent left me craving more. I loved how its colours weren’t really bright, sometimes less is more and its lighter colours complimented its subtle scent perfectly.

The Somewhere bath bomb has left me so excited to try all of the other new bath bombs, I really hope that it sells well as it’s made a lasting impression on me!
