Lush Efferverscent Bath Bomb — 'Without exaggeration, the best bath of my life'

Lush Effervescent Bath Bomb

This enormous bath fizzie should by rights be a tough sell in these troubled economic times: It's the size of a fist, is good for only a single bath and costs about what I pay for a bottle of wine.

As I sank into my bathtub and dropped in Lush's Geo Phyzz, a thrifty little voice in my head wondered whether I could reserve half for another bath. Thankfully, I found that voice easy to ignore, and I settled in for what was, without exaggeration, the best bath of my life. The bath bomb fizzed away, emitting a stream of bubbles and a luscious, woodsy scent. The water soon turned the color of a swamp, which could have been off-putting but just added to the feeling that I was bathing in a natural hot spring — minus the bugs and the exhibitionists.

The bubbles lasted several minutes, and even when they stopped, I was left relaxing in my warm, murky haven, my skin soft and smelling like cypress. Bliss. Maybe a $7 bath actually can be a bit of a bargain.
