I used to work for Lush – here’s what your bath bomb choice says about you

THERE'S nothing better at the end of a long, hard day working than a perfectly run bath - especially with a fancy Lush bath bomb thrown in.

But there are so many to choose from and the displays packed full of brightly coloured, often glittery bombs can be overwhelming, so how do you pick which one is perfect for you?

Whether you choose your ideal bath product based on colour, smell, or even just the jazzy name - the bomb you choose can actually reveal a lot about you.

Here, former Lush worker Amelia Ng shares her insight into what your choice says about you...

Dragon's egg

Once popped in the bath, the Dragon's Egg has a slow fizz to start but gets more exciting as it fizzes on.

This one is a popular one with Harry Potter and Game of Thrones fans in particular.

It's perfect for that person who’s looking for that little bit of magic, and those who choose it are usually sci-fi lovers. 

Sex bomb

This one is really popular for bridal parties and hen dos and is often bought by bridesmaids.

They always buy this as it seems very popular to put in the gift bags.

If you're buying this one, you're someone who’s wanting a bit of the real thing, and gets giddy at the word sex. 

Sex Bomb was inspired by the Tom Jones mega hit, and contains aphrodisiac ingredients jasmine, clary sage and ylang ylang.

The bomb itself is pink and purple with a wafer rose, so very feminine and sexy!

Twilight

If you buy the Twilight bath bomb you're an extremely hard worker looking for a good night's kip.

This one is popular with people who have problems trying to sleep,and over-worriers looking to catch a night of zzz’s.

Packed with lavender and quite sweet, it's like a sleeping potion!

Intergalactic

This one is for the wannabe astronaut.

It's mainly parents who buy the Intergalactic bomb because it's really popular with kids (or those of us who still have a playful side!).

This is because it’s one of the most fun ones available, with popping candy and a variety of colour with luminous pink and yellow inside. 

It’s an out of world experience, with minty vibes added in too from peppermint oil.

Big blue

For all those beach fans and the reminiscent traveller who had Covid put a stop to their vacations, the Big Blue is the one.

It’ll take you right back to floating in the sea.

Packed with seaweed and sea salt you couldn’t get more of a beach vibe in your tub at home!

Zesty and uplifting, its scent is like the fresh sea breeze.

Think pink

This one is popular with all the 'princess' girls, teens and mums.

This is the 'GOAT' (greatest of all time) of the bath bombs.

Those with a sweet tooth will enjoy the candy store sweet smell too.

Just pink and pretty - you can’t go wrong!
