Frozen Bath Bomb - Lush Oxford Street

As soon as anyone, anywhere says the words; snowman, let it go, ice, or princess only one thing comes to mind – Disney’s Frozen, of course. It’s hard enough to go through day to day life without getting a Frozen song stuck in your head, but now Lush have made it just that little bit harder by naming a new Lush Oxford Street Exclusive bath bomb Frozen. 

Do you want to have a bath bomb?
Do you want to come and play?

Inventor Jack Constantine has many small children so his life was no doubt invaded by singing snowmen and reindeer when Frozen graced screens across the world, so of course he pulled inspiration from where he could, and created a bath bomb. 

 

Belonging to the same scent family that we all know and love, featuring Happy Happy Joy Joy Conditioning Hair Perfume and Sea Spray, Tunisian Neroli and Grapefruit give this pale, yet iridescent blue orb a crisp lightness that fits its name perfectly. Of course, it wouldn’t be Disney without some glitter and it’s quite fair to say that this bath bomb is lustre heavy. Normally, lustre from the bath doesn’t stay on my skin but the sparkles from Frozen certainly lingered – not always a bad thing. 

One of the wonderful things about this bomb is that it’s a slow fizzer, lasting probably ten minutes of solid fizzing. Although some of the faster fizzers are beautiful, I do prefer a slightly longer lasting bath bomb. It’s hypnotic to watch them dissolve and see all the colours creep out. 

Initially, I was unsure about how the Happy Happy Joy Joy scent would come across in a bath bomb but it was beautiful; it’s crisp and fresh whilst being uplifting and clean at the same time. It’s happy! It’s a very happy feeling bath bomb.  I did half expect, knowing Lush, for there to be a paper insert similar to the Fizzbanger, Blackberry Bath Bomb or May Day – “Let It Go!” 

 I sat in the bath and watched the blue spin out, Do You Want To Build A Snowman stuck in my head for the duration. Frozen, the movie? It’s good, but predictable. Frozen, the bath bomb? Yes all around. Neroli has been said to be a natural mood enhancer and the grapefruit oils compliment it with uplifting happy notes, what about that doesn’t sound good?
