LUSH shooting for the stars bath bomb

Hi guys! I have been really bad at posting regularly at the moment and I feel quite bad about it! When I started blogging about a month and a half ago, I couldn't get enough of it and I almost felt like I was writing too many posts! I still love it, but I just can't find the time since starting back school, and I really don't want to rush a post just to make sure there is one up because it will probably be rubbish! I'm going to try and do 2 posts a week now, and to get some type of routine going!
 
Anyway!! Just a quick review/talk about the 'Shooting for the stars' bath bomb from Lush. I featured this in my Lush haul post recently.
 
 
I think the word to describe this bath bomb when you put it in the water is 'wow'! It really makes your bath tub look like a night's sky, but with bolder colours! I think that it looks so pretty and eye catching before even putting it into your bath, with bright yellow, bits of purple and many shades of blue on show! When I walked into my Lush shop it definitely got my attention!
 
 
Sorry for the poor quality photo here but as you can see, colour kind of exploded from this bath bomb within seconds of it being in the water! It is one of the prettiest bath bombs that I have watched fizzle in the bath! I quickly realised that this one was quite slow from Lush, as it takes a while to fully dissolve, but it definitely puts on a show whilst you are waiting! I actually only noticed once I got into the bath that there were tiny bits of silver glitter, that were obviously hidden inside of the bath bomb. I probably should have expected glitter from the title really, but it was quite a nice surprise actually, because they weren't the really big stars that stick to you or anything!
 
Once the water has finally settled, it turns a very dark blue colour, with faint hints of yellows, light blues and purples. These colours added with the tiny silver bits make your bath tub look truly magical!
 
 
As you might have noticed from previous posts, I am really bad at describing smells, and it doesn't really help how I like most smells when it comes to baths and other body products!! The smell was noticeable but not too overwhelming, and it was quite sweet. It has a very very faintly smell of honey in my opinion!! My skin felt so smooth and soft after this bath and it stayed like that for a few days!
 
The only negative I would have to mention with this bath bomb is that your bath will become covered in glitter after you empty the water! I came to clean the bath the next morning (because my mum is a neat freak and I would have had to clean it anyway!) and was shocked by the amount of glitter everywhere! It was easy to come off but be warned! Also, I think this is only a Christmas stock item, but it didn't really strike me as Christmassy at all if I'm honest!
 
I would definitely get this bath bomb again, and the glitter didn't bother me too much because it didn't stick to me and therefore I didn't spread glitter across the whole house!! For £3.50 it is definitely worth it!
Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed it!:)
 
Also, I was wondering what people enjoy reading the most from my blogs? I enjoy writing any type of blog post but if particular ones are not as interesting or vice versa then I'd love to know what you would like to see more of in the future:)
