I am a massive fan of Lush, I love the fact that you can smell it from miles away and can spends ages picking each individual product up and smelling it. Unfortunately I hardly ever buy products as my nearest one is about half an hour away but I recently stocked up on a few bath bombs that should keep me going for a while!I decided to give Space Girl a whirl as I had never tried it before. It looks so pretty! On the website it states that it is named after a song by the band The Imagined Village. Featuring the ingredients of grapefruit oil, bergamot oil and almond oil I was certain that it would be a keeper.
As I dropped it in, it didn't make that much of an impact with the fizzy-ness. Usually Lush bath bombs literally exploded but this one kind of faded into the background. I am not sure if this was because I had already had a good few weeks before I used it. But from previous experiences this doesn't usually affect it.
The smell however hit me as soon as it plopped into the water. It reminded me of the sweet Palma violets. Remember them? They are my favourite sweets so naturally I loved the smell. However this faded quite quickly, it didn't linger like some bath bombs do.
My favourite bath bombs change the colour of the water dramatically; some even stain the bath much to my dad's disgust. However this one disappointed me. As you can see from the third picture after it had dissolved, it didn't really leave that much of an impression. The purple just wasn't bright enough for me. Not enough glitter appeared in the water either for me but again I am not sure if this was because it had been sitting in my bathroom for too long before it was used.
I think I am going to buy this one again and try to use it straight away to see if it makes more of an impact.
