A devoted Lush enthusiast recently shared her experience with the brand’s new Minecraft-themed bath bomb, only to find herself in a rather unexpected predicament. After purchasing the £3.75 TNT Block bath bomb, she was eager to indulge in a soothing bath, but the outcome was far from what she anticipated.
Before even placing the bath bomb in the water, she noticed it had already stained her hands. Upon dropping it into the tub, the vibrant red color burst forth, splattering not only the water but also her bathroom walls. “I obviously thought the only logical way to use this bath bomb was to drop it in and watch it explode all over my bathroom,” she humorously recounted in a TikTok video. “Honestly, I don’t know what I was expecting from a bright red bath bomb, but here we are.”
Bath Time Chaos
She candidly admitted that the state of her bathroom—tiles, walls, and floor—left her slightly distracted from the intended relaxation. “I think I could say as a whole this isn’t the most aesthetically pleasing bath bomb,” she reflected, adding, “But I have no one else to blame but myself!”
According to Lush, the bath bomb is infused with a calming blend of jasmine, ylang ylang, and clary sage, complemented by the delightful sounds of crackling popping candy. Despite the chaos, she praised its pleasant aroma, which helped alleviate her stress about the bathroom’s condition. After her bath, she managed to remove the red stains from her hands but faced the daunting task of giving her bathroom a thorough cleaning.
In her video, she humorously remarked, “Safe to say this did what it was supposed to do!” The comments section quickly filled with viewers likening her bath experience to scenes from a horror film, with one user quipping, “It’s giving Dexter’s wife!” Another chimed in with, “Saw bathroom core,” while a third simply stated, “This is quite scary.” To these comparisons, she responded, “Like something out of a horror movie!”
Some viewers expressed concern over the cleaning aftermath, with one commenting on the staining caused just by handling the bath bomb. “It was like paint holding it, wasn’t it?” she replied, noting that while the tiles cleaned up well, the walls were another story.
Bath Bomb Recommendations
In response to inquiries about less messy alternatives, she recommended other Lush products that provide a more serene experience without turning your bathroom into a crime scene. Her suggestions included:
- Twilight Bath Bomb: Known for its soothing lavender scent and calming purple hues.
- Intergalactic Bath Bomb: A cosmic blend of peppermint and neon colors that dissolve cleanly.
- Butterball Bath Bomb: Infused with cocoa butter for a moisturizing and mess-free soak.
While the Minecraft TNT Block bath bomb might not be for everyone, it certainly provides an unforgettable experience. For those who relish a bit of chaos with their relaxation or are simply die-hard Minecraft fans, this explosive addition to Lush’s lineup might just be worth the cleanup effort.
