Have you ever seen a cute, sleepy robot like this? Ickle Bot is one of the 28 new bath bombs that Lush recently launched, and as a lavender fan, I had to buy it. Work has been stressful lately and since I can’t snort a few lines of lavender buds, I’ll have to try other ways to relax. Let’s see if Ickle Bot can get the job done!

Lush Ickle Bot Bath Bath Bomb costs £5.00 / $8.00 / €6,50 and is part of the 28 new bath bombs launch for World Bath Bomb Day. This bath bomb is a bit smaller than your average bath bomb—it’s 95 grams. Ickle Bot has always been a smaller bath bomb, making it very suitable for kids. (Ickle Bot can be used for kids ages 6 months and up!) It contains a small shampoo bar inside, which I think is such a cool surprise! Ickle Bot contains lavender oil, sandalwood oil and blue chamomile oil. The scent is perfect—very calming. It’s not 100% lavendar, but it has a note of sandalwood in the background and a touch of chamomile, making you feeling relaxed upon the first sniff.

Angel Hair Shampoo Bar (which can also be bought fullsize) contains aquafaba and rose water. It’s a very gentle shampoo bar, designed to calm your scalp and gently cleanse your hair.

Ickle Bot floats through the water, creating a purple aura of frothy swirls. I was positively surprised to see the water change color pretty quick, despite this being a smaller bath bomb. There’s quite some color coming off this bath bomb, and it even managed to color the water in my (huge) tub a beautiful shade of light blue. Eventually, Ickle Bot breaks in half and the shampoo bar is being released.
Bath art wise, this bath bomb isn’t a winner, so I was hoping the scent would work wonders. But unfortunately, I wasn’t able to pick up any scent in the bath room from this bath bomb. No hints of lavender or chamomile oil, nothing. It was still a relaxing soak, but I was hoping for a more powerful scent. I have no regrets buying this bath bomb, but I wouldn’t buy a second one.
