I’m a sucker for colorful bath bombs, so it wasn’t a surprise that I bought this bath bomb immediately when I saw it. Upon arriving I was in love—this bath bomb is huge and so colorful. It looks like a ticket… a ticket for a long soak. I normally don’t do long soaks, I can never sit still and I usually exit the bath after half an hour. But maybe, this time I will truly have one long soak!

Lush One Long Soak Bath Bomb costs £6.50 and is currently only available in the UK webshop as it’s part of the Mother’s Day range. That means it will be launched for other parts of the world soon!
It’s a huge bath bomb, I was surprised by the size! It’s very colorful and I can’t wait to see how it’s going to end up in the tub.
This bath bomb shares its scent with Mermaid Tail bubble bar, or for those who go way back in the history of Lush, it has Snow Globe / Baked Alaska’s scent. The first thing I noticed about the scent is a zesty lemon note. It has a fresh and uplifting scent, the grapefruit and lemon combined are very prominent. I can’t really detect the ylang ylang in it, it’s all zesty to me. It’s not my favorite scent, but it’s not a bad one either! It’s just a fairly simple scent that will lift your spirits.
What do I think?
God, this bath bomb took 3 business days to dissolve. From the moment I dropped it into the water, till it was fully dissolved, I was able to take a nap, do the groceries, take on a shift at work and have another nap. It’s not just One Long Soak, but also One Long Wait. Jokes aside, it took about 15 minutes for me to enter the bath. (Of course you can just go ahead and sit in the tub already, but since I’m filming the whole experience, I don’t think I should do that) I think I sat in the tub for more than half an hour, and I did notice my skin feeling slightly softer afterwards!
The bath art is very rewarding. It spews out streams of colorful foam across the surface, I can see every color in the rainbow passing by. At the end, the bath bomb spews out all kinds of colors, it’s like an unicorn shat in the tub. I love it. The water was a pretty shade of dark blue, and the zesty scent was prominent throughout bathing—even long after I finished my bath, I could still smell it when I entered the bathroom. In terms of bath art, it’s a 10/10. The only thing is that I’m not too keen on the scent, otherwise I would’ve bought a few back-ups. But while it’s still on sale in the UK webshop, I would definitely recommend trying this bath bomb!
