An Apple A Day Keeps The Doctor Away - Lush So White

For Christmas I received from Lush's limited edition holiday range 6 of their So White bath bombs as well as a bottle of the matching shower gel.

Appearance wise, they are spherical bombs the size of my hand, and are a crisp and clean white as the name would suggest, like untouched snow.

The scent is heavenly. A strong apple aroma (which is one of my favourite smells ever), is currently coming from my box of lush, leaving a very fresh and crisp smell all around my room. I can't get enough of it!

The surprise is yet to come... 

As So White meets the water, the seemingly pure whiteness of the bomb disappears almost instantaneously, revealing a gorgeous, hidden baby pink shade at the core. It's soooooo pretty!

So after I had popped one of the bombs in - however they are so large that you could cut it in half to get two uses - it immediately began to fizz. It didn't dash crazily through the water like the ballistics do as it is only a bomb, but it did create a hissing sound and create tiny bubbles that quickly disappeared. (They were created purely because of the bomb's movement; only the bubble bars create mounds of soapy lather).

 

To add bubbles to my bath, I added a few drops of the shower gel. The scent is the exact same, but it's a totally different colour. The gel is an almost transparent pearlescent sheen that shimmers so beautifully on the skin.

Together, the bomb and gel clearly had excellent moisturising properties, as when I left the bath my skin was feeling very smooth and soft. The smell also lingered for ages! When I went into the bathroom the next morning, I could still smell the delicate appley fragrance.

If only they sold these all year round!
