Lush Review : Experimenter Bath Bomb

This one may have been a bad bomb.

The Experimenter bath bomb is one of the most talked about bath bomb on my social media, followed by the Intergalactic bath bomb. After seeing all the hype about it I just HAD to try it, but ,I must say, I was semi disappointed.

The exterior of this design will catch anyone's eye with its multicoloured facet and it's hexagon shape. These bright colours are - I guess- meant to indicate the bright coloured streak of water that will cover the surface of your bathtub once The Experimenter starts to dissolve. However, when it came to using my own Experimenter bath bomb, I found that the colours were not as vibrant as I had seen in other reviews. Instead, I got a few bright (ish) colours that immediately swirled together to create a murky grey colour. Was it just my bath bomb that did this or is it the intended outcome? I do have a hunch that mine dissolved rather quickly; therefore, ruining the slow effect of the colours streaming across the surface.

 The initial scent of the Experimenter bath bomb is a strong one, but after the initial shock to your sense of smell, you start to distinguish between the strong scent and the sweet scent of it. Vetivert Oil, which is the main ingredient, created the strong scent that is described by Lush as earthy and smoky. In addition to the Vetivert oil, we find a combination of tonka and vanilla which create the sweet aspect of this bath bombs' scent. 


Overall, I do like this bath bomb, despite the fact that I was expecting more from it. I will buy it again so I can test it again. I mean, most of the reviews that I have seen matched. So why was my bath bomb any different?
One thing that I love about this bath bomb is that it holds the two important qualities that I look for in bath bombs - the scent lingers on your skin, and it makes your skin feel soft.

I am eager to hear your thoughts about the Experimenter bath bomb. Did you have a similar experience to mine, or was your bath bomb the best?


Until next time, lovelies.

Image
Hey ! Source : Pinterest If you know me or follow me on social media, then you would know that I LOVE One Direction, and have been loving them since 2012.  I've watched probably like 75% of their interviews ,and in one of their earlier interviews, Louis Tomlinson said that the first meal he even cooked was chicken stuffed with cheese wrapped in parma ham. I have been meaning to do it but I was too lazy to do it. But today, I shall be making it. And here's how.... You will need : Chicken Breast (not the breaded kind) Parma Ham slices Mozzarella You might want to add : Salt and Pepper (optional) Herbs ( of your choice) Cherry Tomatoes (to put with the mozzarella) Mash potato ( optional for the side) Now that you have all of your ingredients, this is how to do it : Preheat oven  200ºC/400ºF/gas 6 You need to butterfly the chicken by cutting into it half way lengthwise.

Unboxing : Owl Crate October 2018

Image
And we're back with another Owl Crate Unboxing. Are you surprised? I'm sure you aren't. October is here, and so that means cold weather and book cuddles. It also means lots of tea will be consumed by book lovers all around the globe (or coffee. Whatever floats your boat). Luckily for us, Owl Crate has got our backs and created the perfect box for Autumn/Fall for us. The October 2018 Owl Crate was themed Lost in the Bookstore. This box was slightly different from other boxes because most of the items weren't inspired by a book fandom.  Once again, before I start to talk about the exclusive items in this box I want to talk about the illustration on the spoiler card and on the pin. The creative is just so simply drawn but it is so beautiful. What I love the most in this photo is the magic teapot. Every bookworm deserves a magic teapot to pour our tea for us when we are reading.   Let's start with the items in the box.  First up we have a lovely

Review : Inkbox Tattoo

Image
Hey ! Before we begin I want to take you back to 2012. January 6 th 2012 was the day I discovered One Direction. The reason I am telling you this is because the boys of One Direction have a small number of tattoos. One of them happens to be on Louis Tomlinson's skin, which I had sworn to get inked into my skin. But as I grew older (and a tad wiser) I realized that I shouldn't get it as it looks rather childish. Now, as I was curiously browsing through Inkbox's selection of temporary tattoos I spotted a tattoo similar to that of Louis's so ,obviously, I got it. I, also, got a Raven tattoo from their The Mummy Collection for my friend. SO....here is my review of the Inkbox Temporary Tattoo "Papel". In other words, a paper airplane. This little beauty cost me $21 USD without postage and delivery, and since it's outside the EU I had to pay about 9euro to the deliveryman for VAT. The box it comes in is black with this really cool design
