Bath Bombs Away
By: Lauren Weist
If you pay even slight attention to social media lately, you will probably hear something about a “bath bomb.” These are products made by Lush, which “explode” when placed in a bath, releasing lotions and other beauty products, as well as bright colors and fun things like glitter. With names like “Rose Queen,” “Phoenix Rising,” “Dragon Egg,” “Big Blue,” “Space Girl,” and “Avobath,” there is something for everyone’s taste. These “bombs” are a very unique and cool product, almost as unique and cool as the store that it comes from.
Walking into a Lush store is a very unique experience. For starters, it is an explosion of color and scent. The store has a very homely, handmade feel to it, down to every sign appearing handwritten. Plus, it smells better than all of the best, freshest scents combined; it’s amazing. But the atmosphere is not the best part of the store: that spot belongs to the company’s high standards. You could not find one thing morally wrong with Lush: they fight animal testing, use only vegetarian ingredients with a few safe synthetics, buy from small scale producers, and package their products using only recycled or recyclable products. Although all these stipulations cause the prices to be slightly higher, it really is worth it to support so many good causes. This company is one of the most guilt-free corporations to have emerged in a big-scale way, all due to this “bath bomb” craze.
