The Lush Alternative♥

It would take a lot of beating to beat Lush, it's a fantastic brand and they have such a variety of products. It would also take a lot for me to dislike them, because after trying their products, I'm hooked now. As lovely a bath it can produce, I will be honest - it can be ever so slightly expensive, or maybe that's just me because I add too much into my basket. I like to see Lush as a luxury brand for when I need a relaxing bath, and since my nearest Lush isn't too local, an alternative is necessary.


The bomb cosmetics is a fairly popular and well-known brand. I've heard many people go as far as saying they do dupe products of Lush, which is extremely exciting! When I received their Little Box Of Love from my Aunt at Christmas time, I couldn't wait to dive on in and give them a shot!


Looking at them, they're seriously some of the cutest little bath bombs I've ever laid eyes on, and that's saying something. I'm a lover of pink, so these are winners for me. As soon as I ripped off the wrapping paper, I was greeted with the strong scent these beauties have. Don't worry - it's a good thing, they smell beautiful! I had them sat next to me as I wrote this post, and the smell was coming out of the box, it's seriously impressive.


I like the design of these - they're made out to look like little cupcakes which is honestly one of the cutest ideas ever because who doesn't want to have a bath which had a cupcake bath bomb in it?! Each bath bomb has it's own name, which are all really cute. The names include; Rosebud Cupcake, Chic & Cheerful Bath Mallow, Urban Rose Bath Mallow, Kiss Me Quick Bath Creamer, Love Birds Bath Mallow and Feel The Love Bath Mallow. If you haven't guessed yet, there's clearly a love theme running here!

I really like these bath bombs. I love the smell of them, the design and they're a great alternative to lush! I used one this morning and the smell just filled the air almost immediately once it fizzed away. It never created colour as such - it gave the water a cloudy appearance and had dried flowers inside. My skin hasn't felt this luxurious in a while. The water made my skin feel so smooth and my skin definitely absorbed the goodness of it. My only problem with them is that they're too cute and I don't want to use them up..

Have you tried the Bomb Cosmetics? Do you like them?

  2. I actually got a Santa bomb cosmetics which I've used and they are good alternative to lush the designs are cute but what I love about lush is that I know my skin will have benefits from their ingredients whereas my skin just felt the same when I used this but it did make my bath all red

  14. These are definitely the cutest bath bombs ever! I've only ever used bath bombs a small number of times but I think I might go ahead and purchase a few of these!
    One of my favourites once was a blueberry muffin style bath bomb (not sure of the brand!) my mum gave me that smelt amazing and turn the bath water a beautiful blue!
    But think I might have to spend a litttttle bit of money on ones from the bomb cosmetics, I've just had a quick look at their site after reading this and they have a gorgeous selection!

  16. I haven't tried a Lush alternative yet, but I really should, as here in Norway there's no Lush shop in my area at all. In fact they're very rare here. They have a shop in town where they also sell bathbombs so I should deff take a look into that but they're also quite expensive - as everything is expensive here in Norway, lol. 😒

    I loved this post and the pictures are beautiful! It's so good to write about other bath products than Lush every now and then! :p

  90. Looking at this, I just want to eat them! And yes, I am one of those "Lush haters." I think Lush is way overblown by bloggers, the smells are crazy strong, half of them have things I'm allergic to, and you're not wrong in saying it's expensive for the everyday user. This looks like a good alternative!

  96. I have seen this bath bombs everywhere but have always been a bit reluctant to try them. Every time I see them they just look a little dusty but yours look great. They look a lot more yummy than Lush ones but I am a true Lushie forever!! What blogger do you know that isn't in love with Lush!!!
