Bath Bombed

I just had a bath with one of those fizzy 'bath bombs'. Someone had given it to my mother, but she didn't want it. I've had these before and they usually smell quite nice, turn the water pink or lilac or something equally soothing, and might have a few dried rose petals in them.

This one turned the water a violent shade of yellow, so that it looked as though many, many horses had peed in it. And it didn't smell very nice (although not as bad as if many, many horses had peed in it). And it had wee bits of breakfast cereal, or possibly Monster Munch, embedded in it. These escaped during the dissolving process and then disintegrated into tiny, soggy fragments.

And now I'm all itchy. Lovely.

Boy, your mother really dodge a bullet on this one. They should start calling it "Suprise in a Bath Bomb." ;)

Hope your skin feels better soon. :)

I can't really blame her - she did say that she hated the things :-) She's not a big fan of Lush stuff in general, and the shops are a bit overwhelming right enough.

The itching has worn off though, thanks :-)

Oh Claire, I'm so sorry I'm laughing at you...but it is funny.

Glad to hear the iching has worn off.
