First of all, this bath bomb is adorably cute...almost too cute to watch it fizz away. Lush has a range of Halloween themed bath bombs at the moment, but this was my primary choice because it just encapsulates the season so well. Secondly, I really liked the scent of it. It's fragranced with the natural scents of lime oil, sweet orange oil, and mandarin oil, so it's a very uplifting, invigorating smell. I think it's great if you're feeling tired and need a bit of pep in your step! It's also quite a large bath bomb, so if you wanted to optimize your value you could break it in half and use it for a couple of baths.

The biggest deterrent for me when it comes to shopping at Lush is the price. 850 yen for a bath bomb is a real splurge in my opinion, and definitely not something I can afford to use every time I take a bath! When you compare the price of a Lush bath bomb to the multi-packs of scented bath fizzing tablets at drug stores here, it's kind of painful to feel like you're watching your money fizz away in one bath. In saying that, I do think from time to time it's nice to treat yourself, and I don't splurge on much else in life!
