anyone can fall apart, let's fall together
The Unholy Trinity of Wine, Cheese, and Bubble Bath

Might as well start writing about it.

My bath journey started with a hotel tub in Samana. When I got home I bought a Blue Skies bubble bar from Lush.

Blue Skies Bubble Bar
  • Foams up alright, but is no match for Guelph hard water (~25 GPG, 400PPM in my area). Nice smell.
Since it wasn't cutting it I moved onto conventional bubble bath.

Dr Tealc's Teal's Pure Epsom Salt Lavender Foaming Bath
  • I picked this one because lavender is a relaxing smell and it came in a litre jug.
  • Foams well with about 60mL

Kind of wanted to sit in the tub a while longer after the bubbles were done though, so I branched out into bath bombs and melts.

Lush Yog Nog Bath Bomb
  • After half an hour in the bath my nose is usually not very sensitive to scents anymore... I can't comment on the smell but I found it nicely moisturizing and it looked like a scrambled egg as it melted because of the yellow bath oil in the white shell.
  • However, turned the bath water green. Was not into that.

Lush Cloak of Invisibility Bath Oil

  • Moisturizing, as promised, but for $6 I'd expect more pizzazz. Realized at this point I can replicate the effect of the bath oil with actual body oil. 

Lush Floating Flower Bath Bomb
  • Lovely colour and effect. Moisturizing. Flower looked kind of sad though.

Lush Golden Pear Bath Bomb
  • Beautiful colour. Looked and smelled like grapefruit, or maybe that was the Apothic rosé, which tastes and looks like grapefruit juice? My favourite one so far. 
  • This was the point where I realized that in addition to drinking wine I could also eat cheese in the tub. 

To come: Intergalactic, Madame President, Twilight, and Melusine.
