The Lush Ectoplasm Jelly Bomb is a super fun oooey, gooey delight for Halloween! Ectoplasm has tangerine, grapefruit and Litsea Cubeba Oil and it gives off a nice citrus scent. The water on this one turns into a nice purply jelly foam. The jelly is a bit slimy so be prepared!
According to Lush…
Jelly Bombs release a spectacular jelly made from sodium alginate, which comes from a mineral-rich seaweed.
The Lush Christmas Snow Fairy Jelly Bomb smells amazing you just have to get used to the jelly!
What’s to love?
First up the Jelly Bombs are really unique. I have tried the Lush Marmalade Jelly Bomb and Secret Arts so far and the science behind them is so interesting — “Jelly Bombs release a spectacular jelly made from sodium alginate, which comes from a mineral-rich seaweed.” and they are a bit gooey and slimy which takes some getting used to but they do moisturize really well and are tons of fun to play with.
Snow Fairy smells like candy and the pink and white swirls are gorgeous. I prefer this one over the black Secret Arts one.
I recently ordered from Lush UK do that I could get the Secret Arts (it was called Dark Arts) Jelly Bomb for my Lush Halloween haul video and I also picked up the Lush Marmalade Jelly Bomb.
What’s to love?
First up the Jelly Bombs pretty much look like regular bath bombs when they are dry. I even cut one open and it still looked like a bath bomb. However the magic happens when you get them wet.
They do fizz and pop like bath bomb but when you touch them they fell like jelly which is pretty cool. They go a long way, I just mine up in quarters and a fourth was plenty.

Marmalade has Brazilian orange and grapefruit oils and it smells amazing. The brilliant orange and yellow colors swirl in the bath and turn the water a nice light orange. They also smooth my skin very nicely!
I am hoping these come to North America soon.
As if Halloween 2017 anticipation wasn’t exciting enough Lush UK decided to release a new Bath Bomb called Secret Arts, it was called Dark Arts. It’s actually a new bath bomb called a jelly bomb and it looks amazing!
This one feels like it came right out of Hogwarts and my guess is that Severus Snape would be all over this bath bomb of darkness!
First up, you might be asking like I did…What’s a Jelly Bomb? Lush explains it very well here. The short version is “Jelly Bombs release a spectacular jelly made from sodium alginate, which comes from a mineral-rich seaweed” which is really cool!
So not only is Dark Arts perfect for us Harry Potter fans it’s also perfect for the upcoming Halloween season and I hope that they come to North America!
The Dark Art Jelly Bomb is black with pink tendrils and has Brazilian orange oil, Cinnamon Leaf Oil and Sweet almond essential oil and it appears to turn the bath water an inky sparkly black which is so cool!
I just got my hands on one from the UK and I’ll be demoing it soon!
