The New Lush Jelly Bombs Turn Bath Water into a Jelly-Like Texture
Mary Van Puymbroeck — August 4, 2017 — Marketing
The new 'Lush Jelly Bombs' are a cosmetic innovation unique to the all-natural, UK-based beauty brand.
The Lush Jelly Bombs give bath water a gelatinous feel while calming and soothing the skin. Made from sodium alginate, the bombs react once they touch the water and turn the water into a jelly-like texture. While the jelly only sits on top of the water and not throughout the bath, the texture feels great on the skin and delivers a hit of moisture.
According to online reviews, these can be difficult to clean up. That said, the relaxation benefits of soaking in a tub full of jelly are fantastic. Available in four refreshing varieties, these gelatinous bath bombs are currently only available in the UK, but should reach North America by Fall/Winter 2017.
