Twilight bath bomb

5 out of 5

Twilight is the period of time before sunrise (dawn) and after sunset (dusk) during which the Earth’s atmosphere is partially illuminated by the sun, being neither totally dark nor completely lit.

When it’s twilight the sky usually looks like this.

It was named after a very popular book/movie that was out at the time called ‘Twilight’.

Such a pretty bath bomb with the stars and moons on it. 🌙🌟✨

Lush introduced this bath bomb around 2008 or 2009. That’s when i had my first Twilight bomb. The name comes from the time there was a very popular new movie called ‘Twilight’.

When Lush first made their Twilight bath bomb it was very popular with Lushies, and its maintained the same popularity ever since.

Not only does it look like the night sky (twilight) with stars and moons on the outside of the bomb, it also makes two different colors in the tub as it dissolves; pink and blue, but it also has a beautiful silver shimmer in the water. The blue and pink eventually mix in the water to become a lavender color.

As the bath bomb melts and fizzes it creates blue and pink colorful swirls.

Then there is the scent. Its a genius mix of bright herbal fragrance of lavender which promotes relaxation and sleep but there is also Tonka bean which smells similar to vanilla bean but tonka is more of a caramely scent. Then lastly there is the lovely floral notefrom the ylang ylang flower. The twilight fragrance is only subtley sweet and comforting.

Its such a gorgeous scent that Lush has used in many other products that i’ll list below which they have made. I also show these products in my scent family photos below.

It’s got silvery glitter mixed in the blue and pink foam.

The two colors mix to become purple.

The purple water with silver glitter is like the sky at twilight.

Here are some of my pictures of lush products throughout the years with the same twilight scent which is made with Lavender, Tonka bean, and Ylang Ylang. (Lush later changed the name to ‘Sleepy’)

there are more pics i’ve taken with more products than the ones shown here. When i find those other pics i’ll post here.

Lush has recently (in 2020) changed the name from Twilight to ‘Sleepy’. The reason they changed it may have something to do with the movie’s copyrights. So now there’s a Sleepy bath bomb aside from this Twilight bath bomb. The sleepy bath bomb looks completely different with the same scent of course.

But the President/CEO of Lush said that sleepy is the same scent as twilight, only the name has changed.

Lush Times: Everyone seems to be in love with twilight at the moment. Whether it’s the film series or that enchanting period betwixt day and night, we can’t work it out. If you’re stressed out and feeling like a member of the un-dead, this relaxing ballistic will stake all of your troubles and scatter them to the winds with scents of lavender and Ovaltine.
