Blackberry Bomb

4.5 out of 5 rating See my 1 minute tub demo video below.

This is a remake of a discontinued but very long running bath bomb.

It was actually made and sold before Lush was called Lush, back when they were a company called ‘Cosmetics To Go’. Back then it was wrapped in black and hsd a fuse hanging out, making it look just like a tiny TNT bomb. I show a photo i took of the Cosmetics To Go catalog with a picture of blackberry bomb and i also have two later designs of it on top of the catalog page

December 2018 Lush uk (who own Lush Japan) opened a new Lush concept store in the Harajuku area of Japan. They redesigned some bath bombs in addition to adding 100 new bath bombs.

So they redesigned Blackberry Bomb to look more like a blackberry shape.

In this store Lush are making 35+ new bath bombs exclusive to this store. However, Lush Uk has offered 11 of them to anyone who can regularly order from their online retail site at lush.co.uk including us here in the USA. Blackberry Bomb is one of these 11 exclusive, limited time bath bombs.

I stock up on this bomb. It would be perfect if it was a slower fizzing bomb with glitter and a bit more multi-colored bath art. Nitpickiness on my part. That’s the only reason this isn’t a 5.

blackberries from my garden.

Blackberry bomb has a fruity scent. It smells berryish; hence the name Blackberry.

It doesnt have blackberry in it. It does have bergamot and frankincense in it. In addition to smelling fruity It also smells perfume-y. That’s from the frankincense. i like frankincense because it reminds me of christmas incense.

Gotta love that purple water.

Here is a photo ive taken with allthe Lush products made throughout the years with the same scent.

Lush made the Abracadabra bubble stick in this scent

2006 Lush Times description: The Blackberry Bath Bomb has a deliciously fruity scent, seasoned with a smattering of frankincense, traditionally used to relieve nervous tension, calm stress and to help you cut ties with the past. Bergamot essential oil is said to inspire confidence and relieve depression. Why not use one to blast all the negativity, whish is topping you from getting out there and getting on with it? Use our happy blackberry bombs in the morning to blow away sad thoughts and launch you into a bright new day full of unlimited potential. It’s the season to pick one.

I won a trip to Lush Headquarters in Poole, England last year. It was from Mark Constantine, Owner and creator of Lush Cosmetics to thank me for some help i gave the writer of the Lush book (Danger: Cosmetics To Go) some help i gave them for some ctg products. I had a lot of ctg products in my Lush stash.

It was a magical trip, a dream come true.  And I recorded a lot of video for you all.

I’m building this page, organizing all my cosmetics to go product photos that i’ve taken throughout the years.  I will also have scans of the Cosmetics To Go catalogs here. 🙂 I’m building a list of Cosmetics To Go products from their Catalogs, with product photos, background  and ingredients info.

I still have an array of items from Lush founders’ previous company “Cosmetics To Go” (CTG), inwhich i’ve made a video of.  This is the video that won the Lush contest and which led to a Lushie dream come true.  I’ve collected them throughout the years.

Many years ago the owners of Lush were kind of enough to send me all of his original press Cosmetic To Go catalogs, dating from 1993-1996,   still wrapped in their original sealed plastic packages.

The products they made were To Die.  If you think Lush is great you should see these!

In the meantime, enjoy this video below. 🙂

Here is my (signed by the author Mira Manga) copy of the book, available now at Lush stores near you and online at lush.co.uk or lush.com

heres a video I recorded of a vintage catalog
I made a video of this edition today, here it is..

Here are some photos i took of a few pages of my CTG catalog. I have ten catalogs and will taje photos of each page of all 10. Its going to take a while so i thought id uoad these for now. I got a follower who asked if i was going to do this, so this is in response. Enjoy. If yoi have comments go aheadandpost them here and I’ll try my best to answer them. 

This is the Constantine and Weir/Body Shop Banana conditioner and coconut body butter. Lush remade this on March 2025 to celebrate the pre cosmetics to go company. Constantine and Weir became Cosmetics to Go, which later became Lush. constantine and Weir. Made some products, like some of the body butters, for the body shop back then.

The coconut body butter doesnt smell like coconut. I just wanted to make sure everyone knew that. Its made with coconut however and it makes this a lushious texture.

well i cant seem to add any more pics on this page so ill add more pages to add more catalog pages and i put a link on the bottom to the next page, just click on the title below
