Of course, when the Halloween range came out with the new edition of the Pumpkin bath bomb, the first bath I had with this range had to be that with the Sparkly Pumpkin bubble bar.
With a bright orange bar covered in lots of gold glitter, this bar turns the water a beautiful, deep orange shade with gold flecks of sparkle. The bar itself looks like a pumpkin with the stem made from a cinnamon stick and screams Autumn. The orange colour of the water is very warming and welcoming with mountains of soft bubbles.
The scent shares itself with an older seasonal product, Mr Punch soap, that can only now be purchased within the Lush Kitchen. From first impressions, I assumed that the product would have a somewhat earthy scent, being a pumpkin of course and perhaps a hint of cinnamon from the cinnamon stick decoration. However, I was pleasantly surprised that the product smelt fruity and fresh. Scented with juniper berry, lime oil and grapefruit oil, this bar is zesty yet not overpowering with the scent apparent through the bath yet not apparent on the skin after the bath.
Juniper berry is antiseptic making it a great addition to the bar and is good for oily and acne prone skin. It carries a woody and refreshing scent. Lime oil is also known as a good cleanser, removing dead skin cells as it contains vitamin C which can also be used as an antiseptic. It also stimulates blood flow which can help ease aches. Vitamin C can also help the skin protect itself again UV rays. As well as these, grapefruit oil is also used as an antiseptic for cleansing and brightening the skin.
The bar is big enough to be generous enough for two or three very bubbly baths and although the bar features an awful lot of glitter, it is surprisingly easy to clean the bath after use. The scent of the bar doesn't stay with you throughout the day but does scent the bath for the entirety of the bath and after the water has drained away, the scent stays within the air for a little longer.
Overal, I believe that this would be perfect for those who enjoy the Autumn and like fresh, zesty scents. The bar is well worth its money and offers a brilliant scent that many would find difficult to turn down, especially the great presentation of a little pumpkin.
