I split it in two, the rainbow makes an odd red bath and blue is like tropical waters. Enough for 3 baths. My daughter and I played in our whirlpool bath for an hour, had the water not gotten cold, we could have enjoyed the bubbles for two hours I am sure. She is sensitive to all other soaps, even baby-washes, lush soaps don't bother her at all.

The scent of Dorothy was pleasant, but it didn't wow me or make my eyes roll back into my head or anything like Karma does. But it was just nice, in my opinion.
The usage was confusing. The site says 3-4 uses, but I don't know if they're testing in a bathtub the size of a bucket or what, but my soaking tub required the entire bar. It's a good-sized tub, but it's not a lap pool or anything. The bar was way too small to do 3 baths, but I did try breaking it into two, which was very crumbly and made my hands all blue. But, by the time the tub reached half-way full, the bubbles were starting to peter out, so I added the other half.
I found it nicely scented and it bubbled quite well in the end. I loved the design/rainbow concept and thought the look of the bar was very cute. I called it my Big Gay Bath (even though I realize they meant Wizard of Oz, but still, it works).
It didn't make the water as silky/moisturizing as I expected. Even with the whole bar, it wasn't anywhere close to as silky as a third of a Karma bar or a quarter of Blue Skies makes the water.
Overall, it's a nice bar. I don't know if I'd buy this one again if I have to use a whole bar for my tub. They should make them a little bigger, in my opinion, for the price. But I might recommend it to someone with a smaller tub or give it as a Pride gift! :)

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
I love this bubble bar! It was a tough decision, but when I first smelled it in the store I decided to purchase Green and Pop In The Bath instead. I ended up ordering Dorothy later online, and I'm glad I went for it because after actually using it, it was so worth the wait! The scent is great, and the water becomes a gorgeous blue color. It's super moisturizing, and the bubbles lasted a really long time. I used about half the bar and that was plenty, so I will get at least one more use out of it too.
I would definitely feel comfortable buying this bubble bar again online, even though I'm pretty picky about citrus scents. I usually love orange, grapefruit, etc., but anything with lemon or lime is a deal breaker unless I can smell the exact product I'll be taking home before I buy it (which in hindsight is why I'm glad I bought some of the "riskier" bubble bars in store, and saved Dorothy for an online purchase even before I had read all the scent descriptions). For reference, I love my Happy Happy Joy Joy conditioner and Figs and Leaves soap as well. Two of my absolute favorite Lush scents.

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
I was sceptical to tyr this one. The way the smell was explained didnt really apeal to me. I have tried almost all the bubble bars and bath bombs in the store, and thought what the helk might as well try it. IM SO SORRY I WAITED SO LONG!!!!! It made more bubbles then I have ever seen in a bath! And the smell was super relazing at the end of my long day. Know it is a regular, I pick up 2 or 3 when I go to the LUSH store. Love, love , LOVE this bubble bar.

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
My favorite things about Dorothy are that it pairs well with any bath bomb in my opinion. The scent of it is subtle enough that it won't disrupt the smell of a stronger soap or bath bomb. And I love how thick the bubbles are in the tub, they last for ages!

I used this as a bubble bath, using only a little at a time, and holy cow it produces a lot of bubbles. and it lasts a long time! you can probably get 3-4 baths out of it. Its not my favorite smell, but it still smells pretty good! but I'm probably not going to get it again.

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
I am a farely new lushie and bought Dorothy on my first trip to a store. The thing that drew me to it was the rainbow, it was so cute, I couldn't walk away from it. I don't know why but when it's in the bath the scent kind of reminds me of medicine, not that it's a bad thing, I actually like it. I split the bar in half and got fairly okay bubbles and amazingly blue water. Although the bubbles didn't last as long as I would have liked them to the color of the water won me over. My only real complaint is that I wish dorothy were a bit bigger.

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
I was in love with this product when I smelt it. It is floral-y but not too floral... a little sweet maybe?? The rainbow makes it ten times better. I always cut this in half to get more use out of my products. This is probably the 2nd Lush product I have ever tried! As a new Lushie... I thinks it is one of my favorite stores. I always overspend on moisturizes, body sprays (especially) and body products. However, since Lush is quite expensive I enjoy every second when I use their products and I do not over spend. I use Lush products occasionally. I love Lush so far and can't wait to make more purchases!!!
I only wish the bubbles lasted a bit longer, but AMAZING product. Thank You!!!!
( I do not have a Lush store very close to me so I ordered this online based on reviews and I was a tad bit hesitant because I am not a big fan of super floral things. I was pleasantly surprised :) )

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
This is the best Lush I've ever smelled so far! It was also my first bubblebar. I didn't get many bubbles but I don't think I was agitating the water enough, I need some training on that, apparently. Nevertheless I lingered in this bath for a looooong time. I suppose the only possible con for this is purely aesthetic-- when the 'rainbow' part of the bubblebar is added, it starts to turn the water a slight murky brown in places, but this will not deter me from buying this product again for myself and others. Bravo, Lush!

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
I chose this bubble bar because it had the cute little rainbow on the top. No, seriously. I don't live near a *convenient* Lush location (the closest is nearly an hour drive) and I didn't how this smelled. I went based on reviews and its cute look.
When it arrived the rainbow had fallen off and the product was much smaller than pictured on the website.
So, like, I was kinda disappointed. But then I opened up the bag and everything changed. It was like the clouds opening up and God coming down and saying 'you are the chosen one'. Ok, so that's a bit of an exaggeration but...I can't stress how much I love this product!
This is by far my favorite bath treat I've tried. (Take that for what it's worth since I'm a relatively new Lushie). Even though it's small I still managed to cut it into fourths and then I used the small bits by hanging one of my old nylons on the tap and running the water over it. Even in fourths this product made a ton of bubbles!
Firstly, this bar smells...beyond, beyond amazing. I can't even. I squealed when the bath was finally finished and I got in. That's how good it smells. I can't describe it exactly. It's not floral, it's not spicy, it's not sweet...I don't know. All I DO know is that it is o-ma-zing.
Secondly, the color in the tub was so beautiful! It looked like the bluest sky in the summertime. Some people have mentioned it is a lighter blue but not so for me. Maybe my tub is smaller, I don't know. I can't imagine how deep the color would be if I used the whole or even half the bar. (Remember mine was only a fourth). The blue color is the kind that makes you smile. I loved it; it instantly put me in a better mood.
I give the scent and color four stars and took away a star just because the product is a bit small and the fact that it doesn't LINGER. Lordy, why can't it LINGER???
They say that Figs and Leaves soap smells just like this bubble bar. I'm totally gonna go for that next - as soon as I finish my Snowcake stockpile. :)
Get this bubble bar! Go now, before you change your mind. Go! :) I love Dorothy!

I bought this item simply because I love the Wizard of Oz and I thought this idea was cute. I was extremely suprised when I received it and saw how great it smelled. It is WONDERFUL. It turned the water a gorgeous blue shade with tons of bubbles. I love this bar!

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
The first time I smelled this bar in the shop, I was intrigued. It's not like I died and went to heaven, but I definitely wanted it. I picked it up and brought it home, and decided to use it today.
This is my second bubble bar experience, and it was amazing. I used half of this bar but I have unbelievably strong water pressure, so I could definitely have used less. It turned the water a pretty blue color - not technicolor blue (ha!) but more of a faint watercolor blue. The bubbles lasted more than an hour and a half.
The thing that makes this bar great is the fragrance. It is truly unique, and yet I feel like I've smelled it before, somewhere. It has an exotic yet familiar feel to it, which is probably from the ylang ylang. It definitely smelled different than it did in the store - in a good way.
The fragrance isn't floral, really; it isn't herbal, it isn't sweet, and it isn't earthy. I guess that means it really is from somewhere over the rainbow :).
Overall, I would recommend this very much.

Have yourself a Bath Cocktail today! You won't reget it. Pair Dorothy with an Avobath Bomb (OR even the Twilight Bomb) and wash up with Figs and Leaves Soap.

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
Every time I smell this bubble bar I pretty much have to clench my jaws shut so I don't eat it.
This is one of the best things I have ever smelled. Ever. In all my 25 years on this planet. I cannot believe how amazing the Dorothy bar smells. It's unfair. I would marry this scent. I would have its babies. My husband is a little put off by this, but it's true.
My biggest disappointment with this is that there are no other LUSH products that smell like the Dorothy. I NEED Dorothy soap. The scent this thing produces... oh man. It's like an explosion of joy in your nose.
The problems with this bubble bar include: the bubbles don't last long at all, the scent doesn't stick to your skin (woe, WOE!), and you can't eat it.
This bubble bar turns the water dark blue and it's so pretty and so relaxing and holy cow, that smell. But I prefer the scent in bubble bar form, because once it's dispersed in the bath it's not as strong or as delicious.
Please LUSH. Make more Dorothy scented products that last on your skin. In the meantime, I'm going to start lining the wall of my house with Dorothy. My house is going to smell AMAZING.

Comments about Dorothy bubble bar:
I traveled a far distance to stock up on Lush products and out of a bag full of bombs and bars, I could not stop smelling this. It smells almost too irresistible to use! Like a fig and an orange merged and created this amazing smell. After a bad day, I needed something to catapult me to a sunny disposition and figured it was time to give this thing a shot. I broke the bar in half and got a tub FULL of fragrant bubbles! It worked its wicked (witch) ways and snapped me out of my funk almost immediately. My only complaints are that the smell didn't seem to last as long as I'd like in the tub, and YOU WILL WANT TO EAT IT. And it is very very hard to refrain from that. Other than that, I will be adding this to my Lush rotation! Such a staple!
