Butterball Bath Bomb

Bouncing, buttery ball.

3.1 oz.
$4.95
Qty:

This product does not contain animal
products of any kind.

Cocoa butter

Chunks of cocoa butter melt in the water and moisturize the skin as you bathe.


Creamy cocoa butter bath.

Baths can dry the skin if they are too hot. Mark's solution was to make a Bomb with creamy cocoa butter to moisturize the skin. The fragrance was one of Mark's first and remains a classic.

The Butterball is unassuming, but it's an all-time favourite with customers and staff alike. It smells of vanilla and delicious custard creams.

Ylang ylang oil

Ylang ylang has a beautiful, sweet floral fragrance.

I was surprised to find that I really like Butterball. I do not like most vanilla scents and hate many of them. This one is great, though. It isn't overly food-y.

The first time I used Butterball, it left terrible tub residue. The second time I used a Butterball, I made sure to run my hand around the tub at the edge of the water where the bits tend to accumulate and used really hot water (but not so hot that it was uncomfortable). The bits melted much better and there was NO tub residue.

This bomb is super moisturizing but not greasy. I have normal to oily skin and don't find that it's too much for me (but I don't let the water touch my face, I use clean water from the faucet for my face).

I had super high hopes for this product. It was the first thing I bought from Lush along with a few other things. All of the scents were much much much too strong. I am very sensitive to smells but I figured that since it was cocoa butter based I could handle it. But sadly I took a ten minute bath and had to rinse off automatically because the smell had gotten to me along with making my skin very red and itchy. I guess I am just too sensitive for Lush bath products since this is the one that was recommended for sensitive skin. ):

    Comments about LUSH Butterball:

    This was my first bath bomb and I loved it! I have a huge tub, and it is a smaller bomb, but still effective. I couldn't believe how soft my skin was when I got out of the tub! Usually after a bath I have to lather on lotion because my skin is so dry.

    Not with this, just relax. It did leave a film around the tub, but that didn't bother me because it cleaned out easily. To me it was worth it for the relaxation I had, and the softness of my skin afterwards. This will definitely be a Lush staple for me!!!

      I paired this with Honey I Washed The Kids soap and the two smelled wonderfully together! The bath bomb left my skin kinda greasy, but once it soaked it my skin felt amazing and the smell wasn't too strong. Gave 4/5 stars only because it didn't change the appearance of my bath. Would deffinitely buy this again though!

      Comments about LUSH Butterball:

      This bath bomb kinda disappointed me. It fizzed up really quickly and left oil droplets on top of the water, which actually wasn't so bad. It's just I like seeing the bomb fizz around my tub, giving off colors. This was extremely moisturizing, a bit greasy, although when I got out of the tub, my skin felt as normal as it does always. This smelled extremely musky, not one of my favorite scents. I would recommend this, just I wouldn't buy this again as there are other bombs I would like to try.

          I love this bomb. It's so small and simple but so effective and wonderful. It makes my skin super soft. Plus, if you're like me and use multiple lush products in each bath, this is perfect so that you're not overwhelmed with several different smells.

          i love this product. it smells amazing and leaves your skin feeling like you dont even need to moisturize. just throw it in your warm tub water and automatically it starts fuzzing away. you can see the chunks of coco butter coming out of the bath bomb. with this bath bomb you dont even need a math melt because it is so moisturizing! i love it!

            I bought it because it seemed like the most basic LUSH bath bomb and since I'm not much of a bath person I decided to start myself off with this. I loved watching it fizz and the smell was very light and subtle, but nice all the same. What felt like a residue had been left on my skin after I got out of the shower I soon realized was the oil from the bath bomb and it soon absorbed fully into my skin. In fact, my skin was soft for the next day or two! I would definitely get this again.

              I used this in a bath cocktail with the Ma Bar.First off, it made the Ma Bar's bubbles last about 10 minutes. When I use the Ma Bar alone, the bubbles can stay for an hour or more! I'm honestly not sure what's so special about it...The smell is good, I'll tell you that.However, it leaves a yellowish tub residue (from the cocoa or shea butter bits that pop out of Butterball).It fizzes away in a minute or less, too.There's nothing for show, and it's not especially hydrating!Sure, I honestly WANTED it to be moisturizing, but no matter how much I tried to convince myself that my body was smooth, still NOTHING. Also, if you don't cocktail this with a bubble bar, the outcome is a plain water bath... NOT FUN.I gave it two stars for the smell (WHICH I BARELY SMELLED INSIDE THE TUB.)Quite disappointing. Plus, [$]?! It's tiny...

                This was actually my first bath bomb that I have tried and I have to say I'm somewhat disappointed. It made my water feel extremely silky, which I liked, but left my skin feeling greasy. I thought that my skin would go back to normal after I dried it with my towel but I had this sticky, oily, greasy feeling with me for the whole night and the next day. On the other hand I absolutely fell in love with the smell, and if there were other products with the same exact smell, I would absolutely buy them!

                  This bath bomb smells great! It smells like vanilla, but has a little something else to it. This is the first bath bomb i've ever used, but i wasn't really impressed. I don't know if it was since i've had it for a month or two, or just the one i got, but when i put it in the water, i could barely smell it at all. Also, it fizzed out in like 2 minutes! The water didn't change color either, but it was moisturizing. It's just nothing special to me.

                        this was my first bath bomb and still my favorite. after a long day it is such a treat to drop it in the tub and stay for awhile. this one smells amazing and the scent lingers.

                        Butterball smells simply delicious! I didnt think much of it when I brought it - I like spicy scents - but Butterball reminds me of a cup of rich, hot chocolate and my favorite blanket. The best part is that the smell isn't overpowering - it leaves a subtle fragrance on your skin. When I dropped it into the tub, it completely fizzed away and made my skin feel like it was covered in velvet. Butterball leaves your skin feeling incredibly soft and supple and subtly fragrant. The only thing bad about Butterball is that it fizzes away too quickly. Overall this bath bomb was a great relaxing experience! I would recommend it to all my friends!
