Still Life is one of a series of bath bombs that were inspired by famous works of art. In this case, Lush have recreated Van Gogh’s famous Sunflowers painting in ballistic form, a feat that they have succeeded in doing.
Admittedly, when I purchased a handful of these beauties online, it was only because they were part of the June 2013 retro range. However, once they had arrived, I was instantly intrigued by their citrusy smell and beautiful flower design.
With a beautiful selection of citrus essential oils like bergamot, lemon and sweet wild orange, the fragrance of Still Life is light and uplifting. It explodes in the bath, leaving the water bright yellow, and releases both sunflower and marigold petals, which swirl around the tub while you bathe. It has a citrus scent which fills your bathroom and leaves you invigorated and more awake.
Lush have added lemon oil and sweet wild orange oil which moisturises and tones your skin. These ingredients, along with Bergamot oil, help to awaken the senses and refresh the mind. This is a great bath bomb to use before a long day at work, or after a tiring day at the beach.
I was really hoping that Still Life would be as close a replacement to The Enchanter as possible. And there was a small part of me that was a tad disappointed when I realised that this would not be the case. However, Still Life is still a brilliant bath bomb, and one that I'll be stocking up on before Lush remove it from their site.
This is a sunny, uplifting bath bomb that will be a great accompaniment during a, hopefully, hot summer. For those that don't like mess, it may be worth removing the flower petals before you get in the bath. However, I found that they floated to the bottom during the experience, and were very easy to removed once the water had been drained.
