Yes, it is that time again. Claire is feeling low-key-stressed so she submerges herself in water. In actual fact, normally I get to a stage a high-key-stress before getting into the tub - this time, I only have access to a bath for 2 more weeks (due to moving... for the third time in a year) so I thought I'd make the most of my local Lush.
A while ago I spotted Metamorphosis and asked the member of staff to show us what it did (she gave us pick of the store). Now... I love the smell of this bath bomb (my bathroom and skin slightly smell of that lovely concoction of scents). The wow-factor was less impressive with this one. Which leads me to the questions: is that always an imperative for a successful bath bomb? Does it have to look absolutely beautiful, or can the warmth and smells lull you to a sense of happiness only a bath can achieve?
The fact that I would definitely buy Metamorphosis again, says "no, the prettiness doesn't matter", but I loved the smell and that's more important to me when I have my eyes closed or my nose in a book (which happened to be this sexy, sunny tome recommended to me by Hannah). I do like my baths to sparkle though, so I wouldn't necessarily always reach for Metamorphosis in times of stress.
However, maybe the name of this bath bomb, and it's understated transformation into the beautiful smelling waters I submersed myself in are metaphorical for the changes happening in my life. They feel big, and sometimes kind of scary and overpowering. But hey're not actually that big or scary at all - they're just something that will end up being nice and sweet-smelling and comforting. ♡
It's funny, Lush bath bombs always seem to coincide so beautifully with what's happening with my life...
