Lush!
Lemon Days and Ginger Beer Bath Bomb: This just smells generically perfumey - like you've wandered into the scented things section in the store. It was vaguely moisturizing, and I didn't notice the smell lingering in my hair, which is okay because ehh. It seems like it might be better in a cool bath, which I will maybe try next.
Edit: hmmmm. I tried it again (warm bath) and it still was associatively perfumey. This time I noticed it also had a smattering of floaty bits, which straddled the line between dirty looking and nice. I think the fact that the bits occupied different planes of the bath didn't help; if it was the same amount or a little less and all the bits floated, it would look a little prettier, maybe. Mostly I just liked the visual of a few pieces floating at the water line along the side, like a border. This time, though, I also noticed it lingering, and liked the lingering scent.
Pleasure Dough Bubble Bar: A very light, natural sort of scent, which is nice but also not very present. Full of bits. It just seemed generally dirty instead of full of bugs, at least? Not horrible, but sort of disconcerting to move around and feel all of the bits. I am thinking that I am not the sort of person who these add-ins are made for, but who really wants a boatload of dried brown things in their bath?
Herbalism Cleanser: I generally don't have too much of a problem with general acne as long as I do basic regular face-cleaning things with any sort of product. But I do get horribly cyst-type acne periodically, and nothing at all seems to help prevent that. Anything I try works for about a month or two, and then just stops, which is what this did. Otherwise, it's okay - it dried out my skin a little the first times I was using it, but now it's fine. It's pretty easy to make it into a paste and get it all over your face. I am actually currently using this and then throwing tea tree oil at the horribly cyst-type acne when it pops up, which helps make that go away decently fast and is working as a combo, but I might as well get something cheaper if I'm going to do that, because I haven't noticed any extra special other benefits from this.
