POOLE-based cosmetics giant Lush is giving away 100,000 bath bombs to celebrate World Bath Bomb Day next week.

Shoppers will be able to claim their free bath bomb while stocks last from their nearest Lush store on Wednesday, April 27.

A Lush spokesperson said: “The single layer, fast fizzing bath bomb was invented in 1989 by Mo Constantine in her garden shed.

“Creatively packaged, these new and exciting products turned bath time on its head. Starting with the simple Aqua Sizzler, we’ve come a long way since then.

“When Lush began we saw the birth of such classics as Butterball and Blackberry Bath Bomb, simple in their construction but wonderfully effective.”

Lush has a branch in Bournemouth town centre and also a spa in Poole High Street.

Staff will be on hand to help shoppers navigate their selection of bath bombs available in-store.
