This is one strange bath bomb..
I usually have to smell the water when I use Lush bath bombs because I barely smell it in the air, but with this bomb I couldn't smell it in the water but I could lay back and enjoy the aroma in the air. Honey Bee smells absolutely delightful both in store and in my bathtub.

The scent in-store, at home, during the bath and afterward is fantastic!!!! I am a biiiiig smeller. It was also a very calming experience, which it what I was looking for. My bathroom and my skin smell great after wards! It wasn't super moisturizing, but it doesn't claim to be and that's not a feature I was looking for in a bomb.

I was warned about the "after bath cleanup" by my LUSH rep, so it's only fair. Mine had a little of the sand left at the bottom and a yellow ring around the tub. The sand is easy to rinse away and if you get a washrag and lather a bit with a small amount of Dawn and water...it will take it right off easily.

Overall, I was very satisfied!

Very disappointed with this bath bomb. I thought the smell was great but wasn't nearly as moisurising as I'd hoped and it stained the bath. There was also gritty, sand-like residue all over the bath. So after a relaxing soak I had to then scrub out the bath which is obviously less than ideal. Def. wouldn't buy again.

This is far and away my favourite bath bomb by LUSH. The scent is amazing, and lingered in my bathroom for ages, which I didn't mind, since it was so great. I could still smell it a week after I used it.

The fact this bomb turns the bath water yellow is a little offputting, at first, but I liked the scent so much I didn't really care. It didn't stain the tub, either, which was nice. No one wants to scrub their tub after a relaxing bath.

The moisturization factor isn't quite as much as some of LUSH's other bath bombs, but I bought it more for the scent, so that wasn't a huge deal to me. In general, I think LUSH's bath bombs are a little expensive, considering they're one use - I found it too difficult to split it for more than one use - but they're a nice treat when you want to do something special.

I'm not a bath person, but this scent was so gorgeous - soft honey floral - that I had to give it a try. Fizzed up nicely, filled the room with that pretty scent, and felt nice and moisturizing while I was in it. Didn't much care for the gritty sand that accumulated underneath me. The color of the water didn't bother me at all - it's much too fluorescent yellow to look like pee. But UGH the mess! Icky greasy yellow ring around the tub, which was a major downer. Thanks to the other MUA'er who posted about using magic eraser - that was a great timesaver. Won't repurchase.

I love this! With the exception of butterball, the bombs aren't moisturizing at all, I opt for the amazing/yummy scents. This smells so heavenly. It smells like someone dumped a giant bowl of sweet honey into hot water, it smells so good! It scented my entire bathroom for the rest of the day & as soon as someone walked in the house they were able to detect it. It's not sickly sweet, it's just sweet & relaxing. The messes they've made in the tub or the color it turned the water doesn't faze me as long as the scent does the trick & this one does.

I like this one alot....even though I am not as crazy about the honey stuff as most seem to be. The man loves it though. It is favorite and he cant live without it. So it got a * for him. I dont like the color it makes the water...looks like pee...and the rhassoul mud makes a mess of the tub when it drains. Better to use it with a Ma Bar for a great combo and the bubbles help to wash away the mud.

Love this bath bomb! The smell is really nice, it's a sweet honey smell that smells natural and is not overpowering at all. I didn't love the bright yellow bathwater, but I didn't find that it stained my tub or skin so it was not a big deal. I will definitely buy this again because it left my skin soft and smelled divine!

The scent was lovely, I must say. My skin felt nice and soft after wards as well.

Only one thing: the dye! Oh dear lord, the dye! Not only did I have to spend a good 20 minutes after my lovely bath WASHING the tub to try and get the yellow off, but I had to spend some more time scrubbing the yellow patching off of me (which I didn't get all of them, I found another one on my elbow at the airport.... sigh)

I would totally have bought this one again if it wasn't such a pain after wards!

I LOVE the scent of this bath bomb. LUSH has the largest bath bombs of any company out there. I have always preferred sweet smelling scents, and this one delivers. It makes the entire bathroom smell heavenly, but the scent doesn't last long on your skin. It also leaves a ring in the tub but most bath fizzies that are moistruizing seem to do this. This is my favorite bath bomb by Lush. With that being said, I would love for ALL bath fizzies to last the entire time I'm in the bath (yeah, keep dreaming) instead of about 3 minutes. I'm only giving it 3 Lippies because of this.

SO bought this for me...for some bizzare reason.I enjoyed watching it fizz around the bath & yes, it smells great - just like honey....but the bath water ends up looking like pee pee.I was not deterred & enjoyed a honey scented bath - but i couldnt get over the urine-alike water.Two other problems i had were - my knees turned yellow & the bath was stained with yellow around the waterline once i emptied the bath.It looked dodgy.Im sure there are more plesant Lush bath bombs - but the smell from Honey Bee is nice.

THIS IS THE ONLY BATH BOMB @ LUSH THAT IS WORTH BUYING!! I HAVEN'T TRIED IT BY ITSELF BUT WHEN YOU USE IT WITH THE MA BAR BUBBLE SLICE IT IS AMAZING!! IT MADE MY SKIN SOFT AND IT IS VERY HYDRATING. THE URINE COLORED WATER DID NOT BOTHER ME BECUZ I KNEW I WASNT ACTUALLY URINE..(C'MON PEOPLE GROW UP!!) I THOUGHT IT WAS VERY RELAXING AND IT WAS SO SOOTHING TO MY SKIN. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS TO SOMEONE WITH DRY AND ITCHY SKIN!!

It's not a bad product. I love honey things and the smell was pleasant enough but it was a fake honey smell that may be too sickly sweet for some people. This bath bomb fizzed away angrily turning my bath water yellow. It wasn't off-putting as it is very yellow so you know it's not pee. There wasn't much of an aroma once it had melted away but I sat in the bath happily for over an hour. My skin wasn't particularly moisturised but it wasn't dry either. As for the smell, I would get whiffs of honey now and again even the next day so that's subtle enough for me. Sadly, it did leave a nice yellow tinge to my bathtub but it was easily wiped away.

I didn't check any reviews before buying this - I just liked how it smelled at the store and bought it. I might be the only one, but the yellow-colored water just didn't bother me at all. I mean, I knew it came from the (yellow-colored) bath bomb, so why should it gross me out? Anyway, I like sweet scents in general and this one was very nice...like honey, of course, and maybe caramel or toffee as well. I used this with Ma Bar bubble bar and it made for a relaxing bath that smelled nice and sweet but was not overpowering.

Oh, and this didn't stain my tub, but none of the Lush products I've used so far have, which is always nice. :)

The bathtime companion to Honey I Washed The Kids Soap.
I usually loathe sweet, food-like scents... but this scent is completely irresistable, addictive and intoxicating!

I love sitting in a bath of this-- the smell enveloping me, and also wafting through the entire house. In fact, everyone I know who has smelled this has become obsessed with it. My fiance' loves it like crazy. He's the one who picked it out at the Lush shop, and had the first go WITHOUT ME, he was that anxious to use it!

No funky feeling skin after marinating in it for a long while, either. There's nothing I hate more than getting out of a bath feeling parched.

The scent reminds me of the classic toffee candy, Bit-O-Honey, but much nicer!

Soooooo... if you've not used this bomb before and are thinking of giving Lush a go... get your hands on this! Quick! Before I hoard them all to myself. :-)

This was my first experience with a LUSH product. I usually love anything honey-scented and this smelled OK in the store, however when I smelled the bath fizzie pre-fizz when I was about to use it, it was way too sweet-smelling for me an did not smell so much like honey, (more like a sugar candy with some honey in it.) I've never used a bath fizz/bath bomb like this and it was exactly what I expected and actually lasted a lot longer than I'd thought - about 2 or 3 minutes. The things I didn't like about it were that it turned my bath water an icky yellow (as expected), but it also stained my tub with a greenish film. It also did not create as much of an aroma as I thought it would once it started fizzing. I may or may not repurchase - it's a fun gift to give, but I wouldn't purchase it for myself again, at least not this scent.

I loved the scent of this bath bomb in the store and assumed that the skin healing ingredients advertised would be a bit more moisturizing than some of the bombs that were more about scent and pretty colors.

It never occurred to me that I would end up in a bath the color of post-vitamin ingesting pee. It was bright yellow and kind of gritty from the "Rhassoul Mud". I probably could have overlooked the color if it hadn't dried out my skin like it did. I couldn't get moisturizer on fast enough after getting out of the bath. My skin almost felt raw it was so dry. Additionally, this bomb left a greasy yellow ring around the tub.

I'm giving it a 2 for the scent. YMMV, if it doesn't dry out your skin, overlook the water color, and don't mind scrubbing the tub post-bath.

I loved the scent of this bath bomb but the "rassoul mud" just turned into grit at the bottom of my tub while soaking. The pee-colored water wasn't a dealbreaker for me - it was easy to look beyond. I would have really loved this bomb and purchased more except for the fact that my skin was twitchy and itchy for the rest of the night after bathing with this. I thought this was supposed to be gentle and for "sensitive skin"? I don't even have sensitive skin and it still irritated my skin! If it had been moisturizing, I would have purchased again. The smell really was great but also could have been a bit stronger.
