Bomb Cosmetics Funkadelic Handmade Wrapped Bath & Body Gift Pack [Contains 5-Pieces], 420g Multicolor

After reading some of the reviews written here I felt almost put off, but seeing multiple people complain about the "size" of the bath bombs and someone actually gave the measurement, I used that to measure the bath bombs my fiancee has already and low and behold these Chocolate one's are bigger than the one's she has. So size wasn't a concern, we've had those massive bicarb bombs before, they have a nice smell at first but don't do anything in the bath i.e. poor quality smell in the bath, not enough oils etc to actually "do" anything for your skin. Anyway, this was a gift for my fiancee for her birthday. When it arrived it came just as seen, not torn or broken, oh and as far as flimsy cardboard goes its quite stiff, its glossy card! It was even bundled in the same package with a big thick body building book and other birthday gifts, nothing crushed it or damaged it and that was delivered by Royal Mail in the standard post. People complained that the box was tiny, the bombs are pathetically small, yet I found that if anyone knows "chocolate", they'll know and just from the picture, "fine chocolate" comes in these kind of boxes. I thought it was a perfect imitation of fine chocolate and as such this box size is actually a large for and just to clarify; "fine chocolate" aka the top quality chocolate and not commercial average grade stuff. As soon as my fiancee opened the box she was hit with an intense aroma of chocolate smells, and I have to say it too was immensely enjoyable to get a whiff. They seriously look and smell so good you actually have to prevent yourself from taking a bite! Also a nice touch from cake cases (imitation of) to using real chocolate to decorate by hand. She is thoroughly excited and happy with this gift. Everything and anything I can rate this, 5*, cannot fault it. Wish people would actually review the item and not the delivery problems they have, that's not the products fault, that's the delivery service & handling to blame.

I bought these for my wife for Christmas, as she was always on about having nice things to pamper herself with in the bathroom. After the initial 'they look too good to use' she dropped one in the bath, and had a nice long soak. Afterwards, she remarked that her skin was softer, the room smelled beautiful (her words) and thought they were definitely worth the expense. Obviously these aren't a daily use item, but more of a special occasion. Each one being different has created different results, but now most of the way through them she is wanting more! I'm thinking of getting her the Chocolate ones next. The packaging is great, and I didn't really need to wrap it any further. You can't hide the smell that comes from the box, so if it's a gift they will know what they're getting. The only thing we noticed was that there's no real description of what each bomb is or contains, but in some ways that just adds to the mystery of it all.

These days we have expectations on what a bath bomb is. It's a giant powdery ball, heavy and fills the palm of your hand. Usually they take about 10 minutes to fizzle away, and release glitter, petals, dye and fragrance. These are very similar, but they're a lot more compact. Whereas full sized bath bombs may turn the water bright pink, these will create a subtle pink tinge. Whereas some full sized bath bombs will fill the tub with floating petals, this will release a dozen or so. Whereas full sized bombs will fill your bathroom with an eye-wateringly overpowering smell of Chanel no. 5, these will give a more subtle floral aroma. So, if you're giving them to someone who wants maximum smell and power, then look elsewhere. If you want to give a nice gift to someone who likes more delicate aromas and feelings, or takes smaller baths, then these are a lovely little gift. The gift box is nicely presented, and the individual bath bombs are nicely arranged to feel like a lovely gift. Considering their size, I'd say it was a smidge overpriced for raw materials, but the charge was in line with buying this kind of thing in the high street, so I won't dock it a point for that. the only reason I will dock it a point is that the bombs /are/ rather small... about 20% larger would have been perfect.

Just recieved these bath bomba in the post today - they are meant to be a gift for someone, but I'm seriously considering keeping them! They're absolutely gorgeous, and smell amazing. As other have already said, the size of the bombs was a slight disappointment, but only slight. The product is of a very high quality and is worth every penny. I also had no issue with packaging. The little box of bath bombs was inside another box and securely wrapped up by Amazon before they were delivered to me, so they arrived in perfect condition. However, this may have been because I ordered the bath bombs along with other items, and all of them came together in one large box. I would recommend doing the same if you are going to buy these. It ensures your bath bombs are safely nestled in amongst other items and protective wrapping. But anyway, packaging aside, these bath bombs are a brilliant buy. And I'm very confident the person receiving them is going to love them!

Great Christmas present. Nice scent and added a little luxury to bath time

After reading all of the negative comments on amazon about this product, I would not be suprised if this had put some people off buying these bath bombs. I wasn't put off and more importantly; I knew what to expect from this product. I knew that they would be smaller than your average bath bomb and I also knew that they'd be extremely pretty and smell good enough to eat. Maybe on the product description they should have put something about the size of each individual bath bomb so that customers do not feel deceived into thinking that they are bigger than they are. My bath bombs arrived in perfect condition (which is real praise coming from me because I am a perfectionist and cannot stand it when an item is delivered wih even the slightest of dents, stratches or folds), the box was perfect and also the bombs themselves were perfect. Overall, I am delighted with this item and can't wait to use them, I would recommend them to anyone wishing to indulge themselves and would definitely buy them again!

I have purchased lots of these sets over the years they are a great and impressive gift as they are all wrapped up lovely. However on this occasion they box was a little shabby so I bit disappointed. It won't stop be buying these for all my aunties at Christmas though, just hope they are a little nicer.

I bought it as a gift, my colleague is satisfied.
