On March 29, 1989, a day after Stefani Germanotta turned 3, the Lush bath bomb was born in a garden shed in England. Today, it turns 30. Happy birthday, Bath Bomb!!!! In celebration of its Dirty 30, Lush decided to drop 54 new bath bombs — one for every year the bath bomb has existed plus 24 more for funsies. It’s an impressive mix of new-new fizzers, and oldies but goodies that were resurrected from the archives and given shiny, new outfits.
