I've finally decided to blog again, and it's a rant! Don't say you weren't warned!

Bath bombs have been around for years, and I've only heard good things about them. They are fun to look at in the bath, they smell good, make your skin feel soft and smooth, relaxing, and easy to make!
Everything good must have a bad, right?
Well, I decided to give it a try. I was gifted a few years ago a Lush Rose Jam bath bomb that smelled heavenly and I don't recall any negatives of my bath bomb experience. However, I recently bought a few bath bombs from various stores here and there...
My skin was COATED IN OIL. The worst was the nape of my neck where it's hard to reach. I had to use sooo much soap to wash off the pound of oil on me!!!
The positives - bath was relaxing and the scent was nice.
Unfortunately, the cons outweigh the pros for me. I do not understand the hype. How do you simply take a bath and towel dry off without feel extremely oily and gross? I couldn't even fathom drying my oily self off with a towel, let alone put on clothes over such grease!
Maybe Lush's bath bombs are better, as I've tried maybe 2 of their bath bombs? And I do not recall this issue, but I'm not sure if I am willing to try it now that I'm completely put off of bath bombs.
Bath bombs: 0 stars, 0/10. Would not bathe in them again
What's your experience with bath bombs?
