one of my favorite cocktails is 1/2 sunnyside with a avobath. tonight I took a bath with a 1/4 comforter bar and a blackberry bomb. it was delish and the bath water was this really pretty purple shade.
good luck with your cocktailing, its tons of fun!

Oooh, I love the Blackberry bomb with the Comforter! I like those with Something Wicked bath melt and I love the Comforter with the Black Pearl.
Another winner with the Sunnyside is the You've been Mangoed melt.
And as for Avobath, it is fab with a Pop-in-the-Bath bubble bar, especially a green one. I love the amount of bubble the PITB makes. Or Green Day and a little Elixer are also good with Avobath.
Melts i use a quarter or a third of at a time.

I like to experiment... Melomint/christingly + ma bar is nice for chocolate/mint dessert, or for a tropical fruity bath I love avobath + you've been mangoed + comforter/sunnyside, the different fruity scents go great together! Also, the Kir Royale people have been talking about lately is amazing, a christmas party + comforter, smells like delicious fruity champagne!

Black pearl/comforter and Kir Royale have been my favorites so far. Another great one is avobath and cleanliness (if you still have some).

I'm useless at cocktailing but I do try and match the scents together - so if I'm having bath with Melting Marsmallow Moment I'll use Snow Fairy to wash with and then dust myself down with Candy Fluff.
With an Avobath I might cut off a bit of an Each Peach massage bar to use as a bath melt.

Tell me what you have and I'll tell you what it's good with. I cocktail all the time. I need a balance of moisture, softened water and usually bubbles and I take a lot of baths. I did a really good one the other day:
1/2 a Sunnyside,
a Dream On
a crumble of Avobath
about a third of a Bling Crosby or Karma BBS
It's a great combo that helped me relax and the color was really vibrant. There's just a light patchouli smell.

My very favourite is a Honey Bee, 1/2 a Flosty Gritter and 1/2 a Butterball. It's moisturizing and smells like honey and candy.

So far my favorite cocktail has been half sunnyside and half Temple of Truth. The smell reminds me of the discontinued Uluru ballistic.
I highly reccomend Temple of Truth for cocktailing. The scent is subtle and mixes really well with many other things.

Ooh, you know, I bet that would smell like an uluru. Good to know.

1/2 of a Floating Island with just about anything is divine! Particulary Floating Island+Blackberry Bomb. It smells like a creamy fruit smoothie!

Oh yumm!!! I have got to try this combo. I love Blackberry and Floating Island, never thought to cocktail these two!

I tend to decide by taking two things and holding them together under my nose. I'm also very good at imagining what scents smell like together though, too. I think it's an acquired skill.
My favorite combos are Karma with Honey Bee, Avobath and Big Blue, Tea & Sympath and Green Day, and Marathon and Ol Blue Skies.

The other night I had a bath with Snow Fairy and Lemslip. It was like bathing in pink lemonade :-)

I don't really cocktail since I am afraid of ruining the scents. I do often add a squirt of Dreaming of Summer bath oil in near the end of a bath so my skin is moisturized.

Dreaming of Summer is my favorite bath oil of all time. I am SOOO sad it was discontinued.
I am holding on for dear life to the third of a bottle I have left!LOL!

A fellow lushie!!!
I love a good LUSH cocktail, my favorite combo of all time is an entire Creamy Candy Bubble Bar with half of a Creamy Candy Bath Melt. You can't go wrong since they are the same scent, and I love the smell it leaves lingering on your skin!
I also add Butterball to pretty much anything. That's another favorite product of mine.
