Feel free to include discontinued favorites.
My favorite Lush bomb is Butterball. My discontinued favorites are Christmas Party, Bon bomb and Feel Good in the So. Hemisphere bath bombs.
My favorite non-Lush bomb is the Mango Tango bomb from Fantasy Bath. I just bought a couple of these recently and I just love the scent. I like the scent of the pineapple bomb from Me! Bath too.
Also..Has anyone tried the bath bombs from Soak!?? I have been looking at their website and they look pretty good.

I love Big Blue (but I sock it because I think the squishy seaweed floating around is gross), Black Pearl (regardless of the nasty tub ring it leaves), and Christmas Party. Also, I know I've said this a million times, but Uluru was the one that made me go all crazy for it. That scent might be the best thing ever.
Sadly, I have not tried many other non-Lush bombs. However, I will be checking out some of the other suggestions in this discussion thread. I've been dying to try one of the more popular etailers, but there are so many ones out there that look good, I'm having a really hard time deciding.

I hate the seaweed in Big Blue too. The first one I used I decided to just throw the thing in the tub. I knew it had seaweed in it but I was thinking it would only have a bit.. how much seaweed could they possible get in a bath bomb? I was absolutely shocked by the amount of seaweed that came out of that one bomb.. It was pretty gross to look at floating in my bath. I love the scent of Big Blue though.

My favorite Lush bath bomb is Think Pink. I love it and I think I shall die if they stop making it.
I haven't tried a lot of other etailers ... but I like the warm vanilla sugar bomb that Basin makes.

I only use Lush bath bombs as there are just a few companies in France that make them and the others all smell horribly fake. My favourite current bomb is Think Pink (closely followed by Jingle Spells) and my favourite discon is Hot Java.

Honey bee, followed closely by Big Blue. I honestly could live off just these two bombs. I never really 'crave' any other scents.

I also liked christmas party and jingle spells. Avobath is probably the bomb I buy most often, it's great cocktailed with any other fruity scents, and my husband loves that it smells like fruit loops.
My favourite non-Lush bomb would have to be from a little Vancouver shop, I think they're called Open Sundae, they make the most amazing bombs! Some even better than Lush. I love their minty bomb, and they also have ones that smell exactly like birthday cake, nanaimo bars, and marzipan. And they make little bubble bars that look like edible cupcakes, so tempting!

The Me! pineapple bomb has a very real pineapple scent. I find the scent in the water strong but not overpowering.. very pleasant. I just tried the Jamaica Me Crazy bomb from Fantasy Bath and I find that scent a bit too sweet for my tastes.

My favourite Lush bath bombs are Honey Bee, Still Life (boo, its being discontinued) and Haagenbath. I haven't tried bath bombs from anywhere else, as I don't know anywhere that sells them in the United Kingdom.

Fairy Jasmine - masses of glitter, wonderful creamy jasmine scent.
Ne Worry Pas - lovely and creamy water from soya milk. bubbles a bit too, because of this. love violets.
butterball is fab, I haven't tried Sugar Rush yet, as we were running out and I thought we'd better leave them for the customers, but the smell makes my mouth water.
I used to love deep forest atmosphere. no one else did.

My favorite bomb most definitly is the butterball, closely followed by Youki-hi. I just bought a butter be good to me bomb from downtown bath, and it looks REALLY nice. I can't wait to try it and see if it is as good as a butterball.
