    That’s so exciting! I absolutely love mine! So yes it did come with one blub but at the time they weren’t including their own brand and for a temporary time were giving customers a non Mathmos blub. They have stopped this now and send their own bulbs with them. Unfortunately the non-Mathmos blub failed kept blowing. So I contacted Mathmos and they very kindly sent me two Mathmos bulbs for free and they are great! I have not had any issues with their bulb and it’s working perfectly and I now have one to spare. ❤

    Keep it out of sunlight, as it will fade. You can re touch the fluid colour if it does, by heating the cap carefully with a hairdryer to soften the glue. Unscrew the cap and add one drop of blue inkjet printer cartridge ink and two drops of magenta inkjet printer cartridge ink.

    Thank you so much for the top tip Richard! Thankfully my room doesn’t get direct sunlight however we do have a 90s Jet Mathmos Lava lamp that originally was purple water with red wax. However over time the water has now turned clear. So we might look into giving that a try! Might be a good idea for a 2nd lava lamp video! ❤

In the moment i am thinking turquise/pink or blue/blue but i would prefer a clear one but there is none apart from plum wax but i dont like plum. Maybe i go with anyone and buy another color in a spare flask later, sometimes there are special fillings.

    Hey! It all depends on what style you like the most! They are pretty much the same price but the Telstar is taller than the Astro. I went for the Astro shape as it was the original shape that they launched in the 1960s plus it was a little bit shorter. But they are both stunning and you will love either of them! ❤ Let me know what you go for!

    @@angel_ash2472 I have a lava lamp on my desk but it’s not a Mathmos, it’s a less expensive brand and I bought a replacement bulb for it and had to wait so long, now the bulb is the right size but still the bottle doesn’t fit and it’s a led lamp so no heat almost. Because of all this I had enough and would like to get one that works out of the box. And I know Mathmos is very nice and great quality so it’s going to be one from them. I like the dark plume lava color and also the blue. Any color is nice actually, it’s just that I picture a blue calming one in my head 😊

    My comment disappeared lol. I was saying that I have a lava lamp already, it’s not a Mathmos, and it’s not working as it should. So now I was thinking ok I just to go Mathmos and order a lamp that has real quality and will work out of the box. I like dark plum if it’s a silver lamp but I also love the blue and violet colors. I think i will buy one of those because these colors will make me feel calm.
