Bathing with botanical products can be a transforming and enhancing experience that provides numerous skin toning benefits while being gentle on our skin and the environment. The most attractive bath bombs are usually those with bits of oats, seeds, flowers or petals in them.
The presence of a natural product in the bomb reassures us that it will be kind to our skin and smell wonderful and gives us confidence when choosing products online. The most popular are lavender seeds, oats, lemon zest and rose petals.
The tricky bit is fishing all the fiddly bits out of the bottom of the tub when our bath is finished or trying to flush them all down the plug hole. Many people recommend using an old (clean) pop-sock to hold the bomb as it fizzes round the bath which then becomes a sort of “bath-teabag” containing all of the mess but still infusing the bath (and the room) with scent and essential oils.
Like marmalade, some people like bits in their bath bombs and some people don’t and there is definitely a place in the market for both.
