All about Natural bath bombs,


A relaxing spa experience at home!

A moment of calm, in our busy lives... Isn't that sometimes exactly what we need? And how better to achieve this than with a warm and relaxing bath. And the perfect addition to this wonderful bathing ritual? The natural bath bomb!


View our natural bath bombs here

A natural bath bomb delivers a wonderful bathing experience, a true explosion of scent and colour, and is also good for your skin. Transform your bath time into a relaxing experience. Thanks to the nourishing ingredients, your skin is hydrated and cared for straight after the bathing ritual!

Benefits of our natural bath bombs:

  • Silky-soft and hydrated skin

  • Developed in-house by our lab team

  • Handmade one by one in Utrecht

  • Also very easy to make yourself

  • Fantastic as an original gift

  • Packaged in cardboard, so 100% plastic-free

What are natural bath bombs?

You probably know them… the magical bath products. As soon as they touch the water, they start to fizz, dissolve and transform your bath into a wonderfully scented, relaxing bath moment! These bath bombs are packed with natural ingredients such as sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), citric acid and plant-based oils that nourish your skin and pamper your senses. Unlike many conventional bath bombs, natural bath bombs contain no synthetic fragrances, colourants or preservatives. Our bath bombs are carefully formulated with the finest botanical extracts, essential oils and clay powders.

But… why not conventional bath bombs?

A great many conventional bath bombs contain ingredients that you would rather avoid. Here are a few ingredients you often find in conventional bath bombs and would do well to steer clear of:

Synthetic Fragrances
Often labelled as "fragrance" or "parfum", these are synthetic scents. Many synthetic fragrances can cause allergic reactions and skin irritation.

Parabens
These are preservatives used to extend the shelf life of cosmetic products and to prevent the growth of mould and bacteria. Parabens can disrupt the hormonal balance by behaving like oestrogen in the body. They can also be harmful to the environment because they do not break down easily.

Sulphates (e.g. SLS and SLES)
Sulphates such as sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) and sodium laureth sulphate (SLES) are cleansing and foaming agents widely used in conventional bath bombs. Sulphates can dry out and irritate the skin. They are also harmful to aquatic organisms when they end up in the environment, as they are difficult to break down.

Artificial colourants
Some artificial colourants can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions. They can also contribute to water pollution when they end up in the environment, as they are often not biodegradable.

PEGs (Polyethylene glycols)
The main safety risks of using PEGs in products such as bath bombs relate to the manufacturing process and the by-products it generates.

Phthalates
Phthalates can have endocrine-disrupting effects and lead to various adverse health problems.

Natural bath bombs, free from harmful ingredients

One of the biggest benefits of natural bath bombs is that they are free from synthetic substances and harmful chemicals. Traditional bath products often contain ingredients that can irritate the skin or even pose health risks. Natural bath bombs, by contrast, are made from safe, natural ingredients that are gentle on both your skin and the environment.

DIY BATH BOMB RECIPE

Prefer to get stuck in yourself, or make a bath bomb with your child(ren)? Alongside the ready-made bath bombs and the DIY kit we have of course also put the recipe online. With it you can easily vary things using your own favourite ingredients.

How do you use natural bath bombs?

Using a natural bath bomb is simple and fun! Fill your bath with warm water and then drop the bath bomb in. Enjoy the fizzing effect and the wonderful scents that are released. Relax and let the nourishing ingredients do their work, leaving your skin feeling soft and hydrated.

Get to know the ingredients

Citric acid

INCI: citric acid

About this ingredient
Citric acid is a plant-based acid that occurs naturally in citrus fruits and is fully biodegradable.

Why is it in the bath bomb?
Citric acid reacts with baking soda in water, releasing carbon dioxide gas and creating the fizzing effect. Citric acid also provides a gentle exfoliation for the skin and makes the bathwater slightly acidic, which helps to soften and cleanse the skin.

Baking soda

INCI: Sodium Bicarbonate

About this ingredient
Baking soda, also known as sodium bicarbonate, is a mildly alkaline salt

Why is it in the natural bath bomb?
The main reason baking soda is used in the bath bomb is to create the characteristic fizzing effect. When baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is combined with citric acid and exposed to water, a chemical reaction takes place. This reaction produces carbon dioxide gas, which creates the fizzing and foaming effect that makes bath bombs so popular.

Baking soda is mildly alkaline. This helps to balance the pH value of the bathwater. Baking soda also has cleansing properties. It helps to remove dirt and oil from the skin, leaving your skin feeling clean and fresh after the bathing ritual! In addition, baking soda has a mild exfoliating effect and helps to soothe skin irritation.

SLSA

INCI: Sodium lauryl sulfoacetate

About this ingredient
SLSA is a mild foaming agent derived from coconut oil. Unlike some more aggressive cleansing agents, such as Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), SLSA is far gentler and does not irritate the skin or eyes.

Why is it in the natural bath bomb?
SLSA helps bath bombs create a rich foam when they dissolve in water. This makes it a lovely addition to the bath bombs. Despite its mildness, SLSA still provides effective cleansing by removing oil and dirt from the skin. SLSA ensures the bath bomb cleanses gently without drying out or irritating the skin. This is especially important because baths often last a long time and you do not want your skin to feel dry or irritated afterwards.

White clay

INCI: Kaolin Extract

About this ingredient
White clay is a soft clay that is rich in minerals. It is one of the mildest and most versatile types of clay

Why is it in the natural bath bomb?
White clay has the ability to draw impurities, excess oil and dirt out of the skin. This leaves your skin feeling clean and fresh after bathing. White clay also has a soothing effect on the skin, which is lovely even for the most sensitive skin types! White clay is rich in minerals such as silicon, calcium, magnesium and zinc. These minerals are needed by the skin; they help to repair and maintain a healthy skin barrier.

Sweet almond oil

INCI: Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Seed Oil

About this ingredient
Sweet almond oil is a popular plant-based oil extracted from the seeds of the Sweet Almond tree (Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis). Sweet almond oil contains a lovely blend of fatty acids, primarily oleic acid and linoleic acid, but also palmitic acid and stearic acid. It also contains vitamins E and A.

Why is it in the natural bath bomb?
Thanks to its various fatty acids, the oil can penetrate deep into the skin. This helps to hydrate, nourish and soften the skin for a long time, which is lovely after a bathing ritual! The oil has a softening and soothing effect on the skin, helping to reduce irritation and redness. The oil makes the bathwater silky-soft and creates a true spa experience. It helps to create a noticeable softness on the skin, making the bathing experience even more pleasant.

Witch Hazel (with alcohol)

INCI: Witch Hazel Water, Alcohol

About this ingredient
Witch Hazel (Hamamelis Virginiana) is a shrub that grows naturally in North America and Japan. The leaves, twigs and bark of the shrub are distilled into a water we know as ‘witch hazel’.

Why is it in the natural bath bomb?
In the bath bomb, various dry ingredients such as baking soda, citric acid and clay are mixed together. These dry ingredients need to be bound well in order to create a consistent and stable bath bomb. Witch hazel acts as an effective binding agent by holding the dry ingredients together without adding too much water.

One of the challenges in making bath bombs is managing moisture. Too much moisture can cause an early reaction between baking soda and citric acid. This can make the bath bomb start fizzing before it is in the water. Witch Hazel contains moisture, but in smaller amounts than water, which helps to bind the ingredients. In addition, witch hazel has a mild, liquid consistency that helps to create a smooth texture for the bath bomb. This ensures the bath bomb is firm enough to hold its shape during drying and use, but also falls apart easily when it comes into contact with water. An indispensable addition, then!

Essential oil blend

Various blends

About this ingredient: Essential oils are extracted from plants and have aromatherapeutic properties. For our bath bombs we have formulated 4 new blends that we are so proud of! Curious which ones they are?

  • The lovely, fresh Fresh Balance with Vanilla, Sage and Bergamot. The perfect balance between calming and uplifting

  • The floral, sweet Bombshell, with Rose Geranium, Vanilla and Cardamom. This blend brings out your feminine energy.

  • The purifying Night Night, with Sage, Lavender, Chamomile and Petitgrain, is guaranteed to help you relax.

  • With the fresh and tropical blend Tropical Zest, with Ginger, Coconut, Lime, Lemon, Yuzu and Lemongrass, you will imagine yourself in an exotic place.

And can't you choose? We also have a mix set. A set of four bath bombs in all of the scents mentioned above!

When you make your own bath bomb you can of course add your own favourite scent or blend.

Why is it in the natural bath bomb?
First of all, of course, to add a wonderful scent to your bathing experience! On top of that, every blend or scent has its own characteristics and (aromatherapeutic) benefits. The Night Night, for example, provides ultimate relaxation and the Tropical Zest is a holiday in a jar!

Natural colourant

Various colours

About this ingredient
The colourants we use are 100% natural and made from natural clays and plant powders. The colourants trace their origins to the centuries-old knowledge of the Maya. Thanks to their knowledge of their surroundings and local materials, the Maya knew how to create inorganic-organic hybrid pigments.

Why is it in the natural bath bomb?
To create the beautiful colour of the bath bomb.

Dried flowers

Various flowers

About this ingredient: the dried flowers are 100% natural; for example we have dried Rose petals, Eucalyptus, Chamomile or Lavender.

Why is it in the natural bath bomb? They make the bath bombs look fantastic!

The Perfect Bathing Experience

Will you buy the bath bombs ready-made or make them yourself? Whatever you choose, it's time to treat yourself to the ultimate bathing experience!

Here are a few tips to get the most out of your bath bomb adventure:

  • Set the right mood: Dim the lights, light a few natural candles and put on your favourite calming music.

  • Temperature: Make sure your bathwater is the perfect temperature - not too hot, not too cold.

  • Hydration: Don't forget to keep a glass of water or herbal tea to hand. Stay well hydrated inside and out!

  • Relax: Let your bath bomb work its magic and enjoy… this is your moment of calm!
