What the AI looks for in Bath Bombs
- Fizz base
- The base should be sodium bicarbonate plus citric acid; skin-softening oils or butters are a plus. This reaction is what makes a bath bomb fizz. Added oils make it more than a novelty.
- Colorants and glitter
- Prefer no glitter and moderate dye. Heavy dye can stain grout and acrylic tubs, and glitter sticks to skin and drains.
- Freshness
- Bombs should be firm and individually wrapped. Humidity starts the reaction early, which leaves you with weak fizz and a crumbly bomb.
Brands that matter
- Da Bomb: Fizzers with a hidden surprise, popular as gifts.
- Dr Teal's: Epsom salt bath bombs for a more relaxing, less novelty soak.
What to avoid
- Glitter bombs
- Unwrapped bulk bombs that may have absorbed moisture
- Heavily scented bombs for young children
