What is a bath bomb?
A bath bomb is a fizzy bath-time product made mainly with baking soda and citric acid. When placed in water, these ingredients react and dissolve, releasing fragrance and colour into the bath. Swinging Soaps bath bombs come in a variety of fun shapes, sizes, scents and colour displays.
How do I use a bath bomb?
Fill the bathtub with warm water, unwrap the bath bomb and place it in the water. Watch it fizz and release its colours before enjoying your bath. Avoid contact with the eyes and do not eat or swallow the product. Rinse the bathtub after use.
Is a bath bomb single-use?
Yes. Each bath bomb is intended for one bath. We offer different sizes, including smaller bath bombs for smaller tubs and shorter baths.
How long do bath bombs stay fresh?
For the best fizz, fragrance and colour, we recommend using your bath bombs within six months of purchase. Store them wrapped in a cool, dry place away from moisture and humidity.
What ingredients are used in your bath bombs?
Our standard bath bomb formula includes baking soda, citric acid, SLSA, shea butter, Polysorbate 80, fragrance and colourants. Some designs may also contain cosmetic glitter or additional decorative ingredients.
Ingredients can vary by product, fragrance and design. Always check the ingredient list on the individual product page or packaging before use.
Will the colours stain my bathtub?
We use water-soluble colourants and Polysorbate 80 to help the colours and oils disperse through the water. Rinse the bathtub after use.
Colour or glitter may cling to soap residue, so we recommend starting with a clean tub and rinsing it promptly afterward.
Can children use your bath bombs?
Many of our bath bombs are enjoyed by children with adult supervision. Smaller bath bombs may be a better choice for smaller children’s baths because the colour and fragrance will be less concentrated.
Always read the ingredient list, keep the product away from the eyes and mouth, and stop using it if irritation occurs.
Are your bath bombs suitable for sensitive skin?
Everyone’s skin and fragrance sensitivity are different. Our bath bombs contain fragrance, colourants and SLSA, so we cannot promise that every product will suit every person.
Read the full ingredient list before use. If you have allergies, highly sensitive skin or a medical skin condition, ask an appropriate healthcare professional whether fragranced bath products are suitable for you.
Are your products nut-free?
We cannot describe all Swinging Soaps products as nut-free. Our bath bombs contain shea butter, and some other bath products may contain cocoa butter or different oils and butters.
Please check each product’s ingredient list before use. If you have a serious allergy or need more information about a particular product, contact us before ordering.
Do you test on animals?
Swinging Soaps does not test its finished bath products on animals.
Are your bath bombs vegan friendly?
Our standard bath bomb formula is made without intentionally added animal-derived ingredients. Formulas and decorative ingredients can vary, so please check the individual product listing or contact us if you need information about a specific bath bomb.
