Bubbling bath bombs - purpose, composition, application options

Bath bombs: what are they, should I use them?

Bombs usually look like spheres of different colors, slightly rough to the touch. The fun begins when this sphere falls into the water. Plumbing, and in front of us is a mysterious seething geyser!

Using such a thing, to put it mildly, is pleasant - after the first use, the skin is matte, smooth to the touch, looks healthy, and you feel cheerful and fresh PHOTO: diy.ru

Hissing and seething occurs due to a chemical reaction associated with the interaction of the components included in the composition. The main source of the geyser’s “work” is citric acid and baking soda. The bomb falls into the water, gets wet and a seething process begins. At this time, it feels like you are in a hot tub.

Water is also softened due to the composition PHOTO: vannayasovety.ru

Since the filling of the ball can be different, the aroma of lemon, black currant, chocolate, tropical fruit or pine forest will be heard around.

There can be many fillers, both essential and cosmetic. Everyone will definitely play their assigned role. If you want to lie down in the bath and relax, the bomb will be able to make sure that after complete relaxation your body will feel a new charge of strength.

Types of geyser in the bath and its capabilities

As you already understand, bath bombs are not just different in shape and color, they differ in composition and direction of action. Let's get acquainted with their capabilities.

Bombs without foreign additives

As extraneous additives we mean everything that goes beyond the basic composition. Geysers, which do not have additional additives in their consistency, can be used by allergy sufferers and children. They are distinguished by their snow-white color and the absence of oils, flavors and dyes.

Balls with essential oils

Essential oils are known for their targeted effects. Each substance has its own pronounced effect. Various active ingredients are specially added to the balls to achieve a specific effect. And if you want velvety skin, then oil in the geyser is a must.

There can never be too many bombs PHOTO: vannayasovety.ru

Foam bombs

The foam components will create a hissing and bubbling whirlpool in the bath. It looks beautiful, and judging by the sensations, it seems that the body is enveloped in tenderness and care.

Fizzing bath bombs in two ways

Effervescent balls can be made in two ways: wet and dry. Dry method - compact the prepared mixture into a mold and allow time to harden.

Wet - add a couple of sprays of water from a spray bottle to the described scheme.

Whatever method you choose, the mass should crumble and stick together well.

Place the finished mixture in molds and leave to dry for half an hour. Then remove the bombs from the mold and leave to dry for a day. The finished pops can be wrapped in cling film and stored in a cool place, but make sure that they do not get damp.

The shapes of the pops can be made in any way: heart, star, leaf, barrel, flower. All this depends on what molds are available.

Benefit or harm: let's talk about the pros and cons

The question of whether these products are beneficial or harmful to the body should be raised clearly. Our own health is important to us! Therefore, let’s discuss whether bath bombs have any disadvantages, compare them with the advantages, what if this invention is completely dangerous?

Benefit:

• with the help of soda, the acid-base balance is restored, metabolism at the cellular level is normalized, water is softened;
• due to citric acid, toxins and other nasty things are removed from the skin;
• the action of sea salt causes exfoliation and activation of protective processes due to a set of minerals. Elasticity is gained;
• Cosmetic and essential oils help nourish and soften the skin, at the same time influencing our mood with scents.

Now let's switch to harm:

• if the composition contains flavorings that only enhance the smell of oils, then you should be aware that this is a petroleum product that can cause allergies or skin irritation;
• dyes give a beautiful foam, but some of these substances still get under the skin, which is clearly not useful;
• sometimes the composition contains glitter - this is definitely an unsafe product for the skin and the environment.

We weigh all the pros and cons, deciding whether such a product is worth attention. If you stand for naturalness, then it is doubtful that you would add a harmful dye or some kind of flavoring to the geyser with your own hands. Therefore, most likely, your bomb will contain only useful components.

Camouflage and options for using bombs[edit]

All bombs described in this Guide have a unique feature. They can be safely produced and stored without arousing suspicion even during a thorough search of your premises. You can safely go out into the street with these bombs - no inspection will be able to make any claims against you.

Moreover, if the listed manufacturing instructions are strictly followed, in case of danger of exposure, a terrorist will be able to take a bite from the finished explosive, and then eat this piece, and without any special consequences for his health. In case of special need, the explosive device can be completely eliminated by eating it. A container of plastic explosives in this case can be used as a headgear.

Unfortunately, as our regular customers report, this feature of the described explosive devices also includes an increased likelihood of disrupting terrorist attacks.
Many terrorists, under conditions of increased stress, are unable to stop their efforts to disguise an explosive device. [td]Terrorist Kamikaze Disclaimer

How to choose a bomb - 6 important parameters

• Hypoallergenic. Check that the product does not contain substances that cause allergic irritation. If you are buying a bomb with one or another ingredient for the first time, break off a small piece, place it in a small container and put your hand in water for a few minutes to check the reaction.
• Naturalness. Since warm water increases metabolism through the skin, it is better if the composition does not contain artificial components, because these are potential carcinogens.
• No dyes or glitter. It is unlikely that you will be pleased with the need for unscheduled cleaning when colored stains will remain on the walls of the bathroom, and even on your body. Glitter does not dissolve in water, is washed down the drain unchanged and, ultimately, harms the environment.
• Trusted brand. Don't buy cheap "noname" bombs, which are usually sold in supermarkets and inexpensive cosmetic stores. Choose products from manufacturers who are responsible for the quality of the personal image of the brand founder.
• Freshness. Pay attention to the production date of the product - the “age” of the bomb should not be more than three months.
• Package. Its task is to provide convenient and safe storage. And if you are buying a bomb as a gift, the packaging should be stylish and beautiful.

Directions for use: how to use the geyser

The only thing you need to do is put the ball in the water. All its components immediately react with the liquid, and we observe a kind of whirlpool with hissing and a beautiful coloring of the water, if such an element is present in the cosmetic product.

This hissing is due to the interaction of water with soda and citric acid.

Use the product as follows:

1. first take a shower without scrub;
2. fill the bathtub with warm water and admire the process of dissolving the bomb;
3. as soon as the hissing is over, you can lower yourself into the water;
4. the hair is washed with shampoo to avoid excess amounts of essential oil;
5. the total stay in such a bath should not exceed 20 minutes.

Attention! Pregnant, breastfeeding women and people with allergies should be careful and choose products without dyes or fragrances.

Benefits of bombs

There are a number of positive qualities in these products. They are:

Using natural ingredients. For example, several types of sea salt are used to create DIY bath salt bombs. This substance has an antiseptic effect and allows you to get rid of dead skin cells of the epidermis.

Hypoallergenic components. When making simple DIY bath bombs, she uses a minimum of dyes and irritants. These products can be used for bathing small children and the elderly.

Minimum cost. The production of these products does not require large financial investments. Soda ash, sea salt and cosmetic oils are used as a base.

DIY cooking instructions: some simple recipes for beauty and pleasure

Before we start studying the recipe, we will prepare the equipment suitable for the job. We will need a kitchen scale to weigh the ingredients, a large container where the mixing process will take place, a spray bottle and a fine sieve. For protective equipment, we acquire latex gloves, eye protection, and a gauze bandage.

Don't forget about suitable molds. This could be yogurt cups, ice trays, any half of a sphere like a Kinder Surprise egg PHOTO: ru.aliexpress.com

The main ingredients are baking soda and citric acid. These components are easy to obtain. You can take ready-made store-bought dyes, as well as natural ones, for example, beet juice, cocoa powder or coffee.

It turns out impressive PHOTO: zolotoy.ru

Any recipe assumes that all components in the access area are fully prepared. If you have a blender, the work will go faster PHOTO: hometocome.com

First, the soda and acid are ground in a blender, and then the dry filler from the recipe. Let's watch the proportions! We need the consistency of wet sand, which has adhesive properties. If the mixture is crumbly, add a little oil.

When the composition is ready, take a mold and compact the mixture into it. All that remains is to dry the product in the sun, radiator or on the windowsill for 24 hours. Remove the finished product carefully. You can package it beautifully, give it as a gift, or use it right away.

We offer several simple and easy recipes for creating a miracle geyser at home.

Recipe 1: with tea tree and lemon essential oil

We buy 300 g of baking soda, and with it 150 g of citric acid. We also need 5 ml each of tea tree and lemon essential oils, 5 ml of any natural oil, yellow or green dye.

Grind the soda and acid and mix them in one bowl. Add essential oils and regular oils a little at a time. It is better to immediately mix lemon oil with regular oil, as it can cause fizzing.

Important! Aromatic and essential oils are not used at the same time.

If the balls are supposed to come in two colors, then you need to separate the mixture and paint each part in its own shade until the final combination into one shape. The dye in liquid form is added drop by drop, and the whole mass is immediately mixed. If the paint is powder, it is added in small doses until the desired shade is obtained.

Add a little water from a spray bottle without ceasing to stir. The resulting substance should remain crumbly, but nevertheless be squeezable in the hand. You can compact the composition into a mold. If two spheres are prepared, they are simply connected together without moving them. After a few minutes, you can carefully remove the ball from the mold and put it away to dry.

Recipe 2: lavender geyser with sea salt

You have already read the basic recipe and know how to create a bath fizz step by step.

Let's now try taking 18-20 drops of lavender oil, a tablespoon of dried lavender, the same amount of sea salt and a couple of tablespoons of jojoba oil PHOTO: hometocome.com

Lilac dye will make the bomb perfect, and jojoba oil will have a wonderful effect on your skin.

Recipe 3: aromatic cocoa with the scent of roses

It is better to immediately make this romantic-smelling product in the shape of a heart. To create, you will need 50 ml of cocoa butter and 15 drops of rose oil, 5-7 drops of ylang-ylang oil. A delicate shade of pink dye will add a flair of romance.

Recipe 4: Honey Bomb

You can also make a gentle and pleasant cosmetic product with a skin renewal effect with your own hands. Take 15 drops of lemongrass oil, a little solid honey, and a ground handful of oatmeal, which will make the skin softer. Otherwise, the recipe repeats all the steps of the usual creation of fizz.

To help Kamikaze Terrorists[edit]

The problems described at the end of the previous section are completely absent from the Kamikaze Terrorist. On the contrary, the ability to “eat” a ready-made bomb allows one to bring a virtually undetectable explosive device to the site of a terrorist attack. A terrorist can eat an explosive at a safe house and only take the detonator with him on the mission! Of course, introducing a detonator into the stomach presents certain difficulties. Swallowing a detonator is rarely effective, since it is difficult to feel the exact location of the detonator in the stomach through the abdominal walls (in order to then press the button). The most effective way, according to our regular customers, is to use a samurai sword to create access to the explosive located in the stomach. In addition, with this method it is possible to use more reliable “wick” type detonators.

Absurdity draws the attention of our clients to the need to commit a terrorist attack within the shortest possible time after absorbing the explosive. Numerous experiments have shown that if the explosive has passed through the gastrointestinal tract, then the blasting characteristics of the explosive decrease. In this regard, to achieve a comparable explosive effect, 2-3 times more explosive is required than in the “gastric” version. On the other hand, access to the explosive is greatly facilitated, since the detonator can be inserted directly into the rectum.

With the correct selection of the explosive composition, it does not explode immediately, but creates a metastable quasi-thermonuclear explosion, giving the kamikaze terrorist jet speed. Products from the legume family create particularly good and powerful jet thrust. The high explosive is loaded into the stomach in the manner described above after most of the reactant has reached the rectum.

How to use a bath bomb without ruining anything

Basic rules:

• Before your bath, take a shower to cleanse your skin and ensure active penetration of beneficial substances into the cells.
• Fill up with water at a comfortable temperature and place the bomb in the bath.
• Wait until it completely dissolves and lie down.
• Bath time is up to 20–30 minutes.
• At the slightest sign of weakness, increased blood pressure, or an allergic reaction, rinse your body with water and get out of the bath.

Bombs with petals can be pre-placed in a linen bag. Then, when dissolved, the beneficial substances will penetrate into the water, and the petals will remain inside the bag and will not clog the drain.
