New Ways to Use Bath Bombs Beyond the Tub!

Bath bombs are one of the ultimate self-care luxuries, transforming any bath into a relaxing, spa-like experience. But did you know that bath bombs are more versatile than you might think? Thanks to some amazing tips from our LEWA fam....and my mom! :) we’ve discovered that bath bombs can do so much more than just enhance your bath time.
In this blog, we’re diving into five fresh ways you can use your bath bombs outside of the tub! 
1. Pamper Your Feet with a Luxurious Foot Soak:
Not in the mood for a full bath? No problem! Turn your bath bomb into the star of a soothing foot soak. Simply fill a basin with warm water, drop in your favorite bath bomb, and let it work its magic. The fizzy ingredients will soften the water, while the oils nourish & hydrate your skin, leaving your feet feeling soft and refreshed. It's like giving yourself a mini spa day at home, perfect for when your feet need a little TLC after a long day.
2. Create a Shower Bomb for an Aromatic Boost:
If you’re more of a shower person, you can still enjoy the luxurious scents of a bath bomb! Place one on the floor of your shower, away from the direct stream of water, and let the warm steam dissolve it slowly. The bath bomb will release its calming or energizing scent, depending on your choice, creating a fragrant steam room right in your shower. It’s the perfect way to start or end your day with a boost of aromatherapy. 
3. Freshen Up Your Laundry:
For an added scent boost on laundry day, place a crumbled bath bomb in a small cloth sachet or muslin bag and toss it into the washing machine during the rinse cycle. This will allow the natural oils and fragrances to infuse your clothes with a refreshing scent without leaving behind any non-dissolvable ingredients, like floral petals. Your laundry will emerge smelling clean and vibrant, adding a touch of luxury to your wash! Just make sure you use bath bombs with natural ingredients and without colors that are safe for your fabrics. Yes this sounds amazing and you want to rush to do, but we always suggest testing first.
4. Keep Clothes Fresh with a Drawer Sachet:
Another tip we love is using bath bombs as drawer sachets. Instead of relying on traditional sachets or chemical air fresheners, place an unused bath bomb in your drawers or closet. Its natural fragrance will gently scent your clothes without being overpowering. Plus, it’s a stylish little addition to your dresser! Over time, your clothes will absorb the lovely scent, keeping them smelling fresh.
5. Sprinkle in Your Trash Cans for Freshness:
Here's a tip for keeping your trash cans smelling pleasant! Crumble a bath bomb and sprinkle the pieces in the bottom of your trash can, underneath the liner. The fizzy, fragrant pieces will help neutralize any odors and keep your trash can smelling fresh between cleanings. This is a simple yet effective way to get more mileage out of your bath bombs and maintain a fresh-smelling home.
As you can see, bath bombs aren’t just for baths anymore! Whether you’re freshening up your laundry or turning your shower into a spa-like experience, these versatile little wonders can bring relaxation and freshness into many areas of your daily routine.
