Bath Bombs Safety Guidance
Safety Tips & Information
When used as directed, bath bombs and bath fizzers are completely safe. Skin irritation can occur in some people and eye irritation is expected to occur if splashed in the eyes. Unintentional ingestion in small amounts typically does not cause any unwarranted side-effects however it may cause minor effects such as oral irritation, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Swallowing larger amounts has the potential to cause serious toxicity. Once diluted in water, the ppm (parts per million) is significantly less, and subsequently the effects are less.
Preventative:
Some good tips for ensuring you remain safe:
Always keep bath products out of the reach of children.
Do not allow any of the bath bomb to come directly in contact with eyes or mouth.
Avoid prolonged direct skin contact with the bath bomb (i.e. do not place it on your tummy whilst it fizzes. It feels fund, but isn’t particularly good for you)
Supervise children using these products in their baths.
Never, EVER, consume.
Rinse the skin after bathing with these products.
Do not place bath products near food products.
Corrective:
In case of contact with the eye. Wash the affected area with plenty of clean, warm water (holding the eye open if necessary). Once initially rinsed clean, immediate irritation should cease, but please seek medical advice.
In cases of ingestion (prior to dissolving in a bath), immediately wash and swill mouth out with clean, warm water. Do not swallow the water used to wash the mouth out. Then drink plenty of clean, fresh water. Do not induce vomiting.
In cases of ingestion (after dissolving in a bath), this should present no immediate concerns. However, bath water is never suitable to drink. Make sure that you drink plenty of clean, fresh water. If stomach irritation occurs, seek medical advice.
In cases of direct inhalation of bath bomb (the material itself, not the fragrance it produces). Remove the person into a well-ventilated area with access to fresh air and seek medical advice.
In cases of prolonged direct skin contact resulting in rash, wash the affected area with clean, warm water for at least 10 minutes. If the resulting rash does not dissipate after 24 hours, seek medical advice.
