Collection: Bath bombs

The Birth Of The Modern Bath Bomb

The late 20th century saw the birth of the bath bomb as we know it today, with the first versions being created in 1989. Mo Constantine, one of the co-founders of a globally recognized bath and body company, is credited with inventing the bath bomb. Initially, it was a way to bring the luxury and benefits of spa treatments into the home.

Explosive Growth

From these humble beginnings, bath bombs have exploded in popularity, becoming a staple in the routines for skincare, wellness, and self-care. What began as a simple product has diversified into various scents, colors, shapes, and sizes, each offering a unique bathing experience.

Bath bombs combine essential oils, mineral salts, plant-based butter, and other natural ingredients, each pivotal in transforming an ordinary bath into a luxurious spa experience. At New Miuz, we meticulously choose each component for its relaxing and beautifying properties and its ethical and sustainable source. 

Here's a closer look at the ingredients behind our bath bombs:

Essential Oils

The core of any bath bomb, these potent oils are extracted from flowers, leaves, stalks, or roots of plants. Known for their therapeutic properties, essential oils such as lavender, chamomile, and eucalyptus promote relaxation, ease stress, and even emotional healing. Our aromatherapist-approved blends are a natural remedy for calming the mind and uplifting the spirit.

Mineral Salts

Rich in essential minerals like magnesium, potassium, and calcium, these salts help detoxify the body, ease muscle tension, and improve circulation. Epsom and Himalayan pink salt are favorites in our bath bombs, providing a mineral-rich soak that leaves the skin feeling soft and rejuvenated.

Plant-Based Butters And Oils

Shea butter, cocoa butter, and coconut oil are nourishing elements that make our bath bombs genuinely indulgent. They moisturize and soften the skin without leaving an oily residue. These natural butters and oils are packed with vitamins and fatty acids, which are vital for maintaining healthy skin.

Baking Soda And Citric Acid

Bath bombs are famous for their fizzy reaction, which comes from baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and citric acid. When dropped in water, these two ingredients react to create delightful effervescent bubbles, dispersing the oils and fragrances evenly throughout the bath water.

Natural Colorants

We use natural colorants like beetroot powder, spirulina, and turmeric to add a splash of color and enhance the sensory experience without using synthetic dyes. These provide gentle hues and additional skin-loving benefits, making every bath bomb a visual and therapeutic treat.

In wellness and skincare, bath bombs bring a calm mind and a healthy body. When dropped in warm bathwater, these effervescent balls of joy make the bathing experience more enjoyable and offer several health benefits. Understanding these benefits can significantly enhance your self-care routine.

Enhanced Skin Care

Bath bombs are infused with natural oils and butter, key ingredients for moisturizing and nourishing the skin. When you soak in a bomb-infused bath, your skin absorbs these enriching ingredients, leaving it feeling soft, supple, and rejuvenated. Unlike traditional soaps and bath products that can strip the skin of its natural oils, bath bombs from New Miuz are formulated to maintain the skin's balance, providing hydration without leaving any unwelcome residue.

Aromatherapy Advantages

Each bath bomb encapsulates the power of aromatherapy. Essential oils have many therapeutic properties and are a cornerstone of our bath bombs. These oils can help reduce stress, alleviate anxiety, and improve sleep quality. For example, a bath bomb with lavender essential oil can soothe the nervous system, preparing you for a restful night's sleep, while one with citrus oils can invigorate the senses and boost your mood.

Detoxification

Bath bombs create an environment that helps detoxify the body. The baking soda, citric acid, and sea salts commonly found in these products work together to cleanse and repair the skin and flush out toxins. The antioxidant properties of natural ingredients help combat the damage caused by free radicals, promoting healthier, glowing skin.

Muscle Relaxation

Soaking in a warm bath enhanced with a bath bomb can significantly alleviate muscle tension. The heat helps relax tight muscles, while the essential oils reduce inflammation and soothe soreness. This makes bath bombs an excellent addition to your recovery routine after a long day or an intense workout.

Promoting A Serene And Peaceful Experience

New Miuz strongly emphasizes crafting products that benefit the body and the mind. The combination of warm water, effervescent textures, enchanting fragrances, and the caress of natural oils offers a multisensory experience that can transport you to blissful relaxation. By engaging multiple senses, bath bombs help reduce mental fatigue and promote emotional well-being.

Essential oils make bath bombs a therapeutic experience. New Miuz understands this deeply, integrating the power of aromatherapy into each bath bomb to ensure every bath is an opportunity for wellness and tranquility.

Choosing The Right Oils

Choosing essential oils in bath bombs is far from random; it’s a deliberate selection to offer specific therapeutic benefits. For example, lavender has calming and relaxing properties, making it an excellent choice for a bath bomb to ease stress and promote a good night's sleep. Meanwhile, eucalyptus and peppermint oils are celebrated for their invigorating and refreshing qualities, perfect for those mornings when you need an extra boost to start your day.

Ethical Sourcing

The essential oils in New Miuz’s bath bombs are sourced with a commitment to ethical and responsible practices. Each oil is extracted from the best quality plants grown without chemicals, ensuring that what goes into your bath is 100% natural. This guarantees the purity and efficacy of the oils and aligns with our family-owned business's dedication to cruelty-free, paraben-free, and ethically sourced products.

Engage The Mind And Body

When a New Miuz bath bomb dissolves in warm water, the essential oils are released into the air, allowing their aromas to envelop the bathroom in a fragrant cloud. This aroma, inhaled throughout your bath, stimulates the olfactory system and can positively affect the limbic system, a part of the brain that supports various functions, including emotion, behavior, and memory. This interaction elucidates how a simple bath can become a profoundly relaxing or energizing experience, depending on the essential oils blend.

Luxurious Skincare

Thanks to their natural properties, the oils mingle with bathwater to create a luxurious soak that can help moisturize and soothe the skin. This holistic approach ensures that your mind, body, and spirit are cared for, echoing New Miuz’s promise of easing stress and fostering a calm mind and a healthy body.

Incorporating bath bombs into self-care routines has become a popular and effective way to enhance relaxation and promote skin health. Bath bombs' therapeutic qualities can significantly benefit the journey toward a calm mind and a healthy body, especially when they are thoughtfully crafted like those by New Miuz.

Aromatherapy At Home

Crafted with care and expertise, New Miuz’s bath bombs are a gateway to an immersive aromatherapeutic experience. Drawing on the principles of aromatherapy, these bath essentials release a plethora of essential oils upon dissolving, which interact with the body to soften and hydrate the skin, enhance mood, ease stress, and aid in relaxation and sleep.

The Hydrating And Softening Effects

For those dedicated to nurturing their skincare, aromatherapy, and overall wellness, integrating New Miuz’s bath bombs into your routine goes beyond the physical. These bath bombs are enriched with 100% natural ingredients, sourced directly from local farms, ensuring that each product brings the purity of nature right into your bathwater. Their formulations are free from parabens, reflecting New Miuz's commitment to ethical and responsible manufacturing.

A Spa-Like Experience

When considering adding bath bombs to your self-care regimen, it's important to recognize their multifaceted benefits. The effervescent release of essential oils purifies the skin and creates an atmosphere of peace and tranquility in your bathroom, turning a simple bath into a spa-like experience. Aromatherapists endorse carefully selected ingredients to promote relaxation and well-being, making these bath bombs a perfect complement to any self-care routine for easing stress.

Personal Touch In Your Self-Care Routine

The handcrafted nature of New Miuz’s products adds a personal touch to your self-care practice. Knowing that each bath bomb was made with love and intention adds an emotional aspect to your relaxation routine, enhancing the overall experience. The variety of scents and ingredients perfectly matches everyone’s needs and preferences, making each bath a personalized retreat.

When embracing the luxurious experience of bath bombs, it's essential to address a critical aspect of their usage: the potential for skin reactions and allergies. Despite bath bombs being a beloved spa-at-home essential, they can sometimes pose challenges for individuals with sensitive skin or specific allergies. Understanding the ingredients and choosing the right bath bomb can make all the difference in ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience.

Bath bombs are typically made from baking soda, citric acid, salts, essential oils, and colorants. These ingredients combine to create the fizzing sensation bath bombs are known for, providing skin benefits and aromatherapy effects. However, these mixtures can trigger skin irritations or allergic reactions for some.

Key Ingredients To Be Aware Of

• Essential Oils: While they're celebrated for their therapeutic properties, some essential oils can be potent and might cause skin irritation in individuals with sensitive skin. If you're prone to allergies or reactions, it's crucial to identify any specific oils that may not agree with you.
• Colorants and Dyes: Synthetic colorants added for aesthetic purposes can sometimes lead to skin irritation. New Miuz bath bombs prioritize natural colorants to minimize this risk. Still, it's always a good idea to be cautious and patch test if you have a history of skin sensitivities.
• Fragrances: Artificial fragrances are among the most common allergens in skincare products. New Miuz utilizes natural aromatherapy scents derived from essential oils and plant extracts, significantly reducing the likelihood of irritation.

At New Miuz, our commitment to creating ethical, natural, and irritant-free products means you can enjoy bath bombs' delightful effervescence without compromising on safety or skin health. With our carefully selected ingredients and aromatherapist-approved blends, we strive to ensure that each bath bomb offers a tranquil and healthful addition to your wellness routine, catering to even the most sensitive skin types.
