How to store bath bombs
Always Wrap The Bath Bombs
Wrapping your bath bombs will help protect them from humidity and keep their freshness intact. You can wrap bath bombs in plastic bags and keep them in your bathroom or any other room in your home so they will be ready when you need them.
Keep Bath Bombs Away From UV Light
You should know that UV light can degrade your bath bomb. If you want your bath bomb to be readily available for first use after buying, shield it from ultraviolet light.
Ultraviolet light can damage many products, not just bath bombs. That's why many drinks come packaged in green or amber-colored high-quality glass. It prevents excess light from penetrating the product and extends shelf life.
Keep Different Bath Bombs Separated
Putting different types of bath bombs in the same container or plastic bags isn't the best idea. Don't mix them, as you don't want the fragrances mingling.
Make Sure That Bath Bombs Are Fully Dried Before Packaging
Before you package your bath bombs in a plastic bag, plastic wrap, or other airtight containers, ensure they are dry. The bath bombs will give off carbon dioxide as they dry, which could cause pressure in the container and cause it to crack.
Store Them In A Cool Place
Look for a cool and dry place in your home to store your bath bombs, ensuring that there is no way for them to absorb moisture. Also, keep them away from direct sunlight.
