Why It Works: Questions & Answers About Mom Bomb

FAQ: How do I clean my tub after using a Mom Bomb bath bomb?

Why does it look like my tub is stained after a bath?

What you’re seeing isn’t a stain—it’s mica residue. Our bath bombs use all-natural mica for color instead of synthetic dyes that can absorb into your skin and disrupt your hormones. Many dyes on the market are linked to issues like anxiety and fertility challenges. We believe it’s better for color to go down the drain than into your body.

Sometimes mica particles cling to leftover soap film, bath oils, or conditioner residue in your tub, which makes it look like a stain. A quick wipe removes it completely.

What’s the fastest way to clean it?
  1. Rinse the tub immediately after your bath with warm water.
  2. Wipe with a sponge or cloth using one of these everyday cleaners:
    • Dish soap + warm water
    • Baking soda paste (scrub gently, then rinse)
    • White vinegar spray (let sit for 5–10 minutes, then wipe)
    • Magic eraser for stubborn spots
    • Rubbing alcohol on a soft cloth for tough residue
How can I prevent mica from sticking in the first place?

Keep your tub free of soap scum and rinse it down after each use. A clean surface means mica will wash away with the water instead of clinging.

Do I need to rinse off after using a bath bomb?

No need to rinse off, though you can if you prefer. Our bath bombs leave skin soft and nourished without harsh residues.

Can I use bath bombs if I have sensitive skin or frequent UTIs?

Yes! Choose fragrance-free or gentle options designed specifically for sensitive skin to avoid irritation.

What’s the difference between bath bombs and bath salts?

Bath bombs fizz and offer sensory experiences with colors and scents, while bath salts like Epsom and magnesium salts deeply relax muscles and soothe stress.

How should I store my bath bombs and do they expire?

Store bath bombs in a cool, dry place. For maximum freshness and fizz, use within 12 months.

Are your bath products safe for children and during pregnancy?

Our gentle formulas are typically safe for pregnancy and children over 3 years old. Always consult a healthcare provider if you have specific health concerns.

Do your bath bombs contain any allergens or animal-derived ingredients?

We clearly label all ingredients. Our products are vegan, cruelty-free, and free from common allergens like dairy and gluten.

Will bath bombs stain my tub or clog my drain?

Our bath bombs use non-staining colors and conflict-free mica and kaolin clays, making cleanup easy without risk to your plumbing.

What if I find bath bombs overwhelming and can't relax?

Try half a bath bomb or a milder scent. Set a calming ambiance with soft music or candles to help ease anxiety.

How do I use a bath bomb—just drop it in?

Yes! Simply unwrap, drop in warm water, and enjoy the fizz. You can break them up for multiple uses.

What makes your bath bombs different from others?

Reframing Self-Care: Your Questions Answered

Q: Why do you call it "survival care" instead of "self-care"?

Why Moms Love Coconut Lime: FAQs

Q: What does the Coconut Lime bath bomb smell like?

A: Yes! Like all Mom Bomb products, it’s crafted with clean, all-natural ingredients and essential oils—no artificial fragrances, dyes, or hormone disruptors.

A: Absolutely. 100% of profits from every Mom Bomb purchase goes to our nonprofit, supporting moms in need with food, transportation, childcare, and more.

Q: Why should I care about synthetic fragrances in my self-care products?

A: Because your airspace matters, mama. Synthetic fragrances aren't just "smelly nice"—they’re often made with petrochemicals that can irritate your lungs, disrupt your hormones, and even harm the environment. The word “fragrance” on a label can hide hundreds of mystery chemicals, and most brands aren’t required to tell you what’s actually inside.

Let’s break it down:

  • Respiratory reactions: 25% of people with asthma report fragrance sensitivity. So do nearly 1 in 5 people overall.
  • Hormone issues: Ingredients like phthalates (common in fragrance blends) have been linked to fertility challenges and developmental issues.
  • Environmental impact: Most synthetic fragrance chemicals are petroleum-based and end up polluting waterways.

Even “unscented” products may use masking fragrance. That’s why you want fragrance-free—and that’s why Mom Bomb will never include synthetic scents in any of our products.

Our commitment is simple: Clean ingredients. No artificial dyes or fragrances. Just essential oils and plant-based love. Because your bath should feel like a hug—not a chemistry experiment.

And remember: Every Mom Bomb purchase helps another mom in crisis. That’s real self-care, with real impact.
