Do you love bath bombs as much as we do? If so, then chances are, you may have been wondering how long you\u2019ll be able to keep using them. Indeed, while bath bombs are a truly luxurious and blissful product, they are not always easy to use if we\u2019re in a rush \u2013 which is why it\u2019s well worth considering how long your Lush bath bombs will last and whether they expire with time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After all, Lush is well known for its premium quality bath bombs and use of all organic ingredients; however, this does raise questions about how lush bath bombs work and whether or not they will expire with time. Fortunately, we\u2019re here to help you find out more about this topic, including how to store your bath bombs to ensure you\u2019re getting the most from them without compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First of all, we need to consider the main question of today\u2019s topic: how long do Lush bath bombs last, anyway? Because Lush bath bombs are made from natural organic ingredients, they will inevitably not last forever. However, there are two things we should consider here: how long they will last after opening and how long they will last before they expire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you\u2019ve opened your Lush bath bombs and put them into the water for the first time, you will find that you\u2019ll likely only get a few minutes of use out of the bath bombs. Generally, most Lush bath bombs will continue to work for about 3 to 6 minutes; however, if you cut down your bath bomb before submerging it in the water, you can make the bath bombs last longer by having two halves to dunk into the water. However, if you only submerge part of the bath bomb, you may be able to make a single bath bomb go for several uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unfortunately, yes \u2013 your favorite Lush bath bombs will expire after a while. Indeed, in many cases, Lush bath bombs will expire around six months after they\u2019ve been made. As such, depending on when you purchased or received your Lush bath bombs, you will likely find that they should have a shelf life of around five months. However, over this time, you may find that your bath bombs begin to expire since the ingredients will begin to lose their potency over time. However, if the bath bombs are stored properly, they may be able to last for anywhere up to a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since bath bombs are made with natural ingredients, they will unfortunately expire over time. Some of the key signs that your bath bombs may have expired while in storage could include discoloration, a poor result when submerged in the water, an acrid or \u201cchemically\u201d smell, and slight mold growth on the outside of the bath bomb. If you notice any of these signs, we would advise against using the bath bombs, rather than trying to continue using them,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you want to keep your bath bombs working for as long as possible, then we\u2019d highly recommend that you store them carefully to help prevent this from becoming an issue. Generally speaking, you should always store your bath bombs in their original packaging and follow any specific instructions presented on the package. Furthermore, we recommend keeping bath bombs out of bright sunlight or heat, preferably in a cool, dark cupboard and don\u2019t expose them to moisture (which could cause them to begin reacting prematurely).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
