More bathtub-related musing

[mrs.jacinthe]

I've been taking a lot of baths lately, because I've gotten obsessed with the lush bath bombs. So, I'm cleaning the bathroom today and when I got to the tub, it looked like I'd been bathing with the entire cast of a las Vegas show. Covered in glitter. Like ... everywhere, all up the sides of the tub, etc. And it was a bitch to get off, too.

Anyone have any recommendations for non-stripper bath bombs? Lol.

I have this problem with the glittery bombs from Lush too. I haven't found a really adequate substitute, so I either clean up the glitter post bath (like right after the tub has drained) or stick to the bubble bars that aren't glittery.

I don't know how they compare to bath bombs because I've never really liked those, but I prefer bubble bath (B&BW usually because I stock up on sale) because it doesn't leave much residue.

OMG glitter in bath bombs is a thing? Who the hell came up with that idea?

Basin and Basin White. They only have stores in Vegas and Disney World, so you'd have to order online. I really like their bath bombs and stock up whenever we go to Vegas or WDW.

Their bamboo charcoal bar soap is fantastic, and I love Dr. Spot for tough laundry stains. I've even used it to remove wine from my carpet.

Have you seen this thread about Lush glitter bombs?   Too funny.

TBM, that's not too far off, although admittedly, I've been afraid to examine the lady bits since I discovered the bathtub glitter. At least it was a festively fall-ish color (rust/orange)?

Why are these a thing? Mrs.j, can you confirm?

So, a glitter vagina?

It's the new glitter pumpkin. Very 2014.

I just checked and there does not appear to be any ongoing glitter residue. I know you could not wait for this update.

FYI - this was the offending bomb:

In retrospect, I guess with a name like sparkler, it should have been obvious that there would be glitter in quantity.
