Did you buy some bath bombs and did they cost you a fortune? Some people split them in half to use them more than once. This way you can indulge in relaxing baths and save money. This article will teach you how to properly divide them in half and also how to store them.
Steps
Step 1. Get a plastic container or tub, plastic bags, a flat head screwdriver, a hammer or mallet, a pair of scissors and a cutting board
The size of the container depends on how many bath bombs you have.
Step 2. Take a bath bomb and carefully tuck it into the bottom of an airtight bag
Step 3. Place the bomb on the cutting board
Step 4. See if you can find a groove in the bath bomb, which is a jagged line that allows you to split it easily
Step 5. Take the flathead screwdriver and the hammer
Step 6. Insert the tip of the screwdriver into the groove of the bath bomb, making sure it does not move
Step 7. Hit the top of the screwdriver with the hammer
Do this until the bomb has completely split in half.
Step 8. Place each half of the bath bomb in an airtight bag, tie it tightly around the bath bomb and cut off any excess with a pair of scissors
Step 9. Store the bag in a plastic container or tray
Step 10. Repeat until you have split all the bath bombs in half
Step 11. Voila
At this point you will have divided all the bath bombs perfectly in half, so each of them can be used twice. Keep the plastic container in a drawer or bathroom cabinet.
Step 12. Whenever you want to bathe, fill the tub, open the container, take the half you want to use, cut the bag that contains it just below the knot and that's it
With this method you will avoid leaving bomb residues everywhere. Plus, they won't be exposed to heat or water, so they'll last much longer.
Advice
- Make sure you handle bath bombs with dry hands.
- Be careful not to hit your fingers with the hammer.
- If you don't have a screwdriver, you can use a knife, but be careful!
- Keep the container out of the reach of pets and children.
- Do not put the bath bomb near your mouth or eyes.
