Luvlybubbly Product Safety & Ingredients
Luvlybubbly Product Safety & Ingredients Guide
Welcome Parents! 👋
Your child has brought home something special that they made at a Luvlybubbly party or workshop. Each product has a QR code on the packaging that says "Please scan before use" - that's what brought you to this page.
📋 What You Need to Do:
1. Scroll down to find the product your child has made
2. Read the instructions carefully before use
3. Check the full ingredient list for any known allergies
4. Complete a patch test 24 hours before first use (see How to Patch Test)
You'll find complete information for each product including:
1. Full ingredient list
2. Step-by-step usage instructions
3. Important safety warnings
When NOT to use the product
⚠️ Important: Do Not Use If Your Child Has Sensitivities
Before using any product, check if your child has known sensitivities or allergies to:
- Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda)
- Citric Acid
- Essential oils (citrus oils in particular)
- Any other ingredients listed
If your child has sensitivities to any ingredients, DO NOT USE the product.
⚠️ Safety First - Our Priority
On rare occasions, a child may be allergic to a product or its ingredients. Safety is always our number one priority. That is why we want you to have all this information just in case. While reactions are uncommon, we believe it's essential that you:
- Know all the ingredients
- Understand potential sensitivities
- Complete a patch test before use
- Know what to do if a reaction occurs
We would rather you be over-informed than under-prepared when it comes to your child's well-being.
⚠️ Important: Read Before Use
Every cosmetic product can cause skin reactions. Even products made with gentle, natural ingredients may cause irritation. Every child's skin is different, and sensitivity can develop at any time—even if your child has used similar products before without problems.
We strongly recommend patch testing every product before full use. See our Patch Test Guide below.

🛁 Bath Bombs
⚠️ PATCH TEST REQUIRED
Before first use, complete a patch test 24 hours in advance. See How to Patch Test for full instructions.
About Bath Bombs
Our bath bombs are handmade by children during supervised party activities using cosmetic-grade ingredients from reputable UK suppliers. Where stated, we also use essential oils. Some children may still experience sensitivity.
How to Use
Before Bath:
Clean bath thoroughly (remove all other products)
Fill with warm water (NOT hot)
Test the temperature with your elbow, ensuring the bath is not too hot before your child gets in
During Bath:
Place bath bomb in water
Allow to dissolve completely before child enters
Always supervise your child
Bath surfaces will be slippery—help child in and out
After Bath:
Rinse child's skin thoroughly with clean water
Clean bath immediately to remove any residue
Pat skin dry gently
Apply moisturiser if needed
🛁 Important: Preventing Bath Staining
On very rare occasions, bath bombs or bath sherbet may leave a slight ring around the bath.
To prevent this:
Always ensure the bath is completely clean before use
Remove all soap residue and hair product buildup
Optional: Add bubble bath before placing the bath bomb in the water
Wash the bath out immediately after draining the water
Why staining can happen: Stains around the bath usually appear when the tub isn’t fully clean and there’s a buildup of soap, hair products, or other residue. This buildup creates a film on the surface that colourants and dirt can stick to. Keeping the bathtub clean before use makes staining far less likely.
If staining occurs: If you accidentally forget to wash out the tub and the residue isn't wiping away, don't panic:
Try white vinegar on a cloth
Use isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol
Use a small amount of bleach on a cloth (follow bleach safety instructions)

🧪 Can't Use the Bath Bomb? Try a Science Experiment!
If your child is sensitive to the bath bomb and cannot use it in the bath, don't throw it away! Turn it into a fun learning opportunity.
Teach your child about chemical reactions:
What you'll need:
The bath bomb
A large bowl or container
Warm Water
A safe viewing area (kitchen or outdoors is best)
What to do:
Place the bath bomb in the bowl
Pour water over it slowly
Watch together as it fizzes and bubbles!
What's happening: The sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and citric acid react with water to create carbon dioxide gas - that's what makes all those exciting bubbles! This is the same type of reaction that happens in fizzy drinks.
Learning points to discuss:
Why does it fizz? (Chemical reaction between acid and base)
What are the bubbles made of? (Carbon dioxide gas)
Why does it change colour? (The mica dissolves in the water)
Can you smell the essential oils as they're released?
This way, your child still gets to enjoy their creation and learn something new about science!
🫧 Foaming Bath Bombs
⚠️ PATCH TEST REQUIRED
Before first use, complete a patch test 24 hours in advance. See How to Patch Test for full instructions.
About Foaming Bath Bombs
These work exactly like regular bath bombs but create gentle foam as well as fizz.
How to Use
Follow the same instructions as regular bath bombs (see above).
Additional step: Rinse your child's skin and the bath extra thoroughly after use to remove all foam residue.
Safety Warnings
Same as regular bath bombs (see above), plus:
DO NOT USE if your child has sensitivities or allergies to:
Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda)
Citric Acid
Cocamidopropyl Betaine (foaming agent)
Essential oils (citrus oils)
Mica (cosmetic colourant)
Always patch test before first use.
Ingredients (INCI)
Sodium Bicarbonate
Citric Acid
Aqua (Water)
Cocamidopropyl Betaine (creates the foam)
Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Oil Expressed OR Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Oil Expressed
Mica (Colour)
Note: The label on your child's product will clearly state whether it is a Bath Bomb or Foaming Bath Bomb.

What's happening: The sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and citric acid react with water to create carbon dioxide gas - that's what makes all those exciting bubbles! The Cocamidopropyl Betaine creates the foam on top. This is the same type of reaction that happens in fizzy drinks.
Learning points to discuss:
Why does it fizz? (Chemical reaction between acid and base)
What are the bubbles made of? (Carbon dioxide gas)
Why does it foam? (The foaming agent traps the gas)
Why does it change colour? (The mica dissolves in the water)

🔎 How to Patch Test
Why Patch Test?
A patch test helps identify potential allergic reactions or skin sensitivities before your child uses the full product. Even if your child has never had sensitive skin before, reactions can develop at any time.
When to Patch Test
24 hours before first use
In a well-lit area so you can see any changes
When your child's skin is clean and dry
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Test Sample
Bath bombs/bath sherbet: Break off a small piece (about the size of a pea), dissolve it in a teaspoon of warm water
Soap/shower smoothie: Wet the product and create a small amount of lather with water
Lip balm: Use the product directly as it comes
Step 2: Apply to Test Area
Choose a clean, unbroken area of skin on the inner forearm (about 5cm below the elbow crease)
For lip balm: Apply to the inner arm on the other side of the elbow instead
Apply a small amount (about the size of a 5p coin)
Gently rub it in and allow it to dry
For bath products, leave a thin layer
Step 3: Cover (Optional)
You can cover with a breathable plaster or leave uncovered
Make sure your child doesn't scratch, rub, or wash the area
Step 4: Wait and Observe
Leave the product on the skin for 24 hours
Check the area several times during this period
Your child can bathe/shower but should avoid washing the test area
Step 5: Check for Reactions
Look for any of these signs:
Redness or pink patches
Itching, tingling, or burning sensation
Swelling or raised bumps
Dry, flaky, or peeling skin
Rash or hives
Any discomfort or unusual feeling
Step 6: Interpret Results
If NO reaction occurs:
The product is likely safe to use
However, reactions can still occur with full use, so always supervise
If ANY reaction occurs:
Wash the area immediately with clean water
Do not use the product
Apply a gentle, fragrance-free moisturiser if needed
If the reaction is severe or doesn't improve, contact your GP
Important Notes
A negative patch test doesn't guarantee complete safety—always supervise use
If your child has multiple allergies, eczema, or very sensitive skin, consult your GP before use
Some reactions can be delayed and appear after 24-48 hours
When in doubt, don't use the product
Even a negative patch test doesn't guarantee there won't be a reaction during full use, so always supervise closely.
